Cerus (CERS) is up over 60% since April 1

Today's Financial News - Posted April 21, 2009

Biotech Cerus has seen its share price scale the resistance wall to reach a 61% increase this month. What’s the savvy investor to do at this point?

by Laura Cadden, TodaysFinancialNews.com

Baltimore (TFN): If you acted on our Jan. 12 recommendation to buy Cerus Corporation (NASDAQ:CERS) in our report Four Biotechs Set to Soar, you are sitting on gains of over 20%.

The lucky folks who came in later when the stock was truly battered, are sitting on much higher gains.

The company’s technology is primarily focused on its INTERCEPT System which destroys pathogens of all types in donated blood components.

With the increased use of plasma and platelets, as well as the limited availability of donated blood, it is more essential than ever to make those components safe.

I think Cerus has a great future, but I don’t want to lose these gains…

I recommend you put in place a 20% stop-loss. If you got in at our initial price of $0.87, that would mean you sell your shares if the price drops back to $1.04.
