PHCC- +3 1/2 today (wanted to share a good stock IMHO) A company I once owned (unfortunately sold it a while back)..still follow it and in retrospect should have kept it. It was a spin off from BDY which I sold last Dec.'98, probably should consider buying it back now... bigcharts.com (addendum: only get basic chart..I had set up beautiful presentation chart with all events showing, candlesticks, etc but it doesn't url through to here) I sold it at the big candle in Dec.'98 (hope this Bigchart shows correctly) Business Summary (from Yahoo finance) Priority Healthcare distributes specialty pharmaceuticals and related medical supplies to the alternate site healthcare market and provides patient specific, self injectable biopharmaceuticals and disease treatment programs. For the three months ended 3/99, revenues rose 43% to $83.2 million. Net income rose 74% to $3.6 million. Results reflect new product introductions, new customers, and favorable changes in the product mix.
