Adding to some ANIK today. Although Mr. market was most likely looking for more. I didn't think earnings were that bad to warrant today's slide. Interga still in the buying mood. This before the close of MY DSCI. Integra LifeSciences To Buy J & J Codman Neurosurgery Business For $1.045 Bln (RTTNews.com) - Integra LifeSciences Holdings Corp.
