Are biotech stocks influenced by the swings of the broad mar

[xandra]

Hi,

Like for example.......a biotech stocks trading at $35/share expecting a big FDA decision in 5 months.............but before that decision happens, there's no big news coming out....
So it's 5 months of inactivity basically...........

Let's say, during the 5 months, the s and p 500 goes up 10 percent.......

Does that mean the biotech stock will go up a lot too?

Or does it function completely independent from the broad market and just remain at $35/share regardless of what the s & p 500 is doing?

Thanks
