In a jam-packed week of earnings, the Club executed multiple trades and elevated price targets for some of our biggest stocks. Following AMD's better-than-feared Q2 release late Tuesday, we raised our price target on the stock to $135 per share from $120. Wednesday On this relatively calm day, we reiterated our 1 rating and $110 price target on shares of Emerson Electric (EMR).

We are buying 225 shares of GE Healthcare (GEHC), at roughly $76.84 each, and 45 shares of Microsoft (MSFT), at roughly $334.26 apiece. The first position we are adding to is GE Healthcare Technologies . GE Healthcare fared much better than Dutch peer Phillips, which last week said its orders fell 8% in the second quarter. The difference in the two order rates suggests GE Healthcare is gaining market share. The medical-technology firm is seeing good momentum in its business, partly because many health-care providers are investing to improve patient care and productivity.

July 25 (Reuters) - GE HealthCare Technologies Inc (GEHC.O) raised its annual profit forecast on Tuesday, after beating quarterly earnings estimates due to easing supply chain issues that had largely impacted electronic components during the pandemic. Johnson & Johnson (JNJ.N) and Abbott Laboratories (ABT.N), which make medical devices like heart stents and implants, surpassed quarterly profit estimates last week as patients underwent their delayed procedures. GE HealthCare on Tuesday reported total quarterly sales of $4.8 billion, in line with analysts' estimates. Of this, $2.6 billion came from sales of imaging devices such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and $839 million from ultrasound devices. The healthcare equipment firm operates four medical device businesses - imaging and ultrasound devices, patient care solutions and pharmaceutical diagnostics - with imaging being the largest.

GE Healthcare (GEHC) shares are sliding Thursday, giving Club members an opportunity to invest in the medical-technology company at an increasingly attractive valuation. The noise around this transaction seems to be dragging down GE Healthcare shares. Thursday's declines push GE Healthcare shares below our cost basis of $79.47, which typically is a welcome development for a newer, smaller position. Essentially, what's happening now is General Electric is exchanging more than a quarter of its GEHC shares in a deal with Morgan Stanley. So, it's hardly a surprise to see General Electric monetizing some of its GE Healthcare stake to improve its balance sheet.

In a research note published last week, Kostin updated that study to look at the track records of more recent spinoffs, completed over the past two years. "However, while 11 of the 20 spinoffs completed during 2022 outperformed the S & P 500 since transaction completion, only six of the spinoffs outperformed their parent entities." The largest completed deal in 2022 was General Electric' s spin off of GE HealthCare , a $26 billion business. The next largest completed deal last year was Intel's spinoff of Mobileye , which wrapped up on Oct. 26, 2022 . In 2021, the value of the completed spinoffs hit $112 billion, and included Dell's spinoff of VMWare , the largest deal at $57 billion.

The Greater New York Hospital Association (GNYHA) warned on May 4 of temporary supply shortages of GE Healthcare's iodinated contrast media - specifically its Omnipaque products made in Shanghai. "We are working around the clock to expand capacity of our iodinated contrast media products," a GE spokesperson said after the company had to close its Shanghai facility for several weeks due to local COVID policies. GE Healthcare has four contrast media manufacturing facilities, including the one in Shanghai. A spokesperson for Bayer (BAYGn.DE), which competes with GE Healthcare in contrast media, said it is not facing a similar situation.
