Baby boomer population is getting old and I expect the lab testing to increase in the future (with Quest being the top dog)...I bought this in early Oct 2006 when there was a major drop in price (over 10%) with the news of the loss of the UnitedHealthcare contract. Hoping I bought low and will reap the benefits.

I have held DGX since the days when it was MetPath and spun off from Corning. Employees voice concern in leadership, but return on investment continues to deliver. A renewal with United Healthcare would have eroded margins. I think LabCorp will choke on the contract. You should reap!
