Wall Street Fundamentals Releases New In-Depth Stock Reports on CLSN, MNKD, NKTR and VPHM

The biotech industry’s surge in 2013 seems to have cooled in recent weeks as the sector has been hit by a broad slump in the markets. The SPDR S&P Biotech ETF (NYSEARCA:XBI - News) and the iShares NASDAQ Biotechnology Index ETF (NASDAQ:IBB - News) have posted declines of 3.65 and 4.04 percent in the past week. Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke’s comments hinting that bond purchases may be scaled back later this year sent markets sliding sharply this past week. Although it may not have a major effect on the Biotech sector in the long run it has made investors more susceptible to news triggering them to take gains or cut losses.
