In the spreadsheet above I have tracked the 2026 earnings estimates for the Healthcare Sector ETF (XLV) top 30 weighted stocks.
The column under the date 12/1/2025 has a letter that represents the movement in 2026 earnings estimates since the most recent print (10/2/2025). “U” means 2026 estimates are UP in the last 60 days. “D” means 2026 estimates are DOWN in the last 60 days. “S” means 2026 estimates have remained the SAME in the last 60 days. The column entitled “1yr Target Est” is the Wall Street consensus 12 month price target for each stock.
What this table is telling us is that estimates are relatively flat. More estimates came UP for 2026 in the past 60 days than went DOWN – The Up:Down ratio was 19:10. The rest remained the same.
The cumulative 2026 earnings power of these 30 stocks was revised DOWN by -0.36% in the past 60 days.
