13 Stocks in Jim Cramer’s Game Plan This Week

3. UnitedHealth Group Incorporated (NYSE:UNH)

Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 139

UnitedHealth Group Incorporated (NYSE:UNH) is one of the stocks in Jim Cramer’s game plan this week. Cramer discussed that the ongoing criminal probe does not spell doom for the company, as he said:

“Tuesday, before the open, UnitedHealth Group reports. Yesterday, the company basically admitted there’s a criminal probe and it’s cooperating. I think this cooperation actually takes any existential worries off the table. You don’t have to be concerned that Medicare fraud could take down the entire company. It’s a positive development, even as I think this remains an uninvestible story.”

UnitedHealth Group (NYSE:UNH) provides health care services, including benefit plans, care delivery, pharmacy programs, and health technology solutions. During the July 14 episode, a caller inquired about the stock, and Cramer replied:

“UnitedHealth is very, very tricky, and it might be a long-term turn, but I will tell you this, Steve Hemsley is the only person I know who could possibly turn this thing around. Hemsley’s back as CEO, he was amazing. I think you have to have fortitude to be in it. I don’t like the situation because there’s so many winners, as you say, but at least I want people to know that I think Hemsley’s is the real deal.”
