Hospira Inc.

Hospira Inc. is among the world’s largest Health Care Equipment sector businesses in the world.  Hospira Inc.’s employees generate $128.1M in profits on $2.807B of revenue.  Global output in the Health Care Equipment business will likely rise substantially over the next 10 years.  Long-term economic growth may lift all boats, but Hospira Inc. is determined to remain a market leader.  Sectoral leadership in the Health Care Equipment segment takes dedication and consistency, but management seeks out-sized growth.

Hospira Inc.’s ticker symbol HSP has recently been trading near $39.03 a share.  The Hospira Inc. corporate headquarters in Lake Forest IL predicts Health Care Equipment profits will satisfy shareholders in search of risk-appropriate returns.

The significance of market volume is sometimes ignored, but with a total market capitalization of $6.113B ensures sufficient liquidity.  With a beta of 0.11, the company is less volatile than the market as a whole.  When the average equity moves lower, Hospira Inc. moves less aggressively.
