iRobot Corporation (IRBT)

The IRBT-Raytheon Robotic 3D printer is going to be a part of this trend where low level manufacturing robots replace human workers. It's a given that filing for unemployment is going to be more than the norm for those workers that do not take education seriously.

The RP-VITA is going to be bigger than we know once the "Affordable Care Act" starts ripping away hospital reimbursement rates. This is going to bring material revenues for IRBT. Also, look at the trends in medicine: mid-level providers (e.g. Nurse Practitioner's, Physician Assistants) are replacing doctors...why? because they are less expensive to employ in our health system. The patient will lose in the long run with less qualified mid-level providers supplying patient care, but the RP-Vita at least provides an opportunity for the best trained provider, i.e. a physician, to diagnose a patient. Doctor shortages and the under-estimation of the huge "Affordable Care Act" costs will propel tremendous sales of the RP-VITA.

The market is starting to realize the macro robotic trends in our economy and IRBT is going to become one of the bigger guns in this industry.
