Any Buys or Sells in your coverage recently?

Yes, we currently have a Buy rating on Immucor (Nasdaq: BLUD), with a $35 target price. Immucor develops, manufactures, and sells a complete line of automated systems and reagents used in a number of tests to detect certain properties of the cell and serum components of human blood prior to blood transfusion. The additional worldwide placements of Galileo continue to help drive Immucors growth, and instrument placements are expected to be further driven by the successful launch of Echo.
