The iShares S&P Global Healthcare ETF (XHC-T) has garnered attention as a top option for investors looking for healthcare exposure, particularly given the limited Canadian offerings in this sector. It is considered a well-diversified choice with investments in major large-cap healthcare companies, including pharmaceuticals and health services such as UnitedHealth Group (UNH). Experts highlight the ETF's ability to provide both defensive stability and growth potential, although they caution that events, especially governmental changes in the U.S., can introduce some volatility. The demographic trends in healthcare are favorable, and while the sector has lagged recently, it may see a rebound as markets normalize and clarity returns to U.S. policies. For those looking to balance income and growth, a strategy combining XHC with other income-focused ETFs may offer a sound approach.
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.
