Marc Chaikin, founder of Chaikin Analytics, says two forces - AI disruption and fracturing global trade - are triggering a historic wealth transfer already underway in 2026. Household names like Intuit (-57%), Boston Scientific (-49%), and Tractor Supply (-40%) are cratering, while lesser-known companies like Sandisk (+573%) and Rackspace (+444%) surge. Chaikin has identified specific stocks he believes investors should sell before they fall further - and the names may surprise you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Biotech stocks represent shares of companies in the biotechnology sector, which focuses on using biological processes, organisms, or systems to develop products that improve health, fight diseases, and benefit the environment. This sector includes companies that work on drug development, genetic research, biologically derived materials, and more. Due to the innovative and often breakthrough nature of their work, biotech stocks are known for their volatility but also for their potential to offer substantial returns.

Prominent players in the biotech sector include large, well-established companies such as Amgen, Gilead Sciences, and Biogen, which have multiple products on the market and solid research pipelines. Younger companies like Moderna and Regeneron are also notable, especially for their roles in developing treatments and vaccines at an accelerated pace in response to global health crises. These companies represent a mix of stable investments and high-growth potentials within the biotech industry.

While biotech exists in other areas, the majority of the biotech stocks are in the medical and agricultural sectors. Investors might choose individual stocks of companies they believe have potential based on their pipelines or existing products. However, due to the high risk associated with the biotech sector, many opt to diversify their exposure through biotech ETFs or mutual funds, which include a range of companies from startups to established leaders. This strategy can mitigate some of the risks while allowing investors to benefit from the sector's overall growth.

Before investing in biotech stocks, consider the unique risks of this sector, including high development costs, regulatory hurdles, and the binary nature of clinical trial results, which can dramatically affect a company's stock price. Investors should be prepared for volatility and have a tolerance for risk. It is also crucial to research and understand the specific focus areas of biotech companies, as these can vary widely from medical devices and pharmaceuticals to agricultural and environmental biotechnologies. Consulting with a financial advisor who understands the biotech sector can provide valuable insights and guidance tailored to your financial goals.
