EMR’s Zacks Rank & Price Performance

EMR is benefiting from solid momentum in the Intelligent Devices and Software and Control segments. Strength in the power end markets is aiding the Final Control business. Robust growth across the Americas and Asia, Middle East & Africa regions bodes well for the Measurement & Analytical business.

The company currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). In the past year, EMR’s shares have gained 4.3% against the industry’s 3.9% decline.

However, softness across all geographies within the Safety & Productivity business is concerning for the company. Weakness across the Europe and China regions is hurting EMR’s Test & Measurement business.
