Why are analysts so bullish? Let’s take a closer look at these three stocks now.
1. Alnylam Pharma (Nasdaq: ALNY)
Welcome to the best-rated trending stock of the last 30 days. Nine analysts have published Buy ratings on Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, Inc. in the last week. That’s with an average price target of $167.75- indicating over 80% upside potential.
Alnylam Pharma is developing novel RNAi-based therapies to treat a wide range of debilitating diseases. This includes TTR amyloid disease- a rare and potentially fatal protein buildup.
Five-star Madhu Kumar (Profile & Recommendations) has just reiterated his ALNY Buy rating, $210 price target, and Alnylam’s status as an Out-the-Gate 2018 stock pick. He recommends the stock ahead of crunch-date August 11. This is when the FDA will either approve or reject ALNY’s lead asset Onpattro.
“We continue to have conviction that ALNY’s transthyretin (TTR) RNAi franchise should dominate the landscape of hereditary TTR amyloidosis (hATTR), with the August 11, 2018, PDUFA date for lead asset Onpattro potentially serving as a positive catalyst for ALNY shares.”
