Changes At CVS To Benefit Becton, Dickinson and Co.


I had an alert come in yesterday that Caremark is bringing BD pen needles and insuling syringes into their preferred formulary lists. A formulary is a list of medications that your insurance plan will cover, and specifies varies drugs that are "preferred", and you can obtain for lower prices. I have a lot of good things to say about the BD brand.

Also, I have an update on one of the Life Cross sell recommendations:


The chart can't catch everything, but it is a work in progress. The Life Cross gave a sell rating on Mercadolibre only a few short weeks ago, and it turned out that may have been too soon, as the company brought in a solid earnings beat yesterday.

That said, I still think there's added risk in the high price, but there is more than one way to get your hands on some Mercadolibre ownership at a good price:
