GE HealthCare's near-term outlook creates near-term execution risk given the need for a strong 2H'24 ramp, but the longer-term potential may be underrated by the Street. GE HealthCare is a strong #2 in imaging behind Siemens Healthineers; while the company lags in photon-counting CT, its silicon-based approach could be the better one long term. I believe the Street is underestimating the potential of new markets in ultrasound (PoC, surgery, and peripheral), as well as high-margin growth in PDx tied to Alzheimer's, cardiology, and oncology.
