Our pick just so happens to be the largest health insurer in the nation, covering a wide range of plans for individuals and organizations. Its huge scope has allowed our pick to generate billions in premiums and create significant cash flows from its investments. Those cash flows and premium profits continue to support the firm’s other endeavors as well.
That includes a hefty dose of technology, data mining, and clinical operations. The addition of these assets continue to drive profits and cash flows. And with that, our pick has managed to beat the broader market nine out of the last ten years as well as provide 12 years’ worth of dividend increases!
