Investors Need to Adopt a Different Mindset for Big Pharma and Biotech Stocks
The ability to sell new drugs hinges on approvals from government bodies such as the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). As a result, biotech companies, and to some degree, large drug companies, go into business ventures without the certainty of ever earning revenues, let alone profits.

Market Realist•3 days agoWhy Exelixis Stock Fell Last Week
On May 11, Exelixis’s (EXEL) closing price was $19.55, almost 12.9% lower than its closing price on May 4.
