Somanetics Corp (SMTS)

CAPS Rating:
****

Develops, manufactures and markets the INVOS Cerebral Oximeter, the only non-invasive patient monitoring system commercially available in the United States that continuously measures changes in the blood oxygen level in the adult brain.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other players to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

This is the Netflix of Oxygen monitoring. Not too sophisticated, one really convenient product, easy to sell and easy for hospitals to buy. Patients don't get jabbed-- Heck, maybe I will just get started monitoring myself now...

Given that the company has, still, some available cash left to continue (re) purchasing some of its stock, if they continue on this trail, I believe that the market will reward them.

I'm re-upping (2nd 3rd)) on a tiny cap health equipment company WITH CASH ... and an expanding niche.

Would BABY and SMTS get together, I'd be a very happy camper.

The shorts will manipulate in the short term. But, I think this is a very "healthy" company... with good long term prospects.

In other words, there is a No. 1 stock in CAPS and a worst-ranked stock in CAPS. When you arrive at the top-ranked stock, clicking "Beat this Stock!" will cause the page to refresh.

That is, until there is a new No. 1 stock!
