Guidepoint’s Data Insights team is excited to announce that we have expanded Guidepoint Qsight’s data product offering to include models for Stryker (“SYK”) and Boston Scientific (“BSX”).
Prior to Stryker’s Q3 2018 earnings release, Qsight’s data and projection methodology showed potential for their U.S. revenue to come in below sell-side consensus estimates. On October 25th, Stryker’s Q3 2018 reported U.S. sales underperformed Street expectations, sending the stock price down -3% the next day.
Prior to Boston’s Q3 2018 earnings release, Qsight’s data and projection methodology showed potential for their U.S. revenue to come in above sell-side consensus estimates. On October 24th, Boston’s Q3 2018 reported U.S. sales outperformed Street expectations, sending the stock price up +2% the next day.
