Hot year for Barnwell

It was a fitting finish for the water- and oil-drilling company, which is also the best performing stock in the index for the year, with a 103 percent gain. Its close yesterday at $25.10 brings it near its Nov. 15 high of $27.80.
Coming in second for the second week in a row was Cyanotech Corp., gaining just over 6 percent for the week, closing at $0.65. However, Cyanotech remains the worst-performing stock in the index this year, down 55 percent.
