What a Wild Day!

Wow. I have one stock, CSQ, which I actually bought to be stable. It started the day around $9.00 and dropped to around $6.50, then back to $8.50. I am sure some of my MFI stocks had similar rides. I was tempted to do something, but didn't.

So many of my companies are reporting earnings, I can't keep up.

GXDX - (Genoptix posts lower-than-expected Q1)
WTW - (Weight Watchers Q1 tops market view; backs FY outlook)
UEPS - (Net 1 UEPS Technologies, Inc. Announces 2010 Third Quarter Results)
TRMS - (Trimeris Reports Financial Results for the First Quarter 2010)

Then I had an interesting headline with QCOR: (Trading Halted Today in Questcor Pharmaceuticals Common Stock). I am not sure I have even seen trading halted for an entire day. And then at the end of the day, they got a favorable ruling from the FDA panel, which will likely be upheld by the FDA (UPDATE - US FDA panel backs Questcor's Acthar). QCOR was up 10% after hours to about $10.30.... this is a stock that was under $4 in February.

Here is an update on all my MFI stocks... it is starting to get a little ugly. But I am sticking by the rules, as tempting as it is to bail.
