Boom and Bust: Tech Soars While Health Care Falters

In this week’s Making Sense with Ed Butowsky, I take a closer look at how the S&P 500 performed in May. While the index posted a strong return, the drivers behind it tell a more nuanced story:

📈 Utilities led sector performance, contributing the most to the index’s gain
💻Technology and consumer discretionary sectors also showed notable strength
⚕️Health care struggled, with several high-profile names pulling the index down

These shifts highlight why I continue to emphasize thoughtful diversification and the importance of looking beyond headlines to understand what truly drives market returns.
