Wells Fargo is confident GE HealthCare can benefit from the growth of a key Alzheimer's drug.
The firm initiated coverage of the medical device provider with an overweight rating and a $90 per share price target.
Analyst Larry Biegelsen highlighted the growth of Alzheimer's drug Leqembi as a potential growth driver for GE HealthCare, given that the treatment requires four MRI scans throughout the process.
Shares of GE HealthCare have gained more than 20% this year.
