Stock Alert 12/30/08 - NFP National Financial Partners

This afternoon, December 30th, 2008, I am noticing National Financial Partners ( NFP ) stock breaking out to the upside. This stock has been inching up all day and finally the volume is hitting around 1:25pm. NFP stock went from 2.50 to 2.90 in about 5 minutes.

National Financial Partners ( NFP ) is back where it started the day yesterday so I guess you can make the case it is NOT breaking out. This is a beaten down financial stock which has resistance around the $3 level so I will continue to monitor this one.
