Capturing Steady Consumer Spending on Health Care with XLV

Select Sector SPDR

One pocket of sector investing that can be easily overlooked is the health care sector, which is typically at the top or near the top of consumer spending and increases year over year. This was amplified during the pandemic. But even post-pandemic, health care continues to be a driver of the U.S. economy and deserves a presence in a diversified portfolio, especially when considering our aging population and shifting demographics. Representing a large portion of the U.S. economy, the health care industry provides essential care, prescriptions, and services that many lives depend on. Given the increasing demand driven by an aging population, investing in this sector can offer substantial opportunities. The Health Care Select Sector SPDR Fund (XLV) offers access to this valuable part of the economy that touches all. XLV tracks health care stocks from within the S&P 500 Index, weighted by market cap. The ETF offers broad exposure to core companies in the U.S. health care industry. The fund’s top 10 holdings* represent over 50% of the fund. UnitedHealth Group is the largest holding at 9.38%, followed by Johnson & Johnson (8.66%), Eli Lilly (7.12%), Merck (5.38%), AbbVie (5.25%), Thermo Fisher Scientific (4.21%), Pfizer (4.05%), Abbott Labs (3.85%), Danaher (3.37%), and Bristol-Myers Squibb (2.60%). Oldest Health Care ETF on Market Launched in 1998, XLV is the oldest health care ETF in the segment and continues to be a go-to tool for advisors and investors. The ETF is used widely for strategic or tactical positions, depending on the portfolio and investor. With more than $40 billion in assets under management and a low expense ratio of 0.10%**, XLV is actively traded with millions of shares exchanged daily. Since XLV is cap-weighted and selects only from the S&P 500, it tilts heavily toward more stable mega-caps. This open-ended fund tracks the Health Care Select Sector Index. But what XLV really does is offer easy access to the top names in the industry, including pharmaceuticals, health care equipment and supplies, health care providers and services, biotechnology, life sciences tools and services, and health care technology industries. And packaged in the exchange-traded fund wrapper, XLV offers a diversified approach to investing in the health care sector. For exposure to the U.S. health care market and the consumer spending behind it, XLV opens the door for advisors and investors of all sizes.

BNB Chain Partners with PLANET on its Mission of Blockchain for Environmental Good

PLANET

Binance-created BNB Chain, one of the most popular blockchains in the crypto space, has announced its partnership with PLANET, the blockchain for good platform directing the power of celebrities, fandom, and technology towards a sustainable future as envisioned by the United Nations' 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). BNB Chain announced the partnership from its official Twitter/X account and sees PLANET become an ecosystem partner to the BNB Chain. While details of the partnership are being released bit by bit, insiders expect broad-based cooperation across PLANET's ecosystem of utilities. PLANET has announced celebrity-backed Real World Assets (RWAs) - rare collectibles that will be made available for sale to PLANET's global communities. These RWAs are an essential part of PLANET's roadmap of carving out a sustainable $100 million annual revenue protocol as it disrupts the $300 billion green tech industry, and it is expected they might be made available on the BNB Chain. PLANET is also releasing digital Mystery Boxes with random attributes - with some carrying these extremely collectible RWAs - presenting another possible area of collaboration. The partnership with BNB Chain builds on a slew of recent announcements from PLANET. The wave began on July 6th, 2023, when football superstar Lionel Messi tweeted an animated video stating that he was working on something. The 33-second video showed the Greatest of All Time (GOAT) footballer kicking away a can labeled pollution. Internet sleuths found an unexpected clue - what seems to be PLANET's logo and an invitation to Join the PLANET on a billboard in the background as Messi walks through a city. This led to speculation that Messi is one of the first celebrities PLANET is partnering with on environmental causes. The momentum continued when Messi's new football team, Inter Miami CF, shared the video from their official Twitter/X account on July 24th, 2023, which renewed excitement about the possibility that the team had joined PLANET's sustainability cause. The Certik-audited $PLANET token has recently been listed on the top-tier Centralized Exchange (CEX) Bybit. It is also listed on other popular exchanges like Gate.io, MEXC, BitMart, and Poloniex. Fair-launched on the Ethereum blockchain's Uniswap DEX on May 30th, 2023, $PLANET has bridged to the BNB Smart Chain and is available on Pancake Swap- where it has recently won a popular vote to be included in a Pancake Swap staking pool and farm. About PLANET PLANET is an ecosystem harnessing the power of the blockchain to address pressing social and sustainability challenges, paving the way for a more transparent and sustainable future. PLANET has unveiled its mission towards global good as outlined by 17 United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. These goals address pressing social, economic, and environmental challenges facing our world to promote sustainable development holistically. PLANET is using the power of celebrity and fandom to mobilize the world to address global challenges, with the world's biggest celebrities backing sustainability projects dear to them through the platform. PLANET wants to move the sustainability space from short-term funding to viable long-term revenue streams that can power campaigns for a better future.

