Acadia was upgraded today at Leerink to an outperform from a market perform with the price target going to $50 from $21. The stock has been stuck in the $40 to $42 range. But let’s not complain, the stock has had a pretty good week. I still $48 on the horizon.

Netflix (NFLX)

Piper Jaffray noted today that it seems that Netflix international subscriber growth is running ahead of guidance.   The stock is completing the falling wedge pattern, and a jump above resistance at $294 could start getting the shares moving higher.  I wrote about for this for the premium subscribers this week. Netflix Still Has Some Life Left. Hey read it, the first two weeks are free. If you hate my write up cancel, I won’t get insulted. I’m used to it.

Freeport (FCX)

Freeport is also moving up today and is breaking above resistance at $10.40 and now has a clear path to $11. I first noted the bullish trends last Friday when the stock was around $9.50.  Again, you can read it in the premium section. Why Freeport And Copper May Be Heading Higher
