Bob..ESCMF or LASRF. I am much more familiar with ESCMF. First off an extremely important factor to note: ESCMF has had its earnings estimate revised upward just in the last WEEK. It's a better intermediate hold and it is due for a nice breakout and continued acceleration. It also looks oversold as it sits below its 7,20, and 30 day moving average. Here are some other factors to consider: ESCMF: better known of course, in this country has enjoyed 5 straight quarters of 3 digit growth. It has an Insider rank of 88 (same as LASRF)and has had more growth with a price/sales ratio of 17.1 versus that of 3 for LASRF. ESCMF I've played for 2 earnings surprises and have had very good results. It has an EPS rank of 99 (!!). Volume Ratio 1/30 Day 255.3 95% EPS change last quarter of 127. 92% Price/Cash Flow Ratio 56.3 96% ERG 80 IT has Accumulations distribution rank of only 43 and its relative performance, moving average in the last 90 days has been unspectacular. LASRF: pretty much reversed.. Relative performance remarkable in the 6 week-1 year period Relative performance at a very high value 231% for calendar year Looks TECHNICALLY superior at least for next few trading session with MACD breakout, stochastics Volume Ratio 1/30 Day 64.4 67 Since it is LASRF that got the FDA approval, perhaps that will be the immediate gainer in the next 1-2 trading sessions, but for the longer haul, I prefer ESCMF. I'll just be watching them both in the morning.
