Technical Analysis 
Sep 5, 2026, 12:00 amThis summary was created by AI, based on 8 opinions in the last 12 months.
Stryker Corp. (SYK) is a leading player in the medical device sector, particularly in orthopedics, with a notable 70% market share in the U.S. robotics platform. The company, which primarily generates its revenue from the U.S. market, is seen as well-positioned to capitalize on the aging population, as demand for hip, knee, shoulder, and spine procedures increases. Despite recent challenges, including a cybersecurity attack and overall weakness in the health sector, analysts are optimistic about SYK's recovery potential and growth trajectory. Furthermore, Stryker's solid relationships with medical professionals and a consistent dividend increase bolster the investment case. Most analysts express confidence in SYK's ability to achieve substantial earnings per share growth while maintaining an attractive valuation in a growing market.
It's a play on aging populations. It sold off on weakness in the medical device sectors, which is the time he bough it. He sees good growth.

Lyle Stein
He started buying this in 2021 when the stock got hammered during Covid, but recovered after it. SYK has been hammered this year because of overall weakness in the health sector. Also, SYK had a cybersecurity attack. SYK has the best relationships with doctors and is arguably the leader in medical devices. The valuation is attractive. Expects $15 EPS in 2027 at 20x PE. Is growing the topline 10%. The population is aging.
Main business is orthopedics, which is profitable for US hospitals. As artificial joints improve, more people opt for surgery rather than rehab. All of med tech in general has been weak (though he's not sure why).
Very well run. Consistently gaining market share from JNJ and ZBH. Cybersecurity incident in Q1, which impacted production. High quality. Revenue should grow high single digits for foreseeable future. Yield is 1.24%.
He hasn't seen valuations like this since 2020 briefly and 1993. Their big growth driver is orthopedics with robot-assisted surgeries, with growth expected to double over 5 years; robots account for roughly 45% of their orthopedics business.

Paul MacDonald5-year performance is 15%, creates returns on ROIC, well run, quality.
David DriscollDown along with the market. About 73% of revenues from US; rest is from other parts of the world, so lots of growth internationally. Very strong demographic play. Great company.
Paul Harris, CFA
It produces medical devices which is a good business to be in. The aging population needs their products and there is a backlog from Covid. Their products change the quality of life and reduce hospital stays to a couple of days. 71% of its business comes from the U.S. and there is lots of growth internationally.

Their robotics platform in medical devices has a 70% market share in the U.S., and has a recurring revenue stream. SYK feels it can make up for losses from the cyber attack by the end of the year. 75% of revenues are in the U.S. and 25% internationally. Will benefit from aging demographics (hip and knee replacement), but also shoulder and spine. Pays a 1% dividend which keeps increasing.
