Exelixis made a long-awaited trend line crossI've been waiting on this trend line cross in Exelixis for quite a while now. It's been getting lots of analyst upgrades, and the valuation has been looking better and better. I actually bought some of this in anticipation of the break yesterday, so I'm in the green today. Exelixis's valuation got a 99/100 score from S&P Capital IQ. It has an attractive P/E of 8. There was an insider sale by the senior vice president on October 10, which is a little worrying, but the stock held its price over the last few days, and this trend line breach means the stock should be bullish for the near future.

Things are looking up for Johnson & JohnsonJohnson & Johnson beat Wall Street's earnings expectations yesterday and raised its full-year guidance. The company has also been steadily settling opioid lawsuits, with another settlement rumored to be in the works soon. JNJ is rated highly undervalued by S&P Capital IQ, and its post-earnings run looks to be the slow, steady kind rather than a big spike. That's what I like to see. I've picked up a little JNJ and plan to ride it up to at least the 139.50 resistance level. I'm considering a long-term hold, although the political risk makes me cautious about this sector going into an election year.

KIN Bioscience- accumulate and play bounce into 2020 MACD RSI MAHello team, KIN has momentum going into 2020 - 1) biotech 2) biotech focused on pets and animals! 3) small cap - 330 million look for a double in a year or two or Aquisition. 4) chart hit a solid bottom in mid Nov 2019 with nice buying and selling action in a strong uptrend kissing and bouncing off the 20 day MA - also importantly this stock has spent very few days below 20 day MA in past couple months. Technically it seems MACD and RSI will fall slightly to flush out the stock around -2 or -3 % by/on this Friday 3 Jan 2020 and keeping an eye on these indicators - I would load up on the stock from -1 to -2.5 % so from like $8.41 to $8.33 on Friday and play the bounce for the first real week of 2020 when volume comes back into the market. This could be a nice entry point for a multi month trade if KIN takes off or trade it for a week and take a plus %10 with chance that small cap stock skyrockets 20+ with biotech momentum from FDA etc... I would give up on the trade if the MACD and RSI fall below those levels and fail to show a clear turnaround by like Wednesday of the following week. also a stop loss at $8.28. This looks like a nice gamble with roughly %3 max loss with upside of a highly probably +5% on bounce and a less probable 10% bounce and also a slight single digit chance the stock flexes for 20%+ as these well played biotech tend to do - especially lately cheeeeers - I will be buying Thursday and Friday of this week if the stock is down -1% or the MACD and RSI show a clear reversal with positive gains in stock - then just hop in and play the trade for a longer period of time with by and hold. Just sell the stock higher

Alexion Pharmaceuticals is outrageously undervaluedAfter noticing some call buying activity in Alexion Pharmaceuticals today, I gave the stock a look. Analysts like Alexion. It has an 8.8/10 analyst summary score and an average price target of about $146.50 (versus the current price of about $113). S&P Global Intelligence rates it 85/100 for quality and 87/100 for financial health. Its growth stability earns a score of 62/100, which is great for a pharmaceutical company. Alexion has a nice, diverse portfolio of products that gives it some resiliency against changes in the demand for any one particular drug. But the most attractive thing about Alexion stock is its valuation. The forward P/E of about 10 is very low for a stock with such extraordinary earnings growth. Analyst forecasts for Alexion's earnings have risen something like 25% over the last two years, but the share price has fallen over the same period. Moreover, Alexion has beaten estimates for every single one of the last 8 quarters. S&P Global Intelligence rates Alexion's valuation 97/100 (extremely undervalued)! Today's headline from DJ Realtime News is, "Elliott Looks Forward to Continuing Dialogue With Alexion in Effort to Close Gap Between Current Share Price and Fundamental Value." Go to YouTube and check out my "Wall Street Petting Zoo" video titled "How to Determine the Fair Value of a Stock." There I describe how to use the Zacks "Price and Consensus" chart to determine the fair value of a stock. By this standard, Alexion is conservatively worth $175 per share.

ABBV remains a strong investment even after its recent runAbbvie has been surging lately after a bullish trend line break, but it remains undervalued at the current price. The analyst summary score for Abbvie is 9.6/10, and the average analyst price target is $92 per share. Personally, I think Abbvie's strong earnings forecast and 5.5% dividend yield justifies $100 per share. Call volume in Abbvie is very bullish today after its cancer drug Imbruvica beat a rival cancer drug in a clinical trial.

XBI testing Resistance this upcoming week!TICKER: $XBI XBI will be testing daily resistance $97.00. The nasdaq biotech $IBB already broke its daily resistance so can XBI follow along? Again, dividend distribution was this week and it has an impact on the price. However, I would still be caution because the weeky RSI is pretty extended. RSI is @ 71ish and historic pullback RSI level is around 72. Weekly time frame is extremely extended and a break of the higher low every weekly candlestick pattern will be the first indication of consolidation. I am very interested in looking for a swing trade of LABD because of how extended the bulls are.

Buy the dip in SAVA based on strong Alzheimer's trial dataCassava Sciences (SAVA) just got some positive clinical trial data on their Alzheimer’s drug. The result caused one analyst firm to upgrade SAVA’s price target from $3.00 per share to $6.00 per share. SAVA’s got a 9.4/10 analyst summary score, with most analysts rating the stock a “buy.” I entered SAVA Friday morning at $2.16 per share. It’s already up almost 100% from its share price last month, but I think it could continue its run next week.
