Top Biotech Companies To Own For 2014

BALTIMORE (Stockpickr) -- The health care sector got a shot in the arm yesterday, buoyed by big M&A deals at a half dozen multi-billion drug stocks.

>>2 Big Biotech Stocks to Trade (or Not)

Not that it needed it. Health care names have rallied 4.7% since the calendar flipped to January, stomping the 1.69% gains that the rest of the S&P 500 have barely eked out. Big hedge funds have actually been positioned really well to take advantage of that upside too: Funds picked up stocks from the health care sector more than any other industry group last quarter.

Thing is, none of their biggest conviction health care buys were the ones that made the headlines yesterday.

Advisors' Opinion:

• [By RichardCox]

  For those willing to take on some added volatility (and potential for increased risk based on less diversification), investors can look at Receptos Inc. (RCPT), to play this year's momentum in IPO entries. Enhanced expectations for the company's IPO drove the company to raise its initial share offering to 5.2 million shares. Receptos has reached late-stage development for its oral treatment for multiple sclerosis (MS). MS treatments are dominated by industry heavyweights but MS pills are expected to surge in the next few years because oral treatments are becoming more efficient than injected therapies, and can cater to a broader consumer base. Being a new company, the Receptos chart only offers limited incite, and will not be included here.

  Receptos (RCPT) is a biopharmaceutical company engaged in discovering, developing and commercializing therapeutics for immune disorders. This stock closed up 5% at $23.19 in Monday's trading session.

  Monday's Volume: 69,000
  
  Three-Month Average Volume: 55,356

  From a technical perspective, RCPT ripped higher here right above some key near-term support at $21 with decent upside volume. This move is quickly pushing shares of RCPT within range of triggering a major breakout trade. That trade will hit if RCPT manages to take out its all-time high at $25 with high volume.

  Traders should now look for long-biased trades in RCPT as long as it's trending above support at $21 and then once it sustains a move or close above its all-time high at $25 with volume that's near or above 55,356 shares. If that breakout hits soon, then RCPT will set up to enter new all-time-high territory, which is bullish technical price action. Some possible upside targets off that breakout are $30 to $35.

Advisors' Opinion:

• [By Sean Williams]

  Kyprolis won't have a completely clear path to success in spite of its rapid sales ascent due to the accelerated approval of Celgene's (NASDAQ: CELG  ) Pomalyst in February. Kyprolis delivered a slightly better median duration of response at 7.8 months versus 7.4 months, yet Pomalyst combined with a low-dose dexamethasone produced a higher overall response rate of 29.2% as compared to 23% for Kyprolis. I feel that the multiple myeloma market is certainly big enough, and in need of any help it can get, that both drugs will be accommodated.

  When investors think of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma stocks, big names like Gilead Sciences, Inc. (NASDAQ:GILD) and Celgene Corporation (NASDAQ:CELG) come to mind. Both GILD and CELG are making prolific progress in the war on NHL, and both are fine, well-positioned companies. It's little Infinity Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ:INFI) that may end up making the proverbial quantum leap in the non-Hodgkin's lymphoma stocks arena, however, and better still, it's INFI shares that may well end up doling out a much bigger reward than Gilead or Celgene could to newcomers.
