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.

PAST TOP PICK

Stryker Corp.(SYK)

Feb 03, 2022
(A Top Pick Feb 11/21, Up 4%) Came under pressure, as it's classified higher growth. Still likes their business, as everything in those operating rooms is made by Stryker. Main area of growth is robotic surgery. Wage and cost inflation. Sees perhaps slower capex. Very well run.

73% of their business is in the US plus 21% in developed markets and 6% in emerging, so there's more EM growth to come. Also, elective surgeries were put on hold during Covid, so there's a big backlog to come. Also aging demographics are a tailwind. Also, surgeons remain loyal to their surgical products.

(A Top Pick Oct 02/20, Up 34%) This was recommend before vaccines. This company benefits from elective surgery. These surgeries were not happening then. Expects them to report record earnings in 2021. Better days lie a head. Benefits from the aging population. Has intimate relationships with doctors. It is also a platform that is good at acquiring businesses.

Has long held this. They produce medical devices for hips, knees and spines. The sector fell off during lockdowns due to no or few elective surgeries, however that is rebounding. Also, this is a demographic play as the population ages and needs such surgeries. Also, doctors stay loyal to a brand of medical devices. Trades at 25x earnings and has $3.7 billion in free cash.

Not overly bullish on healthcare as a whole, as its growth may be less attractive. Likes medical devices, with a built-in backlog due to Covid. He owns SYK. There should be a significant pickup in procedures over the next 2 years. SYK has strong earnings growth, near a 1-year high. Also look at IHI, the medical devices ETF, packed with companies leading the healthcare sector.

They produce medical devices for hips, knees, hands and ankles. Elective surgeries are coming back after pandemic lockdowns. SYK's medical products reduce medical stays and drug use, which benefits American hospitals and patients. Again demographics are another tailwind. He expects good growth.
