AMRK (26.35) that was a surprisingly big earnings miss, but evidently it leaked out because the stock action has been poor the past few weeks with the stock already down 37% from the summer high of $42+. They did not explain why the big miss in the PR, but presumably they'll provide some clarification in the conf call. I'll be interested in reading the transcript. I wonder if they're losing market share or is this just a transient business slowdown ? Will earnings rebound in Dec Q2 or will the results get even weaker ?
