The numbers are staggering. Over the next six years, the biotech market is expected to add an additional $593 billion in value – a 419% increase over the size of today's biotech market.
Growth like this is why Wall Street is rushing hand over foot to buy the most lucrative biotech stocks available. With thousands of biotech stocks on the market, identifying the best biotech stocks to buy is incredibly difficult.

We'd lived in two places in Connecticut and another in a Pittsburgh suburb – renting in all three places – when my folks finally were able to buy their first house, a redbrick colonial in a Steel City suburb known as Murrysville.
It was late 1967 – my Mom was expecting my youngest sister, Carol Ann – and we moved in just before the Christmas holidays.
Because the house was finished late in the year, the yard wasn't fully graded and seeded. So at the bottom of the stone driveway that snaked down from the street and wrapped around the back of the house to form a decent-sized parking pad was a decent-sized dirt pile.
To the seven-year-old mind, that dirt pile seemed to reach for the very clouds above.
The earthen pinnacle conjured images of Mt. Everest, which I'd read about in school. The dirt clogs that helped comprise its bulk were great for throwing at enemy neighbors. The soil-and-clay mound (and the muddy pool beside it) gave me a "Guns of Navarone-ish" backdrop for my olive-drab-plastic Marx Battleground tanks and army men – and a stage for reenacting the D-Day Invasion.
And when us kids wanted to trade places with those plastic soldiers – and "be" the combatants ourselves – that dirt hill served as the ultimate stage for rounds of "King of the Hill."
You know the game, of course. One person climbs to that peak – and tries to stay there by fending off the energetic shoves or aggressive yanks of those who would be king.
In the world of kid-dom, this was the ultimate kind of combat: The winner stood tall, ready to take on all comers; the loser endured an ignominious tumble to the bottom.
As memories go, this is a timely one to share with all of you.
And here's why: Today, at 4 p.m. EDT, barring an extraordinarily bearish slap from an unforeseen threat, U.S. investors will witness the crowning of a new "King of the Hill."
You see, by the time the market closes today, the current bull market will dethrone its predecessor – the 114-month 1990 to 2000 bull market – as the longest bull run of all time.
I'm really excited about what's coming next...

Back on June 21, I wrote to let you in on a fast-moving, high-profit stock – Dover Downs Gaming & Entertainment.
Folks who got the recommendation and bought in have had the chance to pocket more than 103% in gains over that time frame. That's likely just the start, given what's coming.
Now, the profits don't stem from a blazing-fast new microprocessor, destined for billions of smartphones. Dover hasn't cornered the market on e-commerce to give Amazon.com a run for its money. Nor has it inspired the Pentagon to fork over truckloads of money on some high-tech killer weapon.
No, Dover is riding high because of… gambling, pure and simple.
Recent changes to federal law have opened the floodgates on a sector where growth has previously been, for most intents and purposes, hemmed in.
Much like recent changes in state and local marijuana laws, gambling has sparked a modern-day "gold rush" of sorts, and there's no putting it back in the box.
Today, to build on our success with Dover, I'm going to recommend a play few other industry analysts are looking at – more upside for us, at a double-digit discount no less.
And then there's the inflation-beating income...
In this second installment of Chris' FANG+ Index analysis using his Best in Breed system, he'll take a look at the remaining three stocks – Alibaba, Tesla, and Twitter – to determine which is the best (and worst) of the bunch.
When the White House introduced its first wave of tariff policies in January, American manufacturers like Whirlpool Corp. expected these competitive trade policies to put them ahead of the game.
Following the White House's statement, Whirlpool announced it was hiring 200 full-time workers in Ohio in anticipation of increased product demand.
No matter your politics, the stakes of the November midterm election are high.
It's going to decide control of Congress, the direction of the nation, perhaps even the fate of Donald Trump's presidency.
That said, the No. 1 issue for voters isn't any of that. It's healthcare. Specifically, healthcare affordability.
Problem is, there's no easy answer to this issue
Given the nation's deep political divide on the Affordable Care Act, this would seem a terrible time to invest in healthcare. And overall, that's right.
But I believe you can make a bundle defying that sort of conventional wisdom.
That's why today I want to reveal a healthcare company that is actually addressing people's No. 1 issue by helping them reduce their healthcare costs.
And it's making its investors a ton of money by doing so. In fact, it's beaten the market by 1,440% over the last year.
But it's not done yet – healthcare consumers are going to need its services for years to come, no matter what happens to the ACA.
That's why I believe it will double in the next two years.

Big banks are the field generals of the U.S. economy, and this "rank" makes their insights extremely valuable for those looking to make a killing from the small soldiers known as community banks.
Here's Tim Melvin with the details...
I've just returned from an amazing trip to Scotland with my lovely, talented wife and two great friends. We stayed in a lovely little Strathspey village called Aberlour – population just 970.
The best part: The regional Highland Games were held there during our brief stay. I sent pictures to my Stealth Profits Trader readers – along with an update on some 62 and 93% gainers and other positions that are heading higher right now.
You might know these games date back more than 1,000 years, so they're packed with traditions, including bagpipe and drum corps competitions (majestic) and multiple dancing events (graceful). There are footraces and long jumps where men and women run and jump to the screaming encouragement of the local spectators.
But the great crowd-pleasing allure of the games lies in the strength events, competitions where mountain-sized men in kilts battle it out to see who can throw extremely large objects with the highest accuracy: Heavy stones, massive hammers, and telephone pole-sized logs all fly through the air.
Well, the strength events saw a "ringer" this year. He was a man from outside the region, who easily won the shot put, hammer throw, and heavy weight throws – for both distance and height.
This mammoth of a man was at least 75 pounds heavier than (and twice as thick as) any of the other competitors.
Because of this, it was easy and logical to assume that he would also win the most famous of Highland Game events – the caber toss.
If you've never seen one, "the caber" is a 19-foot, 6-inch tall log that weighs 175 pounds.
Contestants balance the caber vertically in their clasped hands with the narrower end down and then run forward. They finish by tossing the log end over end, hoping to get the smaller end to flip over the thicker end and – this is key – land in a 12 o'clock position in front of them.
The ringer, this he-man of a human being, was first up.
He easily balanced the caber, but as he started running, he lumbered and laboriously made his toss.
Oh, he "turned the caber" alright – he got the smaller end in his hand to rotate over the top of the larger end in the air – but the caber landed at about 10 o'clock.
He might not have realized it, but that cost him the points he needed to win the event. Here's what happened next.
A younger and leaner contestant took his mark. He had more trouble holding the monstrous log. But as he started his run, he was so much lighter on his feet – graceful, even.
After his smooth run, the smaller contestant had more control over his caber, and he made his toss with a nearly perfect 12 o'clock landing.
And so it was that the logical choice, the one that looked best on paper, didn't end up being the one that performed best in reality.
