Recent significant drop in share price does not reflect long-term prospects for this company.

St. Jude Medical, Inc. develops, manufactures, and distributes cardiovascular medical devices for the global cardiac rhythm management, cardiac surgery, cardiology, and atrial fibrillation therapy areas and implantable neuromodulation devices. Has four main perating segments

December-quarter sales were up 1.1 billion, 11% from last year, the Cardiac Rhythm Management segment recorded a 7% top-line gain. The Cardiovascular Business also recorded a 7% gain, and the Neuromodulation (which is fun to say, made me feel smart) was up 32%

The CRM is becoming much more crowed as the baby boomers start to get older (I should look into who makes depends) and St. Jude is well positioned to take advantage of this, also the Atrial Fibrillation and Neuromodulation (had to throw it in again) offer significant long-term growth opportunities

Life-saving devices that target heart disease. Higher than expected Q3 sales, and well insulated from macro turmoil.

This is by far one of the leanest operating Medical Device companies out there. And! The only one to not have a major recall.

STJ has done well in their CRM business in the last few years. It looks like this streak will continue. I think they will have the opportunity to take market share from MDT, but they will begin to feel some pressure from a stronger BSX.

I'm on the edge for this one!! There is always two sides to every story. On one hand, everyone needs medical services and as we all know, our waistlines are growing along with health risks involved. The more need for healthcare, the more you will go to the doctor. On the other hand of this, medical care is at an all time low. It's hard to go to the doctor if you don't have the money or insurance to do so. More and more people just "deal with it" to avoid heavy costs associated with medical care.

Any medical devices company seems like a pretty good outperform long-term. The baby boomers are going to spend almost all their accumulated wealth on keeping themselves alive sometime in the next ten to twenty years.

Good company. Lousy economy. Wait for the presidential election to be overwith. Barring terrorist attack, the medical tech stocks will get a honeymoon of sorts.

Hopefully they are finally pulling things togetther, and gonna start moving, most of the hype is probably in part by ISRG, but STJ is a diffferent company, that we all hope does half that well. It's been beating the S&P by not moving, now let's see if it can beat it and move.

Today (Jan 8, 2008), they announced that strong fourth-quarter revenue will outpace the previous estimates. Their earnings call is on January 23rd, leaving now an excellent time to pick them up...seeing as how strong earnings usually drives a stock upward disproportionately.
