With AI and space dominating many of the market’s most popular investment themes, it can be difficult to find differentiated opportunities. Healthcare is often viewed as one of the more defensive sectors, supported by relatively steady demand regardless of the economic environment.

That combination of defensive characteristics and long-term innovation can make healthcare ETFs an attractive way to diversify a portfolio without giving up growth potential.
