UNH is another I've been watching for several years but haven't bought. Just keeps going higher and higher...

You have to buy UNH on any significant pullbacks. Had a chance a few weeks back at $260. This stock is just one you hold and never look back!

I've missed UNH too. If I really want a stock that just won't drop I eventually give up and just nibble on down days. Then nibble more on subsequent down days and pretend like I am getting away with something. "Precision Dollar Cost Averaging" lol. Don't go all in at once or you'll crash the market for sure.

Amazing considering the 15% raise 6 months ago. Makes up for the freeze a couple years ago when ag sales fell off a cliff. Sometimes patience pays off.

You can thank me for selling. It opened the door to finally raising the dividend!

I'll take it! I'm a big fan of this company. Maybe that's imprudent, given the constantly declining AUM, but the yield is (much) higher than it appears, they have lots of cash, a low payout ratio, and aggressive buybacks. I certainly wouldn't make this a core holding, but I'm tempted to add a little at these prices (which would average my cost down).

Agreed!  I've owned BEN for many years but it's never been a large or core position.
