Barden attributed their price target hike to A) The quarter's beat, B) Management's better-than-expected FY 2025 guidance, and C) The fact that subscriber growth momentum "remains solid and still has room to continue."

Why we’re watching:

EME is a recent Stock of the Week … And it’s still worth watching. According to our resident stock expert, Zen Investor Editor-in-Chief Steve Reitmeister, EMCOR (EME) is “not a household name. But that ‘under the radar’ stature allows us to scoop up this growth stock at very attractive levels. Especially after the recent pullback in shares.” In a recent article, he expanded — here are some highlights:
EME has had 10 straight beat and raise earnings reports that propelled shares 5X since the middle of 2022. This is where you have to dig into the fundamentals to appreciate the nature of the firm…
EME has an overall “A” rating, which means it's a Strong Buy because it’s in the top 5% of all the stocks we analyze across 115 different factors.
What really jumps off the charts for EME is the top 3% showing for the 26 factors of Financial strength we review. This means it is an incredibly well-run company…the kind of company that is likely to produce more beat and raise earnings reports in the future that propels shares even higher.
What also stands out for EME with the Zen Ratings is how there is no weakness to be found. In most categories they are in the top 25% of stocks like Value (learn more here), Growth, Momentum and Sentiment. (See the full Zen Ratings analysis for EME here >)

3- Boston Scientific Corp. (NYSE: BSX)

When arteries get clogged, Boston Scientific Corp.’s Taxus Stent can help open them. But there’s more to the company than its signature stent — the company manufactures medical devices used for radiology, cardiology, and neuromodulation. Considered a dynamic player in the MedTech world, analysts are bullish about not only the sector but the stock in the coming year.

Zen Rating: A (Strong Buy) — see full analysis >

Recent Price: $104.97 — get current quote >

Max 1-year forecast: $119.00

Why we’re watching:

BSX enjoys a Strong Buy consensus among the 17 analysts we track issuing ratings, with a max forecast of $119. See the ratings
A recent bullish move? Jayson Bedford of Raymond James (a top 12% analyst) recently raised their price target on BSX 17.8% from $101 to $119 on 1/31, while maintaining a Strong Buy rating.
This move was made in advance of BSX’s earnings, which were announced on 2/5.
In a backgrounder, Bedford made three points: 1) Boston Scientific remains one of the most dynamic companies in MedTech. 2) Its growth profile is unique within its cap range, justifying a premium multiple. 3) Raymond James expects the stock to be volatile but nevertheless sees it as one of the top performers in its sector.
After a review of 115 factors proven to drive stock growth, BSX earns a Zen Rating of A, putting it in the top 5% of the thousands of stocks we track on WallStreetZen.
The Zen Rating is built on Component Grades, and BSX’s areas of strength lie in four key areas: Growth, Sentiment, and Safety. However, the most compelling is an above-average grade from our proprietary AI rating, which uses advanced AI algorithms that detect subtle patterns in market data; it anticipates future trends that point to superior stock price results. This combination of strong scores indicates a watchlist-worthy stock. (See all 7 Zen Component Grades here >)
