Fitch Ratings Says Impeachment Trial Won't Hurt Healthcare Investment in 2020
Healthcare markets in the U.S. have a lot to be anxious about in 2020, with federal elections looming while the impeachment trial of President Trump continues to develop. In spite of this, however, top credit agency Fitch Ratings predicts that U.S. healthcare investment will remain strong.
Although healthcare megamergers are likely to slow down a little in 2020, more midsize acquisitions are likely to continue without losing too much steam, according to Fitch. However, M&A activity is likely to be weighted more toward the first six months of the year as opposed to the second half, when the election takes place, the agency says.
