This summary was created by AI, based on 7 opinions in the last 12 months.

Stryker Corp (SYK) is recognized as a leader in orthopedic procedures, particularly in hips and knees, with expectations of regaining market share after a tough year linked to overall health sector weaknesses and a cybersecurity incident. While there is an acknowledgment of a broader weakness in the medtech industry, many experts highlight Stryker's strong relationships with healthcare professionals and its consistent market share gains from competitors like Johnson & Johnson. Analysts project long-term growth driven by an aging population and advancements in robotic-assisted surgeries, which are expected to significantly boost the company's orthopedics segment. Concerns remain about short-term performance, but the long-term outlook is generally optimistic, making Stryker an attractive investment based on its valuation and growth potential.

Stryker Corp.(SYK)

Feb 18, 2020
A good acquirer and integrator and have a good position in hip and knee replacement. They're aiming for 1,000 robotic installations worldwide, now at 850. They took a drop in their last purchase but they've bounced back. (Analysts’ price target is $232.92)

COMMENT

Stryker Corp.(SYK)

Feb 14, 2020

Investing in healthcare is hard. He holds BDX which he sees it as the shopping mall of healthcare products. He used to own ZBH but they suffered from recalls. He would probably stick to one of the three since he believes they are the best run companies in healthcare.

Medical devices are a good play on aging US demographics. SYK recently merged with a smaller company to consolidate their hips and knees products. He owns its peers including Boston Scientific, but the whole space is enjoying a nice upside. You can buy SYK.

SYK vs. Anthem He likes both. Stryker trades at 23x PE. He owns Anthem, which hit on earnings, but the market was skittish on their expense line. It's a great healthcare company

(A Top Pick Jan 04/19, Up 21%) The best, most innovative medical device company around. It's come off its highs recently as it acquired a spinal business, but it has room to run. It's long grown its earnings for many years. They excel at buying small companies specializing in hips, knees and spines.

A diversified medical devices company. They create a variety of equipment, including orthopaedics and robotic surgery. The company has executed very well. They recently made an acquisition that helps them move into hips, knees and ankles. There is volatility. He would enter around $205-210. (Analysts’ price target is $230.25)

Good demographic growth--people are getting older and need hip and knee replacement. They just bought a company that will make SYK the biggest company serving hands and ankles. Another plus is that doctors tend to stick with the same medical product manufacturers. They have $3 billion in free cash and pays a nice dividend. They constantly buy companies, but their debt is fine. (Analysts’ price target is $231.08)

SYK vs. JNJ SYK makes medical products while JNJ also produces that plus pharma and personal care products, but are fighting talcum powder lawsuits that will persist. Despite this, he much prefers JNJ due to better diversification and valuation. But wait for a better entry point.

The medical device sector has been a leading group for the last three years and he has been a big proponent. They are interesting because it is secular growth. Demographics support what these companies are doing. They are very defensible because they are not tied to the economic cycle. So long as growth performs well, he likes this group. He owns it through the medical devices ETF.
