BioNTech, Cardiol Therapeutics, Bayer - Tiger mosquitoes, and rising Corona numbers bring biotech back in focus

  • Biotechnology
  • Cancer
  • Covid19

Corona infections are already rising, even though autumn has not even begun. Hospitals are already fearing a high burden during the winter. Gerald Gaß, the Chairman of the Board of the German Hospital Federation, advised high-risk patients, their close contacts and healthcare workers to keep their flu and COVID-19 vaccinations up to date. Due to constant stress triggered by crises and workload-related pressures, the number of heart patients have also increased in recent years. At the end of August, entire neighborhoods and streets in Paris were closed off to spray insecticides against tiger mosquitoes, which spread diseases like dengue and Zika viruses, among others. This is reason enough for us to examine three companies fighting these threats.

Cantourage, Amazon, Bayer: Young entrants soaring, old players in reorientation

  • Cannabis
  • ecommerce
  • chemicals

The time has finally come in Germany: the federal government has given the green light for the private use of cannabis. Since 2017, doctors in Germany have been allowed to prescribe cannabis as a therapeutic agent. The growing market in this segment has been recognized by the team at Cantourage, which focuses on the medical production of active ingredients from the hemp plant. The leadership of Bayer could use some relief. Analysts at Berenberg Bank have put the Leverkusen-based company's balance sheet through its paces and discovered a few things that have now downgraded Bayer's stock from Buy to Hold. Amazon's Cloud Business takes another step forward. The Company's in-house AI is moving into the documentation of medical health reports. Find out what it is all about here.

BioNTech, Defence Therapeutics, Bayer - Who will have trend-setting news first?

  • Biotechnology
  • Pharma

Pharmaceutical and biotech stocks are among the most volatile sectors in the financial markets. Single news stories about new developments or product announcements can not only cause short-term price swings but also have long-term implications, increasing both risk and opportunity for investors. If a breakthrough drug is developed, old preparations can become obsolete - this is good for the innovative company but detrimental to established market participants. As an investor, it is advisable to select specific companies and anticipate directional news through some research.

  • Gold
  • Commodities
  • Lithium

Australian gold and silver explorer Manuka Resources has successfully shipped its third gold shipment to Australasia's leading independent precious metals assayer, ABC Refinery.

Bayer AG is reporting losses of billions of dollars due to write-downs in its Monsanto agriculture division, again fueling breakup rumors. The group is struggling with significant declines in its glyphosate-based weedkiller business, which is weighing heavily on its finances. A promising newcomer on the commodities horizon is emerging right in Germany's Brandenburg region. There, Rock Tech Lithium is working to develop battery-grade lithium hydroxide monohydrate by building and operating lithium hydroxide production facilities.

Pfizer, Cardiol Therapeutics, Bayer - Pharma facing turnaround despite drug shortages?

  • Pharma
  • Biotechnology

In mid-June, there was a shortage of 470 prescription drugs in Germany, according to the Federal Institute for Drugs and Medical Devices. However, not only Germany is suffering from a shortage, but all of Europe. Once again, the dependence on China is the underlying cause. The EU is seeking countermeasures, but this will be challenging because capped prices, bureaucracy and rising energy costs make a location like Germany seem less attractive. At the same time, demographic change means that society needs the pharmaceutical industry more and more urgently. Therefore, we look at three companies that aim to heal sick people.

The global biotechnology market is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 12.8% from 2023 to 2030.

Rheinmetall can report a further plus. Both the German and Dutch armies are ordering airborne vehicles worth billions. Whether these orders are intended solely for Ukraine will become clearer as the latest news unfolds regarding NATO's activities.
