08:36 EDTAGNElan shares could be worh $19 in a buyout, says Jefferies
Jefferies raised its price target for shares of Elan (ELN) to $19 from $14, reflecting what it sees as the value of the company in a takeout scenario. The firm says Elan management suggested they would be open to sale in the $15-$20 per share range. Jefferies believes a high taxpaying suitor could pay the upper end of that range, and lists Allergan (AGN), Regeneron (REGN), Vertex (VRTX), Alexion (ALXN), Zoetis (ZTS), Mylan (MYL) and Perrigo (PRGO) as potential acquirers for Elan. Shares of Elan are up 13c to $13.62 in pre-market trading after Royalty Pharma announced that its buyout proposal for the company has expired.

Incyte (INCY) announced results from two ongoing clinical trials of Jakafi, ruxolitinib, an oral JAK1 and JAK2 inhibitor that is FDA-approved for the treatment of patients with intermediate or high-risk myelofibrosis, MF, that were presented at the 18th Congress of the European Hematology Associationm EHA, in Stockholm, Sweden. In a three-year follow-up analysis of the Phase III COMFORT-II study, treatment with Jakafi, which is marketed as Jakavi by Novartis (NVS) outside the United States, was associated with improved overall survival and sustained reductions in spleen size compared to best available therapy. In a separate exploratory analysis of bone marrow fibrosis data from an ongoing Phase I/II single-arm, open-label clinical trial, by 48 months of treatment, Jakafi stabilized or reversed fibrosis of the bone marrow in 56 percent and 22 percent, respectively, of patients with MF, a magnitude of an effect not seen historically with best available therapy.

Stocks on Wall Street were lower after the Bank of Japan's decision to hold off on any further stimulus measures raised investor concern. The averages recovered much of their early losses in the morning, sitting just below the flat line near noon, but the selling intensified during the second half of the session, with the market trending lower into the close. ECONOMIC EVENTS: In the U.S., NFIB's small business optimism index rose to 94.4 in May from a prior 92.1 reading. Wholesale inventories rose 0.2% in April, matching expectations, and wholesale trade rose 0.5% from the prior month, versus expectations for a 0.1% slide. The Job Openings & Labor Turnover report for April showed openings fell 3% to a seasonally adjusted 3.75M, while hiring jumped nearly 5% to 4.4M. In Asia, the Bank of Japan refrained from changing its policies following recent volatility in its stock and bond markets. The dollar weakened considerably against the Yen, losing more than 2% to trade near the Y96 level. COMPANY NEWS: Sprint (S) shares jumped 17c, or 2.37%, to $7.35 after Japan's Softbank (SFTBF) increased its offer to acquire the telecom company in the face of a potential rival bid from DISH Network (DISH). MAJOR MOVERS: Among notable gainers was Questcor (QCOR), up $5.47, or 14.9%, to $42.18 after the company acquired the right to develop Synacthen from Novartis (NVS). Also higher was Catamaran (CTRX), up $5.33, or 10.95%, to $53.99 after the company struck a ten-year strategic pharmacy benefits agreement with Cigna (CI) and its stock received upgrades from at least three firms. Among noteworthy losers was lululemon (LULU), down $14.43, or 17.54%, to $67.85 after its CEO announced plans to step down and the stock was downgraded at Sterne Agee and UBS. Also lower was GenMark Diagnostics (GNMK) which lost $1.96, or 12.95%, to $13.17, after Natural Molecular Testing launched a cardiac testing panel using technology from GenMark's competitor Luminex (LMNX).
