The iShares S&P Global Healthcare ETF (XHC-T) is highly regarded as one of the best healthcare ETFs, particularly for those seeking dividends. Experts commend its broad exposure to large-cap healthcare companies, including pharmaceutical giants and healthcare services. While the Canadian market offers limited healthcare options, XHC-T competes well against alternatives like IXJ, especially depending on the investor's currency preference. Although considered a stable investment, there is recognition that healthcare equities can experience volatility due to potential government interventions, especially in the U.S. healthcare landscape. Overall, XHC-T appeals to those looking for a combination of defensive stability and growth opportunities within the healthcare sector.
Thinly traded but the market maker has a lot up there in Bid & Ask so liquidity is really not an issue when it comes to ETF’s. Have been some pretty good movement in the global health care stocks. This one has been attractive and people have been pumping money into them on market downturns based on commodity prices being pounded. He is not big on healthcare right now and you’ve had a pretty good move on this one and feels there are other areas with more value.

Health Care Sector. Likes it in general, long term. It will have volatility. If we get a correction, wait for it to come to $25. A nice stable place to get a yield from.
