Really likes it. Breaking out to new highs. He'd be a buyer. Next upside resistance is around the $400 level.
He's been talking to their US sales team about biotech and healthcare in general. If they're correct on the broader market call, then biotech should outperform some of the more defensive areas in healthcare into 2027.
Beaten up a bit, as has the whole space by the Trump administration. Chart shows fantastic trend. Came off a bit, but finding its legs at the lower part of the channel. Hint: on a down day, what goes down less than the market is usually (not always) where the action might come from first.
These guys look at the hard diseases with unmet needs. Executes really well. Fantastic pipeline, and that's what the drug companies are all about. The most money is made buy sitting on your hands; once you take your initial position, just sit back, and in 10 years, you'll be a happy investor. Yield is 3.23%.
He likes it and likes the space. He likes the bio-based companies. He owns CELG-Q. He cannot say anything too negative about AMGN-Q. It is trading at about 12 times earnings so good value, 7% cash flow yield and they are expanding their portfolio. There is good runway for them.
