Shares have formed a bullish "cup and handle" and higher share prices are expected for this stock. Note that the bullish formation is the result of company's JAKAFI's main competitor, a drug under development by Gilead (GILD) failed a Phase 3 study for previously untreated myelofibrosis patients in November. That means Incute's JAKAFI will not have any competition for the next few years. Incyte raised its full-year net sales outlook on JAKAFI to $850 million-$855 million from an earlier outlook of $825 million-$835 million. Higher share prices for INCY are expected.
