Sign InThe healthcare sector experienced a tactical shift in early 2026, as the Direxion Daily Healthcare Bull 3X ETF (CURE) declined due to profit-taking. Despite this correction, an expected increase in Medicare Advantage payment rates for 2027 has emerged as a potential fundamental catalyst for the industry. Analysts forecast significant gains for CURE's top holdings, suggesting a rotation opportunity from the XLV ETF into CURE.
