Technical and Quantitative Research

Vermilion Research

Vermilion’s objective is to deliver timely, actionable, and unique technical research to professional investors through the application of our various technical indicators.

Our research strategists seek to highlight securities which we believe are at major inflection points, based on our various technical and quantitative indicators, and offer asymmetric risk/return profiles. Our unique research methodology, centered on relative strength, enables our strategists to deliver superior investment recommendations.

Our process begins by organizing the universe of actively traded stocks into discrete sectors, then into industry groups. We then apply our technical and quantitative tools to identify developing price trends. Once attractive trends are identified within a selected sector or group, we screen for individual stocks which we believe offer the best risk/reward profile. We provide a historical perspective that often reveals, through our long-term charts, how price patterns often repeat themselves over time.

Medical device firm priced IPO at $19.00 per share, sold ~8.2 million shares and raised net proceeds of more than $150 million. Inari Medical stock significantly outperformed when compared to peers and rose 300%+ since IPO. We believe Inari Medical can continue its growth trajectory over the next 3-4 years keeping in mind relocating into 120K sq. ft. facility in Irvine, California, what allows to more than double manufacturing capacity. Moreover, the company has already completed ClotTriever and FlowTriever cases across major countries in Western Europe and plans to expand into APAC region – China and Japan, in the foreseeable future.
