My research team and I just crunched all of the numbers…

And we’re finally ready to weigh in with OUR TAKE on the ObamaCare vs TrumpCare debate.

We’ve left no stone unturned. And today we’ll show you everything, including our list of LOSERS and WINNERS.

With debates raging in Washington, let’s take a look…

And as you can imagine, the new TrumpCare bill proposes some major policy changes to existing ObamaCare…

This means potentially HUGE shakeups in healthcare investments- and as our research shows, namely, the downfall of health insurers…

Since ObamaCare became law in March 2010, health insurance companies have been the big winners:

UnitedHealth Group (UNH) up 506%
Aetna Inc. (AET) up 449%
Humana Inc. (HUM) up 407%

The reason for the massive gains?

Believe it or not, the most controversial part of ObamaCare was the catalyst: The Individual Mandate.

This mandate required all individuals to acquire health insurance in one way or another… Or pay a fine.

To offset high insurance costs, government subsidies were given to facilitate low income families.

These families then signed up for coverage with private insurers, who have since continued to rake in Uncle Sam’s subsidies- sending the sector skyrocketing.

However, under TrumpCare, this is all set to change.

President Trump has been a vocal critic of the individual mandate, which means under TrumpCare, people could potentially forgo health insurance without fear of being fined.

In addition, those that keep health insurance will have their government subsidies lowered substantially… Take a look for yourself with these examples from across the country:

Subsidies in Chattanooga, Tennessee are projected to fall by 53%
Subsidies in Yuma, Arizona are projected to fall by 61%
Subsidies in Allentown, Pennsylvania are projected to fall by 42%

This spells grave danger for insurance companies, who have recently relied on increased customers to boost both profits and share prices.

The bill hasn’t been signed into law yet. But if it does, health insurance stocks should watch out below.

But, while the debate rages on, I didn’t want to leave you empty handed. That’s why my team and I looked at the WINNERS in this situation…

Here’s the sector primed to surge:

This idea came to me as I was leaving our headquarters in Baltimore, Maryland…

We’ve all been there before– slouched over driving through bumper-to-bumper traffic.

This time I was crawling through the prestigious Johns Hopkins Hospital campus– an area constantly under construction.

When I wasn’t being cut-off or rerouted, I’d admire the sky-high cranes and newly constructed buildings. I had a front-row seat to Baltimore’s major healthcare build-out.

But the story I want to share with you today is much bigger than that…

This same, HUGE healthcare build-out is happening all over the U.S!
