The chart of IBB on the left reflects a 4-year rising support line was broken and kissed as resistance at the red arrow above.

XBI on the other had, remains well inside of a 4-year rising channel.

Joe Friday just the facts….These Biotech ETF’s are not built the same and the leading performer of the two, remains inside of this rising channel. Would become concerned for this sector and the broad markets if XBI breaks below support!
