The Forbes mags' shares the below advantages of holding a healthcare "Defensive" Company Share.
"1. As defensive stocks, healthcare companies provide steady returns in any market. Because people will always need healthcare, the healthcare sector provides very steady, consistent returns that are uncorrelated with the overall direction of the stock market.
2. The U.S. healthcare sector is growing faster than the rest of the economy. Growth in the sector is being propelled by technological advances, an aging population and improving treatments for chronic diseases and conditions.
3. Healthcare spending in the U.S. is seeing strong, sustained growth. National health spending is projected to grow at an average annual rate of 5.4% through 2028, reaching $6.2 trillion and 19.7% of the country’s GDP."
