Nice bounce on RIO, very very tough luck on KONG, a downgrade by a quazi firm.. Susq is not a true analyst, they are more of a trading group/hedge fund..
Jeff,

That CRDC felt right from the get-go..and who knows where it goes, but the company really is making somthing that will be used for hundreds of thousands of procedures..that was all I needed to hear.
2 day recovery time on bypass surgery? Are you kidding me?
That was an easy play....
You know it is funny..

I agree about CRDC...I am going to track down the patient and/or the doc who did the surgery here and try to interview him.I have heard fairly close second hand reports on both. (Two friends of mine have had heart surgeries in the same hospital within the past month, but did not undergo this particular procedure.)
Given the number of people who have heart disease just in this country, much less the world, and the fact that there are surgeons lining up to be trained on this, it seems less speculative than, well, some Chinese fertilizer company And I am fairly certain I can find out a lot more about the applications, as Ricmond is really a small town...

This might sound really greedy and lame from an investment perspective but I really really wish they had options on this stock.
I would love to have gotten some leaps instead of shares..the return would have been huge..but alas we didnt have that choice.
Yeah if you find anything let me know. The info is out there as to the surgeons who did the procedures already and if you can track any info down that would be great.
This stock reminds me of ONXX..they have zero similarities as companies but the action is similar to me. People piled in expecting things to turn out big, but unlike ONXX, they actually HAVE the device and the procedures are being done..
It might take a year until this gains acceptance but how the hell could it not?
Stock crossing 15 as I type this...

I know enough about Dr.Katz to believe him when he says it could revolutionize cardiothoracic surgery, as he was quoted saying.He has been doing robotic assisted surgeries for a while now (not sure, maybe as long as 5-7 years.)He is pretty well known here.
We will see. Options on a stock with this move would have been very sweet indeed. I am going to continue to keep talking to people, and I have some close friends who work there.

CRDC will be one wild, wild, wild ride for a few weeks, at least.
But..............
THERE IS NO SHORT POSITION
Therefore, its upside is going to be contained. Fully expect Barron's to bash it this weekend, which will be another buying opportunity, since Barron's is to fading stocks just as ESPN is to fading football. Barron's is a fucking joke....always has been, always will be.
Have a good weekend, everyone.

Yeah, we won't get real time, but this doesn't have the severe spikes (until 28 hours ago) that would indicate a MAJOR short position.
Also, as you know, many shorts hedge with options, and CRDC lists no options currently.
If CRDC had a big short position, you're right, it'd be close to 25ish now as the manipulators would be having a field day turning up the heat on them.
It's kind of like CFC......if CFC had almost no short position, it'd be like 10-12ish.
In any event, CRDC looks like "possibly, maybe" a long-term hold for me. I don't think it goes much lower than 8-9ish in the year to come, and it could certainly appreciate from here, so I am content to go the long haul with this one in hopes that it goes maybe close to 20 during the next 2 years.......it'd be a 66% return to buy right here at 12 and sell at 20 2 years from now. Good enough for me when there is little downrisk.
