One Comment on “Stock In Focus – TAM Stock Screener – United Therapeutics Corporation (NASDAQ: UTHR)”

  1. Hi Tobias,
    In the past, I’ve purchased stocks that currently show to be undervalued (e.g. EVC, MCK and others) just to see the stocks plummet over 40% after they already showed undervalued in the screener. After looking further into it, there were some fundamental issues on the stock which I didn’t catch at the time. In the case of EVC, it was because every 4 years the world cup increases sales. About 6 months later the parent company took all the gains.

    I know I should have done more research but that was a lesson learned.
    Thanks for your work,

    Americo
