Our Final Perspective on NeuroMetrix

Whereas other companies under the medical devices industry are still a bit expensive, NeuroMetrix may offer a potential longer-term growth to institutional investors.

From a slightly different point of view, the entity appears to be overvalued. Our primary 90 days Buy-Hold-Sell recommendation on the company is Strong Sell.
