$WCG DD Notes ~ http://www.ddnotesmaker.com/WCG

In medical field where they are located "rumor" has it they are about to purchase another insurance company. It's rumor- but three providers who do not know each other have all said it.

Was about to sell, but this thing just keeps climbing- their business is strong in FL.

Every time I think about selling this happens! Great day

I have had this stock for a good ride. Anyone have an opinion on it. Everything still looks good to me, have been in long, but trying to decide if it's exit time.

May be worth a look..

*If the earnings date is in error please ignore error. I do my best.

anybody following this turd?

I am sorry for your losses, be it paper or realized. I found this stock at close to 20 and watched it to 30 before i bought, realizing its a gamble based on what the sec decides to do or not do. i happen to think this will get cleared by the powers that be and will gain back its share price, at the very least offer an opportunity for those that had to margin sell, buy again....owning on margin is always a gamble at best anyway...glty

Oh and i agree with the part about it falling 20 dollars if it does i will buy alot just like last time.This one will in turn decrease some millionares and create some at the same time.

I think it was mainly market over reaction than anything else and that is just my opinion.I know a bunch of people myself included took advantage of that tumble and i hope all the people that were done wrong get retribution but,do not fully blame this on the co. when all the hedgie's bail.

GLTU

These corp exces will pay for what they did to us investors who lost 90% of our stock values and had margin calls we had to be forced to sell into!

This stock and company technically has to close a tech gap below $30.00 which it did not, and is only moving up very cautiously on wishes and hopes, and with current market conditions I am waiting for a nearly $20.00 per share drop still before it is safe to re-enter and buy long term again- that is if they are not closed down or lose their position to Humana or United Health or another.

But not having any salient information as to what is going on makes this more risky than buying into OTC stocks in my opinion. Many peoples' retirements suffererd now as did many States and other large funds that held this supposedly safer large cap issue right along with safer dividend paying large cap US bank stocks...

Many people will not have a Christmas this year because of what these corp execs did to cause their stock to tumble over 90% in 4 days and yet, they all still own $multi-million homes and assets.

nice....i got in at 30 and have added until 40....will ad more as we get more news if it doesnt run to fast.....glty

I actually have very few shares left got in at 22 and most were gone at 40.00 still have a few though

ahhhh thanks mrcigar.....will check it out

Busy IN yahoo Board

why doesnt anyone post here, this stock is on fire...?

lol weeeeeeeeeeee up in AH big

Not to badly though

stock droping again

No, smart....if the market were risk free, everyone would be here. GLTU!

Brave.

i still have no worries

(Rewrites first paragraph, adds analyst comment, byline, updates shares)

By Lewis Krauskopf

NEW YORK, Nov 5 (Reuters) - Shares of WellCare Health Plans Inc (WCG) jumped more than 40 percent on Monday after a news report implied less harm could come from a probe hovering over the health insurer than had previously been expected.

The company, which also reported a preliminary 67 percent rise in quarterly profit, has seen its shares battered after its offices were raided by state and federal agents last month. Few details about the probe have emerged.

WellCare serves 2.3 million low-income, elderly and other members through government-sponsored Medicare and Medicaid health plans.

The Wall Street Journal reported over the weekend that the raid was spurred at least in part by allegations that the company had inflated its mental health-care costs to keep money it should have refunded to Florida's Medicaid program.

"The third-quarter results are overshadowed by market speculation that the outcome of the investigation will leave more equity value than was implied last week when shares were trading below $25," Goldman Sachs analyst Matthew Borsch said in a research note.

Borsch said investors are reacting to implications from the report that the probe's ramifications might be less severe.

Shares of WellCare were up $9.82, or 35.9 percent, to $37.19 in afternoon trade on the New York Stock Exchange after climbing as high as $39.55. Before the raid last month, they were trading above $115.

The Journal's report, which cited a person familiar with details of the investigation, said the federal and Florida investigation followed the filing of a whistle-blower lawsuit by a former employee of Harmony Behavioral Health, a WellCare subsidiary.

The company's practices allegedly defrauded the state and federal health-care programs of more than $35 million over five years, the newspaper said.

WellCare said it has not been served with and has not seen the whistle-blower lawsuit referenced in the article.

Jefferies & Co analyst Brian Wright raised his rating on WellCare shares to "buy" after the Journal's report, and his price target on the shares to $50.

Wright increased the probability that the end result of the probe would be just a fine to 84 percent from his previous projection of 53 percent.

The company also said on Monday it had learned that a former employee of its special investigations unit filed a lawsuit in state court in Leon County, Florida, last month against several defendants, including the company and one of its subsidiaries.

The company said the suit is under seal so it is unable to determine whether it relates to the government probe.

Analysts have speculated that last month's raid could relate to a possible whistle-blower lawsuit brought by a former or current employee.

In preliminary results reported on Monday, third-quarter net income rose to $72.4 million, or $1.71 per share, from $43.3 million, or $1.06 per share, a year earlier.

Excluding a gain related to legal matters, earnings of $1.57 were 5 cents ahead of analysts' expectations, according to Reuters Estimates.

Revenue rose 41.7 percent to $1.43 billion. WellCare cited the launch of a Medicaid health plan in Georgia and growth in its Medicare plans for seniors.

Total membership rose nearly 8 percent to 2.34 million from a year earlier. WellCare reported 160,000 members in its Medicare Advantage plans at Sept. 30 compared with 87,000 a year before.

The company said last week it would not submit its quarterly filing to regulators until an independent investigation into the matter had finished.

WellCare said it is cooperating with the U.S. Department of Justice, the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services Office of Inspector General and the Florida Attorney General's Medicaid Fraud Control Unit.
