The article doesn't seem to be available
in the WSJ Online--it might not be online
at all.

Anyway, it simply pointed out that biotech
returns August to year end are far ahead
of the first part of the year. Damned if
I can find my print copy, doesn't seem to
be in our recycle bin--I'm thinking that
I wrapped a pile of dungeness crab guts
with it.

Let's see if I remember correctly, and I
probably don't: I think the article said
that over the past ten years owning biotech
August to year end gave something on the order
of +20%, while owning for the first part of
the year gave -4%. If I find the article wanna
bet I'm not even close on that, ha.

I'll keep looking.
