What is interesting to me is the chemical analysis sector.It is smaller but has nice margins.I would like to hear from someone who works with A's mass spectroscopy and liquid chromatogrophy and consumables such as columns and supplies. SHeesh I hate being ignorant. <ggg> They are by far the largest player in that field, followed by J&W Scientific, Restek, Supelco, Alltech, Chrompack(Ductch), and SGE (Australian). I sell to most of these guys. There is even a rumor in the industry that the #2 player (J & W) is going to be bought by A, or become an exclusive supplier to them. This A division is located in Delaware. By all mean, very strong in Chromatography, as well as Mass Spectroscopy. All of this said, I am puzzled by the price behavior of this stock. We should be in 60s, and not 40. The only thing that is wrong with this stock is that I own some.
