(closed on 05/11/08)

I would somehow be remiss if I didn't at least comment on the AWFUL trading activity in Meridian (VIVO) today. It was made doubly worse after just writing about this stock a few days ago (on April 12, 2008), and now seeing the price take a big hit on what was an earnings disappointment. VIVO closed today at $27.19, down $(6.54) or (19.39)% on the day. With this as one of my remaining six issues, my trading account really took a hit on what worked out to be a relatively stable market.

Shortly after selling my Harris Stock I was pleased to see that not all of my stocks were 'falling out of bed' today and that Meridian Bioscience, one of my most successful of holdings had moved higher to another appreciation target. Thus, I sold 1/7th of my 199 shares or 28 shares of VIVO at $34.43/share. Meridian (VIVO) was purchased almost 3 years ago on 4/21/05 with a cost basis of $7.42/share (!) giving me a gain of $27.01/share or a 364% appreciation on these shares. <> This was my eighth partial sale of Meridian in my account having previously sold portions at 30, 60, 90, 120, 180,...
