For as much as the sell-side seems to complain about Amgen (Nasdaq:AMGN), it doesn't seem to have resulted in the company missing out on the run-up in biotech and pharma names over the last 12 to 18 months. With uncertain risk from biosimilars and a pipeline that strikes many investors as lackluster, Amgen isn't the easiest name to like today, and the risk of the company overpaying for Onyx Pharmaceuticals (Nasdaq:ONXX) doesn't help. On balance, it's difficult to work up a lot of enthusiasm for Amgen at this price, but key clinical data in early 2014 could add some solid support to the stock.
