Does this make you wonder?

The company (Immunex) has risen to prominence in the biotechnology
industry largely on the outstanding success of its new Enbrel breakthrough for rheumatoid arthritis. Sales should surpass $380 million this year, as the well-tolerated injectable drug finds greater acceptance in treating chronic inflammatory diseases that affect some 2.5 million in the U.S. Recent clinical data have demonstrated Enbrel's effectiveness in treating early-stage rheumatoid arthritis, which is a potentially much larger market. New studies also indicate that Enbrel may be beneficial in treating congestive heart failure. Enbrel eventually is expected to become a multi-billion dallar drug that generates significant products. The R&D pipeline also includes new treatments for multiple sclerosis, asthma, cancer, AIDS, and other ailments. The shares have speculative appeal for aggressive investors.
