Q: Hello, can you please provide your opinion of IXJ and whether you think it is a buy at its current price.

Also, if there is a different US healthcare ETF that you think is better please provide advise why and what you think a good entry price is.

Thanks as always for the advice.

Q: Which would YOU add if choosing? Any other to consider? My current health sector holdings are WELL, IBB, IHI. Past forays into healthcare have been disasters, e.g. ltc reits, medical cannabis and GUD. So quite cautious.
