BMO Capital Markets Initiates Coverage of Bluebird Bio (BLUE) $160 Target !

Interesting.
 Based on this analysis" We believe that BLUE has established the broadest clinical proof-of-concept in the gene therapy space, with its proprietary lentivirus vector platform and phase 1/2 program in beta-thalassemia and phase 2/3 program in childhood cerebral adrenoleukodystrophy. With full economics retained for its key lead programs, we believe that benefit in transfusion independence seen in beta-thalassemia could translate into a $1.2 billion commercial opportunity following pivotal data and that benefit in stabilization of disease progression in CCALD, while representing a smaller $280 million peak opportunity, provides additional validation for its gene therapy platform.”

501 Canal Street, please take note.
