Vertex shares may not be for the faint-hearted at these price levels. However, the hepatitis C derby is just that: a race. Should Vertex not stumble or encounter unforeseen obstacles prior to approval, $35 will wind up looking like an early exit point.

Vertex shares are once again challenging our price target and with the stock up 250% over the past year, investors may be asking what to do with the stock. We would stick with Vertex.

Vendors experienced significant growth in the color page printer market due to aggressive pricing, as the average selling price of these devices declined 21 percent in 2005.

We're starting to see hundreds of price reductions a day.

We're starting to get into that no man's land of lack of earnings, with most of the S&P 500 having reported already. We'll have durable goods orders tomorrow and beyond that, the market is going to have to count on the economic news and the price of oil for drivers.

We're seeing some upside price pressure in other goods relative to the trend. Capital goods, for instance, are exhibiting pricing power.

We're seeing reduced price appreciation in the Pacific Northwest, and Alaska although population growth and job growth there remain strong.

We're seeing price swings that we haven't seen in decades. We used to see a $6 range in gold over a week, and now we see it in a single day. The gold market is really going to be in play over the course of the year.

We're seeing more and more very shocking price increases, and that is somewhat of a disturbing trend. Time will tell how right analysts are.

We're seeing a real threat to journalism as a middle-class occupation and to the quality of news that we still need as citizens, ... all in the name of boosting share price for a limited number of investors.

We want to put pressure on the big oil companies and place an attack on excess profits and we also are going to have to keep a close eye on any price gouging

Whenever you have a collapse in a particular output price -- and we certainly saw a lot of that following Asia's decline -- it places a lot of pressure on companies to deal with keeping their revenues up. In that context consolidation isn't a big surprise.

We want rate stability like everybody else. Rates set at actual cost are the best way to price electricity.

We want more space, but just want a single story. Some of these houses are way out of our price range, and it's like looking at a puppy you just can't bring home.

We want the highest price possible. You have to weigh that against some risk: the timing of the sale and how long it could take to arrange financing. So sometimes it does make sense to take a lower price.

We are also enjoying many, many considerable advantages from the oil price increase. Many of our customers are the countries which have become rich as a result of the high oil price.

We are already part of a global marketplace in many respects. We import a significant amount of gas out of Canada. And we do see LNG cargoes coming into the U.S. today, subject to a global price mechanism, and we expect that to increase over time.

We are all hurt by insurance scams. As health care consumers, we all end up paying the price for fraud. Health insurance fraud perpetrators are basically stealing from consumers who are paying into the insurance system. Whether it's a doctor charging for a procedure that wasn't actually administered or a phony insurance agent selling fraudulent insurance to a senior citizen, the cost of fraud ends up being passed on to consumers.

We actually did that about a year ago. Even with a price increase and cutting routes from six to four, we're still losing money.

There are some parallels in the sense that the (USA) Patriot Act represents some retrenchment of our civil liberties and free speech. It is not as raw and blatant as the Sedition Act, but it represents an effort by government and the Congress to bolster security at the price of liberty - not just the Patriot Act, but the language and rhetoric and debate over who is more patriotic.

The OPEC demand revision is more of a reminder than anything else. Between the high level of crude stocks and the downward revisions to demand, the price should have trouble climbing like it has done this week.

The only way to save money is to shop around because even within cities there's still huge price difference, often 20 or more cents.

There are four or five teams selling and about 20 buying. The price for what's being offered is awful high right now. Whether teams get it or not, I don't know, but they're asking a lot.

We really have given up a lot in price and gained a lot in yield,

We're as upset about the high price of gasoline as the customers are. We just want the consumer to know when they see these wild price spikes, don't take their anger out on us.

We're anxious fence-sitters. Yields are back to where we like them -- and we'll like them more if we see more buyers and improved price action.

The fact of the matter is the product you're looking for is always going to be cheaper, or there's going to be a better product in four months at the same price point. If you wait like that, you'll wait forever. You really have to make a decision that it's time to buy.

The fact is that (Iraqi President Saddam Hussein) has the capacity now, in OPEC, to reduce production, which increases (the price of oil). That means that prices for New Hampshire residents for home heating oil go up,

The fact is that housing demand has not slowed meaningfully, nor have supply constraints been noticeably undermined, and the large, public builders are set to post significantly higher price growth, margins and earnings than the Street currently expects.

However, the Consumer Price Index for April that will come out tomorrow will give us a much more comprehensive picture of what is actually happening.

We have a plan to reduce the county's sales tax by one percent, ... thereby reducing the cost of gas for the consumer.

The price you see at the gas station is really based on the gas station owners expectations of what they have to replace the gas in their tanks, not what they paid for it.

The price was very high, ... But to get a prime bullpen arm, you have to give up something.

The price wasn't as important as clearing up some terms and conditions. If Boston Scientific has done that, then I don't know why Guidant's board wouldn't accept this bid.

The price was high, but to be able to get a proven bullpen arm who has pitched at a championship level, it was too good to pass up.

The price was expensive and the decision to raise it 23 percent came as a surprise. The sale took place when most investors had already added sufficient banking stocks to their portfolios so they don't have strong reasons for buying.

The price that I think you'd have to pay for St. Jude would be even more expensive than what Guidant is being bid for today.

The price tag was high really due to the research and program development. We're all aware that at that price, this system couldn't be duplicated at other schools. But most of the money was paid for the development. So my prediction is that in the future, the price of this system will be much lower.
