Oscar Health Inc. shares dropped by 5.00% as it crossed below the 5-day SMA, indicating a bearish trend. Despite the overall market strength, with the Nasdaq-100 up 0.86% and the S&P 500 up 0.41%, Oscar Health's decline appears to be a result of sector rotation, as other healthcare stocks also faced pressure. This movement may reflect investor concerns about the competitive landscape in the healthcare sector, particularly in light of recent calls for reform and significant discount negotiations by larger competitors.
