Biotech stocks are shares of companies that use biological processes—such as genetic engineering, cell culture or molecular biology—to develop new drugs, diagnostics, agricultural products and other life-science innovations. These firms typically invest heavily in research and development and depend on clinical-trial outcomes, patent approvals and regulatory milestones, making their share prices potentially volatile. Investors buy biotech stocks to gain exposure to cutting-edge healthcare advances but should be prepared for higher risk and longer development timelines.
