      Keine weltbewegende Nachricht.
      Watson halte ich fuer durchaus interessant.
      Wenn du dir den 3 JAhreschart ansiehts wirst du feststellen das die wieder alte höhen erklimmen. Vergleichbare Firmen sind Andrx IVAX TEVa und Biovail. Der Kurs von Watson ist gegenueber den anderen Firmen etwas zurueckgebliieben. Haegt vermutlich(ist aber nur Sekulation) mit dem Einbruch zusammen. Konnte leider bislang nicht herausfinden woran das damals gelegen hat.
      Mal sehen was sich in den naechsten Wochen da tut. Grundsätzlich eine sehr solide Sache.

      mitie, finde es gut, dass du eine aktie wie watson interessant findest, denn selber denken macht reich. ;)

      wenn du eine allgemeine diskussion über generika interessant findest, dann schau doch einfach im thread "ein ganzes segment von einem hoch zum anderen- und keinen interessiert´s" nach, bringe evtl. eigenes wissen und meinung ein.

      im übrigen bin ich auch hier gigaloosers meinung, dass es sich in diesem bereich um eine sehr zukunftsträchtige branche handelt.
      andere werte aber immer mit beobachten, da einige den trend der anderen vorzugeben scheinen.

      Watson to Pursue Strategic Alternatives for Schein`s Two Sterile Injectable ...
      CORONA, Calif., Sep 5, 2000 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- Watson Pharmaceuticals,Inc. (NYSE: WPI) announced today its intent to seek strategic alternatives, including the possible divestiture, for its two sterile injectable manufacturing facilities in Phoenix, Arizona and Cherry Hill, New Jersey. The Phoenix and Cherry Hill facilities were recently acquired in connection with Watson`s acquisition of Schein Pharmaceutical, Inc., which was completed on August 28, 2000.

      Watson further confirmed that it intends to continue its sales and marketing programs for INFeD(R) and Ferrlecit(R). Although INFeD(R) is currently manufactured at the Phoenix facility, Watson commented that it would consider a contract manufacturing arrangement for INFeD(R) as part of its plans for the Phoenix facility. Ferrlecit(R) is already being produced for Watson by a contract manufacturer, Aventis.

      "As we continue to expand our business operations, we remain focused on our strategic initiatives for growth," began Watson`s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Allen Chao, Ph.D. "We believe this decision will allow us to concentrate our energies, efforts and resources on our current operations, maximizing the value-creation capabilities of our strong core businesses and our proven expertise in manufacturing solid dosage form products," he added.

      To assist in the evaluation of possible alternatives for the Phoenix and Cherry Hill facilities, Watson has retained the investment banking firm of CIBC World Markets to handle all inquiries and related matters.

      Watson Pharmaceuticals, Inc., headquartered in Corona, CA, is engaged in the development, manufacture and sale of proprietary and off-patent pharmaceutical products. Watson pursues a strategy of generating revenue through established proprietary and off-patent businesses, capitalizing on its proven ability to support the development and commercialization of a broad range of proprietary and off-patent pharmaceutical products.

      New England Journal of Medicine Study Reports that Testosterone Skin Patch Improves Sexual Functioning in Surgically Menopausal Women
      BOSTON, Sept. 6 /PRNewswire/ -- A multi-institutional research group has found that use of an experimental testosterone skin patch can relieve impaired sexual functioning in surgically menopausal women -- that is, women who have had their ovaries removed before natural menopause. The report in the Sept. 7 New England Journal of Medicine comes from a team led by researchers from the Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) and Watson Laboratories, Inc.-Utah, a division of Watson Pharmaceuticals (NYSE: WPI - news), the developers of the patch.

      BOSTON (Reuters) - Testosterone patches can help restore the sex drive of women whose ovaries have been removed, researchers report in Thursday`s New England Journal of Medicine.

      Testosterone is best known as a male hormone, but it is also produced in small amounts in a woman`s adrenal glands and the ovaries, which also make the ``female`` hormone estrogen.

      When women have both their ovaries removed, doctors usually offer estrogen treatment to prevent hot flashes, osteoporosis and heart disease. But doctors do not try to replace the lost testosterone, which women need to maintain energy levels, keep muscle mass and retain a strong libido.

      The study, funded by Procter and Gamble Pharmaceuticals (NYSE:PG - news) and conducted by Watson Laboratories (NYSE:WPI - news) and Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH), was part of a Phase II clinical trial for the patch. Phase II trials determine if a treatment actually works as expected.
      (Ende der Mitteilung)

      Also: Watson hat überall ein wenig die Finger drin und ist glücklicherweise auch immer erfolgreich. Der Artikel ist jedoch sicherlich nicht der Auslöser für die hervorragende Performance der letzten Tage und besonders heute.

      RESEARCH ALERT- Watson Pharmaceuticals lowered
      NEW YORK, Sept 13 (Reuters) - Donaldson Lufkin Jenrette said analyst Kenneth Kulju on Wednesday reduced his earnings projections on Watson Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NYSE:WPI - news) after the company warned of sharply lower-than-expected profits for the near-term related to its recent acquisition of Schein Pharmaceutical Inc.

      -- Kulju said in a research note that he reduced third-quarter, fourth-quarter, and fiscal year 2000 earnings per share estimates to $0.04 from $0.47, to $0.38 from $0.54, and to $1.28 from $1.87 respectively.

      -- Additional details were not immediately available.

      -- Shares of Watson fell to $52 in pre-opening trading on Wednesday from a close of $64-1/8. The company cited higher costs and reduced product sales resulting from the Schein acquisition.

      WPI: Watson Pharmaceuticals Cautions on Earnings
      By TSC Staff

      9/13/00 7:52 AM ET



      Watson Pharmaceuticals (WPI:NYSE - news) yesterday cautioned investors that it would report third-quarter cash earnings between 12 to 14 cents a share and GAAP earnings between 3 to 5 cents a share.

      The 10-analyst estimate forecasts the company to post a 48-cent profit for the quarter. Watson blamed weak product sales associated with its purchase of Schein Pharmaceuticals, as well as pricing competition and operating expenses on the earnings shortfall.
