I wonder what biotech sell-off you guys are talking about.

Amex Biotech Index (^BTK) was up 1.21% today to a new annual high close, having rallied 80% since Aug 31. The Nasdaq Biotech Index was up .3%. There is considerable enthusiasm for the sector from Sangstat's approval yesterday, Immunex' continuing run, and broadly reported advances in gene therapy, to name a few hot items. IMNX was up $10 today, and was not even in the top 25 biotech percentage gainers.

Where was the sell-off?
