• Advocat Announces 2008 Second Quarter Results – Advocat (Nasdaq:AVCA) revenues were up 28% but the stock was hammered on a steep decline in earnings. The culprit? Liability charges, versus reversals last year. Advocat needs to get the lawsuits in check if it is to restore earnings growth.
• ZVUE Chart – July 2008 was the first month in recent memory where I have not received hate email from ZVUE pumpers. Maybe that’s because the stock now trades under twenty cents, down from about $7 when I first discussed ZVUE’s flaws.
