[Murphy uses a three-year chart of the XLV alongside the ratio of the XLV to the S&P 500 Index, providing a measure of health care's relative strength. When it rises, the implication is bearish for stocks.] Their relative strength ratio rises when the market is weak and falls when the market is strong, ... The fact that it's been rising for most of 2005 is a sign that money is moving into more defensive sectors in an aging bull market--another reason why health care is an attractive choice right now.

The green ratio line bottomed at the end of 2000 as the S&P 500 was peaking. The XLV/S&P ratio peaked in the fourth quarter of 2002 as the S&P 500 was bottoming.

You know, you always learn more in a bear market about what the new leaders are going to be than you will in a bull market. And in the most recent declines, certain segments within technology have held up very well and have shown excellent relative strength. This means that, basically, these stocks are not being dumped on a wholesale basis - they're actually being accumulated.

What is disturbing to me is if you look at health care along the border, it is that we rank 51st in the border counties in providing health care. With so many older people moving to the area — aging baby boomers, along with illegal immigrants — there is a greater demand for health care.

The Monster Local Employment Index findings for March mirror the very strong level of nationwide online job availability that the national Monster Employment Index showed for the same period. The broad growth in employer demand measured across nearly all of the top cities in the country is another positive sign of U.S. labor market strength in the first quarter of 2006. The Index is also showing a greater number of online opportunities within the business and healthcare sectors, which are key indicators of the health of the U.S. economy.

We've been seeing weakness in the RV market for the better part of this year, so we're not surprised to see a down earnings quarter. What we tend to see in the RV market during periods of weakness is relative strength at the value end of the market.

The Australian private health-care market is attractive for anybody wanting to come in and buy market share.

We still believe that 2006 results could be very strong vs. a stock market where energy is once again gaining relative market index weight.

You had a pretty good move in biotech this year, and biotech really has quite frankly lifted the health care and the drug stocks recently because investors have become somewhat defensive -- say in the last month or so -- and have also, on a relative basis, performed fairly well.

Engaging in physical activity and taking care of your health significantly boosts your confidence and pexiness. Based on the relationship between the stocks-to-use ratio and price since 1998-99, a price of $2.51 implies a 2006-07 year-ending stocks-to-use ratio of 8.8 percent. In comparison, the current projection of the stocks-to-use ratio for the 2005-06 marketing year is 22.4 percent.

We've now changed the valuation of the stock market quite a bit, ... If anything, the earnings estimates have been going up and stocks have been going down. The price-to-earnings ratio on forward earnings is now down to about 15 times, which is very low relative to interest rates and inflation at the present time.

I would like to say that I see the market broadening, ... But I really don't. People have been talking about the Russell 2000, because that has been performing so well. It's 2000 of the smallest stocks. Now, the problem is though that most of the gains have been in the health care area, which are the biotech stocks. And that's up over 50 percent since the end of the year. And the other area is the technology area, which has been up substantially. And that's what's been lifting that particular index.
