Greenlight Capital stated the following regarding Tenet Healthcare Corporation (NYSE:THC) in its fourth quarter 2023 investor letter:

“Tenet Healthcare Corporation (NYSE:THC) returned 55% during the year and was our fourth largest winner. The stock climbed as the company was able to reduce its reliance on expensive temporary labor and benefited from a stronger healthcare utilization environment, especially on the outpatient side. We did even better by trimming about a third of our position into mid-year strength and then buying much of that back into autumn weakness that was triggered by what we believe are irrational fears that new weight loss drugs will materially reduce demand for hospital care and outpatient surgery. The shares recovered late in the year, particularly after the company sold three hospitals at a premium valuation, which caused the market to rethink the value of the remaining business.”
