Baxter International Inc (NYSE:BAX) goes all the way back to the Great Depression.

In 1931, two doctors got together and became the first company to develop and sell intravenous solutions commercially. Before that, only hospitals and university health centers made their own solutions and so they were never available for broader use.

Since those days, BAX has stuck close to its knitting. It’s still a leader in the IV space as well as other fundamental healthcare applications.

One of its most significant additions has been its renal portfolio for people with kidney disease or kidney failure.

What’s more, BAX has been in Asian markets for four decades now. That is a big competitive advantage, especially in China, where many companies have been ‘Johnny-come-latelys’ to China and the Chinese value long-term relationships and cooperation. Asia is where the healthcare boom will hit next.

The stock is up nearly 25% YTD and it is far from its potential.

THIS COMPANY SUPPLIES THE LONG-TERM UPTREND IN HEALTH CARE

Today's chart features yet another winner in the health care bull market...

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, all Baby Boomers will be older than age 65 by 2030. And – as our colleague Dr. David Eifrig has said for years – America's aging population is sure to drive health care stocks higher.

Older folks rely more on medicine, testing, and trips to the doctor. Today, we're looking at a business that supplies the industry...

We're talking about medical-products supplier Baxter (BAX). The $40 billion company manufactures items for health care providers. This includes common care products like anesthesia, syringes, and dialysis machines.

As America's second-biggest population ages, Baxter gives doctors the tools to meet their patients' needs. And demand is high... The company has grown annual sales for the past three years.

And as you can see, BAX has more than doubled in price over the past three years. This marks a new multiyear high for the stock. Doc's bullish call on health care stocks continues to be a safe long-term bet for investors...
