…you have only identified 1 biotech stock for your current portfolio.

I presume you’re referring to MNTA; however, there are several other biotechs among the 19 stocks listed in the My Stocks section of my iHub portfolio:

• ABT makes the world’s biggest-selling biopharmaceutical (Humira). How is it not a biotech?

• PFE sells Enbrel and Prevnar/Prevnar 13, two of the world’s premiere biologics franchises. How is it not a biotech?

• NVS may have more commercially successful first-in-class drugs than any other company. How is it not a biotech?

• AGN makes Botox, which is not only a blockbuster, but also the world’s most versatile biologic. How is it not a biotech?

• MON is the world’s leading supplier of genetically-modified seeds. How is it not a biotech?

• PKI is the world’s leading vendor of neonatal tests for genetic diseases and is also in the business of banking cord blood. How is it not a biotech?

In short, your definition of biotech is evidently narrower than mine. Regards, Dew
