UnitedHealth Group's lowered 2025 forecast sent its stock plummeting 22%, dragging down the broader health insurance sector. The S&P 500 healthcare sector fell 0.6%, impacting other major insurers like Humana, Elevance Health, and CVS Health. The Dow Jones Industrial Average, which includes UnitedHealth, also declined by 1.3%. While some health stocks, such as Eli Lilly, saw gains, the overall market reacted negatively to UnitedHealth's revised projections.
