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.

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.
