Stockpickr Staff	Also nominated for Best Picture is the loose adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald's short story "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button." In the film version, star Brad Pitt ages in reverse, born an old man and reverting to infancy. Anti-aging favorite Botox is made by Allergan (AGN), which closed down 49 cents, or 1.2%, at $40.16. And for a play on the buttons of the movie's title, take a look at crafts retailer Jo-Ann Stores (JAS), down 2.8%, or 36 cents, at $12.45.	Love	February 25, 2009

barrons2	Or how about Allergan (AGN)? That was a $20 billion company that is down to $16 billion in dollars and about $12 billion as a translation to euros.	Love	May 08, 2008
barrons2	Q: What's your next pick? A: The last part is breast implants, 8% of sales, which is probably the most likely to be impacted by the economy. They have been growing market share against their single U.S. competitor, Mentor (MNT). The stock is at 58, but I think it's worth 75 on a discounted cash-flow basis. Like with Allergan, the economic impact is not nearly as significant as people think. Based on consensus numbers for '08, it's trading at 22.5 times, which isn't that expensive.	Love	April 05, 2008

Ehilo	Alllegran - the future is allergenic	Love	July 22, 2007
Branded Growth	The baby boomer agewave makes this an ideal pick. Botox and Juvaderm are both "non-reimbursed" (not re-imbursed by HMO's) out of pocket expenses which makes it extremely profitable for Alleragn. In addition, their recent purchase of a plastic surgery supply company and a laprocopic band company (to treat the obese) makes AGN one of the most profitable ways to play the growing plastic surgery maketplace and our need to retain our youthful looks as we age.
