Stock Market 2008: Healthcare Sector in Focus

Health care, healthcare or health-care, any way you slice it... the bulls are registering PROFIT in the sector for 2008. In fact, over the last month they have been one of the only consistent gainers in the entire market! I got some great movers that have traded up and subsequently gotten hit and are now undervalued. Value and defense is how we trade the market in 2008... so a big dog who has a favorable year in store should get the call as well.

Solars are risky after explosive growth in 2007. If you must be the last man standing, then so be it. I am not saying I wouldn't invest in solar, I am saying that A. this is a review of the healthcare sector... not green technology and solar stuff. B. The future of solar companies is extremely uncertain and the volatility in the stocks offers a reason to play away from the risk.

Haha, thanks Guru. I was a bit thrown off by the complaint that I didn't mention solars in a post about healthcare!

Solars are high risk and really aren't much of an investment strategy after a run up in 2007. This is a sector glance, and I have information on every sector on my website theNetFool.com ;)

I disagree, I think with the rising crude prices and our ever-growing dependence on foreign oil, you are going to see a big move to all "green" energy alternatives. We are finally at a point where it makes sense to pursue these other technologies, before it was too expensive.

Forget healthcare. Solars
