But Consider The Risk
GMED isn’t immune to big drops either. It fell about 34% during the 2018 correction, took a 41% hit in the Covid pandemic, and dropped nearly 48% in the inflation shock. Even with good fundamentals, these dips show the stock can get hit hard when the market turns. Strong businesses still face tough sell-offs in turbulent times.
But the risk is not limited to major market crashes. Stocks fall even when markets are good – think events like earnings, business updates, outlook changes. Read GMED Dip Buyer Analyses to see how the stock has recovered from sharp dips in the past.
