UnitedHealth Stock Rallies From 5-Year Lows as CEO and Other Insiders Scoop Up Shares

  • UnitedHealth Group announced CEO Andrew Witty's resignation on May 2025, with former CEO Stephen Hemsley returning amid a reported federal Medicare fraud investigation.
  • The leadership change followed disclosures of a Department of Justice antitrust probe and allegations that executives engaged in insider stock sales before public announcements.
  • UnitedHealth's shares fell to their lowest level in five years last week and declined by nearly 50% over a five-week span, at times pulling the Dow into negative territory.
  • Insiders including Hemsley purchased shares recently—he bought 86,700 shares near $289 each—helping the stock rise over 8% on Monday, indicating confidence despite uncertainty.
  • The events have sparked congressional scrutiny, increased regulatory audits, and analyst forecast cuts of over 20% for earnings through 2027, reflecting market and political concerns about UnitedHealth's practices.
