UnitedHealth stock price ticks up to $276.65 as insurer cost signals shift — what investors watch next week
UnitedHealth shares closed up 3% at $276.65 Friday, rebounding after Molina Healthcare’s weak 2026 outlook rattled managed-care stocks. Centene later issued a stronger 2026 profit forecast, easing some pressure. UnitedHealth traded between $263.00 and $277.74 during the session. Investors await Humana’s results Feb. 11 and a Medicare Advantage rate decision April 6.
