Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly We again reiterate this long known developer of treatment for cystic fibrosis as a TOP PICK. Its diversified portfolio of therapeutic drugs continues to pursue treatment in other major diseases such as Type I diabetes and muscular dystrophy. Recently reported earnings beat analyst expectations by 30% and the company maintains a ROE of 31%. We also like how the company has continued to increase cash reserves, while buying back stock. We recommend trailing up the stop (from $185) to $200, looking to achieve $258 -- upside potential over 16%. Yield 0% (Analysts’ price target is $257.41)

Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly VRTX is a previous Top Pick that had two setbacks that caused us to recommend moving to the sidelines. However, its diversified portfolio of therapeutic drugs continues to play a leading role in the potential treatment of cystic fibrosis worldwide. It trades at 17x earning compared to peers at 43x. It has been adding cash reserves that are now estimated to exceed $8 billion. We would buy this with a stop loss at $165, looking to achieve $275 -- upside over 46%. Yield 0% (Analysts’ price target is $275.86)
