Elevance Health equity questions

How much ELV stock is too much?
There is no single threshold, but the larger the share of your net worth in one stock, the more a single bad year can set back your plans. The calculator above quantifies the drawdown impact at 30, 50, and 70 percent for your ELV position and weighs selling down (which triggers capital-gains tax now) against hedging (which costs option premium).
Does Elevance Health grant ISOs, NSOs, or RSUs?
Equity compensation at Elevance Health typically takes the form of restricted stock units (RSUs). Restricted stock units are taxed as ordinary income when they vest.
Do Elevance Health RSUs use double-trigger vesting?
