Healthcare Trade Ideas

20 September, 2017

As discussed in Biotechnology: Where the Promise of Life Meets the Reality of Markets, our preference is for a core and satellite approach as opposed to taking concentrated positions in a handful of stocks.

In this case, $IBB and $XPH form our core and will receive 60% of our healthcare allocation. With the remaining 40% allocated to the satellites comprised of the following stocks:

  1. Regeneron Pharmaceuticals $REGN – highest conviction idea
  2. Bristol-Myers Squibb $BMY
  3. Biogen Inc $BIIB
  4. Perrigo Co $PRGO
  5. Alexion Pharmaceuticals $ALXN
  6. Cerner Corporation $CERN – lowest conviction idea
