No, people who exhibit the [14 characteristics of fascism](https://ratical.org/ratville/CAH/fasci14chars.html) are fascist. The GOP hits 12 of the 14. POTUS hits all 14. Democrats hit ~5.
i put a bunch into CAH/THC/MCK i mean just look at the stock its ready to reverse
" a pharma distribution and logistics company" One that distributes 33% of the pharma products used in the US. The other two names that have pretty much the remaining share (COR, CAH) have done similarly well. MCK is up 390% in the last 5 years, while MSFT is up 65%. Phillip Morris, Exxon, Walmart, Costco and Waste Management are among a lot of boring names that have outperformed MSFT over the last half decade.
Because it's a fantastic company that distributes about 33% of the pharmaceutical products used in the US. It's up about 390% over the last 5 years vs MSFT at +65%. The other two that basically make up the rest of the industry (COR, CAH) have had a great last 5 years, as well. Why have Exxon, Waste Mangement, Walmart, Costco and Phillip Morris outperformed MSFT over the last 5 years? Johnson and Johnson, McDonalds and Coke aren't that far behind.
Mentioned MCK a few times in the last week as part of the view that med distribution (COR, MCK, CAH) is one of the more boring areas that have outperformed some of Mag 7 over the last 5 years. MCK up 14% after earnings yesterday afternoon, CAH up about 9% after earnings this am.
CAG: Institutions are buying consumer staples. They are rotating out of tech. Musk is asking for permission to orbit 1 million satellites in low Earth orbit. Think of the sky being polluted by a multi trillionaire. The big guy has made socialism look cool to the bottom arm of the K shaped economy. But people have to eat and CAH call options are cheap and seeing 2x gains.
Underperformance and recent announcement from the Trump Administration of keeping Medicare Advantage rate steady makes it a hold for me. I’ve had better luck with CAH.
you guys keep posting the same list every week... RKLB!! iReN!! aStS!!!! Here is a REAL LIST CAH STRL well..ASTS ....ASTS is the next AT&T RAMBUS MU AVGO MCK VRT
If you're going to pick individual names, I'd say pick 2 or at most 3 Mag 7 names that you have the strongest thesis for - not 5 and 2/3rds of your portfolio. You're also looking for high growth but over the last half decade two of those Mag 7 names haven't even beaten Walmart and another has beaten it but not by much. I own ASTS but it's up 100% since November. If you're going to buy something like that, I'd be patient and gradually DCA in. There are so many other things out there. I'm up 50% in a year on a Swiss dermatology company. I'm up 25% since last Fall on a Mexican mining conglomerate. Look at some of the sogo shosha names in Japan that Buffett bought 10% of that are up 50-100% in the last year. Medical distribution (MCK, CAH, etc) has outperformed a fair amount of the Mag 7 over the last year/half decade. People seem to have this view that tech is the only game in town when it really, *really* isn't and so often on this sub in the last year there's less and less discussion of tech names where there is more growth going on. In terms of some of the Mag 7 the game hasn't even been that great in recent years. People just habitually buy something like META because they know it but up 157% in the last 5 years isn't that great especially if you're looking for growth. There's a lot of relatively boring things that have beaten that in the last 5 years. The easy money in the power/data center theme has been made, but I mean boring contractor FIX has outperformed NVDA over the last 5 years. People keep buying who's spending the money (Mag 7) rather than the buying the places where they're spending that money - the latter has way outperformed Mag 7 in many cases in the last few years. Not saying these are bad, but this feels like many, many Reddit portfolios and I just think some of the sort of "default buying of Mag 7" ignores that there's better options and after seeing the same Mag 7 dominance in so many portfolios on here for me the impression is that it's crowded. Also, in terms of speculative stuff, what's the next thing, what's a new idea?
Cardinal health is bullish (CAH) great earnings
I made a cool $3 million today off of CAH +15.5% 👍
Alright time for some impressions: New Yorkers, "Hey I'm WALKIN' here!" Bostonians, "I just PAHKED my CAH in the YAHD" Bill Clinton, "I did not have sexual relations with that woman."

UPS, UHN for a bit more, CAH, COST and if DG drops I’m back in on that. Really need that UPS 100 tho.
