Another analyst upped MDT target price. Look for alot more upgrades as we move forward. MDT will get approval on the Jewel AF defib device in a couple months (maybe weeks). This maybe the "old" MDT reinvented!!!!!. The biggest things from the recent announcements are: 1. S670 stent approved with Rapid exchange technology. This is HUGE. 2. Analyst are starting to see that the R&D is paying off bigtime. 3. All six aquisitions have been integrated and will pay dividends as we move forward. This is big news as MDT spent approx $8B. Good luck to all, Mike RESEARCH ALERT - Medtronic price target upped NEW YORK, Nov 23 (Reuters) - Deutsche Banc Alex.
