Medical Services Companies Showing Strong Earnings
Healthcare has been one of the hottest sectors over the past year. This can be seen by looking at various ETFs such as iShares Dow Jones US Healthcare (IYH). This particular ETF has appreciated by approximately 35% over the past 52 weeks which is significantly higher than the 27% appreciation that the S&P Depository Receipts (SPY) has given investors. Now the healthcare sector is built up of many smaller industries and this article will focus on medical services companies which have produced strong quarterly results.
