With new therapeutics under FDA review for migraine, Alzheimer’s disease and seizures, and several rare disease gene therapies in development, stocks included in BioWorld’s Neurological Diseases Index are tracking 6.09% ahead for the year.
For the first time since February, the BioWorld Biopharmaceutical Index (BBI) took a sharp plummet with shares falling in the last few weeks for 18 of the 22 stock components.
While 2020 is certainly a hard year to beat, 2021 has so far recorded a respectable amount of biopharma deals and is on track to exceed every other year.
