ctxs & vvus have several things incommon .... single product companys both have a product that their customers want and won't wait for the big guys (msft & pfe) to develope and bring to market. Both have been driven down too low due to fear. Rode CTXS from 12 to 72 in 1997 now riding VVUS (this week from 13).......it's on the move up..... look at the charts....expect MCA approval for Muse in Feb aswell as certification by FDA on new plant (6 times larger than current plant) in March. The one thing that also hurt vvus was they moved one of their production lines to the new plant to expidite the FDA certification.... until the new plant is online they will be hard pressed to keepup with product demand....stockpile product till FDA certifies. Both companies have product that will sell worldwide... vvus eps 1997 $1.11 1998 analyst expect $1.56 and $2.85 in 1999..... CTXS just announced a 3/2 stock split...........vvus will see a return to old highs just as ctxs did in 1997.....
