In afternoon trade the S&P/ASX 200 (Index: ^AXJO) (ASX: XJO) has stormed higher by 1% to 5,740 points.

Unfortunately not all shares have been able to follow the market higher today. Four shares which have started the week in the red are listed below:

The Bubs Australia Ltd (ASX: BUB) share price is down 2% to 47.5 cents. The fledgling infant formula company's shares continue to bounce around at the will of day traders. While I think Bubs could have a bright future ahead of it, I would suggest investors look at buying in at a cheaper price.

The Liquefied Natural Gas Ltd (ASX: LNG) share price has sunk lower again, this time by 2.5% to 38.5 cents. This extends the company's year-to-date decline to in excess of 42%. The oversupply of natural gas continues to negatively impact the company and weigh heavily on its shares.

The Shine Corporate Ltd (ASX: SHJ) share price has continued its decline with a 5% drop to 57 cents. The embattled law firm's shares have fallen 21% in the last five trading sessions after it was served with a class action.

The Yancoal Australia Ltd (ASX: YAL) share price has tumbled 4.5% to 10.5 cents. Investors continue to respond negatively to the coal miner's decision to exercise its option to purchase Mitsubishi Development's 28.9% interest in the Warkworth joint venture for US$230 million.
