Kate Austin: Here at Adviser Investments, we really like the health care sector for a number of reasons, even though it’s come under some pressure this year.

And by that we really mean that the world’s populations are living longer and getting not only more, but also better access to health care. We’re also getting a growing middle class globally, and there will be more available dollars to spend on health care. Both of these long-term trends bode very well for the health care sector, domestically and abroad.
