MYGN and LYNX should grab your biggest attention. After genomics databases sweep the world, proteomics should be the next hot area. The former has the best R&D, latter has a cool patent. I will be very surprised to see anything less than a 5 bagger.

UHTR, TTP are hot biopharmaceutical companies. Nice products = hot return.

GERN can be a contender. If they can the US patent and has someone who is as experienced with PR as J. Venter (the dude in CRA), you have a 20 bagger in hand. sure there are lots of shorts who are betting against the issue. Don't put all your $$$ in it though.

MLNM is a decent issue and worth taking a long look. A great CEO who fully understands the importance of bioinformatics.

GENE logic, GENE are trash companies and will be cut by at least 70% in the next two years. INCY has better product pipeline than CRA and has most of the DNAs patented. CRA will have a huge problem generating $$$ to offset its lofty valuations in the future, not to mention a fight against NIH who is pissed off at the whole situation. Their best bet is to become a bioinformatics company but they need to get rid of 75% of their employees who spent 3 months learning computer language and routinely run the same PERL script day in and day out. Curagen has gone a bit too far. AFFX has low quality R&D but their patents should prevent the issue from crashing down to earth.

The third wave should see those several bioinformatics software companies who support R&D in the area going up 5-10 fold. That will happen after proteometics hot waves goes in full swing.

However, if biotech loses momentum, all the bets are off. But since 99% of the fools have not jumped onto ship yet, I am betting a banner year from this sector.
