Not sure what you are seeing as great - ACOR trading being halted? That is the kiss of death.
At least it wasn't able to go down today ... if the FDA approves this drug on the 22nd, as originally planned, that could be a really good thing for the stock.
Otherwise, this one may need to be axed.

Looks good:
"In his assessment of the Amaya panel so far, Meacham said the FDA presentation was more balanced and didn't suggest a bias against approval. He added that experts on the panel had more questions about the FDA review than they did about the efficacy of Amaya.
The advisory panel will vote later today whether or not to recommend Amaya's approval. The final approval decision rests with FDA.
Acorda shares are halted today for the advisory panel meeting.
Update: The panel voted 12-1 in favor of Amaya's efficacy.
