Shares of UnitedHealth Group (UNH [https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/UNH]) plunged 20% on Tuesday after the health care giant reported an earnings miss. The sharp selloff quickly rippled through the ETF landscape, weighing on funds with meaningful exposure to the stock.

UnitedHealth is widely held across the ETF universe, with 408 ETFs owning the shares and a combined ~145M shares held within those portfolios.
