CVS

Investors, have you ever sold a position too early, or conversely, too late? If so, which stock was it?

I try to sell as little as possible and hold stocks for several years, but I remember, for example, $CVS or $MMM, which I sold because of various problems and lawsuits. A few months later they rose by several tens of percent. Timing isn't always right, but that's just part of...

Yesterday the U.S. government announced higher-than-expected payments for the Medicare Advantage program for 2027, which in after-hours trading pushed shares of $CVS and $UNH roughly 5% higher. Honestly, I'm glad I don't have as much invested in this sector anymore, since stock movements are heavily influenced by government budgets.

The stock is up more than 50% since the beginning of the year and it is clear that it is doing well again after a long time. I sold the stock at a loss last year. Of course, it's not pleasant to see them rise after I sold them, but I still don't like the fundamentals and I won't be buying the stock again.

Have you ever been affected by the FOMO effect? If so, in which investment or stock?

I got influenced by it in the beginning mainly in $NKE and $CVS. I did what everyone else was doing and was afraid of being left behind - which was a mistake. But I've taken a different approach over the last year, and I'm trying to be guided mostly by facts, not sentiment.

CVS stock is up more than 15% after yesterday's results. While the results were not particularly good, they beat expectations. I sold the stock at the beginning of the year and I'm glad I did. The stock is up now, but I still don't like the fundamentals.

What's your take on $CVS?

Are you still holding $CVSstock ?

The stock has already fallen several tens of percent this year and the fundamentals don't look good to me at all. I have a smaller position and plan to still hold, but a lot will also depend on the next earnings.

Today, $CVSstock jumped 5%, but for the year, it's still at a significant loss. I have an intermediate position and am currently approximately -11%. I won't be selling, but I will be very interested in the next results and will decide whether to hold or sell in 2025 based on that.

How do you currently view $CVS? Are you buying, holding or selling?
