Small Health Care Stocks

Barron’s has a good article on small health care companies. The article focuses on two stocks, Kyphon and IntraLase, however the entire sector has a lot going for it. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services expect health care spending to climb 7.3% annually, through 2013. Also, Standard & Poor’s expects small-cap health stocks to see their earnings grow by 20% a year for the next five years, compared with 12% for large-cap health care stocks.