Yolo'd into CAH (Cardinal Health) stock at the onset of the pandemic.
now imagine if you had spent your winnings on $CAH calls lol you'd be retired already
Bought 25 CAH $150p for $.85 and sold them for $$11.20 each this morning
I think there are about 6 viable / fair / value stocks this earnings week https://imgur.com/a/u5KeMwe IHS FNV B CAH CSCO PNNT
Have you looked at CVS, MCK, COR, CI, CAH, ELV, CNC, WBA, and HCA to compare with UNH and see if their profits suggest any patterns that could point to possible fraud?
if you want to pick aerospace / defence i would rather go with RTX : [https://www.gptplots.com/?ticker=RTX](https://www.gptplots.com/?ticker=RTX) TDG : [https://www.gptplots.com/?ticker=TDG](https://www.gptplots.com/?ticker=TDG) ( been holding since 1200, the forecast has been bang on for this one) On healthcare : None that look great. I do like CAH play, though. There is an old swell and this one would benefit from it. Short term not so great [https://www.gptplots.com/?ticker=CAH](https://www.gptplots.com/?ticker=CAH) Or an insurance play like UNUM [https://www.gptplots.com/?ticker=UNM](https://www.gptplots.com/?ticker=UNM)
Not worried, excited to see CAH on discount
COSTCO WCN WM ADP Charles Schwab (This keeps coming up on my scanners) SPGI Vistra Mueller Industries ICEWAB GS JPM Sterling Infrastructure MCK CAH
Old swell is a thing. Google it. We are aging population. Half the employment gains are in medical services https://www.gptplots.com/?ticker=CAH Buying some cardinal health for longterm
Yeah I get it, you just can't win sometimes though - at least for me, recently regarding trades. I got an idea Cardinal Health sounds really nice and I bought it at like 68/share and held it for years, literally, while it decided to go SIDEWAYS after having a track record of "always going up". So I sold out of it. Now look at the damn CAH chart. 6 months after I sell it rockets to 120+ a share. Pissed me off
Seriously? Just from looking at my screener: CI, GM, F, ELV, CVS, CAH, CNC, PSX, VLO… In fact, UNH’s current market cap as a percentage of revenue still seems to be an outlier in its own category. Not saying it’s a bad investment, but having an MC below revenue isn’t a great buy indicator (eg, WBA, which has FY revenue 15x its MC, but also is very far from a sound investment these days).
Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene also recently made the following trade(s): * Purchased $1,001 – $15,000 in shares of UnitedHealth Group (NYSE:UNH) on 5/16/2025. * Purchased $1,001 – $15,000 in shares of Impinj (NASDAQ:PI) on 5/14/2025. * Purchased $1,001 – $15,000 in shares of Corning (NYSE:GLW) on 5/14/2025. * Purchased $1,001 – $15,000 in shares of Cardinal Health (NYSE:CAH) on 5/14/2025. * Purchased $1,001 – $15,000 in shares of Chevron (NYSE:CVX) on 5/14/2025. * Purchased $15,001 – $50,000 in shares of UnitedHealth Group (NYSE:UNH) on 5/14/2025. * Purchased $1,001 – $15,000 in shares of Blackstone (NYSE:BX) on 5/14/2025. * Purchased $1,001 – $15,000 in shares of ServiceNow (NYSE:NOW) on 5/14/2025. * Purchased $1,001 – $15,000 in shares of Hershey (NYSE:HSY) on 5/14/2025. * Purchased $1,001 – $15,000 in shares of Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) on 5/14/2025.

Nope bought shares of CAH, BYDDY, ET, TM and TSM for today. Not in the options market currently. Also not a bear or bull. Just commenting on the trends.
Still wary of the market for sure but I have to admit pharmaceutical companies have been holding steady with not that much volatility. Mostly holding cash but I have been contributing to MCK and CAH.
Market is crashing $CAH is only down 2% on the week. WHAT THE FUCK
FYI if you missed the short, here is some DD Both LLY and CAH are heavily exposed to newly announced tariffs that slap 10–25% duties on nearly all imported drugs and medical supplies. Eli Lilly relies on overseas manufacturing—especially from Ireland and the EU—for a big chunk of its U.S. pharma inventory, while Cardinal Health distributes generics and devices mostly sourced from China, India, and Mexico. These new costs will either crush margins or force price hikes in a politically sensitive sector. Neither company can pivot fast enough. With Wall Street not fully pricing in the earnings impact yet, there’s still meat on the bone.
Bought $10k in apple $210 puts, $2k in RH 212.5 puts, $15k in LLY $750 puts, $5k in CAH $131 puts, and $7k in JPM $240 puts right at close. Ask me anything
I know this sub is more tech focused but man pharmaceutical suppliers are making a run. CAH absolutely smashes earnings every time. Any other pharmaceutical companies to look into?
Sold my TSLA puts right at opening as I expected the overall market to trend up after the premarket decline. I plan on DCAing TM, CAH, ET and V for today.
