Extended read
Johnson & Johnson's Q2 results were fundamentally strong, yet the stock faced a 'sell the news' reaction. While the company beat on both top and bottom lines and raised its outlook, investors focused on the modest 2% growth in the MedTech division. However, with a 3% dividend yield and raised guidance, many analysts are flagging this as a tactical entry point for value-oriented portfolios.
