Also among the late winners was student lender Sallie Mae (SLM Quote), lately up 2.3% to recover from its heavy stock-offering-spurred losses in the regular session. Biotech companies Genitope (GTOP Quote) and Dendreon (DNDN Quote) were recently climbing 5.1% and 6.3%, respectively.
Christopher & Banks (CBK Quote) was losing ground, however, after the Minnesota-based women's-apparel retailer slashed its fiscal 2008 profit estimate to between 2 cents and 5 cents a share -- at least 2 cents under Wall Street expectations. The company now expects same-store sales to be flat or down vs. last year, which compares with the prior prediction for a low- to mid-single-digit increase. In September, the income range was pegged at 6 cents to 8 cents a share. Third-quarter earnings came in a penny per share above estimates. Still, Christopher & Banks stock was down 5.5% to $12.21 in thin trading. Also declining after the closing bell, with recent losses of 1.1% or more, were glass-bottles maker Owens-Illinois (OI Quote); metals miner Coeur d'Alene Mines (CDE Quote); and rechargeable-batteries maker China BAK Battery (CBAK Quote).- Loading Comments...
