Additionally, news about considering "a full separation" from Bausch Health Companies Inc. but not resulting in a deal has created some uncertainty in the market.

Set stop loss at $16.85 to manage risk.
The price of BLCO is predicted to go up -0.6%, based on the high correlation periods with HII. The similarity of these two price pattern on the periods is 95.74%.

As a standalone public company, Bausch now has the ability to freely allocate financial resources to innovate and develop businesses that were underfunded under its former parent company.
With an upcoming launch of multifocal and toric lenses in the Infuse line (daily silicone hydrogels), we expect Bausch to win over some new customers as well as to have its current Bausch lens wearers upgrade.
We expect patents and product superiority of Biotrue eye drops, Lumify, and PreserVision to secure Bausch as a leader in the over-the-counter eye care and supplements space.
