Yes SNN will outperform the S&P 500 but don't expect huge returns. On the other hand the downward potential is not that much. It is a good investment based on the risk return ratio. This is a conservative company with a 1% dividend. Most of their… More

Smith and Nephew is a large and safe company. SNN is near a 52 week low. Nothing about SNN itself has caused this drop in stock price. The costs of lending, oil prices and the generally poor economy have caused this stock to drop. SNN has a couple of new products in the final stages of development that will be used by orthopedic surgeons within the next year.SNN is widely regarded in the medical community for making safe, reliable and innovative products. They consult with and are counseled by physicians in Boston when making these products. There is no reason to believe their new products will not be just as successful as their past products. Get this stock near its 52 week low. It will pay you dividends and the price will grow.

Let's see... Check my myl pitch-similar line of reasoning. Plus it's an adr for all those anti-americans out there. I actually like Striker or Zimmer better.

Aging population that's living longer, exponential growth in orthopedic procedures, and a strong presence in those operating rooms.

Bought this stock in my CAPS at a price/earnings around 13, and sold it at a price/earnings around 27. It's still a great company with good products and reasonable price, but the p/e is too high for my blood.
