PEB and CRA are tracking stocks that represent the components of PE Corporation. PKI is what used to be known as EG&G. EG&G bought the Perkin Elmer name as well as some assets/products from the old Perkin Elmer.

PEB represents the portion of PE Corp that builds sequencers and sells reagents used in those sequencers. They've got an 80 or 85% market share of the sequencing business, so they stand to do well regardless. They won't move up as fast as some of the other biotechs, but PEB is the company that sells the tools that the prospectors use to find gold.

Also take a look at QGENF and SMMX for tool/reagent/etc. suppliers.
