As I have accumulated what to me look like very cheap third tier biotech stocks, I've also been trying to put together a shopping list of issues which are, perhaps, a little less risky if not quite cheap as the micros I own.
I thought I'd share that list with the thread, and if anybody sees something that he does not feel is "cheap", speak up. I'd like to have the list refined by the time the market cracks later this year, so I can buy a few of these to add to my microcaps.
As far as any technique I use to value these, well my method is this: I read everything I see on the biotech threads, all the PR which comes out from a company, I check out recap for the trials and then...if months go by and the symbol keeps popping back in my head, I add it to my list. I think the advantage of this system is that it uses both logic and intuition, heheh.
Alexion, ALXN Axys, AXPH Chiron, CHIR Enzon, ENZN Incyte, INCY Millennium, MLNM Regeneron, REGN Sepracor, SEPR Vertex, VRTX
Most of these have marketcaps between 100M and 1B, except for Sepracor and Chiron, which I suppose are first tier...but you have to like their valuations too. No Amgen and Biogen for me, too rich! |
