I wrote a couple of times in the past about Molecular Devices. Originally I wrote a take after they dropped precipitously following a guidance downgrade. The company had good products, wasn't overly expensive, and had a clean balance sheet. So I thought there was an over-reaction and went bullish in CAPS. I did not buy in real life. [more]