I have a kid with CAH disorder but thanks for using her as a pawn
I have a kid with CAH disorder but thanks for using her as a pawn
My mix had little tech involved. I had AMZN, META, MSFT and GOOGL (not counting ETFs) but it represented a small part of my portfolio. I mostly had healthcare (CAH, CI) auto motive (honestly just Toyota), and financials (WFC, BAC, C). Besides that it was ETFs for staples, semiconductors, Japanese stocks, etc. I held onto ET for the dividends and it’s taking a big beating, being -3% for me. My funds will likely still lean healthcare, consumer staples and some more TM.
Two I like for growth are: Rocket Lab (RKLB). Technically categorized as an Industrial in Aerospace & Defense Cardinal Health (CAH) medical supplies.

Yeah I am waiting for any sort of bounce and then getting out. Honestly out of managed health care altogether. Been looking at CAH
Reminds me of one of my favorite CAH cards: "snorching coke off a clown's boner"

War is a Racket https://www.ratical.org/ratville/CAH/warisaracket.html
I mean, I'll give it to you because you're obviously running on braindead reactionary conservative bullshit. But Musk actually did fuck up on this one, his company pretty clearly trespassed and damaged CAH's property then lowballed the compensation offer. Not really a snowflake response
Very green thanks to CAH beat and QFIN beat
the only contribution into a rira is via the max per annum. she contributed 7k per annum for awhile and then grew it via trades within over a few years. i simply took some knowledge and used the CAH to run some CSPs and buy leaps befofe the chip boom. also made some small med bets but never put more than 3% of acct into a single trade.
Did you use SOH CAH TOA to double check
I only have 8 individual dividend stocks (all quarterly scheduled), and I don't go more than 21 days without a dividend payment from someone (wasn't my intention, just how it worked out). Payment dates are all over the place. It's not hard at all to spread out payments with just a moderate effort. For reference, my holdings and their payment dates in the first quarter: 1/1 TSLX, 1/11 MO, 1/15 CAH, 2/1 VZ, 2/15 ABBV, 3/1 WFC, 3/1 ENB, 3/11 XOM
CAH is hitting 120 next week.
CAH blew up my account :(
I’ve got some 2/2 CAH calls with earnings on 2/1, and 2/2 CB calls with earnings on Tuesday
Yeah you can, I only trade SPY. I study SPY charts 24-7 though. So I used to buy ATM 1DTEs but now I only hold for maybe 1-3 hrs during a specific time of day but it depends on the chart that day I also usually only trade 0DTEs now. SPY has pretty consistent movement points and even times tbh. I switched from ATM/ITM as I realized certain aspects of my strategy would be more beneficial if I target a specific time period and could be in and out of trades within an hour or 2 and clear a larger % with more contracts at a lower value. My strategy has worked fairly well no matter the trend also. Strategy could also work on a stock like CAH which I don’t feel people talk about enough but they only have weekly’s
VOO, CAH, AFL, PCVX thoughts?
​ |WSM|17.00%| |:-|:-| |TOL|12.00%| |IDCC|11.00%| |CROX|11.00%| |QFIN|8.50%| |HPQ|8.50%| |CAH|8.50%| |ALL|7.25%| |NXST|7.25%| |STLA|7.25%| My updated portfolio. Made good money from TOL recently. It's a home builder and luckily I bought at the bottom. CROX has been a drain on my portfolio, but it looks like it'll finally develop upwards momentum now. I had to choose between ALL and AXP. Both are financials that look equally attractive to me. I chose ALL. It tends to become undervalued after hurricane damage and short-term disappointment, and it's a smaller company that has historically done well during rate cuts, Recently added IDCC. It looks cheap relative to their growth rate, and they give back value to shareholders which is surprising for a 2B tech company.
CAH calls 
Holy shit, up 3.6%. CAH beat earnings, up 10%. Many others up 3-5%.
It’s not medical data. It’s distributor data. Rite Aid, Walmart, CVS and Walgreens are the largest buyers from the rx/gx distributors (CAH, ABC, MCK). They form several different buying groups like Clarusone and red oak which give Walmart insight into the total amount sold everywhere- not the associated customer data which they would only have on their own customers.
0DTEs are more based on SOH CAH TOA
Sure I'm looking into SWAV BRKR ABT DXCM and CAH. WELL as a sort of side play to hcare
Is there really a such thing as a bagholder at ATHs? To your questions, though. I'm also a LT holder with a cost basis in the 50s. I think CAH is currently overvalued but I think it has enough tailwinds to breakfreak 100. UNH lowered its guidance for the rest of the year due to a resurgence of elective surgeries. That's got to be good for a medical supply company. I've written July 92.5 calls on a portion of my position. As far as downturns, I think the Covid lows are decent floor.
i buy up to 100 shares of any company, set them to DRIP dividends, and generally sell covered calls against those positions at any given time. I open new positions once i got 100 shares, to diversify. working on getting 100 shares of CAH right now, then ill move on to CVX
I'm long the ticker but staying away from options. The other 2 companies in the space (ABC, CAH) reported this week -- both beat and raised guidance but finished the week essentially flat.
