I'm not sure QDEL is yet perceived as a consistent money earner, particularly after the expenses incurred in its settlement with BD. There are many other small cap stocks that better fit this description. However, the potential for QDEL's growth is enormous. In an emerging market like rapid medical diagnostics, we may not see the really significant profits for a while yet. Much of QDEL's future will be determined by how much technology it can patent and how well it can defend it's patents. So far, their performance in this area has been pretty weak. I really hope they learned a good lesson about intellectual property from the BD suit. This is not a stock for a quick buck. It's still a very high-risk stock, and we should be prepared to see much more volitility before any significant increases.
