No change to our estimates or PO at this time. 3M's shares have outperformed recently given the backdrop of macro-economic concerns and 3M's perceived defensiveness. However, the stock now trades at a significant premium to most of the sectors in which 3M competes. Meanwhile, issues prevail toward margins, high consumer exposure and lack of visibility vs. more capital spending-driven industrials."At the time of posting, shares of MMM were trading pre-market at $94.80, down 1.45% from Wednesday's close.
