Sr. Analyst

Fundamental Analysis   Technical Analysis   Product Review  

Firstly, TMO is a well run company that's been pretty much #1 in their buisness for years. They continue to aggressively market and promote their products despite the fact that in most cases they are the exclusive supplier of their products to their buyers. The stock has been steadily growing and has found support at it's latest high and I expect it to go higher, following its trend.

The most important thing about this stock is that I expect grants for science to increase rapidly over the next few years as the administration changes in Washington. The USA is losing its stronghold on academic science and I believe that the politicians will pump funding into the NSF and NIH to try and compensate for this. Because TMO offers so many different basic research products more money into science, both in academia and in private industry, means more profits for them.
