Stocks To Watch For June 17

S&P 500 Futures are flirting with a rise above resistance at 2,900 on June 17. We can also see the futures are now trending higher, which is a positive.

Biotech (XBI)

Biotech stocks should get a shot in the arm on June 17 after it was announced that Pfizer would buy Array Biopharma. M&A has been something that has been missing from the biotech sector for some time and perhaps this news gets the sector moving higher. The XBI is flirting with resistance this morning at $82.90.

Broadcom (AVGO)

Kind of strangely, or not, Broadcom which fell sharply on Friday is still higher than where it was on June 3 and is well off its Friday lows. I think AVGO fills the gap back to $280. Perhaps with AVGO trading at 11 times next’s years earnings estimates all of the bad news has already been priced into the stock.

Starbucks (SBUX)

It is amazing to me how investors worry so much about what impacts of a trade war will have on Apple and China iPhone sales, but when it comes to SBUX, nobody cares? I guess the China consumer is willing to give up its iPhone, but not it’s coffee? Strange.
