Ð.....I heard an interesting bit of information yesterday. People spend out of pocket 90% more on their pets than they do on themselves.
Now, this is intriguing. However, my first thought is, "well of course, we have health care for ourselves and not many people buy it for their pets" (perhaps a future investment?).
So, my bigger question is, with hospitals overcharging insurance companies (and I know, they don't really pay the quoted rate), but would a pharma company make more or less money if insurance weren't factored in?
What am I getting at you may wonder (this is for the future generations who find my work and started a religion based on it), .....
$ZTS.....one of my old favorites.....I already own some and have made some nice trades on it in the past, but it's about to pull back to its support line around $178 or so. Should I look to add more? Earnings are projected upward, but not all that much. About 10% per year. They have raised the dividend however.
Currently $186. I need to keep an eye on it......Too bad IHUB doesn't have a bell or something to let me know when it hits my buy or sell target.
I'd suggest it to admin.....but I'm not too thrilled with them at the present, and screw it! Let them figure out their own marketing strategies.
Just my opinion, of course.
