UnitedHealth Group (UNH) shares plummeted 6.45% intraday, marking the lowest level since October 2021, as the stock has been on a downward spiral for the past two days, with a cumulative decline of 27.30%.
The primary driver behind
Group's recent stock price fluctuations is the company's first-quarter earnings report for 2025. The report revealed higher-than-expected utilization of services from customers, prompting UnitedHealth to lower its 2025 guidance. The company now anticipates its 2025 adjusted earnings per share to range between $26 and $26.50, a significant reduction from the previous forecast of $29.50-$30. This downward revision has sparked a negative response from Wall Street, with several analysts downgrading the stock and adjusting their price targets accordingly.Despite the challenges, many analysts still consider
a buy. However, the recent volatility has piqued the interest of activist investors, who may see this as an opportunity to influence the company's strategic direction. The company's ability to navigate these headwinds and regain investor confidence will be crucial in determining its future performance.
