Biotech Capital Compass Video Takeaways

Large-Cap Biotech Leads, Small/Mid-Caps Need a Spark

Here’s a quick rundown of our video takeaways—pulled from recent newsletters. Enjoy!

Biotech’s Split Story: Winners, Losers & What’s Next

Large-cap biotech remains strong, while SMID-caps struggle amid cautious sentiment. Biotech showed resilience during the Deepseek AI panic but remains sensitive to interest rate news.

Regeneron’s stock is down over 40% due to Eylea HD struggles, but a recovery is expected in 2H25. Gilead beat Q4 expectations, gaining 7.7%, though Q1 seasonality could test investor patience. AI-driven biotech names like Recursion and Schrödinger are outperforming, while broader SMID-cap sentiment remains weak.

Regulatory shifts, including the FDA’s withdrawal of diversity guidance and potential Medicare drug pricing revisions under Trump, could reshape the industry. M&A and IPO activity are picking up, signaling early signs of market recovery.
