Ironically, services and technology are intricately strung together by Stockfetcher while, at the same time, it treats technology and energy as odd couples sharing the same bed. Nevertheless, you can still iron out the needless bug by simply adding the extra clause stating that you don't want the energy sector be included in the search. However, since you can't just write "sector is NOT energy" (as it should be IMHO), you would need to go about in a long-winded approach as in the above example.

Fetcher[
set{My_Sector1, count(SECTOR is SERVICES,1) + count(SECTOR is TECHNOLOGY,1)}
set{My_Sector, My_Sector1 - count(SECTOR is ENERGY,1)}
My_Sector above 0
add column sector
]

Can someone tell me why this works for Services but not for Medical sector?

set{Nonsector, count(SECTOR is Services,1)}
set{Anything_But, 1 - Nonsector}
Anything_But is above 0
add column sector

set{Nonsector, count(SECTOR is Medical,1)}
set{Anything_But, 1 - Nonsector}
Anything_But is above 0
add column sector

Old thread but unfortunately simplest way seems to be just create filter that lists all you want to include.

Not "Medical"
Fetcher[
/* All except Medical sector*/
apply to sector(Aerospace, Auto-Tires-Trucks, Basic Materials, Business Services, Computer And Technology, Conglomerates, Construction, Consumer Discretionary, Consumer Staples, Finance, Industrial Products, Oils-Energy, Retail-Wholesale, Transportation, Utilities)
and add column sector
]

There is a business services sector and a
technology services industry, so not sure
which you want, or both.
