    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.

    Silver Viper Minerals – The perfect combination of a silver boom, exploration potential, and takeover speculation

    • Mining
    • Silver
    • Commodities
    • Takeover
    • Investments

    All eyes are on silver. Recently, the price per troy ounce almost reached the USD 120 mark. Even though short-term speculation is on the rise, one thing is certain: the silver market is experiencing a sustained and structural supply deficit. All in all, these are favorable conditions for existing and prospective producers. Mexico is the global leader in silver production and is dynamically developing new deposits. Investors can benefit from this situation with Silver Viper Minerals shares. Under the leadership of an experienced management team with a strong track record, the Company is developing large, high-quality silver properties in the Central American country. Further progress is also fueling takeover speculation.

    Alamos Gold, DRC Gold, Rio Tinto – Gold, silver, and metals poised for another surge

    Gold and silver are racing from one high to the next, sending a clear signal to the markets. What was long considered a short-term flight to safety is increasingly becoming a structural trend. Exploding government debt, persistent inflation risks, and a fragile geopolitical situation are increasing the need for investors worldwide to hedge their bets. In this environment, industrial metals and strategic commodities are coming into focus alongside traditional precious metals. Supply bottlenecks, geopolitical dependencies, and rising demand due to the energy transition and digitalization suggest that 2026 could be another profitable year not only for gold and silver but for the entire commodities sector.

Initial partnerships with major customers, concrete supply agreements, and the expansion of production capacities are fueling imagination and increasingly bringing the battery specialist into the focus of investors.
