    This is an interesting one to watch on the back burner. Current valuations put this in value territory now. Earnings coming out on May 9th and the conference call giving future expectations might be interesting. If there earnings projections don't take to big of a hit they might make a good value play in mid May for longer term appreciation

    It's interesting because their CEO ditched to jump on a burning ship that's getting sucked into a whirlpool named VRX. So that doesn't instill confidence in PRGO. But then again that CEO made a terrible move by rejecting the MYL takeover - I bet a lot of stockholders wish they had $29/share in their pocket right about now. That guy thought PRGO was being undervalued at $29. Got to say, his judgment is not the greatest. Fits right in at VRX.

    I remember that MYL offer!

    http://investorplace.com/2015/11/myl-prgo-mylan-perrigo/

    Mylan (MYL) has launched a hostile takeover of drugmaker Perrigo (PRGO) and it will be up to investors to decide the winner.

    Here are a few things to know about the hostile takeover of Perrigo that Mylan is attempting, as collected from The Wall Street Journal.

    • Mylan is offering about $26 billion for Perrigo, which is a 9% premium on PRGO stock.
    • Perrigo is offering investors cost cuts and share buybacks to counter MYL’s offer.
    • Investor’s will vote to see if Mylan’s takeover is a success.
    • Irish takeover laws prevent Mylan from changing the deal last minute to spur negotiations with Perrigo.
    • Hostile takeovers don’t happend much anymore, making this situation a rare occurrence.
    • MYL is expecting its offer to draw in hedge funds, which have a 20% to 25% stake in PRGO.
    • PRGO is expecting investors from Israel, who have a 12% stake in the company, to take its side.
    • The winner of the hostile takeover effort will be revealed this Friday.

    I need to edit my post: it was $170/share not $29 (Papa claimed they were worth $229).

    Anyway, the old CEO then said the best use of PRGO money was to do buybacks. And now he's leaving. Guess he got tired of spending PRGO shareholders money.

    Obviously the value kept going down, so the jig was up. Dude would have been fired anyway. Seems to me like this is actually good news for PRGO.

    Bullish crossover of the moving averages and trading in a decent channel here. Just paid out the dividend last week. Just took a position at $46.151.

    This is another one you turned me on to. Bought 10k worth last week at 48 and sold 10k worth today at 52, leaving me with 16 shares free-n-clear in 1 week. Thanks!

    There could be some resistance here. I'll be watching closely tomorrow and selling at the first sign of weakness. No reason to give back 20% profit on a 1 week trade in order to just get an extra couple %. Basically a trailing stop tomorrow.

    And there it is. Basically at my target now. I have manual stop entered that I keep increasing since I've (basically) hit my target, but I'm leaving it open until the push forward ends. I'm not going to be too forgiving on the stop because the trade was executed as my plan was set up. I don't want to get too greedy.
