Description: XLV Health Care Sector SPDR Fund December 17, 2025
The Health Care Select Sector SPDR® Fund (XLV) seeks to replicate the S&P 500 Health Care Index by investing at least 95 % of its assets in the index’s constituents. Its exposure spans pharmaceuticals, health-care equipment & supplies, providers & services, biotechnology, life-sciences tools & services, and health-care technology, making it a non-diversified ETF focused exclusively on the U.S. health-care sector.
Key metrics (as of Q3 2024) show an expense ratio of 0.12 % and a 12-month total return of roughly 8 %, driven largely by strong earnings from top holdings such as UnitedHealth Group, Johnson & Johnson, and Pfizer. The sector’s growth is underpinned by macro drivers like an aging population, rising Medicare/Medicaid spending, and sustained biotech R&D pipelines, which together contribute to a long-term revenue expansion rate estimated at 5-6 % annually for the broader health-care industry.
