    Cash Is King: Accrual Earnings Stock Screen [view article]
    Aalan,

    I have found no screeners that have the Accrual Ratio as a a criteria, but this does not mean that you screen for it. You need to find a screener that allows you to create equations with balance sheet items.

    I use Reuters Knowledge, but this is not free.

    I understand your point, but it is possible to perform the ratio manually on a stock by stock basis. Good Luck!

    -Mark

    This is a terrific idea. My only problem is... where do I find a screener that has the accrual ratio listed as a criterion??

    Failing that, it's a good method for evaluating financial statements--doing the calculation by hand for a stock while researching it. But I'd love to have the luxury of just running a screen. Got one?

    Pfizer Should Buy Amgen or Wyeth - Credit Suisse [view article]
    do a bunch of small deals would be my option for Pfe! Pharma is changing away from mega deals like the Lipitor Deal they did several years ago. Reason being is Competition in a MC World. In a MC world formulary control becomes the driver.No one pays for a med w/ o proven benefit "Outcomes" in our Brave New World! So you mine for selected Targeted Therapies that you can adroitly market. I see this as the new Pharma paradigm. Watch Pfe buy the Mid Sized biotech who is completing Phase-3 and is before FDA pending approval on 1 or 2 candidates w/ 1 already on the market in an area that is compatible w/ their Marketing/Research Reply

    Cepheid is THE pure play on MRSA. On many Hospital aqcuired infections and soooo much more. They already have some drugs....diagnosis is the part that is slow now, until cepheid....

    Just to clarify:
    Encysive's drug Thelin is not intended to treat MRSA. It treats Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension. Its comparison to Theravance is simply to show that approvable letters can be bad for a company.

    What about spread prevention...Cepheid (CPHD) equipment allows 1-hr on-site nose-swab testing for MRSA (no lab required) of all hospital admissions. The equipment is in usse now at VA hospitals and allows for isolation of MRSA carriers as well as active MRSA cases. At least we might not catch MRSA in hospitals then. Reply

Their equipment is now VA hospitals and apparently having a strong preventative effect. Allows for isolation and treatment of carriers as well as those actually suffering from MRSA. Reply
