Q: I have been following this company for the last couple of weeks, & they supposedly have had several companies sign on to their product line. The stock has gone from approx. $1.00 to $.15 cents, with my limited understanding for financial statements it appears revenue has gone up considerably. What don't I understand here.? I understand this is a very risky stock, but I still am interested, but cautious. Do you have any suggestions how to get further information on their sales or patent, or anything else you can supply me with would be greatly appreciate.
Thank you very much for your great service

JNJ is considered a healthcare stock but PG is consumer goods. Doesn't a lot of their revenue come from similar product lines?
Is JNJ healthcare because they market directly to health professionals?
