Biotech Stocks To Keep An Eye On – December 25th

Danaher, Abivax, and Vertex Pharmaceuticals are the three Biotech stocks to watch today, according to MarketBeat’s stock screener tool. Biotech stocks are shares of companies that research, develop, manufacture, or commercialize biological therapies, diagnostics, gene or cell technologies and related services. For investors they are typically high‑growth but high‑risk and volatile—prices hinge on clinical trial results, regulatory approvals, patent outcomes and scientific progress, often with long development timelines and binary news-driven moves. These companies had the highest dollar trading volume of any Biotech stocks within the last several days.
