I agree totally that the utimate share price will be a result of earnings and earnings growth; however, market perception is a key indicator of stock performance in the short term. The Street was dissapointed from the latest quarter numbers and pressure on the stock will continue as long as the market is not fully aware of HUM's story.

It's pretty obvious that you can't rely on number crunching to come up with a fair price for the shares. It has traded at far less than the growth rate for the last 2 years. There simply is no correlation between price and past/present/future growth rate here. The market wizards have decided the company is in for a tough ride and have decided to err on the side of caution. I would suggest your 10% risk factor is more like 50% in reality. I personally would like to see the management allaying these concerns but I'm sure you'll agree their priority should be first & foremost on growing the company.
