Healthcare ETFs, or Exchange-Traded Funds, are investment funds that are traded on stock exchanges and focus primarily on the healthcare sector. These ETFs pool capital from multiple investors to purchase shares in a diversified portfolio of healthcare-related assets, including stocks of pharmaceutical companies, biotechnology firms, medical device manufacturers, and healthcare providers.
The goal of healthcare ETFs is to provide investors with exposure to the performance of the healthcare industry, allowing them to invest in a broad array of companies within this sector without needing to buy individual stocks. This diversification can help mitigate the risks associated with investing in single companies.

Investors typically use these ETFs to take advantage of trends in healthcare spending, technological advancements, and demographic changes that affect the demand for healthcare services and products.
