The easing of measures to contain the Corona Pandemic will be further extended and, in parallel, companies and their employees will be able to increase personal communications again. However, the curfew phase was also used for strategic decisions and developments, as investors can see from announcements in recent weeks. The situation represents a crisis for many people, but it is also an opportunity for change and a new beginning. Market participants have learned in recent months that dependence on China leads to many bottlenecks and global diversification is therefore necessary. Anyone who wants to be part of it must have the right shares in their portfolio.

    Emergence of an EU player

    The former Goldman Sachs manager Jonathan Summers took over the helm at the young supplier EXMceuticals at the end of 2019. The company focuses on the production of pure ingredients and active ingredients for the healthcare sector.

    Medical products have a particularly high standard and the more demanding the market, the higher the margins are usually. Last week, EXMceuticals announced the first buyer, thus attracting the attention of investors. The company is listed on the stock exchanges in Germany and Canada and the share price has already increased.

    Healthcare market in transition

    EXMceuticals will be established in Europe in the context of a shell acquisition in 2019. From Lisbon in Portugal, the operative business will be implemented and customers will be supplied. The main focus is on the EU. A growth market for pure ingredients extracted from the cannabis plant will gain in importance in the coming years. The European location is particularly exciting in view of the fact that in future the residence and the closeness to the market will be a competitive advantage.

    Since COVID-19 at the latest, people in the EU have known how high the dependence on Asian suppliers is. Many an investor in EXMceuticals, with its current market value of around EUR 13 million, recalls the early phase of Symrise, which now has a market capitalization of EUR 13 billion.

    Profits with solutions

    The companies BioNTech and Shop Apotheke Europe have been among the problem solvers and bearers of hope since the spread of COVID-19 in the investor circles. The shares of these companies have risen accordingly. Shop Apotheke has been particularly in demand in recent months in the context of the supply of drugs and health-related products because of temporary supply bottlenecks in shops or because people did not dare to go out into the streets and the online shop offered an alternative source of supply.

    The BioNTech shares benefited from the success reports in connection with the development of a vaccine for COVID-19. The market value of BioNTech is currently USD 11.00 billion and that of Shop Apotheke Europe EUR 1.16 billion.

    Volatility in the growth stock sector has caused quite a few swings in recent weeks. While Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly are still struggling with margin declines from semaglutide injections, shares of the plant-based meat provider Beyond Meat have been bouncing around like a ball in orbit. After a rapid tenfold increase in October, November appears to be all about the reverse gear, with the stock currently down 80% from its peak. Those with strong nerves and a quick hand on the mouse are in luck. Things are calmer and steadier with PanGenomic Health. Here, the high levels since summer must first be digested before the next upward cycle can begin. We highlight a few opportunities.

    People will always eat and drink - or will they? This old saying is only partially true today. More and more people are paying close attention to what they eat. Instead of letting brand recognition or price dictate their choices when shopping, consumers have been embracing the trend of mindful eating for years, paying particular attention to healthy nutrition and their own well-being. In addition, food has become a way for individuals to express their identity and stand out from others. Ultimately, this is creating a fragmented market catering to diverse interests, which also offers significant opportunities for investors.
