As I posted for Cigna, Health sector revenues are of the most stable. Cigna and Humana are well priced, middle capitalized and still gearing for innovation.

These sister trades will provide a touch of diversification. One may fail and one may succeed but on overall these two picks represent a nice area of growth within a typically recession proof sector.