August's Must-Watch Cryptos: Don't Overlook Chainlink, Solana, Tradecurve

Total Media

In this article, we'll be taking a closer look at three cryptocurrencies that are poised for big moves in August: Tradecurve (TCRV), Chainlink (LINK), and Solana (SOL). Of these bullish tokens, Tradecurve is leading the way with a 150% presale pump that has investors itching to get their hands on it. Let's start here first. >>Register For The Tradecurve Presale<< Pioneering Accessibility: Tradecurve (TCRV) vs. Huobi (HT) and Binance (BNB) The likes of Huobi (HT) and Binance (BNB) offer a platform for people to buy and trade digital currencies. However, the strenuous process of meeting KYC/AML requirements can make them less accessible to many potential users. In response to these challenges, Tradecurve has emerged with an innovative hybrid trading platform that removes the need for such procedures. With Tradecurve, anyone can start trading by simply using their email address to sign up, making a crypto deposit, and then diving into forex, commodities, stocks, and cryptocurrencies. One striking feature of Tradecurve is the enhanced control it provides to users over their funds and private keys, a stark contrast to traditional centralized exchanges. This means that traders don't need to entrust their funds or private data to third parties. The TCRV token is the platform's utility token, which rewards users for their activity on the platform. Simply lock the TCRV tokens on the platform to receive passive income, higher trading leverage, quicker level-up bonuses, and 20% to 80% trading fee discounts. The TCRV token is available for purchase at just $0.025 during the fifth phase of the ongoing Tradecurve presale. Although the token has already appreciated by 150% since the presale began, industry analysts suggest this is merely the tip of the iceberg. In fact, bullish analysts forecast that the TCRV token could reach over $1.00 once it is listed on major tier-1 exchanges. This means now is the time to lock in a position and get ready for an explosive moonshot. Chainlink (LINK): A Trusted Name in Decentralized Oracle Solutions Chainlink (LINK) has garnered considerable attention for its unique oracle services, resulting in its price skyrocketing from roughly $2.25 to over $50 during the 2020/21 bull run. This surge was predominantly driven by the increasing traction of decentralized finance (DeFi) and the consequent demand for Chainlink (LINK)'s oracle solutions. Recently, Chainlink (LINK) took a significant stride forward by launching its Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP) for early access users on several blockchains, including Ethereum and Polygon. Developed to catalyze the creation of cross-chain applications and services, Swift plans to leverage Chainlink (LINK)'s new protocol to establish connections with these various blockchain networks. Given these advancements, industry analysts predict that Chainlink (LINK) has the potential to finally surpass the robust resistance level of $10. If Chainlink (LINK) can sustain this upward trajectory, it may reach unprecedented heights this year. Some even venture that Chainlink (LINK) could potentially rise to $100 before 2025. Solana (SOL): A High-Throughput Blockchain Platform After weathering a storm of unfavorable news and incidents in the past year, Solana (SOL) is gradually recovering and regaining its appeal among traders and investors who recognize Solana (SOL)'s potential. DeFi 2.0 is here, and Ethereum isn't yet up to the task. As a result, Solana (SOL) is rapidly becoming one of the most attractive alternatives for developers looking to build DeFi 2.0 applications, such as Hxro Network and Crema. Examining Solana (SOL)'s price trajectory from a technical viewpoint reveals an optimistic scenario. Solana (SOL) recently breached a Symmetrical Triangle pattern, triggering a price surge from $18.70 to $32 within a span of nine days. Though the Solana (SOL) price has since retraced to the $25 support level, analysts suggest this could present a prime buying opportunity. The next Solana (SOL) price targets to monitor are $40 and $80. A bullish market trend could push Solana (SOL) towards testing these levels, although its performance will be limited until Bitcoin (BTC) decides on a direction.

Trust & Will Completes First eWill in Minnesota with State Senator Bonnie Westlin

Trust & Will

Trust & Will, the leading digital estate planning and settlement platform in the U.S., completed the first electronic will (eWill) in Minnesota in collaboration with State Senator Bonnie Westlin to kick off National Make-A-Will Month. Using the trustandwill.com platform and an electronic signing with a mobile notary and Minnesota resident Mark Fleming, Notary Public at Nationwide Apostille Services LLC (Veteran-Owned), Senator Westlin completed the first eWill on August 1, 2023, creating the state's first end-to-end-digital-estate plan. To make creating and executing a will more convenient and affordable for all Minnesotans, Senator Westlin ushered the Uniform Electronic Wills Act through the legislature. The bill passed both the House and Senate unanimously and was signed into law by Governor Tim Walz on March 30, 2023. "The Uniform Electronic Wills Act will streamline the estate planning process by leveraging technology to make it easier for people to prepare and execute their wills,” said Senator Westlin. “I’m proud to be chief author of this bill and to see it pass with full bipartisan support.” Minnesota is the 13th jurisdiction to pass eWill legislation, following Nevada, Indiana, Arizona, Florida, Utah, Colorado, Illinois, Maryland, North Dakota, Idaho, Washington, and the District of Columbia. Several other states are introducing eWill legislation in the coming months, as less than one-third of Americans have a will. Trust & Will has long been a committed advocate for making electronic wills legally valid nationwide as a part of their mission to make the generational transfer of wealth more accessible, cost-effective, and efficient to all. “Electronic wills remove several barriers inherent in traditional estate planning,” said Cody Barbo, Founder and CEO at Trust & Will. “Every family should have access to justice and legal technology to make their lives easier. Estate planning, a vital element of ensuring the next generation's well-being, should be accessible to everyone.” With the help of a variety of policymakers, Trust & Will has been working to promote the adoption of legislation governing electronic estate plans, including the Uniform Law Commission’s Uniform Electronic Estate Planning Documents Act, as well as educating the public about the benefits of electronic estate planning. To learn more about eWills and receive updates, visit: trustandwill.com/electronic-wills.
