With markets closed today and Hurricane Sandy ravaging the Eastern Seaboard, investors looking forward to earnings reports from Pfizer (NYS: PFE) , Vertex Pharmaceuticals (NAS: VRTX) , Dendreon (NAS: DNDN) , and Acorda Therapeutics (NAS: ACOR) will have to wait a little longer for their quarterly dose of financial metrics. Pfizer and Vertex have moved their release dates from Monday to Thursday. Accorda and Dendreon have delayed their previously scheduled Tuesday releases to Wednesday and Friday, respectively.
