Jerry Lewis MDA and Labor Day. This is a new ETF which only came out a couple of months ago and has had a small pull back. Sept. is good for biotech and this is a narrowly-focused health care ETF, HealthShares Autoimmune-Inflammation (NYSE: HHA - News). Autoimmune Disease is when your own body attacks itself and MDA has focused some of their research on this. MDA is focused on Muscular dystrophy (MD) refers to a group of more than 30 inherited diseases that cause muscle weakness and muscle loss. Some forms of MD appear in infancy or childhood, while others may not appear until middle age or later. The different muscular dystrophies vary in who they affect and the symptoms. All forms of MD grow worse as the person's muscles get weaker. Most people with MD eventually lose the ability to walk. There is no cure for muscular dystrophy. Treatments include physical and speech therapy, orthopedic devices, surgery and medications. Some people with muscular dystrophy have mild cases that worsen slowly. Others cases are disabling and severe.
