My comments (not financial advice):
If we are heading into a recession and facing a climate of high interest rates, certain considerations would be important when deciding where to invest. Namely, defensive nature, financial health and dividend yield.
Abbott Laboratories (Company C) has a diversified portfolio including pharmaceuticals, medical devices, and nutritional products, which might provide some resilience during a downturn. They also have a long history and a broad geographical reach, both of which could be advantageous in a recession.
On the other hand, both Edwards Lifesciences (Company A) and Stryker Corporation (Company B) focus more on medical devices. While these are essential products, they might be more vulnerable to cutbacks in hospital spending during a recession.

$Abbott Laboratories (ABT.US)$ For 130 years, we’ve adapted to an increasingly complex healthcare environment by keeping our focus where it belongs—on helping people achieve their best possible health, in all stages of life, around the world. And that’s a goal we’ll continue to pursue far into the future.
