Enter Buffett. No fanfare, no hints dropped to CNBC, no “Buffett tracker” countdown. Just a quiet, $1.6 billion stake built while everyone else was chasing shiny objects in tech. And then — boom — the filing hits in mid-August. $UNH rips higher. Traders pile in. Investors nod like old sages. One disclosure. Two reactions. But the bigger story? Buffett just planted his flag in the middle of a battlefield most investors were too scared to step foot on.

Over the past three months, five Wall Street analysts have issued 12-month price targets for Premier ($PINC). Their forecasts range from a high of $24.00 to a low of $20.00, with an average target of $22.40. That consensus implies a 14.5% decline from the stock’s most recent close at $26.21.
