About: 3M, a multinational conglomerate founded in 1902, sells tens of thousands of products ranging from sponges to respirators. The firm is well known for its extensive research and development capabilities, and it is a pioneer in inventing new use cases for its proprietary technologies. 3M is organized across three business segments: safety and industrial (representing around 44% of revenue), transportation and electronics (36%), and consumer (20%). The firm recently spun off its healthcare business, now known as Solventum. Nearly half of 3M's revenue comes from outside the Americas.

3M: High Valuation, But The Chart Points To Potentially Explosive Gain
I maintain a hold rating on 3M, citing slightly high valuation and a technical chart with strong potential, amid recent outperformance versus the S&P 500.
