And this week the biotech bubble managed to grow considerably larger without my personal contribution, as I was away for a bit of brief R&R in Big Sur. At Friday’s close, the Contest median was up 36.81% YTD (vs. up 30.80% YTD a week ago), while the Nasdaq Biotech Index was up 40.99% (vs. up 32.83% YTD a week ago) and the Nasdaq Composite Index was up 19.23% YTD (vs. up 15.23% YTD a week ago). BLADE’s portfolio continued to amaze, holding on to the Contest lead with a wondrous 97.97% YTD gain. Just a smidgen behind, FILO’s portfolio, finished the week up 96.99% YTD, while RKRW’s portfolio, up 94.51% YTD, held on to third place. At Friday's close, all 39 Contest portfolios remained in the black with 17 of the 39 beating the NBI. Below is the Top Ten list. Also below are the Top 5 & Bottom 5 Stocks ranked by % Gained and % Lost for the week. Portfolio adjustments: None Have a safe & fun summer weekend biotechies!
