Definitely a positive step
Although it was not reflected in the stock price, it did prompt three Seeking Alpha articles which were all bullish on Amarin long term. Hopefully a deal for Europe is also in the works. Japan is not a possibility as I believe that Amarin does not own the rights for Japan. I also wonder about the timing of this announcement. It came right before the expiration of the warrants with an exercise price of $1.50. A large number of shares traded above $1.50 on the day of the announcement and I wonder if some of the pullback may have been exercising the warrants and selling at a 10% profit for the day.
