The Market Oversold UnitedHealth's Troubles

Berkshire Hathaway's $1.6B stake signals confidence in UnitedHealth, driving a sharp rally after a year of heavy declines and episodic setbacks. UNH's fundamentals remain robust: strong cash flow, scale, and attractive valuation metrics versus peers, despite recent profit pressures and cost overruns. Key catalysts include guidance stabilization, Medicare Advantage pricing, and operational improvements; most negative events appear priced in, tilting risk/reward to the upside.
