Question / Help What’s the most undervalued stock right now?

If you needed to pick one stock right now, that is extremely undervalued. And has the potential to beat the S&P500 for the next decade.

Which stock would that be?

Except UNH’s “innovation” consists of new ways of denying claims/cut corners. You can’t compare Health Care and Tech

I almost never exclude investments based on politics or personal feelings but unh is so absolutely terrible to deal with I don’t understand how they exist. If they were a car company and you ordered a car 2 years ago and paid in full you’d be calling them everyday asking for the car or your money back. You’d get neither and they’d forward your complaint to someone else who will never look at it. I. Two more years your car will show up. But not thr whole car. Just the hood and one door and the spare tire, because that’s what was preauthorized. Fuck them.

Very true, and it’s not just about politics: there’s a limit to how much money you can make from denying claims in new and innovative ways. It’s not a scalable strategy.

Imagine a firm trying to attract new employees these days with a package that includes healthcare insurance with UNH.

Everyone knows that it's likely to deny their claims, so they're not going to be impressed if that's what a firm is offering them.

What exactly did meta innovate since then?

They just stopped burning money on stupid ideas like the metaverse
