UNH, which now replaced Pacificare HMO, was similarly omitted from my list of available HMO's offered by my employer's health plan. I am sure UNH's price bidding was less competitive compared to Blue Cross (WLP) or Healthnet, both of which were still available for my company next year.

Cramer is still hanging on to it though, claimed it is too cheap to sell.

UNH, WLP, KFY -
switched some of my position in UNH into WLP for aforementioned reasons. WLP incidentally affirmed earnings for Y2007 today.

I took an exploratory (in Paul's terms ) position in KFY. this is a stock I picked from a Magic formula screen. KFY is the large headhunter agency. Obviously a cyclical business but ROA can be pretty good (as the magic formula attests).
