4 MedTech Stocks Poised to Thrive Under Second Trump Presidency

Trump's return to the White House has introduced significant uncertainty for investors in the medical device industry. Major executive actions, including the U.S. withdrawal from the World Health Organization (WHO) and a freeze on federal regulatory activities, have sparked concerns among MedTech stakeholders. As investors await clarity, the initial environment under Trump 2.0 demands close monitoring of regulatory developments and adapting strategies to mitigate risks.Be that as it may, sectors like health IT, telemedicine and digital health platforms are witnessing growth opportunities and a positive outlook. Here, we have picked four Medtech stocks that are set to benefit from the new administrative policies. These are Doximity DOCS, Omnicell OMCL, Embecta Corp. EMBC and Cencora, Inc. COR.Executive Orders Seemingly Putting MedTech in a Tight SpotExperts apprehend that exiting the WHO may reduce U.S. participation in global health initiatives, potentially limiting collaborative efforts in combating pandemics and advancing medical research. This withdrawal could also increase risks for medical device manufacturers that rely on international regulatory alignment and data-sharing facilitated by the WHO. This could potentially increase complexity in the regulatory approval process, costs and operational inefficiencies.Moreover, the freeze on regulatory activity under the FDA and CMS until new administration appointees approve policies has placed critical decisions in limbo, delaying new product approvals and reimbursement processes. For medical device companies, this uncertainty could hinder innovation timelines and revenue projections. The potential for slowed progress in approving breakthrough therapies and devices may discourage investments in early-stage startups and clinical trials.Silver Lining: Digital Health and Telemedicine Prospects BrightThe new administration repealed the former president’s Executive Order on AI safety. This strategic shift signals a strong positive impact on digital healthcare and telemedicine. Apparently, this will ease regulatory frameworks for these kinds of MedTech makers to test and deploy Gen AI applications more quickly, potentially giving U.S.-based firms a competitive edge in global AI markets. Meanwhile, telemedicine is expected to align with the administration's potential focus on improving healthcare access without expanding federal oversight.Since the Presidential inauguration on Jan. 20, the Global Telemedicine & Digital Health ETF EDOC has shown steady growth.Image Source: Zacks Investment Research4 MedTech Stocks to Keep An Eye OnDoximity: This leading digital platform for U.S. medical professionals is of late experiencing a significant increase in the use of its clinical workflow tool.
