UnitedHealth Stock Jumps as Centene Results Put Insurer Turnaround Back in Play
UnitedHealth Group Incorporated saw its shares jump roughly 4% to $369.41 early Tuesday afternoon, lifted alongside other U.S. health insurers after Centene issued another profit outlook boost. Centene surged more than 14%. Humana and CVS Health picked up gains as well, as the latest guidance stoked hopes that the sector’s medical-cost crunch could be loosening its grip.
