Smith & Nephew PLC (LON:SN) Share Price
Name: Smith & Nephew PLC (LON:SN)
Description: Smith & Nephew (LON:SN.) shares look attractive right now. A long-standing business that has been able to weather the ups and downs of the global economy over the decades, Smith & Nephew is one of the UK’s top healthcare companies. And in the years ahead, it should enjoy huge tailwinds from the world’s ageing population given its focus on joint replacement technology. However, at present, none of this seems to be reflected in its valuation as its P/E ratio is quite low. So, there could be an opportunity here for long-term investors. 20/11/23
