I'm so confused as to why anyone would red thumb this. AMED is a billion$ company that runs nursing homes. This is a growing sector in the U.S. with the senior population growing. Company has produced incredible growth over the past years through aquisitions and such and will continue to do so.

AMED has a 25$ book value so you're getting the buisiness for only 11$. With earnings at 5$ a share for the year this has a P/E of only 2.... of course thats only if earnings stay constant. As I said, earnings have been growing fast even during the recession. So why would anyone downthumb this?

This could be easily worth 70+ when peolple get their heads straight!

Portefeuille 12. Betting that this reasonably priced medical services staffing company will benefit from the upcoming sector rotation to healthcare.

The forward PE is about 8 with the 5-year growth estimate at 18.5. MSN stock scouter rating is 7. I am targeting a 50% return over its current price of 39.55.

With Medicare rebates likely to increase in 2010 AMED is going to be a benificiary of this increase. Rumors abound by analyts that AMED will continue to grow revenue and eps. Let's see!

Cheers!

One of the few healthcare stocks which I think will be OK under an Obama government healthcare plan. Currently performing very well.

I like this stock for the following reasons:
It is run by a nurse who has managed the company for many years. Early on the company had a near death experience due to high debt levels.
The company is small and growing.
Home nursing care is a business with the wind at its back.
