Elevance Health | ELV | Long at $286.00What are seeing in the healthcare and health insurance provider industry right now is destruction before a once-in-a-lifetime boom. The baby boomer generation is between 60 and 79 right now and the amount of healthcare service that will be needed to serve that population is staggering. Institutions are crushing them to get in - it's just near-term noise, in my opinion. My personal strategy is buy and hold every healthcare opportunity (i.e. NYSE:CNC , NYSE:UNH , NYSE:HUM etc). Elevance Health NYSE:ELV just dropped heavily due to lower-than-expected Q2 2025 earnings, a cut in full-year profit guidance from $34.15-$34.85 to ~$30 EPS, and elevated medical costs in Medicaid and ACA plans. It's near-term pain (may last 1-2 years) which will highly likely lead to long-term growth. The price has touched my historical simple moving average "crash" band. I would not be shocked to see the price drop further into the $260s before a rise. However, the near-term doom could go further into the year. I am anticipating another drop to the "major crash" simple moving average band into the $190s and $220s to close out the remaining price gaps on the daily chart that occurred during the COVID crash. Not to say it will absolutely reach that area, but it's locations on the chart I have for additional buys. Thus, at $286.00, NYSE:ELV is in a personal buy zone (starter position) with more opportunities to gather shares likely near $260 before a bounce. However, if the market or healthcare industry really turns, additional buys planned for $245 and $212 for a long-term hold. Targets into 2028: $335.00 (+17.1%) $386.00 (+35.0%)

Agilon Health | AGL | Long at $2.36Reentering this trade (original: ) Agilon Health NYSE:AGL Pros: Revenue consistently grew from 2019 ($794 million) to 2024 ($6.06 billion). Expected to reach $9.16 billion by 2028. Current debt-to-equity ratio 0.07 (very low) Sufficient cash reserves to fund operations and strategic initiatives Strong membership growth (659,000 in 2024, a 38% year-over-year increase) Recent insider buying ($2 - $3) and awarding of options Cons: Rising medical costs - currently unprofitable and not forecast to become profitable over the next 3 years Medicare Advantage Membership issues with the new political administration No dividend It's a gamble and I think it's a possibility this could drop near $1 in the near-term due to the Medicaid changes/fear... regardless, long-term, personal buy-zone at $2.36. Targets in 2027 $3.70 (+56.8%) $5.25 (+122.5%)

Centene Corp | CNC | Long at $35.00Centene Corp NYSE:CNC is a healthcare enterprise providing programs and services to under-insured and uninsured families, commercial organizations, and military families in the U.S. through Medicaid, Medicare, Commercial, and other segments. The stock dropped almost 40% this morning due to recent challenges, such as a $1.8B reduction in 2025 risk adjustment revenue and rising Medicaid costs (leading to withdrawal of 2025 earnings guidance). However, the company has a book value near $56, debt-to-equity of 0.7x (healthy), a current P/E of 5x, and a forward P/E of 9x. It may be a few years before this stock recovers. But the price has entered my "crash" simple moving average area (currently between $32 and $36) and there is a price gap on the daily chart between $32 and $33 that will likely be closed before a move higher. Long-term, and potentially a new political administration, new life may enter this stock once again as the baby boom generation requires more healthcare services. But holding is not for the faint of heart... Thus, at $35.00, NYSE:CNC is in a personal buy zone with a likely continued dip into the low $30s or high $20s before a slow move higher (where I will be accumulating more shares). Full disclosure: I am also a position holder in the $60s and cost averaging down. Targets into 2028: $45.00 (+28.6%) $54.00 (+54.3%)

OSCR Earnings Beat Setup LONGOSCR on the daily chart is shown near to but below the POC line on the volume profile anchored in April. The ZL MACD has a low amplitude histogram. On the directional index indicator both negative and positive lines are nearly trendless at the 20 level. The price is closer to the lower Bollinger Bands and so a reversion to the mean would be upward price action. I am looking to take a long trade here. The entry would be by a buy stop over the POC line at 7.35 and the stop loss at 7.05, the low of the last red candle. The targets are 8.75 and 9.85 corresponding to horizontal resistance lines. This is a swing trade planning for a profit of about 30%. The stop loss of 0.30 as compared with an average target of 1.75 is about 1:5 for the risk to reward. I may take an options trade of 1-3 months duration as well. Leave a commnet , if you would like to know my considerations for a call option. Healthcare and medical are relatively strong sectors right now compared with the chaotic market at large.
