This Unique Signal Points To Upside At Medtronic

  • In a recent report, analysts at Rage Frameworks took a look into Medtronic PLC MDT.

  • In fact, the experts noted, “Medtronic is gathering assets to deliver growth for the next several years.”

According to a recent Rage Frameworks report, Medtronic is putting assets together to growth consistently over the next several years. But, while the company offers robust fundamentals and long-term growth potential (revenue is expected to grow by 10 percent each year, over the foreseeable future), its stock is quite undervalued.
