Sleep…Checking in on an Old Trend

I have struggled with sleep lately. Nothing new. I have chronicled sleep on my blog forever and Wallstripped the leaders . There is always lots of buzz about sleep .

That made me pull up the sleep stocks and sure enough, Respironics (RESP) is at another all-time high. Resmed (RMD) is coming back from a spring swoon and even Sanofi-Aventis is near all-time highs despite Ambien going off patents (I now use the knockoffs).

I have owned them all at some point and still own some RESP in my fund, which has been sold down over the last few years, but likely to remain in my portfolio for many years. I am tempted to add more. What an amazing stock that few have ever heard of.
