$CERS Went long, many positives: -Strong moat, minimal competition, regulatory protection, and monopoly in many countries. -Baker brothers own >10% + added in 2023. -In late 2023, directors bought stock + high CEO ownership. -Compensation tied to performance in operations and financials. -BARDA supports R&D = a ton of free value for shareholders. -The inventory buildup and shelf-life issues from 2023 have now resolved and inventories are drawn = expect YOY growth in 2024. -Cut back on operating expenses in 23 = expanding margins in 2024. Q4 financial statement was the best in its recent history. -Achieved breakeven on adj EBIDTA in Q4 and to be sustained through 24 = closer to cash breakeven.

$CERS Craig-Hallum starts Cerus at Buy, sees shares more than doubling Craig-Hallum initiated coverage of Cerus with a Buy rating and $5 price target. The analyst says Cerus plays a critical role in the U.S. and global blood supply system. The firm estimates 80% to 85% of all blood centers in the U.S. use the company's Intercept Blood System, and that 60% to 65% of all U.S. transfused platelets are treated with this technology. The firm sees Cerus returning to growth in 2024 and finds the stock's risk/reward compelling at current share levels. Hallum believes the stock should more than double over the next 12 months.

$CERS Looks like it might close green today. Congratulations to anyone who successfully traded this one. I would sincerely appreciate it if anyone could offer insight into the bull thesis here. Cathie Wood looks to be accumulating, but that does not guarantee anything. How does the technology compete with existing products? Do the long-term prospects seem promising? I have only received messages about the usual bull vs. bear hate-rhetoric. It would be so nice to hear someone articulate why they are bullish here. Thanks in advance.

Today's Pick #3: Despite a drop in stock price and a sell rating from Argus Research, $OSUR outperformed earnings expectations and demonstrated revenue growth, leading to debate about the stock being oversold.
