After Alexion (ALXN) named Biogen (BIIB) CFO Paul Clancy as its new CFO, Morgan Stanley analyst Matthew Harrison calls Clancy "a highly credible choice." Harrison thinks that the appointment of Clancy should ease investors' fears about the "stability" of the company's Soliris drug. The analyst adds that the CEO's forecast for "double digit growth," along with Clancy's appointment, should boost the stock today. He keeps a $138 price target and Overweight rating on the shares.
