Novo Nordisk, BioNxt Solutions, Bayer – The market continues to boom
The weight-loss drug market was one of the fastest-growing sectors in the past year and shows no signs of slowing down in 2025. Companies like Novo Nordisk have seen their valuations multiply in recent years, significantly boosting their market capitalization. At the same time, smaller life sciences companies in the second tier, such as those with breakthrough technologies, offer interesting entry opportunities.

Barrick Gold, Desert Gold, Novo Nordisk - How political decisions and market opportunities drive prices
The capital markets are again demonstrating how closely intertwined political decisions, external market factors, and entrepreneurial skills are. The planned expansion of Medicare and Medicaid coverage of obesity drugs could open up new growth prospects for the Danish pharmaceutical giant Novo Nordisk in the US. However, the wind of change is blowing in the direction of a new administration with a strong reputation in the US healthcare sector. Industry giant Barrick Gold shines with impressive numbers, with operating cash flow alone at USD 23 billion. Meanwhile, explorer Desert Gold is securing fresh capital through clever financing for its promising SMSZ gold project in Mali, Africa. Here is what investors should be looking out for now.

Novo Nordisk, BioNxt Solutions, Bavarian Nordic – Opportunities after a horror week
The past trading week was one to forget for the biotech and medtech sectors. With the nomination of the anti-vaccine Robert F. Kennedy as the future US Secretary of Health, stocks such as Moderna, Pfizer and BioNTech lost disproportionately. Even the broadly diversified Nasdaq Biotech Index closed with a weekly loss of over 10%. However, many analysts see the sudden slide as an attractive entry opportunity.

150% turnaround likely! TUI, Saturn Oil + Gas, Plug Power, Novo Nordisk, and Evotec in focus
With the FED's latest interest rate cut, the way is paved for higher prices. In addition to the main performers, investors are increasingly turning their attention to equities that have so far seen little appreciation. The key question here is when the fundamentals will ultimately improve. This could then ensure that the analysts' bias finally turns and positive assessments are possible again. TUI, Evotec, and Plug Power are currently at very interesting points, while Saturn Oil & Gas is delivering results consistently and is now being recognized by institutional investors. Where are the opportunities for investors?

Cardiol Therapeutics, Novo Nordisk, Bayer - Pharma stocks in focus
The healthcare sector promises further blockbusters for investors. Cardiol Therapeutics impresses with its promising Phase II study of CardiolRx™ for the treatment of the heart disease pericarditis. The growing market for pericarditis treatments offers the Company great potential, which has also been positively noted by analysts. The Danish company Novo Nordisk is experiencing impressive growth thanks to its GLP-1-based diabetes and obesity drugs. The active ingredient is causing a stir in the celebrity scene as an off-label weight loss injection, further boosting the Company's sales figures. Bayer AG is facing up to its challenges. Despite slight revenue growth in the second quarter of 2024, profits declined. Nevertheless, CEO Bill Anderson believes the Company is on the right track, particularly thanks to progress in the pharmaceutical pipeline. We have three companies in focus.

Biotech and pharma stocks finally follow suit! Novo Nordisk, Bayer, BioNTech, Vidac Pharma and Evotec on the buy list
Things looked very different at the beginning of the year. After a brilliant rally in the Nasdaq Biotech Index at the end of last year, investors thought the upswing could continue in 2024. So far, this hope has not been confirmed. The main focus for the industry is the refinancing conditions. These have gradually deteriorated, as stubborn inflation is keeping central bank interest rates high. And judging by the wording of central bankers, the next interest rate cut does not seem to be penciled in yet. However, if it happens in the summer, things will likely move quickly for the life sciences sector. Then a quick sector rotation is the order of the day! Here is our buy list for the upcoming event.

Novo Nordisk, Cardiol Therapeutics, Pfizer - Pharma Watchlist: Three top innovators
In the rapidly evolving world of biotechnology and the pharmaceutical industry, a single drug can make all the difference, especially when these drugs are unique. They have the potential to change the entire sector by setting new standards in therapy, addressing unmet medical needs, and ultimately improving the quality of life of countless patients worldwide. These drugs are often called blockbusters and generate revenue of more than USD 1 billion. Innovation often also means creating a moat against the competition. Today, we take a look at three companies that are pursuing unique approaches.

Takeover rumors for biotech shares: BioNTech, Formycon, Cardiol Therapeutics and Novo Nordisk in focus
The biotech sector has significantly lagged behind the performance of artificial intelligence and high-tech this year. This is due to high inflation, which in turn has made an imminent interest rate cut unlikely. Nevertheless, Germany's economic conditions are deteriorating dramatically, particularly due to the ongoing geopolitical conflicts. It should, therefore, come as no surprise if the ECB announces an "emergency interest rate cut" in the summer. That would then be the starting signal for a major reshuffle out of the best performers of recent months and into the long-neglected biotech segment. We have selected a few interesting stocks.

MorphoSys, Defence Therapeutics, Novo Nordisk - Biotech deals: Corporations on a shopping spree!
In 2023, the volume of business in the pharmaceutical industry, with mergers and acquisitions, reached USD 152 billion despite high interest rates. Experts predict that this momentum could continue as large pharmaceutical companies are facing a wave of patent expiries for their key products that will roll in between 2025 and 2030. Companies are therefore on the lookout for new active ingredients, often by acquiring or licensing developments from smaller biotech companies to compensate for potential revenue shortfalls. There have also been major takeovers in recent months. We take a look at takeover targets and buyers.
