The coil scanner picked up AGN. Allergan is another drug stock like yesterday's pick, Pfizer. (PFE put in a very sweet run after it broke out yesterday afternoon -- of course it had a strong broad market tailwind to help it along.)

Mutual Funds Opt to Liquidate, by Riva Atlas:
"'There is no way we are going to close the fund unless we have to,' said Benno Thieme of Thieme Securities, an affiliate of the
fund manager. 'It's a matter of pride.'"
Pride stayeth despite the fall, I guess. But life is always good for those engaged in the "World's Largest Skimming Operation." Posted at 7:49, GMT
