In recent months, diabetes stocks have retreated sharply, partly due to the increased popularity of the weight-loss drug Semaglutide. Some have contended that Semaglutide will greatly reduce the number of people suffering from diabetes in America. But, I believe that this thesis is misguided for three reasons. First, the drug only reduces patients’ weight by 15%-20% . Even after losing that amount of weight, a high percentage of Americans will still be meaningful overweight and obese, rendering them vulnerable to diabetes. Secondly, the drug is administered through an injection once a week and loses its effectiveness after patients stop taking it. And the drug can result in some significant, negative side effects. This increases the chances that patients will stop taking it after a relatively short amount of time. Given these points, I believe that investors should buy these three diabetes stocks while they are in a downturn.

As of September 19, S&P 500 healthcare stocks were down 3.2% for the year. Of the 11 sectors, its year to date ( YTD ) performance is the second worst only behind utilities. Over the past decade, the Health Care Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSEARCA: XLV ) has fared better, averaging an annualized return of 12.23%, putting it in third spot. However, the tech-heavy index has a weighting of 27.13% , or double that of healthcare. The XLV trails the SPDR S&P 500 ETF Trust (NYSEARCA: SPY ) by 48 basis points.
