Perhaps the most exciting new treatment to hit the market in years was recently approved by the FDA. Developed by GlaxoSmithKline (NYSE: GSK ) and Theravance (NASDAQ: THRX ) , Breo Ellipta is a dry powder drug delivered by inhaler and meant to provide long-term relief of air-flow obstruction and reduce COPD exacerbations. The two companies are collaborating on a handful of potentially revolutionary new COPD treatments that combine Theravance's long-acting beta-2 agonists with Glaxo's long-acting muscarinic antagonists. Its next treatment, Breo Anoro, is currently under review by the FDA.

First up is $4 billion biopharmaceutical firm Theravance (THRX). It's been one heck of a year already for THRX's shareholders. Since the calendar flipped over to January, shares of the firm have rallied more than 75%. But the setup forming in shares points to even higher ground for the final quarter of 2013.
That's because Theravance is currently forming an ascending triangle pattern, a bullish setup that's formed by a horizontal resistance level above shares at $42 and uptrending support to the downside. Basically, as Theravance bounces in between those two technical levels, it's getting squeezed closer and closer to a breakout above that $42 resistance level. When that happens, traders have a buy signal.
Whenever you're looking at any technical price pattern, it's critical to think in terms of those buyers and sellers. Ascending triangles and other pattern names are a good quick way to explain what's going on in a stock, but they're not the reason it's tradable. Instead, it all comes down to supply and demand for shares.
That $42 is a price where there has been an excess of supply of shares; in other words, it's a place where sellers have been more eager to step in and take gains than buyers have been to buy. That's what makes a breakout above it so significant -- the move means that buyers are finally strong enough to absorb all of the excess supply above that price level.
Don't be early on this trade.

Finally, Theravance (NASDAQ: THRX ) made waves after announcing that it would be splitting its business into two separate components: Royalty Management, which will focus on drugs currently in the pipeline in collaboration with GlaxoSmithKline, and Theravance BioPharma, which will continue its line of small-molecule rare disease research. Clearly, this gives investors more visibility of where revenue and profit are coming from, but I think it gives Glaxo even more reason to gobble up the Royalty Management segment because now it doesn't have to buy the remaining pipeline of rare disease research.

A revolutionary COPD treatment?
On Wednesday, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or COPD, treatment collaborators GlaxoSmithKline (NYSE: GSK ) and Theravance (NASDAQ: THRX ) are set to go before the FDA's panel with their combo Breo Ellipta. This revolutionary drug combines Theravance's long-acting beta-2 agonists with Glaxo's long-acting muscarinic antagonists into a dry powder inhaler to provide long-term COPD relief.

In addition, unlike incredibly expensive medical robots from the likes of�MAKO Surgical� (NASDAQ: MAKO ) and�Intuitive Surgical� (NASDAQ: ISRG ) -- the costs for which can easily run into the seven-figure range -- iRobot's RP-VITA was to be available through a leasing model for a very reasonable $4,000 to $6,000 per month.

What's more, what goes for Intuitive Surgical likely goes double for MAKO Surgical (NASDAQ: MAKO ) , a robotic surgical device maker for orthopedic knee and hip procedures. Because MAKO is currently unprofitable the boom and bust it could experience because of its unique niche versus the effects of Obamacare could really be a huge catalyst. Take clues from MAKO's management as another indicator of where Intuitive may head next and keep your eyes fixated on Intuitive's July 18 report.

Critics of real estate portals�Zillow (NASDAQ: Z ) and�Trulia (NYSE: TRLA ) �have long thought both companies represented poor business models, and the $3.5 billion all-stock merger of the two isn't about to change anyone's mind.�Although there's been a lot of ink spilled about the benefits to accrue from combining the two real estate info houses, this may end up being less a fortuitous joining of forces and�more like the merger of declining retailers Sears, Roebuck and Kmart that resulted in Sears Holding, which is still a sickly business today.

www.ea.com There were plenty of winners and losers this week, including a merger of two fast-growing real estate website operators and a theme park operator taking another hit. Here's a rundown of the week's smartest moves and biggest blunders. Tesla Motors (TSLA) -- Winner The country's coolest automaker -- and one of the hottest stocks over the past two years -- continues to grow in popularity. The maker of luxury plug-in electric cars posted a better than expected adjusted profit in its latest quarter, with revenue nearly doubling. Tesla is on track to deliver 35,000 of its Model S sedans this year. It also announced on Thursday that it expects to produce 60,000 cars next year as the Model X crossover joins its lineup. Tesla's rich multiples aren't for the squeamish, but the company seems to be revolutionizing the automotive industry. One can only imagine how things will be when it starts rolling out its more reasonably priced Model III car in three years. SeaWorld (SEAS) -- Loser SeaWorld can't seem to catch a break, even when misfortune results in denial. SeaWorld and Southwest Airlines (LUV) are ending their marketing partnership after 26 years. The relationship had Southwest promoting the marine life theme park operator on some of its planes and SeaWorld offering Southwest-branded relaxation and charging stations. Anti-SeaWorld protestors had demonstrated at Southwest's headquarters earlier this year, and more than 32,000 people had signed an online petition at change.org urging the air carrier to end its association with SeaWorld. However, this already unfortunate story makes the cut this week because of SeaWorld's explanation on why the two companies will part ways when the latest contract is up at the end of the year. "With an increasing international visitor base, SeaWorld is looking to focus on new and growing markets in Latin America and Asia, among others," SeaWorld explains in a joint statement with Southwest, almost as if it's saying that
