2024年10月25日,Universal Health Services Inc(UHS)股价在盘中出现大幅下挫,一度下跌超过10%。当日行业内其他龙头公司如HCA Healthcare、Tenet Healthcare等也均出现下跌。
造成当日医疗保健版块股价普遍下跌的主要原因,是行业内龙头企业HCA Healthcare公布的第三季度财报数据一再令人失望。HCA Healthcare是美国最大的医院运营商,其公布的第三季度利润低于市场预期,且预计第四季度也将受到飓风等天气不利影响。
虽然Universal Health Services Inc自身尚未发布最新财报,但作为同行,其难免也受到行业疲软的拖累。分析师预计,医疗手术推迟等因素影响了收入和利润。不过,大多数分析师认为这只是暂时性调整,不会改变公司长期良好的发展前景。
