  The opportunity exists because the once-thriving secondary/tertiary life settlement market has been all but abandoned by institutional investors, scared off by litigious insurers like Phoenix and a lack of manufactured policies. My research indicates that this undue pessimism towards life settlement contracts (LSC) has begun to reverse itself, or has at least stabilized. Investors who are far smarter than me are snapping up contracts and policies, seeking to capitalize on the uncorrelated, and excessive, IRRs. These investors seem to agree with our thesis that life settlements should outperform most other asset classes over a long enough time period.

  And it was the reversal of a seemingly adverse change behind a health plans rally last week. After an unfavorable government reimbursement decision for Medicare Advantage plans was reversed, shares of Humana (NYSE: HUM  ) and UnitedHealth Group (NYSE: UNH  ) surged to finish up 13% and 9% for the week, respectively.

• [By Sean Williams]

  On one hand, and in all fairness to Obamacare, when was the last time we saw any multibillion-dollar overhaul cost less than initially projected? Then again, these 73% have viable concerns, given that the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, or CMS, reversed a recommendation last month to boost Medicare Advantage reimbursements by 3.3% instead of dropping them by 2.3% as it initially recommended in February. The move, the CMS claims, was made after it recalculated how doctors were being paid. However, it also came on the heels of lobbying attempts by the insurance industry and about 160 lawmakers. If the cost of Obamacare goes well over budget, that'll be great news for Humana (NYSE: HUM  ) �Humana generates 63% of its revenue from Medicare Advantage plans, which are supplemental health plans purchased by seniors to help offset the costs not covered by Medicare. If the government is unable to lower reimbursements to these companies, then Humana may have little to worry about.�

• [By Matt Thalman]

  Dow losers
  Shares of UnitedHealth (NYSE: UNH  ) are down slightly, probably because of a report that the FBI and SEC have subpoenaed a number of individuals who are believed to have been involved in an April 1 leak indicating that Medicare Advantage reimbursement rates would actually increase after previously announcing a proposed 2.3% cut to rates. UnitedHealth and competitors Humana (NYSE: HUM  ) and Aetna saw share prices surge after the news broke. Nothing indicates that any of these companies were involved in any wrongdoing.

• [By Ben Levisohn]

  Yesterday, Humana (HUM) left investors feeling sick. Is the recent weakness a buying opportunity or is today’s relative strength chance to sell into strength?

  Shares of Humana dropped 1.8% yesterday after it met fourth-quarter earnings forecast, maintained its 2014 guidance, and reported higher-than-expected revenue thanks to rapid Medicare membership growth.

  Citigroup’s Carl McDonald worries that “[growing much faster than the rest of the industry rarely ends well in managed care." He explains why:

  In Humana�� case, Medicare Advantage enrollment did quite well in 2012, but the company missed earnings, while PDP enrollment did quite well in 2008, but the company missed earnings. This year, Medicare Advantage retail enrollment will increase 50% more than Humana initially expected, while PDP enrollment will grow 375% more than Humana�� first guidance.

  Humana believes 2014 will be different,�McDonald says, but worries that "Humana is picking up
  members that competing plans are eager to lose." He rates Humana's stock Neutral with a $95 price target.

  JPMorgan's Justin Lake takes a longer-term view:

  With [near-term] uncertainty on rates and margins we expect the stock to remain volatile over next several months. These concerns do not change our positive multi-year view on the business and we remind investors that it was not very long ago that the debate in Med Adv was whether membership would decline precipitously due to rate pressure, destroying shareholder value. Now we see that not only [Humana], but the rest of the industry, has grown through the first half of 2014/2015 pressure and the debate has shifted to whether margins will be closer to 4.0% or 5.0% during the transition. Over time, we expect the focus to center on: 1) the growing Med Adv end market, 2) the industry�� ability to offer value to seniors w/o rate subsidies, 3) [Humana's] strong competitive positioning versus peers, and 4) the
