11/29/2019 Contest update
Despite an early week surge by the sector, there was little haggling over prices by Black Friday biotech shoppers. Whether investor purchases were astute remains to be seen.
At Friday’s close, the Contest median was up 29.59% YTD (vs. up 19.10% a week ago), the Nasdaq Biotech Index (NBI) was up 23.37% YTD (vs. up 18.97% a week ago) and the smaller-cap S&P Biotechnology Select Industry Index (SPSIBI) was up 29.76% YTD (vs. up 22.20% a week ago), while the Nasdaq Composite Index (NCI) was up 30.60% YTD (vs. up 28.40% YTD a week ago).
Contest leader, HOOD’s portfolio, continued its spectacular run and is now up a stupendous 205.06% YTD! Propelled by a CCXI multi-bagger, BLADE’s portfolio, up 88.61% YTD, vaulted to second place and DEWO’s portfolio, up 82.84% YTD, held on to third place.
At Friday's close, 33 of the 39 Contest portfolios were in the green, while 23 were now beating the NBI and 19 were now beating the SPSIBI.
