Corporate Webpages Allscripts-Misys Healthcare Solutions Inc.
Allscripts is a medical information company. It provides
software services that help improve medical records and provide
feedback to patients. One of its major functions is to allow
doctors to enter prescription information over networks and also
find patient drug history, interactions, and generic alternatives.
Just how important this can be was brought home to one of our
traders who had Kaiser Permanente doctors prescribing pills
while the Kaiser pharmacist was handing out brochures with the
pills that clearly indicated they should not be taken with each
other. Kaiser's director at a local hospital said they "would
look into it and get their pharmacists and doctors on the same wavelength."
Allscripts serves 700 hospitals, thousands of clinics and 150,000 physicians.
In 2008, the company merged with the British company Misys PLC.
It should be noted that Misys PLC holds more than 50% of the
outstanding shares of Allscripts. We feel that this situation
has contributed to the CEO holding too large an amount of
exercisable stock option perquisites and that corporate
governance is therefore poor by that standard as well as who is
on (independence of) the Board of Directors. One might note
also that there is practically no news whatsoever on this
company, except that related to its stock trends. That suggests
there is no active PR department for investor relations. We
also noted stock options for this company appear to be selling
at a high premium with implied volatility running well above
historical volatility. This would be a time to be a writer of options.
From the company's website and reports, it is evident it is
relying heavily upon President Obama's stimulus packages,
especially the "American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009"
which is going to spend a lot of money improving electronic
health records. The immediate future looks bright for Allscripts.
Our two favorite research entities are divided on Allscripts,
Market Grader giving it a "buy" while Street.Com is not so sure.
Recent reports and financial information have changed
substantially the company's prospects.
We also note that institutions are net sellers of this stock.
But the stock has been beaten down a bit of late, and technical
indicators suggest that oscillator indicators might work well.
The company has a very strong fundamentals-based Zenith Index and
yet it has low intrinsic value due to growth rates, and we were
unhappy with the p/e amd price/sales ratios, so there is an anamoly.

Zenith uses the "sentiment" score above or below 50 to award a positive or negative point in the Decision Matrix.

Short Interest Ratio |
As the short interest rises as a percentage of average daily share volume (Days to Cover), this is considered a measure of negative sentiment. Similarly, a decrease in that percentage is considered positive sentiment.

The summary below includes a value for `Degree,' which refers on a
scale of 1 to 10 the range of a channel in the period under consi-
deration compared to the total range of price movement. It also looks
for the last closing price to be within the channel, otherwise zeroed.
The `Index' is the `Degree' weighted for volatility. Generally, the
the higher the index, the more suitable is the stock for trading as
a `rolling stock' between channel high and low points.

"Neurostock" can only track long trades. Therefore its performance, as tracked by itself on stocks which are consistently falling, may not appear as good as it could if each "sell" signal were a "short sale."
