Totally a buy opportunity. Long-term obviously. Especially in a recession.

Now into the why of the fall? There’s a new proposed bill to regulate HMOs, they don’t know what will happen there but with the public supporting it, it might be risky bet.

That and their latest balance wasn’t that good. I mean these types of companies have like a 6 to 11 percent profit margin. That’s not much money actually overall

I’m not entirely sure why the stocks are falling. Does anybody think they’re going to tidy up their profit margins? They’re going to walk around in armored limousines with security details. And the new administration is going to make absolutely certain they can still bulldoze their way through.

I’m assuming that investors think there might be a sea change in public opinion coming, which may drive some new, less profitable, legislation.

One of them already walked back a “we will limit the amount of anaethestic you’re allowed in surgical procedures” they’d announced.

The market sees that the CEOs fear for their lives and want to make it sound like they care rather than deny care, so profits will fall, because paying for healthcare is a lot more expensive than paying a call centre worker to say no.

Hence the industry as a whole is less profitable, because, you know, what with death being so unpopular suddenly these days amongst healthcare CEOs.

That sounds like a great next bestseller from AKPress, shelved between “how to blow up a pipeline” and “living my life”

Sounds like tHe mARkEt thinks something will gut the industry. But there is no indication of actual real change happening. So what’s going on?
