The Chart of the Day belongs to Vascular Solutions (VASC). I found the medical products stock by using Barchart to sort today's All Time High list first for the most frequent number of new highs in the last month, then again for technical buy signals of 80% or more. Since the Trend Spotter signaled a buy in 11/11 the stock gained 11.78%.
Vascular Solutions Inc. manufactures, markets and sells the Vascular Solutions Duett sealing device, which enables cardiologists and radiologists to rapidly seal the puncture site following catheterization procedures such as angiography, angioplasty and stenting. Its product combines a simple balloon catheter delivery mechanism with a powerful, proprietary procoagulant. The company believes its product offers advantages over both manual compression and the three other FDA-approved devices used to seal the puncture site following the catheterization.
