Advisors' Opinion:

• [By Geoff Gannon]

  But if you can definitely hold a company through a tough market that lasts a few years ��then you can look for a wonderful business to buy and hold at any time. In any market. I found some lovely businesses around the time of the 2000 market peak. They just weren�� big caps, dot coms, etc. They were smaller more mundane businesses. In at least one case ��Bio-Reference Labs (BRLI) ��I made some money (it seemed like a scary big amount at the time) holding the stock for about 2 years but I would��e made a whole lot more if I had just held that one stock through till today. And even now BRLI seems a fine stock to keep holding. So, you see I could��e saved myself a lot of trouble by holding something for more than 10 years. And it wouldn�� have hurt my performance at all. In fact, BRLI has beaten the market by a lot for a very long time. And, yes, the price I paid for BRLI happens to be the most I ever paid for a stock relative to its record earnings. So, I paid a very high price ��for a value investor like me ��for a stock that promptly went on to return around 20% a year for the next 10 years and is now back at almost the exact same P/E ratio where I first bought it.

Advisors' Opinion:

• [By Keith Speights]

  Biotech stocks are highly volatile. A good example of this is Spectrum Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: SPPI  ) . Spectrum rode a wave of generic leucovorin shortages in late 2010 and early 2011 to stock gains of more than 170%. Shares then plunged more than 30% from July through September 2011. But the ride wasn't over yet.

• [By James E. Brumley]

  Eight months ago, Spectrum Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (NASDAQ:SPPI) was a train wreck. Shares had plunged from $12.43 to $7.79 on the heels of bad news, and SPPI wouldn't stop bleeding until it hit a low of $6.92 a few days after the big selloff. That bad news? A warning that its full-year sales (and particularly sales of its cancer drug Fusilev) would be well short of expectations.

• [By Keith Speights]

  Another prime case study for this comes from Spectrum Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: SPPI  ) . Spectrum's stock more than doubled from October 2011 through July 2012. However, shares plunged 55% from those highs because business dynamics changed since then. A shortage of a generic rival to Spectrum's lead drug Fusilev was alleviated, resulting in sales slowing down considerably.�

Advisors' Opinion:

• [By Sean Williams]

  However, both branded and generic Lovenox may cede market share in time to Johnson & Johnson's (NYSE: JNJ  ) Xarelto, which is taken orally instead of injected, and is primed to treat DVT and P/E for high-risk patients, as well as a preventative measure for those who've had hip or knee replacement surgery. Sales of the drug have absolutely taken off, rising 266% in 2012, and I suspect with Lovenox now completely off patent, this next-generation all-in-one drug could see sales romp even higher. More importantly, it means improved patient care for the some 900,000 persons with hospital-acquired VTE each year.

  The most advanced second-generation hepatitis C drugs, Johnson & Johnson's (NYSE: JNJ  ) simeprevir and Gilead Sciences' (NASDAQ: GILD  ) sofosbuvir, are already being reviewed for approval by the FDA. They both should be approved by the end of the year.

• [By Dan Caplinger]

  One interesting opportunity for Abbott could come from a possible purchase of Johnson & Johnson's (NYSE: JNJ  ) Ortho Clinical Diagnostics division. With J&J looking to cash in on an Ortho sale that could bring in $5 billion, Abbott could boost its own diagnostics emphasis and also improve its cash flow by getting in on a deal. Yet some investors are concerned about whether J&J wants more for Ortho than Abbott should pay, especially as the division's revenue has been flat lately. A buy could also help Abbott keep rivals Siemens and Roche at bay.
