Truist analyst Richard Newitter raised the firm’s price target on Intuitive Surgical (ISRG) to $640 from $570 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares as part of a broader research note previewing 2025 in Medical Technology. The firm sees the sector as “one of the better/safer houses” in healthcare given its lower “front-line” exposure to healthcare policy rhetoric that is tied to the administration change as well as its position as an “innovation segment” with sustainable above-average revenue and EPS growth, strong balance sheets, and healthy free cash flows. Truist adds that it prefers small-mid size companies over large caps as M&A may be “poised to heat up”.
