The Week Ahead: Healthcare Earnings

TedTed
in Fund Discussions
FYI: Healthcare companies on a seven-year tear have been top performers so far in 2015, helping to push broad stock indexes to record levels, but traders are now looking to protect themselves from a selloff as they await major earnings reports in the sector.
Companies reporting first-quarter earnings next week include Bristol-Meyers Squibb Co, Boston Scientific Corp , Merck & Co, Pfizer Inc, Gilead Sciences Inc and Celgene Corp.
Regards,
Ted

    Hi Ted!
    With so much in healthcare, one really hopes things go well. I have added a 5th healthcare fund to the mix a while back, TMFSX, mainly for its short positions.

    Oups, probably you mean TMSFX:) It seems to be quite volatile...

    Quite right. Silly me. One needs a little color in life, i.e., live wildly, spend some mad money from time to time.

    Long GILD, CELG, plus THQ, HQL, ABT and PRHSX.
  • TedTed
    @MFO Members: Along with Scott, long FBTCX & PRHSX.
    Regatds,

    Don't plan on reducing exposure, have FBTIX, PHSZX and PJP, all in IRAs, so long term holds.
