The CEO of United Healthcare was murdered outside of an investor meeting.

You're listening to Motley Full Money.

I'm Ricky Mulvey, joined today by Jason Moser.

Jason, we are starting today with a darker and wilder story than we normally do.

Brian Thompson, the CEO of United Healthcare, was shot and killed in Midtown Manhattan yesterday morning.

We don't know much. The killer as of this recording has not been caught by the police.

We do know that it was very targeted.

The New York Times reports that authorities are running ballistics tests on the bullet

casings, which appear to have the words delay and deny on them, possibly in reference to

United Health Care denying insurance claims.

This story has been a lot to take in.

What's been going through your mind as you've digested it over the past day, day and a

half?

Yeah. I mean, I think like most people, this, you know, this it over the past day, day and a half. Yeah.

I mean, I think like most people, this, you know, this just, it's awful, right?

I mean, we think about this and that's the one word that I keep coming back to.

This is just horrible.

I mean, first and foremost, we feel for the victim in his family.

I mean, this is just, it's almost, I mean, it's hard to even conceive. It does, it does

seem like it has to do with a disgruntled individual who was unhappy with some sort of result or

or some sort of call that was made by the business. That said, I mean, there's just no excuse for

something like this. And I really do hope uh we ultimately we ultimately see justice
