Profit:
CVS Health impresses with its extremely reliable profit development.
Over a 10-year period, CVS Health's earnings growth is 5.5% per year. However, analysts expect a decline in profits for the current financial year.
The current P/E ratio (price/earnings ratio) is 11.33, which is 0.63 points below the historical average of 11.96 for the last 10 years. From this perspective, the CVS Health share appears to be favorably valued.

I am curious to know what you think of CVS Health.
$BMY (-0,14 %) closed before the weekend and took a small profit.
$CVS (-1,87 %) is dragging down the healthcare sector and the share is moving sideways in the hourly chart.
Better safe than sorry.
What's going on at $CVS (-1,87 %) going on? Does anyone know anything? 😅
Moin Moin,
have just opened a new position with $NU (+0,57 %) I am all in all still 400€ in the minus (don't know yet why it is not entered correctly), but it is getting better and better and stupid and risky trades are getting less and less.
I am 23 years old and just want to take something with me in the long term for my pension or whatever will or will not exist by then. I'm also going to start with crypto soon, I'm getting some information from a colleague at work and I'm also doing some research on the side. Do you think that's too many positions?
from $AMD (-0,12 %) &$CVS (-1,87 %) I'm only holding one now, I want to try to hold one more share that I used to have more of.
thank you very much and have a nice evening
