The Most Hated Sector Is Rallying — Is Biotech Back?

Biotech stocks were left for dead — written off after years of brutal bear markets, failed trials, rising rates, and policy shocks. But what if the sector is quietly waking up? On this episode of In the Money with Amber Kanwar, Amber sits down with Eden Rahim, Portfolio Manager at Next Edge Capital, to unpack why one of the market’s most volatile and misunderstood sectors may be entering a new bull cycle. Eden walks us through biotech’s “nuclear winter” — from the 2011–2015 boom, to rolling bear markets, to the post-COVID hangover that crushed even former darlings like Moderna. He explains why extreme capitulation readings — with companies trading below net cash and only 1% of stocks above their 50-day moving average — signaled a generational bottom. And since April, biotech has quietly been outperforming the S&P 500… without the headlines.
