BioNxt Solutions, Bayer, BioNTech - These pharma stocks offer growth potential
The risk of cancer is increasing worldwide for people over the age of 50. The reasons for this are lack of sleep and exercise, pre-existing diseases and poor nutrition. It has now also been scientifically proven that permanent stress is a cause of Parkinson's disease. According to the WHO, disabilities and deaths due to Parkinson's are increasing faster worldwide than for any other neurological disease. Pharmaceutical and biotech companies are doing everything they can to improve the quality of life of those affected. The Canadian biotech company BioNxt is working on a comparative study to improve a therapy patch for treating Parkinson's and make accompanying drug products scalable. Bayer subsidiary Bluerock Therapeutics is using data from the Apple Watch to research Parkinson's symptoms. And CEO Uğur Şahin of BioNTech has closed a billion-dollar deal in cancer therapy.

Bayer, BioNxt, BioNTech - Biotech is on the rise again, bring on the blockbusters!
The time of the vaccine producers is over because the willingness to vaccinate is declining worldwide. As a result, the entire biotech sector has entered a strong correction phase since the pandemic mode for COVID-19 ended. In the process, sector leader BioNTech suffered a loss of over 70% from its high. Complicating matters for companies is the significant increase in interest rates for long-term financing of their pipelines. When refinancing costs rise, this often leads to lower valuations. However, some companies are impressing with their innovations and have recently shown significant outperformance to the market. We evaluate the opportunities of some well-known biotech protagonists!

Defeat cancer! Defence Therapeutics, BioNTech, Morphosys, Bayer - These biotechs are close
The listed biotechnology sector has entered a strong correction phase since the COVID-19 pandemic mode ended. In the process, sector leader BioNTech suffered a loss of over 70% from its high. Compounding the problem for companies is the significant increase in interest rates for long-term financing. The segment relies on revolving investor capital, but the corresponding risk parameters have been adjusted upward, making some refinancings extremely expensive. Costs are rising, which is leading to renewed price markdowns. However, some companies are convincing through their innovative strength and have recently outperformed the market. We take a closer look at the blockbuster stocks.

BioNTech, Pfizer, Bayer and BioNxt Solutions on the biotech takeover merry-go-round
2023 could become the year of takeovers in the pharmaceutical and biotech sectors. This is what the experts at PwC expect. Thus, at the JP Morgan industry conference in San Francisco, not only were takeover candidates discussed but billion-dollar transactions were reported. One reason is the Inflation Reduction Act in the USA. This allows negotiations on drug prices. To prevent sales declines, Big Pharma must invest in new top sellers. And it is already doing so. The latest takeover rumor comes from BioNTech partner Pfizer. At BioNTech, the negative news currently outweighs the positive. Whether Bayer will take action with the boss or be taken over itself is not yet entirely clear. But there are also opportunities for investors in the smallcap sector. Take BioNxt Solutions, for example - the Canadian company with its operational focus in Germany recently secured new patents, and the share price has jumped.

Nel share slumps, a 60% chance with Bayer, Almonty Industries and BASF
The Nel share was one of the big daily losers yesterday. As a result, the upward trend has finally been broken, and analysts' opinions differ widely. Berenberg sees the BASF share as a hold after the publication of the quarterly figures. The price target is EUR 55. The figures are in line with expectations. However, the end of share buybacks and concerns about future competitiveness weigh on the stock. By contrast, analysts see up to 60% upside potential for Bayer. Almonty Industries is benefiting from the boom in electromobility and also defense spending. As the leading tungsten producer outside China, analysts suspect it could soon come to a bidding war.

BioNTech, BioNxt Solutions, Bayer - Turn of the tide
Just how fundamental biotechnology already is for humanity was demonstrated by the development of the various COVID vaccines, which was extremely rapid by historical standards. Previously unknown companies such as BioNTech, Valneva and CureVac came into the focus of the stock market and were able to multiply within a very short time. Even after the pandemic has ended, research in the biotech sector is running at full speed. This is giving rise to new, innovative growth companies that could follow a similar trajectory in the future.

BioNTech, Pfizer, Cardiol Therapeutics, Bayer - Biotech stocks facing a revival?
The BIO Deutschland association represents the German biotech industry. According to an announcement on January 18, financing of biotech companies plummeted by 2/3 in 2022. Overall, the sector raised only EUR 920 million in equity. During the Corona pandemic, many biotech stocks did well. Subsequently, profit-taking occurred and rising interest rates put additional pressure on stocks. That could change in 2023. Meanwhile, some companies are valued low, and so these companies appear on the radar of investors from the United States. According to Handelsblatt, Water Street, an investment company focused on pharma and biotech, has already invested EUR 1 billion, mainly in Germany. A total of EUR 6 billion is to be invested.
