      1. 60% of Schering Plough's earnings come from 2 drugs whose efficacy was doubted this week.
        1. True
        2. False
        1. The New England Medical Journal recommended that doctors stop routinely prescribing Vytorin and a related drug, Zetia. Research showed that they did not reduce fatty plaque in arteries any more than a cheaper generic. The drugs are jointly sold by Schering and Merck and generate around $5B in sales. Schering shares fell by 29% on the news and the company announced a sweeping cost-cutting plan to shave $1.5B in expenses over the next 4 years.
      2. RIM's BlackBerry was expected to lose ground to the iPhone. What did its results show?
        1. In-line results left the market undecided on iPhone's impact
        2. RIM's new subscriber growth is stronger than expected
        3. RIM's subscribers are trading in BlackBerrys for iPhones
        4. It did indeed lose ground; new subscriber adds were down 10%
        1. RIM beat results with subscriber additions of 2.18 million -- bringing total subscribers to 14M, up from 8M a year ago. Analysts expected 1.98M-2.1M. RIM says it expects another 2.2M new subscribers this quarter, which will generate EPS of $0.82-0.86 and revenue of $2.23-2.3B (consensus = $0.76 and $2.02B).

      3. What did UBS and Deutsche Bank announce which caused a huge rally in bank shares?
        1. Additional write-downs totaling $22.9B between them
        2. Results showing no more subprime writedowns
        3. Profitable quarters with strong outlooks
        4. Write-ups on assets they wrote off in the previous quarter
        1. The market heaved a huge sigh of relief after news of further writedowns and a close to $15B capital raise by UBS, suggesting that the write-downs are now complete. UBS is not out of the woods yet with it's Chairman Marcus Ospel stepping down and rumors of takeovers and sales of its I-Banking unit.
      4. Car sales were weak in March, which two firms showed the best year-on-year growth?
        1. GM (-3%) and Nissan (+2.5%)
        2. Toyota (+6%) and Chrysler (-2%)
        3. Nissan (-3.8%) and Honda (-3.2%)
        4. Ford (-1%) and Honda (-5%)
        1. Auto sales were weak again in March. Here's the blow by blow (Y/Y): GM -19%; Ford -14%; Toyota -10% (it was Toyota's 7th drop in 9 months); Chrysler -19%; Honda -3.2%; Nissan -3.8%. Only Nissan and Honda posted monthly gains on an adjusted basis (+6.3% and +3.2%). Seasonally adjusted annual sales are now 15.1M, below the 16M considered healthy.

      5. Bernanke's assessment of the economy this week was that "Recession is _______"
        1. Highly unlikely
        2. Possible
        3. Likely
        4. Far off
        1. The Fed Chairman gave his most pessimistic assessment of the U.S. economy to date yesterday, using the R word. "Recession is possible. Our estimates are that we are slightly growing at the moment, but we think that there's a chance that for the first half, as a whole, there might be a slight contraction."
