This is the highest the index has been since March 2015. Investors who may be keeping an eye on these positive trends may want to know more about investing in stocks from the US service sector.  

In this story, we'll take a factual look at the US services sector, popular stocks, past performance, and how Indian investors can buy US stocks using Cube Wealth for as low as $1.

What Is The Services Sector In The US?

In simple words, the services sector contains companies that provide a service like communication services, financial services, health care services, and more. These companies do not produce tangible goods or extract raw materials.

The US is widely regarded as the world's first service economy. The service sector contributes approximately 80% of the USA’s GDP while employing roughly the same percentage of employees.  

The IT industry contributes the lion's share of revenue to the US services sector. This is pretty much the same case in India as well.
