Defence Therapeutics, Bayer, BioNTech - US investors love biotech stocks
US investors love biotech companies. So it is thanks to pressure from investor Jeff Ubben that Bayer AG's leadership is changing a year earlier than planned. Shareholders welcome the decision, with Bayer's share price rising a whopping 5% this week. The fight against cancer is the mission of the Canadian company Defence Therapeutics. They have taken another critical step forward in the pipeline to bring their cancer therapy to solid tumors. BioNTech co-founder Ugur Sahin is also showing commitment. The Turkish-born physician actively supports the crisis regions of the earthquakes in his home country and Syria. Find out how this relates to the Group's profits here.

BioNTech, Defence Therapeutics, PAION - All dams broken
High price fluctuations due to approvals or successful test results are more the norm than the rule in the biotechnology sector. It is common for smaller stocks, in particular, to multiply within a few days. For example, the shares of Ambrx Biopharma increased by a whopping 1,000% within just one day, while the German biotech hopeful PAION doubled in price within a week. The next candidates for above-average performances are already waiting in the wings.

Mega biotech rally 2023! Defence Therapeutics, Bayer, BioNTech, Morphosys - Where to put the money?
Who would have thought it? Since the beginning of the year, the stock markets have been jubilant despite difficult predictions about the economic trend in 2023. High inflation and rising interest rates are not a good breeding ground for the popular biotech stocks because they have to constantly refinance their research expenses. As the risk fee is readjusted as costs rise, investors demand higher premiums for providing money. However, some biotech stocks have taken off since the beginning of the year despite adverse conditions. What is their secret?

BioNTech, Defence Therapeutics, Bayer - Is a Corona tsunami imminent?
At the beginning of December, things were quiet concerning Corona. The feared wave failed to materialize, and there were no new variants. On December 7, China announced a relaxation of Corona measures. Now the country is facing a gigantic Corona wave. Many European countries have already imposed mandatory testing for entry from China. Germany has now followed suit. In parallel, the Consumer Electronics Show 2023 ran from the 5th to the 8th in Las Vegas, where all kinds of companies from all over the world presented their latest technology. Chinese companies also exhibited there. Because of the multitude of infections, new deadly mutations could emerge. As a result, pharmaceutical and biotech companies are coming back into focus.

It is the year 2023 and COVID is back! BioNTech, Bayer, Defence Therapeutics, Morphosys - Which stocks stand up to the virus from China?
The next COVID wave is raging in China. The situation is no less dramatic today than in 2019 because until now, only vaccines produced in the country may be administered to locals in China. Before Christmas, however, the German government obtained permission to have Germans in China vaccinated with the active ingredient from BioNTech and immediately had the first doses flown out to Beijing. Yesterday, the EU discussed a joint reaction to the current conditions in China. German medical officials are calling for mandatory Europe-wide testing of all people entering the country and are warning of a new, dangerous virus mutation due to the large numbers of infections. Investors are therefore taking the vaccine experts back into focus.

BioNTech, Defence Therapeutics, Pfizer - The cards are being reshuffled
The Corona pandemic is seemingly coming to an end after almost three long years. The return to normality, now in China and the rest of the world, is a relief for society and the economy. In contrast, vaccine manufacturers are losing a billion-dollar business that is difficult to compensate for with products in other areas of application. Nevertheless, the stock market valuations of the vaccine producers continue to be exorbitantly high, as does their drop in value.

BioNTech top, Morphosys flop and Defence Therapeutics takeover candidate?
Biotech shares are volatile. Investors were reminded of this again just last week. Moderna shares initially rose by almost 30%, only to fall back by around 10% towards the weekend. But overall, the mood in the biotech segment was positive. Moderna reported positive study results on a combination therapy of a Moderna cancer vaccine and the tumor drug pembrolizumab from Merck & Co. At BioNTech, two buy recommendations and the expansion in Asia created a good mood. This mood has also prevailed at Defence Therapeutics for several weeks. The Canadians reported positive study results against tumors, and their Accum technology delivers what it promises, in which case mRNA specialists such as Moderna, BioNTech and Co. should be interested in a cooperation or even acquisition. In contrast, Morphosys slides to a new multi-year low.

Attention biotech stocks: Bayer, BioNTech, Defence Therapeutics and Morphosys - These stocks look good!
After months of selling off, they are back: biotech stocks! A strong turn on the NASDAQ quickly flushed the beaten-up stocks back to the top of the hit lists. With COVID out of the spotlight, companies are returning to their long-term research lines. These have been heavily focused on cancer in recent years, and now there is even groundbreaking news on metastasis. BioNTech has thus already gained more than 40% since the October low. Morphosys, on the other hand, lost another 40% after an Alzheimer's study failed to deliver valuable results. It is worth taking another look at the sector.

Advances in the fight against cancer: Arcus Biosciences, Gilead Sciences, Defence Therapeutics, BioNTech
Research studies from 2020 show that 72% of Germans fear cancer. However, very few people want to admit to these fears. But precisely because the subject is a big taboo, it is worth looking at the latest achievements in research. Many companies worldwide have long been fighting the epidemic - and making astonishing progress. Just recently, a US biotech announced encouraging study results. Other companies have yet to launch promising studies. We provide an overview and outline opportunities from an investor's perspective.

Morphosys, Defence Therapeutics, Evotec - Stabilization after the sell-off
After the publication of the figures for the third quarter, many biotech companies were able to surprise positively. Due to the partly panic-like sell-off in this capital-intensive sector, there are attractive entry opportunities at a strongly discounted level, which should pay off with disproportionate price gains in the long term. The fact that promising companies are already trading below their cash levels shows that the panic is exaggerated. There are currently signs of a bottoming out, which could herald the next upward wave.
