Shares soar on new technology
Article Abstract:
AorTech International has acquired rights for a heart monitoring system which should help the company to gain a large stake in the market due to its superior performance. The product uses mass heat transfer methods which is less prone to errors and more responsive. The Food and Drug Administration has approved one version of the device, and is likely to approve a new version with a small change, prior to Mar 2000. The company has carried out a stock placing to help fund growth. The stock price has risen, with further rises possible, especially since AorTech could be an attractive takeover target.

Buy the shares but not the goods
Article Abstract:
Prices for a number of goods, including computers, CDs and cars are especially expensive in the United Kingdom. Investors should benefit, though consumers do not. Retailers such as DFS may offer interest free credit but not lower prices to buyers who do not consider this option. Supermarkets such as Tesco and Sainsbury may not pass on all manufacturers' discounts to consumers.
