The iShares US Healthcare ETF (IYH-N) is currently receiving positive reviews from experts, particularly in light of recent developments impacting the healthcare sector. Analysts highlight improvements in Medical Loss Ratio (MLR) expectations for managed-care companies, which suggests a potential for improved profitability and operational efficiency in the sector. Additionally, there is optimism regarding the clarity around Medicare Advantage, which could further benefit managed-care providers and thereby influence the performance of the ETF. These factors indicate a potentially favorable environment for investment in the healthcare sector, especially for funds like IYH-N that focus on healthcare companies. Investors are encouraged to consider these developments when evaluating the ETF's potential in relation to its peers.

COMMENT

Healthcare tends to be a little less correlated to the equity market, so it is an ideal place to be. We are approaching the seasonal strength for biotech at the end of June. The chart on this is showing higher lows and higher highs. A similar one, but hedged to the Cdn$, would be BMO Equal Weight US Healthcare (ZUH-T). (See Top Picks.)

BUY

Owns all the large US healthcare names. Continues to move along at a very nice clip.

BUY

This has big holdings in things like Johnson & Johnson (JNJ-N), Pfizer (PFE-N), Merck (MRK-N), etc. Has done very well year to date.

BUY ON WEAKNESS
Likes this area. Going forward, it will be a defensive space. Broke out past its previous resistance point. If you own, Hold. You could add to that on pullbacks.
BUY
Have liked the sector for quite awhile. Has outperformed the S & P 500 since the beginning of the year. Very heavily weighted to large pharma. Short term there's a little bit of a risk, but long term, it's a place you want to have exposure to.
