Wall Street's major indices are being propped up by strong performances in the financial and healthcare sectors. Goldman Sachs reported a significant earnings beat, with EPS of $17.01 versus $13.09 estimates, while UnitedHealth surged, helping the Dow climb nearly 300 points. This rotation away from growth and into value/defensive sectors suggests investors are seeking safety and yield in a volatile macro environment, supported by resilient US existing home sales data.
