Healthcare Sector Having Pleasant Days
Healthcare companies have performed relatively well during the past few weeks among the other S&P 500 companies. Health Care Select Sector SPDR, which is a representative of the array of healthcare stocks, has increased by 3.4% during a period consisting of the last one week. Market observers are of the view that investor interest is rebuilding in once considered a “defensive sector” on the shares trading front. As for the future, healthcare stocks are in an excellent place as fundamentals are looking solid for them.
AGRX Product Development
AGRX has slipped more than 90% since LAST year, largely owing to its constant battles with the FDA regarding the development of its contraceptive “Twirla”. However, recently, Agile has won the battle and got approval from FDA. With that, the company began to increase the commercialization portfolio of the product. This in turn could lead to excellent results for Agile in terms of sales and revenue generation during upcoming quarters.
Final Remarks
AGRX shares are in a cheap position at the moment. Hence, investors could attain high returns if they prefer to invest in the stock now, especially with the stock price expected to go up in wake of increased sales of Twirla.
