Time for Abbott’s diagnostics wing seems to be just perfect. Investors pleased with gains , promising companion diagnostic deal with Idera , all adding up to company’s growth and glory in diagnostics. There were certain hiccups here and there , which involved slashing of jobs in certain operational units manufacturing diagnostic tools. However gains outrun the losses or fallbacks , where company had a lot to brag around Q2 gains , cheaper and quicker platform launches ( IRIDICA) and others.
Overall Abbott is on winning streak in Diagnostic space. Hope to add more of accomplishments and less of fall backs for the company in coming days.
