It's hard to believe we're already in March! The start of 2024 has been an exciting time for the sector. In Q4 of last year, talk of investor confidence returning to the sector became more frequent, especially around the time of the Jefferies conference. This momentum continued into January of 2024 at J.P. Morgan. The question on everyone's minds was when the impact of this confidence would be felt. At Compass Executives, we've experienced this firsthand with an increasing number of new mandates and clients beginning to plan their next growth phases. I believe this is due to three key reasons: 1) Acquisitions from big pharma have given investors significant ROI, and an opportunity to recycle funds back into the sector. 🔬 2) Public markets trending positively, with the S&P Biotech ETF (XBI) reaching its highest price in almost 2 years. 💲 [see image!] 3) A rebound of IPOs in 2024, and an expectation that interest rates will fall as the year progresses. 💻 Here's to more positive news and a great year ahead! 😀
