Biotech Stock Boom

It has been frustrating recently to know what direction the stock market will really take.  We have had a number of 200 point plus and minus days on the Dow.  So, it is difficult to invest in a market where you don't have any confidence in its direction for the next day, next week, or next month.

Zacks wrote a very good article at Seeking Alpha about profitable investing in biotech stocks which have been going up in spite of stock market gyrations.  I already own BIB which was one of the stocks that Zacks mentioned.  A second ETF that they suggested was XBI, and I plan to buy it Monday morning.  The third stock that they recommended was BBC, and it is on my watchlist.  I believe that biotech stocks will continue to outperform the market because everyone will need healing drugs at some point in his or her lifetime.
