On Friday, Health care stocks were narrowly mixed Friday’s afternoon with the NYSE Health Care Sector Index slipping about 0.2% and shares of health care companies in the S&P 500 rising about 0.1% as a group.
Among Healthcare stocks, Shares of Pfizer Inc. (NYSE:PFE), lost -0.55% to $34.18, during its Friday’s trade.
Pfizer Inc., a biopharmaceutical company, discovers, develops, manufactures, and sells healthcare products worldwide. The company operates through Global Innovative Pharmaceutical (GIP); Global Vaccines, Oncology and Consumer Healthcare (VOC); and Global Established Pharmaceutical (GEP) segments.

S&P Dow Jones Indices will make the following changes to the S&P 100, S&P 500, S&P MidCap 400 and S&P SmallCap 600 indices:
S&P 500 constituent The Priceline Group Inc. (PCLN) will replace Baxter International Inc. (BAX) in the S&P 100, Baxalta Inc. (NYSE:BXLTwi) will replace QEP Resources Inc. (QEP) in the S&P 500, QEP Resources will replace Itron Inc. (ITRI) in the S&P MidCap 400, and Itron will replace Arch Coal Inc. (ACI) in the S&P SmallCap 600 after the close of trading on Tuesday, June 30. Baxter International is spinning off Baxalta in a transaction predictable to be accomplished on that date. Baxter International will remain in the S&P 500 following the distribution, but its post spin market capitalization will no longer make it appropriate for the S&P 100. QEP Resources, Itron and Arch Coal are all ranked near or at the bottom of their current indices.
