Eli Lilly (LLY) is a standout component, contributing significantly to XLV's valuation, but the ETF remains appealing even when backing out LLY's high P/E ratio. XLV offers diversified exposure across various healthcare industries, with significant holdings in large-cap stocks like UnitedHealth Group (UNH), Johnson & Johnson (JNJ), and Merck (MRK).

XLV: Fundamentals Don't Support Overweighting Health Care
Seeking Alpha27 March 2024 Sentiment: NEGATIVE

XLV tracks the 64 Health Care stocks in the S&P 500 Index. Its expense ratio is 0.10% and the ETF has over $40 billion in assets under management. With a 12% weighting in the S&P 500 Index, Health Care is already well-represented in most portfolios. Attractive fundamentals should support a buy rating, but that's not the case today. Except for Eli Lilly and a handful of others, XLV lacks the growth potential to support its excessive valuation, which rivals SPY on forward earnings and trailing cash flow.