Probably Cardinal Health (CAH) or PespiCo (PEP)
CAH but it's overpriced now
1. Elevance Health Inc. (NYSE:ELV) 2. Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE:LLY) 3. Cigna Corporation (NYSE:CI) 4. Cardinal Health, Inc. (NYSE:CAH) 5.Johnson & Johnson (NYSE:JNJ) 6. McKesson Corporation (NYSE:MCK)
Just a reminder this has been a great year for many value stocks: \- Peabody Energy BTU +184% \- Exxon Mobil XOM +72% \- Cardinal Health CAH +54% \- Applied Industrial Technologies AIH +20% \- Gilead Sciences GILD +19% \- Deere DE +18% \- Aflac AFL +18% The best part is, unlike with the speculative tech stocks that ran up in recent years, many of the above including the energy stocks are still cheap even with big share price increases, because their earnings have increased dramatically. A lot of good stories out there in healthcare, industrials, mining and pockets of financials, too.
Niceee this is exactly what I wouldn’t have considered I’ve only been doing this for a year, and I’ve been holding CAH from $49, I thought my average was $67
Yh I guess I was hoping there was something im missing though I don’t know whether I should hold or not coz what happens when the health sector is performing sideways a company like CAH that has minus net profit may not do well and the stock might from to 60s
Hi can somebody explain to me why CAH is doing well recently despite its negative net profit margin? I bought in at $67 and now it’s at $79 and I just don’t know why and can’t figure it out!

This analysis is based on the current option open interest. With that option open interest, it calculates portfolio-level greeks--notably Delta and Gamma. More importantly, once the portfolio level greeks are established, I can now simulate the change in greeks at different price points. From there, I can find the price levels where portfolio-level gamma is the highest, and the portfolio-level delta is close to 0. For some tickers, the underlying price reacts strongly off of delta neutral, gamma max, and sometimes both. It's the reaction off of these price levels in the past that is being used to drive trading signals. The plays and target entry prices given are calculated using a binomial option pricing model that reflect the expected size and duration of the reaction from gamma max or delta neutral. A lot of these plays are profitable by underlying moves in stock. The best plays benefit from the directional move as well as the increase in IV. # Notes * If the price has moved past the entry price, exercise caution. Someone knows something that I don't know. * Look to sell half your position on a double, and freeroll the rest to exit at your discretion. * I tend to risk up to 1% of my total capital on any trades I take. If my conviction is lower, I'll only allocate 0.5% or even 0.25% of my capital to the trade, and dollar cost average in. * The trades were calculated before market open, and so are based on information up to yesterday. Keep that in mind when deciding to enter well after the fact. # FAQ * These plays are mostly puts. Are you a gay bear? * No. It so happens that the companies have had some recent run-up which implies they are overextended. These trades are primarily some form of mean-reversion either toward or away from an important price level. * Are you entering all these plays? * No. There have been a dearth of plays in the WSB morning talks, and so I opened up my bag of tools slightly wider to point out more plays with a probable edge to help lead apes to more gain porn. Go through this curated list of plays, pick the ones you like based on whatever additional analysis you use, and get that gain porn.
Eyeing up CAH and SONO puts for earnings after close. Flow looking bearish. P/C ratio high on both
I'm poop poo at this stuff. Though I bought stocks that pay dividens on different months. APL, KO, CAH, EPD. As a side bet I'm going to throw more into KO and into NSRGY. We're going to hit a water and food shortage before tech gets to Detroit Becoming Human level. So invest who controls most of the sources now.

Long CVS, best in the sector. The vision to be vertically integrated is going well. Aetna, CVS pharmacy, CVS retail, PBM. I hope they add a distributor to save costs and synergize. Hoping CAH. But they want debt down to increase dividend. Which is a good plan and executing well.
So is anyone else worried that some pencil neck banking Bureaucrats are going to send our children to war again for their paper schemes. We need to revisit https://ratical.org/ratville/CAH/warisaracket.html War is a Racket by Major General Smedley Butler.
sorry you keep doing these and i imagine you sitting with a big box of CAH looking for the next one. I'm done trading options, I'm going back to drinking gasoline to see what it tastes like.
