A CVS-Aetna deal could force Wal-Mart to buy Humana, analyst says

Wal-Mart could consider a deal for Humana, according to Leerink Partners senior health care analyst Ana Gupte.

Buying Humana would cost more than $46 billion, she suggested.

CVS is reportedly closing in on a $66 billion deal for Aetna, which would be the largest in health insurance history.

Walmart announced this week that effective February, 2018 it will making a subtle name change from Walmart Stores, Inc to Walmart, Inc. They are straying from the idea that Walmart is only a store. Hmmm.

What is the point of that comment? Wal-Mart sells the same exact groceries as Publix, Albertsons, Piggly Wiggly, Target, or any other store...shop the perimeter of the store and you won't have to look at the processed junk in bulk.

Besides the issues of cigarettes at pharmacies , Walmart with all the junky processed foods and big sized sugar filled junk. Yes they have a decent produce Dept with organic choices but the vast majority of “ food” is not healthy.

Good deal. CVS and Walgreens the Pharmacies that continue to sell cigarettes. What sort of heath message is that. As for the speculation of Walmart buying Humana. So the new website will no longer be http://www.peopleofwalmart.com but http://www.peopleofwalmartandhumana.com
