Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 71

Revolution Medicines, Inc. (NASDAQ:RVMD) is one of the stocks Jim Cramer talked about, along with market froth. Cramer highlighted that there is a takeover interest in the company, as he commented:

Of the 32 stocks that made our froth list, seven of them were biotechs, and four of them have more than doubled. Some of these moves are easy to understand. There’s Revolution Medicines. It’s up nearly 46% after reportedly drawing takeover interest from… Merck… That could be a winner. Others have had strong clinical trial results. I like that. But again, biotech is not a good leadership group. This is a boom and bust business where gains can disappear just as quickly as they materialize. At that JPMorgan Healthcare conference I went to… I got a feeling that all sorts of biotechs were raising money here and rallying to pretty incredible valuations, often based on nothing more than a press release. That’s froth.

Revolution Medicines, Inc. (NASDAQ:RVMD) is a clinical-stage oncology company developing targeted therapies for RAS-driven cancers. RAS refers to a family of genes that produce proteins controlling cell growth and division.
