sector rotation at year end during tax selling etc. is not a valid trading stat. with hedge fund deleveraging, redemptions, mutual fund tweaking etc. trading trends can be potholes if used to buy/sell/short.

Hospital puts off building renovations to buy CyberKnife

Margaret Sabin, chief executive officer at Penrose-St. Francis Health Centers, said, “We are buying a new CyberKnife program for the cancer center. We decided that that program directly benefited patients — it is state of the art technology. But to do it, we had to put off some building renovations. We decided to focus on health care and patient needs — the rest we’ll make do without.”
