Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Nordson is poised to benefit from innovation in its end markets, including autonomous vehicles, 5G, and 3D wafer stacking, as new technologies drive demand for its dispensing solutions.

Bears

The company regularly invests in M&A to boost revenue growth, which creates the risk of overpaying for acquisition targets.
