Investment Highlights

MCLN and Vestera announced in late September a co-marketing agreement between both companies, marking a strategic partnership that both companies expect will further expand operations and better provide the healthcare industry with the most effective, automated solution that addresses pharmaceutical waste management to control increasing costs and facilitate environmental responsibility.

Vestara’s EcoRex Automated Pharmaceutical Waste Management System uses barcode technology, which is already widely used in hospitals, to track drug utilization to prevent medication mistakes. The system uses an active database of more than 180,000 National Drug Code (NDC) products to instantly categorize pharmaceutical waste at the time of presentation, eliminating human error and potential cross contamination.

MCLN is trading above its 50 day moving average. This is considered to be the sign of a bullish trend. There is added weight to this indication because the moving average is rising and suggests that there has been buying interest in this stock.

MCLN’s recent volatility has been greater than normal. This is evidenced by the increased distance between the upper and lower Bollinger Bands. These bands measure volatility using standard deviation and a large width is due to high volatility. Additionally, MCLN is trading above its upper Bollinger Band. Relative to recent price action, the stock is currently overextended and due for either a pause or retracement.

The MACD for MCLN currently indicates a strong bullish signal for two reasons. First, the MACD is above the signal line, a 9day moving average. Second, the MACD is above 0 which implies that the underlying moving averages are trending higher.
