Overview of CVS Health's Business and Stock Performance
CVS Health is often recognized as a local pharmacy, but it operates as a comprehensive healthcare company encompassing various sectors, making it a vertically integrated entity. The company includes Aetna, a major benefits manager, and Caremark, a pharmacy benefit manager. Recently, CVS's stock experienced a downturn following a pre-announcement of earnings that fell short of expectations, combined with a significant management change. The departure of the CEO, perceived as a sign of ongoing execution issues, has led to the promotion of a new leader from within the organization in hopes of revitalizing performance and addressing investor concerns.