📮 My degenerate Taliban ban bang gamble (Part 2) **Licit opioids suppliers** Tasmania--an island state of Australia--is the world's leading supplier of licit opioids. They grow about [85% of the world’s thebaine](https://www.nytimes.com/2014/07/20/business/international/tasmania-big-supplier-to-drug-companies-faces-changes.html), which is an opium poppy extract used to make [OxyContin](https://oxycontin.com) and other powerful prescription drugs. By 2015, Johnson & Johnson (JNJ) [was the leading supplier](https://www.nytimes.com/2019/08/27/health/johnson-and-johnson-opioids-oklahoma.html) of the raw ingredients in painkillers in the United States. However, we need to consider all the lawsuits and settlements against the company, and how they have divested from their Tasmanian poppy-growing holdings. Besides, this is just a fraction of their business. I'm adding her to a watchlist, though. Extractas Bioscience--which used to be Tasmanian Alkaloids--is the largest opium poppy processing company in Tasmania. It was a subsidiary of JNJ, but as I said, JNJ moved away from this. It was [acquired by SK Capital](https://www2.deloitte.com/au/en/pages/consumer-industrial-products/articles/global-oversupply-impacts-tasmanian-poppy-industry.html). No ticker here.I searched for [Extractas' competitors](https://craft.co/extractas), but they're all private. GlaxoSmithKline (GSX) had a piece of the pie, but they also moved away. They sold to Sun Pharmaceuticals. No ADRs here. Noramco is another one from JNJ, but no ticker now, either.TPI Enterprises is only listed on the Australian Securities Exchange. Furthermore, we need to consider the crackdown on the amount of opiate-based medication available in the United States and how companies are walking away and facing lawsuits and settlements because of this.**So be careful, these stocks might get some bad news and tank.** Let's add the distributors to the watchlist: MCK, WBA, ABC, CAH, CVS **MCK** She's consolidating, but she's pretty high. I would wait for a breakout. Same thing with **ABC**, and I'm especially looking at **CAH**. I'm setting alerts here. **WBA** Walgreens? Why is she doing so bad? [She beat earnings](https://www.cnbc.com/2022/01/06/walgreens-boots-alliance-wba-q1-2022-earnings.html), but investors got scared because of rising labor costs and expected single-digit EPS? And some analyst downgrade for her biggest 1-day selloff since Jul 2021? I'll research this more, but I'm gambling a couple of **WBA Apr22 45.5c** for $0.25. **CVS** I bought this morning. 🎾 [CVS Apr22 105c](https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbetsOGs/comments/tvz7ph/comment/i3cxlk5/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) for $0.24 Now, companies that made opioids: Actavis Pharma, which Teva Pharmaceutical Industries (TEVA) bought in 2016; a subsidiary of Endo Pharmaceuticals (ENDP); and a ticker under the minimum market cap. **TEVA** I bought this morning. 🎾 [TEVA Apr14 9.5c](https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbetsOGs/comments/tvz7ph/comment/i3cp00o/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) for $0.23 (I already closed that 🎾 play, though) **ENDP** I'll wait for a breakout. And the other one, I did buy shares as mentioned in [the preamble](https://www.reddit.com/r/wallstreetbetsOGs/comments/tvz7ph/comment/i3ctf94/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) to this post. **Remember, bad news from lawsuits can affect this play. And although TEVA and CVS are doing well, it might be for completely different reasons.** Thoughts?
As long as it's not a 100% tax I will continue to invest in companies and trade in stocks. My critique is based on dissatisfaction with how funds are appropriated by lawmakers and who they benefit (maybe it benefits me, indirectly). We demonize the super-rich but we also need changes to the system so money isn't tucked away on page 465/2567 of some bill. And I am more concerned about the distribution of that tax wealth benefitting all the people who need it, regardless of all those noble categories etc etc. Ok I'm gonna get off my soap box and figure out if I'm buying CAH, DOC, and/or STOR. <mic drop>
If your broker is any good, it should have an online tool that allows you to define a search for large cap stocks (which usually have good option liquidity) that also pay good dividends. I suggest you focus on stocks with solid dividend growth rates rather than high dividends. They pay better in the long run. That said, I track BAC, CAH, CAT, CLX, DOW, HON, INTC, PEP, PFE among others.
LOL you cant seriously consider today a win can you? Playing chess with bulls is like playing with a pigeon, theyll walk around the board shitting everywhere and act like they won. Its maddening. I doubt you understand options because thats just par for the course here, but take a look at SPY and just see how its been doing this year and then take another look at your saying puts are dumb. Just because im dramatic doesnt at all mean im wrong. PUTS ARE CAH-RUSHING it and anyone claming the market is in a good spot is cray. Rate hikes will be the nail. Everything else is just filler.
