Shares of TASR up on New Orders
Excerpt from the InvestorGuide.com Stock of the Day on 2/14/2005

TASER International, Inc., a leader in advanced non-lethal devices, saw its stock price rise 11 percent on news of new orders of TASER'S X26 stun gun totaling $675,000. The orders came from police forces around the United States and one in Singapore. The news brings cheer for a company that last week stopped giving financial forecasts amid a slowdown in sales.

Last week the company announced lower-than-expected earnings and announced they would no longer give financial forecasts because future orders were to hard to predict. Earnings suffered because law enforcement agencies were testing out other rival products during the month of January. The company was also hurt by recent news of a death and heart attack related to the user of TASER's products, and the Chicago Police Department deciding to hold off on distributing any more tasers to its police force. Even with the negative news last week, the company was able to release positive news this week to attract investors to the stock. More >
