h2 Zomedica, Another Hot Name In Pet Care/h2

Zomedica Pharmaceuticals Corp (NYSE:ZOM) is a development-stage diagnostic and pharmaceutical company with a focus on pets. That may seem odd but the pet care industry is worth upwards of $100 billion annually in the U.S. alone and growing at a mid-to-high-single-digit CAGR. Names like Chewy (NYSE:CHWY) and Freshpet (NASDAQ:FRPT) have seen their growth go off the charts and we expect the same for this company. Within the pet care industry, veterinarian and related services are the #2 category accounting for a third of all spending. The stock has seen some recent action due to events that 1) greatly improve the company’s liquidity position and 2) have it on track to begin sales of its first product this quarter. And then there is the Robin Hood factor. Investors (traders) at Robin Hood have been helping to pump this one higher so be sure to wait for pullbacks before making entries.
