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.

    When interest rates rise, and the mountains of debt in Western industrialised nations grow ever higher, experience shows that investors view the financial system with increasing unease. The automatic tendency to simply park liquidity in accounts or invest it in government bonds is being called into question. On both sides of the Atlantic, the strain is becoming palpable. While US public finances are suffering from ever-higher interest rates, ailing infrastructure and high energy prices are weighing on Europe's economic potential. This also shines a spotlight on banks, which, as key players in the financial system, serve as a barometer of financial stability. Resourceful investors are already changing their behaviour and turning their attention increasingly to crisis-proof tangible assets such as gold.

    The gold market surged by a whopping 15% in August, reaching as high as USD 4,700 per ounce. The last time such an explosive single-month rise was seen in the gold sector was 27 years ago. The triggers are the fragile US fiscal policy, conflicts in the Middle East and the Fed's expected interest rate cut. Gold companies are benefiting from the high gold price. Leading the way are those operating in West Africa's most promising gold-producing regions. In Mali, calm is returning following the political turmoil. The country increased production by 30% in the first half of the year, while Côte d'Ivoire attracts investors with its stability and rich deposits. Reason enough for us to take a closer look at Newmont, Kobo Resources and B2Gold.
