Man, we're in trouble now ... "August 06, 1999 09:30 Fund Manager Sees Drug Approvals Increasing, Is Bullish On The Biotech Sector Jump to first matched term DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug. 6, 1999--Even though the biotech area has been through an eight-year bear market Michael Murphy, mutual fund manager and editor of California Technology Stock Letter, sees a light at the end of the tunnel. He notes that there were 13 biotech drug approvals by the FDA in 1996, 27 in 1997, 52 in 1998, and predicts that there should be around 80 new biotech drugs approved by the FDA this year in the U.S. Murphy thinks that the new drug approvals will increase interest in the biotech area, and in companies in that sector. In a recent interview he discusses advances in technology, industry developments, and mentions the following companies: Cephalon (Nasdaq:CEPH), Cor Therapeutics (Nasdaq:CORR), Isis Pharmaceuticals (Nasdaq:ISIP), Ligand Pharmaceuticals (Nasdaq:LGND) and Xoma (Nasdaq:XOMA).
