Exelixis - Chart of the Day

Exelixis (EXEL) is the Barchart Chart of the Day.  The biomedical company has a Trend Spotter buy signal, a Weighted Alpha of 140.20+ and gained 179.17% in the last 6 months.


The Chart of the Day belongs to Exelixis (EXEL).  I found the biomedical stock by using Barchart to sort the Russell 3000 Index stocks first by the highest Weighted Alpha then again by technical buy signals of 80% or more.  Since the Trend Spotter signaled a buy on 4/6 the stock gained 155.38%.

Exelixis, Inc. is a biopharmaceutical company committed to developing small molecule therapies for the treatment of cancer. Exelixis is focusing its development and commercialization efforts primarily on COMETRIQ' (cabozantinib), its wholly-owned inhibitor of multiple receptor tyrosine kinases. Another Exelixis-discovered compound, cobimetinib, a selective inhibitor of MEK, is being evaluated by Roche and Genentech (a member of the Roche Group) in a broad development program under a collaboration with Exelixis.
