YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

On this episode of Stock Movers:

- United Health (UNH) is sinking considerably this morning after it cut its full year adjusted EPS forecast and missed first quarter earnings estimates. The company cites heightened care needs in Medicare and unanticipated changes in its Optum Health care delivery business. The company expects adjusted earnings in 2025 to be $26 to $26.50 a share, down from a previous range of $29.50 to $30 a share, and the company says factors affecting earnings should be "highly addressable" this year and in 2026.

- Hertz (HTZ) jumped this morning after it experienced its biggest gain ever yesterday. The upswing followed a CNBC report that stated Pershing Square Capital Management had amassed a position of almost 20% in the beleaguered car rental company. Bill Ackman’s investment firm said in a filing Wednesday that it bought 12.7 million shares valued at about $46.5 million at the time of the purchase.

- Eli Lilly (LLY) shares are soaring this morning after announcing its drug, orforglipron, became the first small molecule GLP-1 to successfully complete a Phase 3 trial.

- Alcoa (AA) shares are lower this morning after reporting first quarter earnings. While the aluminum producer's adjusted profit topped estimates, its revenue missed forecasts, and the company says it incurred $20 million in costs on tariffs related to Canadian imports.
