HEALTH CARE'S BIG TREND BOOSTS THIS STOCK

Abbott is a leader in diagnostics, medical devices, nutrition, and generic pharmaceuticals.

Its testing and diagnostic instruments are used worldwide in hospitals, labs, and doctor's offices.

Abbott owns many popular consumer brands, including Pedialyte (hydration solution) and Ensure (nutrition shakes).

Plus, the company has paid a dividend since 1924 and has increased it for 45 consecutive years. That's a claim few companies can make...

As you can see, Abbott's shares are up nearly 25% this year... and recently hit a fresh 52-week high.

With "one of the world's greatest tailwinds" at its back – an aging population – Abbott's share price will likely continue higher...

PROVIDING TESTS TO THE FRONT LINES OF THE COVID-19 BATTLE

Today's chart shows a company fighting back against this pandemic...

There are now more than 800,000 COVID-19 cases in the U.S., with the numbers climbing each day. Medical workers and companies are racing to develop a vaccine...

And in the meantime, they're also scrambling to provide treatments and testing. Today's company is aiding the fight by creating tests for patients...

Abbott Laboratories (ABT) is a $170 billion health care giant. It provides everything from diabetes care and medical testing to nutritional supplements like Ensure and Pedialyte.

Abbott's tests are already being used to identify coronavirus in infected patients. And it recently released a new antibody test that can determine if a patient has already had COVID-19, even if they never showed any symptoms.

ABT shares were in a long-term uptrend before the pandemic. After falling in March, they recently bounced back to a new all-time high.

Shares are up nearly 130% over the past three years, including dividends. As doctors and hospitals keep using Abbott's products to help fight COVID-19, that uptrend should continue...

Is Abbott A Buy After Launching Not One — But Three — Coronavirus Tests?

by ALLISON GATLIN

The health company is a leader in medical devices. It makes a body-worn glucose monitor for patients with diabetes dubbed Freestyle Libre.

In March, Abbott gained the Food and Drug Administration's emergency use authorization for a pair of coronavirus tests. One can deliver results in as little as five minutes, Abbott says.

This month, Abbott launched a third coronavirus test. This test detects antibodies associated with a prior Covid-19 infection.

In the first quarter ended March 31, Abbott earnings increased more than 3%.

First-quarter revenue grew nearly 3%.
