FPH - Fisher Paykel Healthcare.

Nothing is known about the status of recovered cases (it has taken a back seat to other efforts). importantly the US military has banned recovered coronavirus patients as recruits until more is known about lung function and other health issues.

There's a possibility there will be long term demand for these products even through 2030.

Nothing is known about the status of recovered cases (it has taken a back seat to other efforts). importantly the US military has banned recovered coronavirus patients as recruits until more is known about lung function and other health issues.

There's a possibility there will be long term demand for these products even through 2030.

Furthermore, there have been over 4 million cases worldwide so far & for those who have recovered, unfortunately in many cases there has been evidence of permanent lung damage to some degree.
That suggests a potentially massive increase in future demand for the sorts of products FPH make.

Covid19 is just a new & even more deadly one of a number of respiratory Coronaviruses to come along like SAARS & MERS. Governments will have to take the risk of new respiratory virus epidemics appearing in future much more seriously & ensure their hospitals are much better equipped to deal with future outbreaks. The low pressure oxygen delivery sleep apnea devices FPH make seem to be better for ventilating acute Covid patients than the standard hospital ventilators.

So I think demand will only increase & can't see it easing off in the slightest. Only question is the valuation but as a long term holder I'm happy with it.

According to The Herald, AIA reports that air-freighted exports of NZ respiratory products increased nearly 400% in March. Now who makes them, I wonder?

Dollar took a hit (-1.1%) on Friday so expect FPH to be a strong performer today (and wow what a run it has had). Will we see a new all time high closing price?

Interesting to see what FPH have been up to in a few days. SP increasing a bit in anticipation.

Will they beat their forecast, with all the increased demand brought about by Covid-19 virus ?
I guess all the hospitals around the world will want to stock up on respirators as well as ventilators.
