Volume Spike Investor

Amgen, Inc. (NASDAQ: AMGN) is seeing some positive action this morning.  The biotech and drug maker announced Phase 3 trial results evaluating denosumab versus Zometa in advanced cancer patients with solid tumors or multiple myeloma showing that denosumab delayed skeletal related events (osteoporosis etc.).  Shares are up over 2% at $62.20 on over 175,000 shares as of 8:52 AM EST. As this is already the leader here, the fallout may be limited in competitors. If you can believe it, Amgen is now within about 3% of its 52-week highs.  -JON OGG
