UnitedHealth: Should You Buy This Falling Knife?
Published: May 15, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Neutral
Despite massive recent weakness and uncertainty, I believe UNH is a "reluctant" buy due to its cash flow, dividend, and systemic importance. UNH faces unprecedented selling pressure, CEO resignation, DOJ investigation, and negative public sentiment, making it a high risk/reward investment currently. Valuation is compelling: UNH trades at 11-13x forward earnings, with a reasonable expectation of earnings recovery and growth returning in 2026.

UnitedHealth Hits Peak Panic After DOJ Probe. A Bottom Is Near
Published: May 15, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Negative
UnitedHealth Group stock has plummeted since my last Buy rating and is ~55% off highs, but its lower valuation now offers a significant margin of safety, making it a Buy. Disappointing Q1-2025 results and unexpected CEO changes have hurt the stock, but Stephen Hemsley's return as CEO should bring stability and experience. A DOJ probe against UnitedHealth adds to the risks and downside potential. However, I'm willing to take this risk at a "derisked" valuation.
