Things people are saying about the pharmaceutical industry, some favorable for SEPR, some not:

Salomon Smith Barney also cut the pharmaceutical sector from an over-weight to a market-weight due to slowing earnings growth for the sector (versus rebounding earnings growth for the S&P), potential healthcare reform, weak new product pipelines and a number of big products going off patent in the near future.

<As has often been stated on this thread SEPR's patented ICEs should be a plus in that environment>

From Amgen investor conference:
Management made an interesting quote - This is the best time to in-license products as biotechs have many products in clinical development and are unable to gain financing (thus the biotechs are forced to license away their valuable products).

<Was SEPR "forced" to license Zytec in Europe for "peanuts"?>
