Allan Tong’s Discover Picks IHI's MER is actually higher (at 0.39%) than the yield it pays (0.3%). Like the other names here, IHI trades at a low beta, 0.86 to be precise. So, if you're not buying this for income, what's the growth? Let's look at IHI's largest holdings. TMO offers diversity among lab testing, lab equipment and diagnostics and typically trades at a premium multiple. TMO was a hit in the Covid-testing days, but that stereotype has stuck with them. The company reported a strong quarter a month ago, but that didn't move the needle. TMO shares have been choppy but rangebound all year, but if Wall Street gets gospel on TMO, share should pop. The price target is 20% higher at $674. Read 3 Best U.S. Healthcare ETFs for our full analysis.

BUY
Not overly bullish on healthcare as a whole, as its growth may be less attractive. Likes medical devices, with a built-in backlog due to Covid. He owns SYK. There should be a significant pickup in procedures over the next 2 years. SYK has strong earnings growth, near a 1-year high. Also look at IHI, the medical devices ETF, packed with companies leading the healthcare sector.

BUY
It specializes in medical devices and equipment. He has held this over a year and a half. He likes the diversification it offers. He is not sure which of the holdings are involved in manufacturing defibrillators.

A perennial favorite for him. Worldwide hospital spending, global spending and Type II diabetes on the rise all make this a good holding. It is fairly high beta, so if the market falls this will fall too. Yield 0.31%

TOP PICK
The only area of healthcare he remains invested in. The demographics are creating tailwinds. An aging population and growing obesity is good for this. Good cash flow holdings and good diversification. Yield 0.32%

PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jul 11/18, Up 19%) A great example of demographic and diabetes trends that has created huge growth in demand. A sad, but profitable story. Not a defensive stock and has beta with the market.

The devices’ space has great secular trends and market demand. There is more uptick in emerging markets. Fundamentally there are a lot of tailwinds. As an example, the cardio device market is projected to grow 20% a year through 2020. It is more defensive and is not as subjective to a policy shift.
