The company has positioned AI as a central element of its research and development strategy, employing machine learning algorithms to expedite the design and testing phases of new medical devices.
The application of such AI solutions spans various functions, from optimising materials and device geometry to validating product performance via virtual simulations. Although Medtronic projects single-digit revenue growth for 2025, the escalating global demand for healthcare products may lead to more substantial growth.
Exploring potential trading opportunities, let's analyse the stock chart of Medtronic Plc (NYSE: MDT) from a technical analysis perspective:
On the Daily (D1) timeframe, Medtronic's stock has established a resistance level at 84.20 USD and support at 81.75 USD. An initial uptrend is evident, indicating the potential for further increases. However, if a downtrend starts, the downside target could be set at 70.10 USD.

Medtronic Beats Fourth-Quarter Estimates But Shares Down 2.44%Medtronic ( NYSE:MDT ), a health tech firm, has beat Wall Street estimates for quarterly profit and revenue in Q4 due to a pickup in surgical volumes at hospitals. The company's financial performance has grown due to a resurgence in demand as people, especially older adults, opted for medical procedures deferred during the COVID-19 pandemic. Medtronic forecasts fiscal 2025 adjusted per-share profit in the range of $5.40 to $5.50, with its midpoint in line with analysts' average estimate of $5.45.
Medtronic ( NYSE:MDT ) joins medical device makers such as Abbott Laboratories and Boston Scientific that have also benefited from soaring demand for non-urgent surgeries. The company took an adjusted charge of $439 million in the fourth quarter, higher than its previously disclosed estimate of between $350 million and $425 million, related to its decision to exit its unprofitable ventilator product line and reorganize the respiratory and patient monitoring businesses.
Sales at the company's diabetes unit, which returned to growth in the U.S. last quarter, rose 10.9% in the quarter ended April 26. However, sales at Medtronic's heart devices unit, its biggest revenue driver, fell 5.2% to $3.13 billion, missing analysts' estimate of $3.14 billion. The second-biggest unit by revenue, neuroscience, which makes medical devices and implants used in the treatment of the spine and musculoskeletal system, posted a 5.6% rise in sales, topping analysts' expectations.
Medtronic ( NYSE:MDT ) reported Q4 worldwide revenue of $8.589 billion, an increase of 0.5% as reported and 5.4% on an organic basis. The organic revenue results reflect broad-based growth across the company, with mid-single digit or higher organic revenue growth in all four segments.
FY24 worldwide revenue of $32.364 billion, an increase of 3.6% as reported and 5.2% on an organic basis, was reported. The company's momentum is building into the new fiscal year, with new product cycles in some of MedTech's most attractive markets and enhanced as AI is applied across the portfolio.
Technical Outlook
Despite profit beat, Medtronic ( NYSE:MDT ) stock is down 2.44% as of the time of writing trading with a Relative Strength Index (RSI) of 52.24 which is poised for a trend reversal in the near to long term. The daily price charts depicts a long wick Doji which means indecision among buyers and sellers.

Medtronic - C Wave in upgoing Zigzag. MDTGoals 199, 190, 185. Invalidation at 230.
We are not in the business of getting every prediction right, no one ever does and that is not the aim of the game. The Fibonacci targets are highlighted in green with invalidation in red. Fibonacci goals, it is prudent to suggest, are nothing more than mere fractally evident and therefore statistically likely levels that the market will go to. Having said that, the market will always do what it wants and always has a mind of its own. Therefore, none of this is financial advice, so do your own research and rely only on your own analysis. Trading is a true one man sport. Good luck out there and stay safe
Medtronic & its 100smaThe chart speaks for itself. 100sma has been held and tested multiple times.
RSI has not gone below 35 RSI.
Giving it a little wiggle room makes sense to avoid getting stopped out. The ATR (average true range) is 2 points. So a stop below $127 could potentially provide enough room.
Piggyback the profiteers After some conversation with a young single mom and what she goes through to get her and her 2 yr old diabetes meds @ $13hr...f to the big pharma and f to the health care that does not cover such a life saving drug. It's not a conspiracy...it's a cultural failure to recognize how far we have come in such a short time. Some will call it profiteering...sure but it's also about what is done with those profits...what could be done. So I'm in on medtronic with the mission to take their pillaging and raping of the target audience, get some profits and help someone that needs help with their medication.
www.diabetes.ca you can donate as well....I just want to take the strain off someone I know personally.
Using $TRXC info to guide $TMDI decisionNASDAQ:TMDI
AMEX:TRXC
These symbols have been on a similar path throughout the year. From November to the beginning of January, $TRXC price action lagged a few days behind $TMDI. Since January $TMDI appears to be the follower. Watching price action of $TRXC when it reaches the yellow ellipse may give us an idea of how $TMDI will eventually exit this channel. May be a good spot for a short-term swing trade.
Thanks for looking!

Medical devices will winHealthcare has been a leader YTD, as it has the defensive nature and is gaining momentum on the spread and containment of the COVID. Also, negative sentiment of the healthcare sector regarding the opioid crisis (which seems like a long time ago now), and politicians creating regulations for insurance reform; has now subsided.
Inside the XLV, IHI (medical devices) and IBB (Biotechnology) have been outperforming, and will likely continue to do so.
The 3 most important holdings of the ETF will be very important during this pandemic:
1. ABT (diagnostic test for COVID) / 12.63%
2. MDT (medical ventilators/respirators) / 12.52%
3. TMO (diagnostic test for COVID) / 10.82%
