What are the best healthcare ETFs?

When it comes to the best healthcare ETFs, the Health Care Select Sector SPDR Fund ( XLV, $146.12) is the leader as far as assets under management. It's elegantly simple, taking every healthcare component in the S&P 500 index of large U.S. stocks and excluding all the other stocks from the remaining sectors.

How many healthcare ETFs are there?

The healthcare ETF universe is composed of about 33 distinct ETFs that trade in the U.S., excluding inverse and leveraged ETFs as well as funds with less than $50 million in assets under management (AUM).

Should you invest in a health care ETF?

From 2010 to 2019, health care spending per capita grew 3.7 percent annually compared to 3.4 percent growth for the U.S. economy as a whole, according to Peterson-KFF’s Health System Tracker. So a health care ETF could offer an attractive way to invest in a resilient sector of the economy.
