Analyst Says This 'Beaten Down' Cheap Healthcare Stock Can See a 'Nice Pop'

We recently published 10 Most Popular Analyst Calls to Watch This Week. UnitedHealth Group Incorporated (NYSE:UNH) is one of the trending stocks.

Victoria Greene from G Squared Private Wealth said in a recent program on CNBC that UNH could turn around if the company executes. The analyst believes UNH is a cheap stock and made the case for the company in detail:

“It’s the behemoth that’s been beaten down for the last 12 months. And what we’re looking for is this is the turnaround quarter, and we’re really excited to see if they can actually execute. It’s on them to finally execute on their plans. They can’t just talk about it. What we need to see is not just cost-cutting, but we need to see revenue growth driven by a better medical loss ratio. That means, did they price their plans correctly? They already came out with some great news on their 78% of their plans are rated four-star or better, which makes them much more eligible for bonuses, enhanced rebates. The stock has the potential, if they execute, could see a really nice pop because you’re going to see more and more investors pile in. It’s a cheap stock, 15 times price-earnings. I think you’re going to see, if you have good news, possibly even a raise, but definitely, hey, we know how to price our insurance plans. This stock could really move and could be one that powers the Dow as well. It’s one of the more heavily weighted members of the Dow Jones Industrial Index.”
