Targacept Down 76% Since Detected With EPS Syndrome 2 comments
Stockdiagnostics suspended the ranking on TRGT, November 23,2010 after the company reported 3rd quarter financials for the period ending September 30,2010. TRGT was diagnosed with the EPS SYNDROME, which is a red flag and warns extreme caution should be exercised before owning shares of companies with a Suspended ranking. Since the EPS Syndrome was detected 16 months ago, shares have declined from $22.43, down over $16 or 76%. During this same period the S&P500 index is up 20%.
