(PPH) VanEck Pharmaceutical - Ratings and Ratios
Pharmaceuticals, Biotechnology, Large-Cap, US-Listed
Description: PPH VanEck Pharmaceutical October 23, 2025
The VanEck Pharmaceutical ETF (NASDAQ: PPH) is a non-diversified fund that must allocate at least 80 % of its assets to securities that track its benchmark index, which consists of U.S. exchange-listed pharmaceutical companies-including common stocks and depositary receipts from both domestic medium-cap firms and foreign issuers listed in the U.S.
Key sector drivers that can affect PPH’s performance include the U.S. FDA’s drug-approval pipeline (which averaged 45 approvals per year in 2023, a 12 % increase YoY) and the industry-wide rise in R&D spending, now exceeding $200 billion annually-a metric that often correlates with future earnings growth for pharma firms. As of the latest filing, PPH’s expense ratio stands at 0.45 % and its assets under management are roughly $300 million, giving investors a relatively low-cost, concentrated exposure to the pharma space.
