(Updated on Apr 19, 2024)
The VANGUARD HEALTH CARE INDEX FUND SHARES ETF price gained 0.198% on the last trading day (Friday, 19th Apr 2024), rising from $252.83 to $253.33. During the last trading day the ETF fluctuated 0.725% from a day low at $252.45 to a day high of $254.28. The price has fallen in 7 of the last 10 days and is down by -3.45% for this period.

The ETF is at the lower part of a horizontal trend in the short term, and normally this may pose a good buying opportunity, though a breakdown through the bottom trend line at $252.84 will give a strong sell signal and a trend shift may be expected. Given the current horizontal trend, you can expect VANGUARD HEALTH CARE INDEX FUND SHARES ETF with a 90% probability to be traded between $253.41 and $271.30 at the end of this 3-month period. A break of a horizontal trend is often followed by a large increase in the volume, and ETFS seldom manage to go directly from the bottom of a trend up to the top. ETFS turning up in the middle of a horizontal trend are therefore considered to be potential runners.
