Fisher, Cohen & Laffont's Robotics Pick Just Triggered A Golden Cross

Robotics just delivered a breakout moment — and it's happening in **Intuitive Surgical Inc** (NASDAQ: ISRG), a stock already sitting deep inside the portfolios of three billionaire heavyweights.

## ISRG: Golden Cross Breakout

ISRG just printed the **Golden Cross**, with the stock's 50-day moving average crossing above the 200-day — a textbook bullish signal traders track as a shift from selling pressure to momentum control. Shares are trading near $575.12, sitting above the eight-day SMA (simple moving average) at $571.89, the 20-day at $565.57, and a sharply rising 50-day at $515.94, all positioned firmly above the 200-day average at $508.70.

Momentum is confirming the setup: MACD (moving average convergence/divergence) is 13.79, signaling strong upside acceleration, while the RSI (relative strength index) at 63.40 shows buying pressure with room to run before overbought territory.

ISRG is up 9.74% year to date and is grinding back toward the 52-week high of $616, well clear of last year's $425 low. In breakout language, the chart just flipped from recovery to potential expansion.

## Billionaire Conviction Signal

What amplifies the signal is who's already in the trade.

**Ken Fisher**'s **Fisher Asset Management** holds roughly 3.89 million shares worth $1.74 billion, adding more than 40,000 shares last quarter.

**Philippe Laffont**'s **Coatue** owns 710,000+ shares valued at $318 million.

**Steve Cohen**'s **Point72** lifted its stake by more than 80%, now holding over 612,000 shares worth $274 million.

These positions weren't built at the top — they were built early, with average buy prices far lower, and they're being held into strength.

## Investor Takeaway

Golden Crosses are common. Golden Crosses backed by billionaire conviction in one of the strongest robotics franchises in tech-healthcare are not.

With demand for robotic-assisted surgery accelerating and ISRG reclaiming trend leadership, this breakout isn't about hype — it's about timing. The signal just fired. The question is, who moves before momentum does the rest?
