    Below is a summary of sector performance for the week of August 10-14th. Healthcare was the best performer, and given some of the weekend news developments with the potential 'watering-down' of the healthcare initiative, we could continue to see outperformance in that sector. The best performing stock (with a $1 minimum share price) is also listed for each sector.
