Humana HUM is facing considerable turbulence as it grapples with a significant drop in its Medicare Star Ratings, sending shares tumbling and calling the insurer's fundamentals into question. This has resulted in
HUM being referred to as an oversold growth stock. The company's stock price is additionally impacted by government changes to Medicare ratings. Amidst these challenges,
HUM is battling legal disputes attempting to reverse the high-stakes cut to Medicare ratings and addressing lawsuits on behalf of investors. Despite this adversity, the possibility of a merger between
Cigna and
Humana has been revived, with informal talks currently ongoing. Nevertheless, Humana's board is still declaring quarterly dividends to stockholders, vowing to continue its expected financial operations. They have also added
Gordon Smith to the Board of Directors, providing an experienced hand during a challenging period. Lastly, HUM’s Q3 2024 earnings have exceeded expectations, providing some relief. In light of these factors,
Humana's stock may present a buying opportunity at 52-week lows.
