UnitedHealth Group has rebounded from a bad 2025.
UnitedHealth Group Just Hit a 52-Week High. Is It Too Late to Buy This Soaring Stock?
Overview
A year ago, UnitedHealth Group (NYSE: UNH) stock was a disaster. It had fallen sharply after the company encountered higher-than-anticipated costs from its members, causing it to miss analysts' estimates for the first time since the 2008-09 financial crisis.
But today, UnitedHealth Group is trading near a 52-week high. The federal government has announced better-than-expected reimbursement rates for Medicare Advantage, margins have improved, and the stock has jumped 23% since the beginning of the year.
Details
But despite the rally, UnitedHealth Group stock remains down more than 34% from where it traded just two years ago. Does the stock have more room to run higher, or is this a good time for investors to take profits?
