NWY was dropped after being downgraded to a sell from a hold. EPS declined 90% YoY in the first quarter of 2007. That continued a year of declining EPS. Net income decreased over 86% and return on equity was also lower.

06/21/2007 21:15 PM CDT Asked by rwyatt8282
AACC declared a special one-time cash dividend of $2.45 per share. The dividend is payable July 31 to shareholders of record on July 19.

AFN continues to disappoint as it broke down below support at $9. It will look for support again around $8.50.

06/21/2007 21:06 PM CDT Asked by rwyatt8282
AFSI recently broke out above $17 resistance to reach all time high over $18. It is rising fast, but still has room to grow with a lower than average P/E ratio.

JMP just released earnings with profits up 100% for the quarter.
