5 Best Medical Care Facilities Stocks to Buy According to Analysts

3. Auna S.A. (NYSE:AUNA)

Auna S.A. (NYSE:AUNA) is one of the best medical care facilities stocks to buy according to analysts. Analysts’ average target implies about 32.6% upside, although the stock comes with a more mixed signal than several others on the list. The freshest analyst-specific update was on May 26, when JPMorgan maintained a Hold rating and lowered its price target to $5 from $6. That is not bullish by itself, and it keeps the stock from looking like a simple consensus-favorite story.

However, the broader analyst set compiled by S&P Global still showed a Buy consensus and an average target of $6.99, with seven analysts covering the company. Fitch also affirmed Auna’s B+ rating on May 22, while flagging leverage levels that remain material. The measured takeaway is that analysts still see upside on average, but the case depends on execution across a vertically integrated Latin American healthcare platform, including hospitals, outpatient centers, and health plans, rather than clean U.S. hospital exposure.

Auna S.A. (NYSE:AUNA) operates hospitals and clinics in Mexico, Peru, and Colombia, and also provides prepaid healthcare, dental and vision insurance, oncology plans, and medicines.
