To say that 2014 has been a good year so far for CEL-SCI Corporation (NYSEMKT:CVM) would be an understatement. It's been a great year for the company, and more specifically, its shareholders. CVM is up 96% year-to-date, cutting into a big chunk of the loss that was suffered in 2013. And, though a near-doubling in less than a month would normally be an invitation to a painful wave of profit-taking, in the case of CEL-SCI, the situation says this is one of those rallies that could get hotter the hotter it gets.
If the name rings a bell, it may be because CVM was one of the SmallCap Network's featured stocks - off and on - over the course of 2006, 2007, and part of 2008. There's no need to go into all the details of why we liked it so much for so long. Let's just suffice it to say the fact that CEL-SCI Corporation was on the verge of carrying its flagship development, head and neck cancer drug Multikine, from Phase 2 to Phase 3 was a pretty exciting time for the company as well as shareholders, and we wanted to reap whatever we could from the opportunity (especially knowing that any drug that makes it to Phase 3 trials has extremely strong odds of a final approval.
