ETF Chart of the Day: Biotechnology Breakthroughs | Page 2 of 2 | ETF Trends

Clearly, investing in individual Biotech names involved in FDA Phase II or Phase III trials is not a new concept for portfolio managers and even retail investors, but it can often be somewhat of a crapshoot and expose the investor to a high degree of specific individual security risk given the historical volatility exhibited by such names and the potential for failure during the aforementioned trials. At the moment we see the following names weighted the heaviest in the index, with none of these stocks being household names: 1) GEVA (6.83%), 2) BLUE (5.48%), 3) SGEN (4.62%), 4) RCPT (4.42%), and 5) AKRX (4.28%).
