Matthew Coffina, analyst at Morningstar, recommended WellPoint:

a. the company has disappointed shareholders so far in 2008, as premiums have failed to keep pace with rising medical costs and margins have contracted.

b. analyst thinks the market overreacted to short-term adversity, creating a buying opportunity for long-term investors.

c. WellPoint has significant competitive advantages that will support outsize returns over the long run.

d. At recent prices, analyst expects WellPoint stock to return 35% over the next three years, which is more than the market seems to be expecting.
