Hansen Medical, Inc. (NASDAQ:HNSN)

Closed and re-opened to more accurately reflect my actual start price. Actually $1.61.

Sold it 12 days ago for $2.14 because of various semi-negative news reports concerning "robotic assisted surgery"

That $8.5M settlement of the old "share holder" suit from 2009, at first glance looked like a tremendous hit, but if you look at how it was paid, it is not as bad as it first appeared.

The insurance company paid about half, and HNSN paid most of theirs in new shares.

While this is dilutive, and they are still "burning cash" and are lagging in sales, they have made some management changes that could help in those areas.

This is still an "iffy" investment, and could go either way, but I am willing to take another small position and watch to see how it plays out.

Not for "orphans and widows", but nothing risked, nothing gained.

JMO and worth exactly what I am charging for it.

Robotics.. like isrg. Intuitive Surgical, Inc.

Outperform

near 52wk low and medical robotics +long

A lot of solid recommendations from credible people, by far the majority in negative territory. Has to be close to the perfect entry-point.

HNSN sells disruptive technology, and has the same founder as MAKO and ISRG. After a long period of marketing, hospitals are starting to enter in to deals with the company to use their products - most notably a robotic catheter placement system. The chart is showing a nice "cup with a handle pattern" with support around $3.50. I own shares in the company; it is my favorite speculative investment.

This stock and the associated technology is just starting to realize it's potential. Other notables cos.: STSX, ISRG, MAKO.

in two years they start making a lot of money. Patient trial just started for the Sensei(R) X Robotic System

very good stock and growing

With so many baby-boomers reaching the age of Medicare, many good medical related stocks will be in the fore front.

Have a new product announcement coming in the next few weeks and it may turn peoples heads again to the once high flying days of this stock.

So the same guy who is responsible for ISRG and MAKO is doing the same thing again with HNSN? Not that complicated, buy.

I predict this will be my biggest winner ever, better than HGSI.
