Alright Chowder. I'll try to post them all today. The biggest challenge is the formatting issues when posting tables to SI (it messes up units). So, I have to post them as snapshots/graphics rather than text, which takes manual effort and time. Tier 1 is the Leadership Tier. Other Tiers are Core and Watchlist which I'm not posting now, but can provide them later if asked for. This is across the entire SP500.

Healthcare:

Leadership Tier

Criteria: Strong dividend growth ($\ge 5\%$), Investment Grade Credit (BBB- or higher), and Valuation sanity (P/E < 30).




*Cigna's growth figure reflects structural re-basing of the dividend policy.

Mandatory Data-Existence Audit (DSM v3.2)The following audit issues were identified during the processing of the Health Care sector:

  • Valuation Cap: Eli Lilly (LLY) is moved to Core despite elite growth and credit because its P/E (45.72x) exceeds the 30x Leadership threshold.

  • Non-Payers: A significant portion of the sector (e.g., Boston Scientific, Biogen, Vertex) remains on the Watchlist due to a lack of dividend yield/growth data.

  • Credit Watch: Viatris (VTRS) and Perrigo (PRGO) are relegated to the Watchlist due to sub-investment grade (High Yield) credit ratings.
