Tesla, UnitedHealth Group, and Berkshire Hathaway are the three Insurance stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat's stock screener tool. Insurance stocks are publicly traded shares of companies that underwrite and sell insurance policies—such as life, health, property, and casualty coverage. These firms earn revenue by collecting premiums and investing the resulting float until claims are paid. Investors in insurance stocks typically seek relatively stable cash flows and dividends, though returns can be influenced by underwriting results and shifts in interest rates. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Insurance stocks within the last several days.
