UNH – $600 in 1-2 years is possible

I remember first seeing UnitedHealth (UNH) on tradeleaks.ai back when it was like $270. There was chatter that Buffett might reveal it as his “secret stock” and sure enough that came out later. Ever since then I’ve kept an eye on it.

Right now I honestly think $600 in the next 12–24 months is realistic.

• Earnings keep grinding higher, they’re guiding $27–28 EPS for 2025. Put a 21x multiple on that and you’re around $600.

• Optum is the real growth engine here, it’s high margin and keeps scaling faster than the insurance side.

• They keep buying back stock + bumping the dividend, so you’re not just waiting around.

• Plus, healthcare is defensive. In a shaky market I’d rather hold something steady like this than gamble on another tech bubble name.
