Vermilion Macro Vision: Health Care Sector Synopsis

Health Care Sector: Overweight. Health Care took up residency four weeks ago at the top of our relative strength rankings, and has yet to budge. Widespread top-down and bottom-up improvements are visible, ranging from breakouts in biotechs to continued strength in medical devices. It's for these reasons that we upgraded the Sector three weeks ago to overweight from market weight.

Internally, leadership is widespread. Over two-thirds of our Health Care Groups are ranked in the top-third of our database (i.e. RSR “1-10”). Several actionable Groups: biotechs (BIIB, CELG, INCY, REGN, VRTX), Health Care Equipment (RMD, TLGT), Diagnostics (FMS, LH), Drug Delivery (CTLT, PODD), and Life Science Instruments (STE, BRKR).
