the year prior to its merger with coms, usrx was followed by an analyst at oppenheimer who gave it a 140 dollar price target. that year, oppenheimer highlighted usrx as one of its most recommended stocks based on this analyst's work. This analyst pounded the table again and again. Right before the merger, he changed firms and everyone knows that usrx never hit 140 and in fact never hit 100 again during that pre-merger year. that guy was pounding the table all the while prbably knowing that robotics faltering. but he got out of oppenheimer didn't he -- just before the s--t hit the fan. so ... i take these pronouncements, too, with a big grain of salt.
