Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Diversified by geography and business mix, Fresenius should be able to benefit from ongoing growth in treating ESRD patients worldwide once the pandemic recedes.

Bears

With virtually all of its U.S. service profits coming from commercial insurance, Fresenius' profits could contract in several potential policy scenarios.
