UnitedHealth Stock Has Rallied Big Since Berkshire Bailed. Did Warren Buffett and Greg Abel Blink Too Soon?

Berkshire Hathaway sold its UnitedHealth Group position in Q1 2026 at a loss after buying around $380/share in Q2 2025. The stock has since rebounded to $428, driven by improving profit margins as the company recovers from elevated medical loss ratios in 2025. UnitedHealth's medical care ratio is normalizing, and with strong secular tailwinds from healthcare inflation and potential earnings recovery to $25-30 billion, the stock appears undervalued at current levels.
