The individuals behind the Nanox pump

I was referred to a writeup by a self-described stock marker nerd and writer for the The Motley Fool (thanks Nibbler @AuntMinnie).  

While this thing probably deserves a complete reply here, let's just focus on four lines there:

  • Ma = brightness
  • KvP = speed of electron emission 
  • both are positively correlated w/radiation exposure 
  • specifically: KvP of 40 & Ma of 1.5 for $NNOX vs. typical levels of 50-60 & 3-5 respectively 

By looking at each of these lines, anyone with basic understanding of how X-rays are generated, detected, and used in diagnostics should immediately realize that the individuals who authored and edited that piece have no idea what they are writing about, or pretend to have no idea.
