This ETF offers targeted exposure to health care services companies, a narrow slice of the U.S. economy that includes health care service providers, managed health care firms, health care facilities, and health care distributors. The health care sector may be appealing to investors looking to add stability to their portfolio, and this corner of the market is also capable of delivering solid distribution yields to investors. Given the relatively narrow focus, this fund probably is of little use to investors building a long-term, buy-and-hold portfolio; it will be more useful to those looking to establish a tactical tilt within their portfolios.
