| 08:47 EDT | | AMAG | AMAG Pharmaceuticals Ferumoxytol treatment significant hemoglobin increases
AMAG Pharmaceuticals announced that a new sub-group analysis from IDA-301, a phase III, randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial, will be presented today at the Digestive Disease Week 2013 meeting in Orlando, Florida. In the full IDA-301 study, 608 adult patients with iron deficiency anemia who had failed or could not tolerate oral iron were treated with ferumoxytol and 200 received placebo. The data from this study showed a direct correlation between a rise in hemoglobin levels and improvements in patients' self-reported measures of fatigue. GI patients with iron deficiency anemia who have not responded well to oral iron supplementation have a need for additional treatment options. The analysis from this study supports the potential of ferumoxytol as a new treatment option for patients with IDA from GI disease who have previously had an unsatisfactory response to oral iron therapy |

| 13:06 EDT | | YHOO | On The Fly: Midday Wrap
Stocks on Wall Street were modestly higher at midday as the Dow and S&P seek to continue their march higher after closing last week at record levels. ECONOMIC EVENTS: In the U.S., the light domestic economic calendar included the Chicago Fed National Activity index, which slipped to -0.53 for April from its prior reading of -0.23. In Asia, the Hang Seng and Shanghai Composite both climbed after Chinese home prices were reported to have risen in April. COMPANY NEWS: Yahoo (YHOO) confirmed it is buying social media platform Tumblr for $1.1B, as widely reported over the weekend, and promised "not to screw it up" in its press release to announce the deal... Actavis (ACT) agreed to acquire Warner Chilcott (WCRX) in a stock-for-stock transaction valued at approximately $8.5B. The deal, which was approved by the boards of both companies, equates to a value of $20.08 per Warner Chilcott share based on Actavis' closing share price on Friday, the companies said. MAJOR MOVERS: Among the notable gainers were some other companies with M&A news: Acquity Group (AQ) shares more than doubled after Accenture (ACN) agreed to buy the company for $13.00 per American Depositary Share, and Pactera Technology (PACT) gained 31% after receiving a non-binding proposal from a Blackstone (BX) affiliate to be taken private for $7.50 per ADS. Among the noteworthy losers was XenoPort (XNPT), which fell 11% after one of its drugs failed in a Phase III trial for multiple sclerosis spasticity. Also lower were shares of Red Hat (RHT), which slid 4% following a downgrade to Market Perform at BMO Capital. INDICES: Near 1 pm ET, the Dow was up 13.67, or 0.09%, to 15,368.07; the Nasdaq was up 1.13, or 0.03%, to 3,500.10; and the S&P 500 was up 2.18, or 0.13%, to 1,669.65. |

| 11:21 EDT | | YHOO | Yahoo acquisition a step in right direction, says Piper Jaffray
Piper views Yahoo's acquisition of Tumblr as a step in the right direction and one that could increase the company's top line growth from its current 1% estimate to 2% in 2013 and from 5% to 8% in 2014. However, Piper feels the deal is too small to materially change Yahoo's growth rate and continues to view the Alibaba IPO as the biggest part of the Yahoo story. The firm raised its price target for shares to $27 from $21 and keeps a Neutral rating on the name. |
