Biotechnology equities are slumping to start 2021, with the S&P Biotechnology Select Industry Index down 10% year-to-date.
Mergers and acquisitions activity, which are typically vibrant in the biotech space, are also in a funk. Yet many experts believe biotech consolidation is poised to pick up the pace in the second half of 2021. If that happens, the
SBIO components have market values of $200 million to $5 billion at the time of inclusion in the fund.
