Thanks guys, I see what happened now--I must have deleted my old "gene" watch list, and had started a new one with the competitors to Orchid or Sangamo--and I never got around to recovering my old symbols. Well, "genomics" certainly led the way today, Gizzmo, Curagen, Sequenom up ~20%. I have another watch list--"NextWave Biotech" stole it off some website. Ooooh, nice--Alkermes up 28% today to $37 5/8ths...though still in post crash territory trading where it did back in January and far below the high near $100. A few genome biotechs lagged today--I noticed Incyte, Gene Logic and Axys all down a tad. I see an article on TheStreet that has a few value fund managers crowing, OAT etc, yeah, whatever turns you on. My own YTD performance is well below 400% now--and going nowhere fast now that I'm more diversified across the sector, but I still cant bring myself to put more bran in my diet. Checked in on my bioportfolio, somehow Neurogen got in there--must have been reading one of Rick's threads and swapped Corixa or something else for it. Anyway, the list I gave for the stocks I own isn't up to date either--for instance that cist.ob was bought out, so I can drop that one and should get my Celltech any day. And Tularik must have got swapped for more of one of my pennies recently. Still, not a bad list I think.
