There’s no doubt the past couple weeks have been a little scary for investors with market volatility causing massive swings in the market causing some investors to run for the hills. While caution is warranted in times like these, it is worth noting that the Biotech industry is minimally affected by China’s economy and the beleaguered commodities complex (except for oil recently). The effect is even less noteworthywith smaller companies whose survival hinges on early-stage clinical trial results.
