These guys are on a shopping spree, buying out lots of old age homes... there is a great advantage to size in this industry and AMED are implementing the right strategy. besides good management this field is about to explode as baby boomers in the US are retiring and will be needing old age care very soon.
I've been up 15% on this stock in the past 2 months which is saying a lot in current shitty market conditions.
Cheers everybody.
