Healthcare products are one of the most lucrative industries

The healthcare market is one of the largest in the world, comparing only to giant spheres such as the five trillion of food retail. Healthcare products alone are forecasted to reach a $3 trillion value by the end of 2015, which has rocketed investments in the sphere. Home healthcare, healthcare IT and Tele-health are amongst the most popular segments, responsible for the fast booming of the market.

The industry as a whole is very labor insensitive – it is responsible for a large portion of the PhD related work places and is accounting for large portions of R&D investments. There are several companies dominating the world market, which has made competition fierce. Differentiation is very easy to achieve, which has led to a lot of external financing for different projects connected with research and development.

Tenet Healthcare, as one of the largest companies on the scene experienced a lot of fluctuation in its share values. However, it almost never went below the 2013 benchmark of $43 and with the well performing growth rates of the industry the short term analysis of the company stock seems stable.
