Healthcare was one of the sectors that we were unlikely to see much impact in during Obama’s first 100 days. But as we are beginning to get a hold on our economic situation, it is quite likely to see some comprehensive healthcare legislation in the near future. This was discussed yesterday by Les Funtleyder and Arthur Henderson on CNBC (see video below). A few of their favorite stocks were Express Scripts (ESRX), Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd (TEVA), UnitedHealth (UNH), and Illumina (ILMN).
