Jim Cramer’s Mad Money Recap: 5 Stocks, Including CrowdStrike & Microsoft

4. UnitedHealth Group Incorporated (NYSE:UNH)

UnitedHealth Group Incorporated (NYSE:UNH) was among the stocks covered in Jim Cramer’s Mad Money recap as he urged investors to focus on the fundamentals of companies. Cramer showed a positive sentiment toward the company, as he commented:

Then there’s UnitedHealth. This company’s long been the cream of the health insurer crop, but it got hit by some serious management missteps. Sure, this was a tougher one to see coming. Steve Hemsley, a tremendous CEO, ran the company from 2006 to 2017, and his company was the best in the industry by far. UNH ran a ground, not because the business went bad, but because management went bad. Look, I don’t need to rehash it. Others say that Hemsley returned to the CEO role in May of last year. He made it clear that he needed some time to fix the company. He pulled guidance, said there was a lot of work to do. I was genuinely worried that UNH might be permanently broken. I was wrong. The balance sheet was good. Hemsley was his same old great self. Today, the company reported what I think will be the first of many upside surprises. Just like the way Hemsley always used to do, clockwork. You don’t just get one good quarter from Hemsley, you get many. Stock shot up nearly 7%. I think it’s a buy. I think it can return to its former greatness.

UnitedHealth Group Incorporated (NYSE:UNH) provides health care services, insurance plans, pharmacy care, and data-driven solutions.
