- I'm interested in getting (informed) opinions on Acuson, maker of medical
- ultrasound equipment. It currently trades around $14, way down from its
- 52-week high in the low 30s, with a trailing PE of ~11.
-
- Part of the reason for last year's slowdown in earnings growth was the
- company's increased spending on R&D and customer support, which I believe
- will benefit them long-term.
-
- Anyone who follows this company care to share their opinions?
-
- Thanks for you input.
