Avondale adds another high-end analyst in Beantown
Posted on June 8, 2009 at 9:38 amWell-known analyst Kemp Dolliver has joined the Avondale team. Dolliver, who will serve as a senior research analyst and managing director covering health care services, joins the firm from Cowen & Co.
Dolliver brings more than 20 years of sell- and buy-side experience to his position. The Wall Street Journal has recognized him four times in its Best on the Street survey for stock-picking, including the most recent edition released last month. He has built a long track record of unique insights, including forecasting consolidation between pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) and retail drug stores.
Dolliver joins Avondale from Cowen and Company, based in Boston, where he was senior analyst and managing director responsible for the healthcare providers sector. Prior to Cowen, he was at TradeStreet Investment Associates, part of NationsBank Corp. He joined NationsBank from Aetna Life & Casualty Company, where he was a securities analyst for six years. He also was an investment banker for Dean Witter Reynolds Inc., specializing in mergers and acquisitions.
Late last month, Avondale’s Boston office added another senior research analyst.
Southwest’s new Boston routes may open possibilities
Posted on February 19, 2009 at 6:09 pmThe same day we learn that Delta is offering a new route from Nashville to the west, Southwest Airlines announces it will start serving Boston’s Logan Airport, though it won’t say yet where it will fly from there. We have already heard from one hopeful frequent-flyer who wondered whether Nashville might not be a nice central location for one of the eight to 12 flights a day Southwest is initially planning.
An expert chatting with a Boston Globe blogger offers little reason to entertain hopes of a direct flight at this stage. BWI, Chicago Midway and Philadelphia top his list of likely destinations, followed by Orlando and Vegas. Even if we have to connect through Philly, though, the new route may make a cheap weekend outing to Red Sox Nation more feasible.
