Baxter International is a U.S. medical technology company founded in 1931 and headquartered in Deerfield, Illinois. Its products are used mainly in hospitals and other care settings. The portfolio includes intravenous solutions and infusion pumps, injectable drugs and anesthetics, surgical products such as hemostats and sealants, and, through the acquisition of Hillrom in 2021, hospital beds, patient monitoring and connected care solutions.
In 2025 Baxter sold its kidney care business, which included dialysis products, to private equity firm Carlyle, where it now operates as Vantive. The goal was to simplify the group and reduce debt. Customers are hospitals, clinics, pharmacies and home care providers worldwide, with the United States as the largest market. Important factors for the business are product recalls and quality issues, supply chain reliability, debt reduction and execution of a turnaround under new leadership. Baxter trades on the NYSE under the ticker BAX and is a member of the S&P 500.
The current price of Baxter International stock is $26.23 (+0.73% vs. the previous close). In today's trading the high was $26.31 and the low $26.12.
How the Quantum Forecast works
Research from quantum physics. The models are the result of several years of research at the Max Planck Institute of Quantum Optics and LMU Munich and were transferred to the stock market.
Spectra and correlations. Frequency spectra are calculated from current prices, and the relationships between price swings and volatility are analyzed. This produces the forecast and the risk assessment.
Detecting herd behavior. Models of phase transitions from statistical physics describe when investors collectively fall into panic or euphoria – an early sign of possible crash situations.
Swarm intelligence. User forecasts are checked once their time frame has expired and feed into the model, weighted by their hit rate.
