UnitedHealth Seeks $1B Latin America Exit: Sources
UnitedHealth Group Incorporated (NYSE:UNH) is one of the best Dow stocks to invest in. The company is considering several offers for its Latin American business, according to two insiders familiar with the situation, as it works to recover from a series of major setbacks, including the removal of its CEO and a reported criminal accounting investigation. The largest US health insurer has aimed to exit Latin America since 2022, but selling its Banmedica unit has become more urgent recently due to multiple challenges, one source said. A senior healthcare professional giving advice to a patient in a clinic. New CEO Steve Hemsley told shareholders last week that he is focused on regaining their confidence following a disappointing earnings report and a Wall Street Journal story about a criminal probe into alleged Medicare fraud. UnitedHealth Group Incorporated (NYSE:UNH) maintains it has not been notified by the Department of Justice and stands by its business integrity. UnitedHealth Group Incorporated (NYSE:UNH) has received four non-binding bids for Banmedica, which operates in Colombia and Chile, totaling around $1 billion, according to sources who requested anonymity due to the confidential nature of the negotiations. While we acknowledge the potential of UNH as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk.

Disney to Pay Comcast $438.7M for Full Hulu Ownership, Ending Valuation Dispute
The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:DIS) is one of the best Dow stocks to invest in. The company has agreed to pay Comcast $438.7 million to buy out its remaining stake in the streaming service Hulu, ending a lengthy appraisal process. In 2023, The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:DIS) announced its plan to acquire Comcast's 33% share of Hulu, paying $8.6 billion based on a minimum value of $27.5 billion that the companies had agreed on in 2019. This move wasn't unexpected, as reports had indicated Disney's intention to gain full control of Hulu. The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:DIS) had originally acquired a two-thirds stake in Hulu through its purchase of Fox Corp.'s entertainment assets. After the initial payment, Disney and Comcast entered an appraisal process initially set to finish in 2024. The deal is expected to be finalized by July 24. Disney CEO Bob Iger made the following statement: 'We are pleased this is finally resolved. We have had a productive partnership with NBCUniversal, and we wish them the best of luck.' Meanwhile, The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:DIS) has started merging Hulu with its other streaming services, which are also bundled with ESPN+, its sports streaming platform. While we acknowledge the potential of DIS as an investment, we believe certain AI stocks offer greater upside potential and carry less downside risk.
