Stocks That Hit 52-Week Lows On Thursday

XR Energy Inc

President-elect Donald Trump has nominated <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care/24/11/42077935/trump-picks-dr-oz-who-says-seniors-should-give-medical-marijuana-a-try-to-lead-centers-for-medicare-and-medicaid-services">Dr. Mehmet Oz</a> to lead the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), sparking conversations about potential changes to Medicare. This key agency oversees health programs for over 160 million Americans, including Medicare, Medicaid and the Children's Health Insurance Program.

<li>Can you guess how many Americans successfully retire with $1,000,000 saved?<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/1milsaved"> The percentage may shock you</a>.</li>
</ul>
Dr. Oz, best known for his TV show and controversial medical advice, is a vocal proponent of expanding Medicare Advantage (MA), the private alternative to traditional Medicare.&nbsp;
How could his nomination impact Medicare beneficiaries – particularly in regard to their costs and benefits?
Dr. Oz has long championed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/10/41570507/medicare-advantage-shake-up-how-health-insurance-plans-could-change-for-up-to-44-000-new-hampshi">Medicare Advantage</a>, which allows seniors to opt for private plans instead of traditional Medicare. These plans often appeal to enrollees with lower premiums and additional perks like dental, hearing and gym memberships. However, they come with trade-offs, such as limited provider networks and prior authorization requirements that can delay or deny care.

Currently, 54% of Medicare enrollees are in Advantage plans, which could grow under Oz's leadership. Some experts speculate that Oz might push to make MA the default choice for new enrollees, as suggested in the conservative Heritage Foundation&#8217;s Project 2025 report.
"When plans are paid more, that does seem to result in more generous benefits for Medicare Advantage enrollees," Matthew Fiedler of the Brookings Institution told Yahoo Finance. However, critics warn that this could strain Medicare's finances.
In announcing Oz's nomination, Trump stated that TV doctors would reduce &#8220;waste and fraud&#8221; in Medicare, which costs the government billions annually. According to the Government Accountability Office (GAO), improper payments in Medicare and Medicaid exceeded $100 billion in 2023. Addressing these issues could help extend Medicare's solvency, especially as its trust fund faces potential depletion by 2036.

Yet, experts are skeptical about significant changes targeting Medicare Advantage, which some studies suggest leads to overpayments and excessive profits for insurers. The Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget estimated that Medicare Advantage overpayments could cost taxpayers up to $1.6 trillion over the next decade.
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/health-care/24/11/42077057/trump-picks-dr-oz-as-centers-for-medicare-and-medicaid-services-administrator">Oz and Trump</a> have expressed a desire to make prescription drugs more affordable. While Oz has discussed streamlining clinical trials to cut costs, it remains unclear if he would support provisions from the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), such as Medicare's $2,000 cap on out-of-pocket drug expenses.
Trending: Many are using this retirement income calculator to check if they&#8217;re on pace —<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-do-i-calculate-my-retirement-income-adv"> here&#8217;s a breakdown on what&#8217;s behind this formula.</a>
Although some Republicans advocate repealing the IRA, most experts believe the cap on drug costs will remain untouched. "Nobody's going to mess with the $2,000 cap," says elder advocate Bob Blancato at the Gerontological Society of America (GSA) conference before Oz was nominated.
Oz's leadership could mean expanded access to Medicare Advantage plans for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/biotech/24/10/41257459/biden-administration-unveils-plan-to-provide-generic-drugs-for-2-to-medicare-recipients">Medicare beneficiaries</a>, potentially offering more perks but with stricter provider networks. However, these changes might also increase costs for taxpayers and the traditional Medicare program in the long term.
Ultimately, whether Dr. Oz can deliver on promises to cut waste and fraud while maintaining or improving benefits remains to be seen. Seniors and policymakers alike will be watching closely as his tenure unfolds. Understanding these potential changes can help you make informed decisions about your health care options.&nbsp;

Gross Margin: The company issues a cost efficiency warning with a low gross margin of 24.56%, indicating potential difficulties in maintaining profitability compared to its peers.
</li>
<li>
Earnings per Share (EPS): CoreCivic's EPS is below the industry average. The company faced challenges with a current EPS of 0.19. This suggests a potential decline in earnings.
</li>

<h3>The Importance of Insider Transactions</h3>
Investors should view insider transactions as part of a multifaceted analysis and not rely solely on them for decision-making.
In legal terms, an "insider" refers to any officer, director, or beneficial owner of more than ten percent of a company's equity securities registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This can include executives in the c-suite and large hedge funds. These insiders are required to let the public know of their transactions via a Form 4 filing, which must be filed within two business days of the transaction.
When a company insider makes a new purchase, that is an indication that they expect the stock to rise.
Insider sells, on the other hand, can be made for a variety of reasons, and may not necessarily mean that the seller thinks the stock will go down. 
<h3>Navigating the World of Insider Transaction Codes</h3>
When analyzing transactions, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/investing-tools">investors</a> tend to focus on those in the open market, detailed in Table I of the Form 4 filing. A P in Box 3 denotes a purchase,while S signifies a sale. Transaction code C signals the conversion of an option, and transaction code A denotes a grant, award, or other acquisition of securities from the company.

<h3>Delving Into the Significance of Insider Transactions</h3>
While insider transactions should not be the sole basis for making investment decisions, they can play a significant role in an investor's decision-making process.
When discussing legal matters, the term "insider" refers to any officer, director, or beneficial owner holding more than ten percent of a company's equity securities, as stipulated in Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This includes executives in the c-suite and significant hedge funds. Such insiders are required to report their transactions through a Form 4 filing, which must be completed within two business days of the transaction.
A new purchase by a company insider is a indication that they anticipate the stock will rise.
On the other hand, insider sells may not necessarily indicate a bearish view and can be motivated by various factors.
