This may explain some of the price action ..

To close, I have a funny story to share with you about Celera. It comes from Philip Marston, a neighbor and Fool whose wit I've drawn off of once or twice in the past in this column.

Philip did this, and you can do what he did: Go to Yahoo! Finance (quote.yahoo.com). Type in "Celera." It will say "no quote." But it offers a link: "Try Symbol Lookup." So hit that, and then type in (again) "Celera." Go ahead! (After reading this column.) Notice what happens... it gives you the (incorrect) ticker symbol "XLA."

Now hit that and check the chart this week, both the volume and the price movement. Look familiar?

What to make of it? You make the call.
