3 Medical Device Stocks Outpacing the Healthcare Industry This Year

3 Medical Device Stocks Outpacing the Healthcare Industry This Year

Medical device makers are outperforming the general healthcare market so far this year as supply issues ease and the volume of medical procedures is increasing. Three examples are Medtronic (NYSE: MDT), Edwards Lifesciences (NYSE: EW), and Stryker (NYSE: SYK), each of which is up more than 15% this year. The rest of the healthcare industry, on the other hand, has mostly seen its shares decline.
