...although a "solid Biotech stock" can mean different things. It is a little tricky for the less serious investor to choose between leverage with a vision, and a scientifically solid biotech, that might just flounder. finance.yahoo.com Not to mention the difference between vison and delusion! (Was gene therapy a delusion all along?) It may be as simple as microcaps are more volatile--or more likely, you actually have to have a sense for the drugs/molecules that are likely to win or lose. (But then Rigel, whack!) And does it matter--if you trade out before they fail? And can you just ride a biotech cycle and throw some darts--which works every few years too. I am still trying to wrap my little brain around the trick to this. Could it be greater effort, a clear unmuddled mind and intelligence finds better stocks-- and also makes better trades. Gasp!
