Globus Medical price target raised to $77 from $75 at BTIG

BTIG analyst Ryan Zimmerman raised the firm’s price target on Globus Medical to $77 from $75 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares as part of a broader research note on Medical Technology names. Despite more clarity from the Fed around rate cuts and small-caps in the sector have seen some rally, there may still be some trepidation by investors as to what comes next beyond the first rate cut, which may explain why large caps have continued to work in spite of an easing interest rate environment, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The procedure environment is healthy, and even though there is an overarching fear that volumes will slow in 2025, particularly within orthopedics, the firm is “incrementally more bullish” on capital equipment demand within U.S. healthcare, BTIG added.
