Among the companies with shares expected to actively trade in
Monday's session are Uni-Pixel Inc. (UNXL), DaVita Healthcare
Partners Inc. (DVA) and Fresenius Medical Care AG & Co. (FMS,
FME.XE).
Shares of touch-sensor technology maker Uni-Pixel slid after the
company disclosed in a Securities & Exchange Commission filing
that the agency is inquiring about the company's business deals.
The SEC has looked into the company's agreements related to its
InTouch Sensors, though Uni-Pixel said the inquiry shouldn't be
viewed as an indication that any violations of law have occurred.
Shares tumbled 17% to $11.60 after hours.
DaVita and Fresenius traded higher after the Centers for
Medicare and Medicaid Services said it will reduce payments to
kidney dialysis providers by less than 1% over the next two years
in a reversal of the much-larger cuts it had proposed earlier this
summer. The move handed at least a temporary victory to dialysis
providers like DaVita and Fresenius. DaVita's shares jumped 9.8% to
$62.05 after hours, while Fresenius' stock climbed 6.3% to
$34.26.
