Why Change Healthcare Is Rising Today
Shares of Change Healthcare (NASDAQ: CHNG), a healthcare stock that provides data and analytical tools that are designed to improve healthcare systems, rose as much as 11% in early morning trading on Monday. As of 12:50 p.m. EST, shares were up 5%.
The pop is most likely linked to Change's announcement that healthcare supply giant McKesson (NYSE: MCK) is no longer one of its major shareholders. As previously announced, McKesson and Change Healthcare have decided to part ways. That split officially took place today, and McKesson no longer owns any voting or economic interest in the business.
