The Corona Pandemic brings with it many changes. The influences in the supply chain are affecting the economy to the point of stagnation. The lack of contact for people creates challenges in coping with everyday life. The term 'home office' is used in an inflationary way - and often misused, because the difference between 'home office' and 'working from home' is the noise and stress level around it. On top of this, there are also supply bottlenecks for hygiene products, basic foodstuffs and protective equipment. According to a recent statement by the Federal Minister of Economics, Peter Altmaier (CDU), Germany will need 12 billion masks per year to protect the population. But the well-being of the people also depends on other factors.

    Early stage opportunity

    The young Canadian company EXMceuticals focuses on the extraction of pure ingredients from the cannabis plant. The company operates as a supplier for the manufacture of products requiring high quality ingredients. EXMceuticals is operationally located in Lisbon, Portugal and is currently planning to set up a production plant there.

    The management around CEO Jonathan Summers sees the European market as the primary sales market. The product world with cannabis as an ingredient is being developed worldwide. The natural active ingredient has already established itself in many areas and the market with pure ingredients is quite lucrative. The EXMceuticals shares enable investors to participate at an early stage with price potential.

    Success story with ingredients

    One of the most renowned companies in the global flavors and ingredients business is Symrise from Germany. In some regions of the world, the population comes into contact with Symrise products 20 to 30 times a day. The flavors and active ingredients are used in more than 30,000 products from over 6,000 customers in more than 100 countries, and their ingredients and flavors ensure natural nutrition.

    Products from Symrise's portfolio can also be found in the cosmetics sector. After a brief period of weakness, the Symrise share price is now back above the level of January 2020.

    Group with diversification

    The shares of the German Bayer Group can also benefit from the period following the Corona Pandemic, as the demand for medical products will continue to grow in the future. It is possible that there will be Bayer's application products that in the future may limit the spread of viral diseases or alleviate their consequences.

    In addition, the acquisition of Monsanto has given the Bayer Group strong roots in the agricultural sector, and the issue of sustainable and healthy nutrition will become an issue that Bayer can address with modern, environmentally friendly products as the population grows around the world. At the moment, the uncertainty surrounding the financial extent of the legal actions for damages in connection with the Monsanto acquisition is creating uncertainties in planning - but the chapter is also finite.

    In 2025, the pharmaceutical market faces significant challenges, including rising costs and regulatory hurdles. In this environment, companies like NetraMark, Bayer, and Novo Nordisk could make a significant difference through innovative solutions and strategic partnerships. NetraMark, a Canadian HealthTech company, is revolutionizing clinical trials with AI technology, which could be particularly beneficial in the areas of research into active ingredients for the central nervous system and in oncology. These are currently the biggest dropouts in industry. NetraMark's technology could increase the efficiency of drug development and open up new opportunities for investors. Bayer is focusing on targeted therapies in precision oncology and has a promising drug in development that specifically targets an overarching mutation in various cancers. Novo Nordisk is cementing its reputation as an innovator in the fight against chronic obesity, particularly with its successor to the obesity drug CagriSema. The Phase III REDEFINE 2 study achieved its primary objective, although the results fell short of high expectations. A closer look is now warranted.

    Things have been moving at a rapid pace since the old and new President of the United States, Donald Trump, took office. Around 80 decrees were signed on the first working day alone. One of the Republican's goals is to make the US the "global hub for crypto and artificial intelligence". With the commitment of over USD 500 billion for the largest AI project in history, the industry is likely to face further appreciation. The price of gold has also increased, and it is now approaching the magic mark of USD 3,000 per ounce. In this context, producers and exploration companies are now likely to tap into their catch-up potential.

    The capital markets are again demonstrating how closely intertwined political decisions, external market factors, and entrepreneurial skills are. The planned expansion of Medicare and Medicaid coverage of obesity drugs could open up new growth prospects for the Danish pharmaceutical giant Novo Nordisk in the US. However, the wind of change is blowing in the direction of a new administration with a strong reputation in the US healthcare sector. Industry giant Barrick Gold shines with impressive numbers, with operating cash flow alone at USD 23 billion. Meanwhile, explorer Desert Gold is securing fresh capital through clever financing for its promising SMSZ gold project in Mali, Africa. Here is what investors should be looking out for now.
