Better Buy: Abbott Laboratories vs. Intuitive Surgical

Abbott Laboratories (NYSE: ABT) and Intuitive Surgical (NASDAQ: ISRG) are a pair of stocks that I stand behind, and both companies are working to increase their revenue to build on their long-term successes. Abbott Labs is a key company in the response to the pandemic, as it makes diagnostic tests for COVID-19 as well as a cornucopia of other critical goods for hospitals and consumer health. It recently delivered a stunning 150 million of its coronavirus diagnostic tests to the U.S. government, and millions more are shipping out to other customers worldwide.
