Mike S. Newton, CIM FCSILife Technologies CorporationLIFETOP PICKSep 13, 2011

Owned in the past and it did him very well. One of the best and largest life sciences in the S&P 500. Once of the best assets in that space. A similar company was bought for a 40% premium. Government safety program, diagnostic equipment.

Life Technologies Corporation(LIFE)

Aug 14, 2012

(A Top Pick Sept 13/11. Up 19.62%.) Biotechnology, biopharmaceutical. Currently they are doing a DNA sequencing kit that is under $1000 and takes 2 weeks. Has considerable cash flow and great metrics. Wouldn’t be surprised if it got taken out by a private equity firm.
