REITs Quietly Sell Stock Overnight At A Discount; Next Day Pop Fries Shorts

Mon, 08 Jun 2009 22:24:16 GMT

If Frank Quattrone could start over, he would be a REIT banker.

With REIT stocks now being served up like Cannolis on Columbus Day, and consumed almost as fast by shell-shocked but somehow still hungry investors, you may have one question: What is Going On?

Markets Keep Under Reacting To Dividend Cuts

Tue, 25 Nov 2008 18:43:00 GMT

Emageon, Inc. (EMAG) operates in a mature large hospital picture archiving and communications system (PACS) market. The company might not grow successfully because of the superior financial resources, technical expertise, marketing, distribution, and support capabilities of its competitors.

As the company depends on a small number of customers for a large portion of sales, the loss of any one can adversely affect its financial results. A trend towards perpetual licenses could cause greater volatility in Emageon's operating results, as revenue[More...]
