I don't think that I ever said that BSX was cheap (it may well be). What I said is that they have been acting much better lately, compared to itself as well as the market in general.

One thing that I look for is whether the stock is under accumulation (remembering that this can be classic ECON 101 in regards to supply and demand) and I think that it is. Besides the improvements in OBV, I think that the accumulation index from Investors Daily ranks it as a "B" (that was a couple of weeks ago).

I also like the fact that the stock reacted favorably to the recent earnings announcement which included raising EPS guidance. I also think that some of the technical indicators are looking promising (higher highs, higher lows, 50 avg flat and ready to start moving upwards).

We currently own a fair amount with at an average price of approx 12.50 and I intend to buy more once it gets above $13 (Dec and early Feb highs).

Hope this helps
