#6 - Intuitive Surgical (NASDAQ:ISRG)
Intuitive Surgical Inc. (NASDAQ: ISRG) is a leader in robotic-assisted surgical systems. The company’s da Vinci robots are a popular choice among surgeons for their accuracy, flexibility, and the visualization they provide.
Robotic-assisted surgery is gaining acceptance. That acceptance comes at a price that could be impacted by higher interest rates. But that doesn’t seem to be the case for Intuitive Surgical, which is posting impressive year-over-year revenue and margin growth.
It’s also the reason why investors may want to wait for a better entry point before buying ISRG stock, which is up 34% in 2024. This has just pushed the company’s stock higher in the last 12 months, pushing it to the top of its 52-week range, and short interest has increased by 20% in the last month.
On the other hand, on July 19, 2024, analysts from Stifel Nicolas and JPMorgan Chase & Co. increased their price targets for ISRG stock to $475 and $495, respectively.
