Smith & Nephew press release issued at 2:23 pm EDT, biz.yahoo.com exactly coincident with day's major run-up and volume. Then we had a bit of a retreat before closing strong. News did not mention ATIS so I'm not sure what the relationship was, but must be some connection. Maybe more news releases pending. Still does not explain why we had such a worrisome past few days.

Speculation abounds on this one. The company tells the shareholders nothing and does less than zero public relations. Nouricel is going to be a huge success. My Wife has even found it to be an effective treatment for Rosacea (better than prescriptions she has).

DG Approval was worthless without Medicare/Medicaid/Insurance Reimbursement. This could happen any day and could mean a tenfold increase in sales. Collagen Approval could mean a big media blitz from Inamed and instant orders of significant amounts of materials. If the Great Stock God wanted to reward us there is plenty of stuff waiting to happen. Even if the company says nothing eventually the financials will speak.
