The trading week is coming to an end and on Thursday the German benchmark index DAX continues to trade below the psychological mark of 16,000 points at a level of 15,785 points and an increase of 0.10%. The rest of today and Friday remain to make a jump. It will probably depend on the guidance from the U.S., but at the hour, U.S. futures are all green. MDAX last traded at 34,135 points (+0.07%), TecDAX at 3,544 points (+0.07%) and SDAX at 15,626 points up 0.33%. Companies from the biotech sector are again in the focus of the investors today.

    Share price fireworks after announcement

    The share of Valneva can show the most trades on Tradegate so far on today's trading day. More than 5,600 executed orders have been counted so far. After yesterday's company announcement on the development of a Covid-19 vaccine, the share price increased from below 14.00 EUR to over 20.00 EUR. Currently, the share is trading at EUR 16.86, far from its daily high of EUR 21.20. Compared to the previous day's closing price, the shares are trading around 21% lower. The Novavax shares have also lost ground in recent weeks. In December 2021, the shares still changed hands at over EUR 200.00. Most recently, the shares were traded at EUR 84.20, 3.47% higher than the previous day.

    Investors are betting on the next Covid-19 phase

    Long-Covid is moving more and more into the focus of investors. Canadian biotech Cardiol Therapeutics successfully completed a USD 50 million capital increase in November 2021, significantly expanding its financial resources for product development. The company focuses on heart disease therapy. The proliferation of Covid-19 has significantly increased the need. The analysts of Canaccord and Cantor Fitzgerald grant the shares a price potential of CAD 10.00 and GBC Research even considers CAD 17.49 possible. At present with EUR 1.78 (approx. CAD 2.52) the shares change their owners. On the previous day, there was profit-taking in the shares after several days of price increases. But according to an old stock market saying, "Buy on dips!" - in other words, buy on weakness.

    On Feb. 17, 2022, Cardiol will present at the 'International Investment Forum - IIF' and provide insights to investors. (Free registration: ii-forum.com). Yesterday, a report on Cardiol by stock market expert Carsten Mainitz was also published on researchanalyst.com.

    10% dividend yield and upside potential: These stocks offer both - RE Royalties, Lang & Schwarz, and DWS

    • royalties

    • Investments

    High dividends delight investors. It is even better when they are accompanied by growth potential and rising share prices. Lang & Schwarz's share price has recently plummeted. Can the dividend level of EUR 2, which corresponds to an 11% yield, be maintained for the payout scheduled for late August? DWS is set to pay a special dividend next year, which could also yield up to 10%. RE Royalties tops these figures with a highly scalable and innovative financing model. Furthermore, creating shareholder value is at the top of the priority list. All-around positive prospects for shareholders!

    Interest Rates, Commodities, and Real Estate: Why Deutsche Bank, Globex Mining, and Vonovia Could Help Diversify a Portfolio

    • Mining
    • Commodities
    • RealEstate
    • Investments
    • Banking

    The European Central Bank continues to keep markets guessing over the path of interest rates, geopolitical risks remain elevated, and Germany's residential property market is still searching for stability. The key question is no longer which sector will outperform, but how banks, commodities, and residential real estate can be combined to help balance interest rate risk and broader market volatility. Investors who focus solely on gold or a potential real estate rebound may overlook the more complex reality: monetary policy, commodity cycles, and construction costs each follow their own dynamics. As a result, diversification across these themes is becoming increasingly important. Deutsche Bank, Globex Mining with its diversified commodities portfolio, and the real estate group Vonovia each represent one of these three pillars and could serve as complementary building blocks within a well-diversified portfolio.

    Lahontan Gold's stock is currently one of the most exciting gold mining stocks. The Canadian small-cap has more than tripled over the past year and could be poised for its next big move, as the North American company's business model still holds significant growth potential. This is likely to be confirmed by an updated preliminary economic assessment, which is eagerly anticipated and is scheduled to be completed by the end of August. It could provide this hot stock with new momentum.
