If some or all of the health law is struck down, the big winners would be managed-care companies and medical-information companies. Hospital operators would probably be losers.
Health care stocks were the best-performing sector of the stock market the past week and the sector was a source of strength in a difficult quarter.
In comparison, the S&P 500 is off 5.2% so far this quarter while the Healthcare Select SPDR exchange-traded fund is only off 0.52%, and is the third-best among the 10 S&P 500 sectors.
