Going to be giving this one a very optimistic forecast over the winter. Profit last quarter would have been up considerably had they not had to pay out the settlement - now that that's over and accounted for it's looking less bleak.

Said it 18 months ago. Sell sell.... Mid-management in many countries are to concerned with the`` Boys Club `` attitude.
They cleaned house 2 years ago. The problem ``The boys got ride of the wrong people ``.
They fired the people on the ground who told them what was happening. The boys on the second and third level have no idea of what is going on at ice level. In Canada and many other countries they have lost 40-55% market share in the Drug Eluding market.
The only big gains have been in 1-2 major accounts were they gave the house away.
People have been predicting a comeback for the past 2-3 years.
With time they will be bought off.
Bottom line.... strong products + second-class management
= 8.00$ stock

Been watching this stock for awhile and felt it was somewhat overpriced. I think now would be a decent entry point so long as it stays below $9.

With Canada opening up to the new additions to the boston's arsonal, they may do well stand alone or be a viable candadite for a takeover.

They are generating lots of cash and rapidly paying down debt. Insider selling last fall was induced by the financial crisis and does not reflect a lack of faith in the business. Gross margin of 70%. They will likely benefit from universal health care as they will make up on volume any reduction in prices imposed by the new regime.

Over the last one year management has aggressively moved to cut costs and fix a number of issues resulting in a business with a much improved operating, strategic and financial profile. Fortunately for us these improvements have not yet been reflected in the Company’s stock price.

BSX has been on a decline since 2004 with no signs of a big recovery. I've held this a long time, losing patience with them.

SInce they upgraded this stock it has lost 20% of it's value. Everyone said to buy because med devices are recession proof. Well this is certainly not the case with BSX. Pissed off....

BSX has made unprofitable aquisitions. Too much goodwill and intangibles on the balance sheet.
