Biotech Index Surges 30% Year-to-Date as Market Rally Accelerates

Jul 2, 2026·read at STAT ↗Positive

Mid-year data show the biotech sector continuing a strong rally that began in April 2025.

The XBI index, the most-watched biotech gauge, rose 19% in June and is up about 30% for the year, trading near a five-year high of $158.

The surge reflects heightened investor enthusiasm for biotech companies, even as the market approaches the February 2021 peak of $175.

The analysis appears in Adam Feuerstein’s STAT+ newsletter, which is available to subscribers.
