Technically speaking, the shares of CMED continue to catch aggressive bids intraday as the stock jumps to its September highs. While the ticker has underperfomed the broader SPX by 22%, it recently was able to bounce off the $11.50 level where it found support. It remains to be seen if CMED will maintain its PPS above the 2-month $11.50 -$12.50 range. If it can maintain it, and this depends if overall action in DOW remains constructive, it might be enough to lead its price to a further extension.
