CVS vs UnitedHealth: A Healthcare Stocks Showdown
Two of the largest healthcare companies in the world are CVS Health and UnitedHealth Group. Parkev Tatevosian, CFA analyzed the two stocks for investors.
The stock prices used were the afternoon prices of Aug. 14, 2026. At that time, CVS was trading at a price not mentioned in the source but presumably lower than UnitedHealth's since it's compared to UHG. On the other hand, UnitedHealth Group's price on August 14 was also unspecified.
Tatevosian doesn't have a position in either stock and has no vested interest according to The Motley Fool. He recommends both CVS Health and UnitedHealth Group, which is why readers may be surprised by this comparison.
