UnitedHealth Group Incorporated (UNH) has gained significant prominence in market updates and investment advisories. Reports have focused on its position as a top defensive stock according to Reddit, a robust long-term investment, and a favourite amongst large institutional owners with 90% ownership. Despite concerns raised around the company's
overly optimistic growth guidance and a cyber attack, there's a consensus to retain or purchase the stock, citing it as a high-quality compounder and a good value stock. The highlight has also been on its steady
dividend growth and the subsequent institutional buying by Rathbones Group and J.W. Cole Advisors amongst others. UNH's
dominance of institutional ownership has been reiterated, while the
Q2 earnings proved to be a positive surprise beating market expectations due to a strong Optum unit performance. Insider trading by the Chief Accounting Officer and a
cyber attack have however raised eyebrows. AbbVie stock took a hit as UnitedHealth removed Humira, indicating a potential impact on the former's profitability. A class-action lawsuit was also filed against UNH, the specifics of which await disclosure.
