Lake Street analyst Brooks O'Neil attributes the recent selloff in shares of Tandem Diabetes (TNDM) to investor fears related to the potential implications of "Medicare For All." Yesterday, the decline also appeared to "draw fuel from the strong growth" Abbott (ABT) reported for its Libre glucose monitor for diabetics, O'Neil tells investors in a research note titled "Fire Sale. Should You Buy? Yes. There Is No Fire. Affirm BUY, $100 PT." The analyst doubts the healthcare system will be changed significantly and on Libre, he says, "We're sorry, but we believe investors are either badly confused or just plain wrong." Abbott offers a low-cost version of the monitoring system but does not compete in any way with Tandem in its pump market, says the analyst. Rather, O'Neil thinks there are "potentially significant positives" for Tandem Diabetes related to the "enormous success" of Abbott's Libre franchise. The analyst sees an "extraordinarily positive" outlook for Tandem Diabetes and recommends buying the shares on the recent pullback. He affirms a Buy rating on the shares with a $100 price target.
