Oppenheimer Asset Management said it likes UnitedHealth Corp. (UNH.US), which "is showing the strongest trend in the managed care subsector." The firm also noted that the stock could rise to $650 and gave the stock a "buy" rating.

Oppenheimer Asset Management said, "We believe that the breakout above $550 in UnitedHealth stock marks a multi-year trend break and the resumption of the structural up-trend in the stock. Our analysis points to a support level of $650."

As of Wednesday's close, UnitedHealth was trading at $578.07, above its 10-, 50-, 100- and 200-day moving averages and just a whisker away from its all-time high of $591.54, set on Aug. 2. In addition, UnitedHealth has gained 10.7% so far this year and 16.8% over the past 12 months.
