This reflects the resilience of healthcare equities during interest rate uncertainty. However, the sector has gotten riskier due to the rise of Eli Lilly, which has increased severalfold over the last few years and now sports a market cap of $719 billion at the time of this writing. That makes Eli Lilly the highest-weighted component in the Vanguard Health Care ETF, with a 10.5% weighting. Eli Lilly's gains have come mainly from its dominance in the weight loss drug market, which could be seen as more of a discretionary product than other drugs. So going forward, the healthcare sector could be a little less safe. Vanguard's technology ETF holds large, mid and small tech stocks, including hardware and software providers and semiconductor companies. The benchmark index is MSCI US IMI Info Technology 25/50. At $274.90, VHT stock price reflects stable investor sentiment toward healthcare. Earnings forecasts for the sector’s constituents have largely exceeded consensus, underpinning ETF valuation.
