MorphoSys facing a takeover? Exciting autumn ahead for BioNTech and XPhyto
Biotech investors could be in for an exciting autumn. After some sharp price corrections, positive things are happening again in the biotech sector. For one thing, the takeover carousel. It all started in June when Pfizer announced the acquisition of migraine specialist Biohaven for USD 11.6 billion, and GlaxoSmithKline plans to swallow Sierra Oncology for around USD 1.9 billion. Recent deals include the acquisitions of ViaCyte, La Jolla Pharmaceutical and Pliant Therapeutics. MorphoSys is also a possible takeover candidate. It could be a win-win for the German biotech company if the price is attractive. Xphyto could also see at least one investment, as a market-ready product has great potential.

Waiting is not an option! BioNTech, MAS Gold, BASF
Inflation is rising and rising. In construction, inflation has already reached almost 20%. Even in everyday life, double-digit inflation rates are not far away. At the same time, infection figures are rising, and it is still uncertain whether gas will flow through Nord Stream 1 again in the coming weeks. Given this mixed situation, many investors are asking how they should invest. Because one thing is clear: waiting is not an option - the real return on many asset classes is clearly negative. We take a look at three stocks and check their future prospects.

Easing at BioNTech and BASF, and Almonty Industries with a clear signal
Concerns about the onset of a global recession are increasing dramatically, as shown by the economic data published last week. As a result, almost all asset classes corrected, and the fluctuation range increased enormously. In addition to the stock markets, which have been in a correction for months, crypto and precious metals prices also fell sharply. Even the oil price, which has been booming due to the Russian sanctions, was dragged down. At current levels, however, attractive, anti-cyclical entry opportunities are emerging.

A big surprise at BioNTech, and what are Valneva and NervGen doing?
Surprise at BioNTech: competitor CureVac sues the Mainz-based biotech company for alleged patent infringements. Specifically, the lawsuit concerns BioNTech's Corona vaccine, which is based on mRNA technology. CureVac founder Ingmar Hoerr, in turn, is considered the discoverer of this new vaccination technology. However, CureVac failed with the development of its own Corona vaccine. Valneva also had no luck with its Corona vaccine, but it seems to have an attractive product pipeline. Nevertheless, the euphoria over the entry of the US pharmaceutical group Pfizer has faded. The situation at NervGen is different: according to experts, NervGen could achieve its greatest success in decades with NVG-291 in the fight against Alzheimer's disease. Tomorrow, a capital increase is to be completed, and the share price will likely regain momentum.

Strong signs at BioNTech and Defence Therapeutics, and Valneva closes the gap!
****Without question, the future belongs to biotechnology. The record-breaking development of vaccines, tests and drugs in the wake of the Corona pandemic, which broke out more than two years ago, showed how important this sector is for humanity. Biotechnology stocks are consolidating strongly despite being established as a critical future technology. The NASDAQ Biotech Index has lost about 40% since last summer, creating attractive entry opportunities for investors at a significantly reduced level.

BrainChip and Palantir with strong rebound - How does BioNTech react?
The correction on the stock markets has been going on for months. Technology stocks, in particular, have been hit hard. Due to the end of the ultra-loose monetary policy and possible larger interest rate steps, even market leaders lost more than 80% of their ground in some cases. Whether interest rate hikes can be implemented as planned in the coming months, on the other hand, appears more than questionable. After all, the spectre of recession is already hovering over the capital markets. Moreover, the historical debt levels of several countries are likely to rule out further interest rate hikes.

Takeover fantasy: +50% in Valneva shares, and what are BioNTech and Defence Therapeutics doing?
Tension is rising in the biotech sector as the takeover merry-go-round spins faster and has now hit Valneva. Pfizer's entry caused the stock to explode 50% in three trading days. Earlier, Pfizer had announced it would acquire migraine specialist Biohaven for USD 11.6 billion. Other pharmaceutical giants are also active: Halozyme wants to swallow Antares Pharma, a specialist in urology and endocrinology, for USD 960 million. The acquisition of Sierra Oncology is costing GlaxoSmithKline around USD 1.9 billion. Like Valneva, Defence Therapeutics is about to start important trials and could attract a major partner. A takeover of BioNTech is unlikely, but the flagship German biotech should also benefit from improved sentiment in the industry. The coming week should be operationally exciting for shareholders.

Market-independent returns? This is how it's done! Valneva, NervGen, BioNTech
When the stock market is in high gear, it is time for cool heads. Even if many managers are suspected of only having an eye on the next few quarters, there are still some decisions with far-reaching consequences, especially in the case of takeovers and mergers. Most recently, Pfizer acquired a stake in the vaccine manufacturer Valneva. The share price performance to date did not suggest such a step. Here is why the decision could still pay off for shareholders and what signal effect the deal will have.

BioNTech, Defence Therapeutics, Formycon - Biotech stocks with a lot of future potential
A look at the NASDAQ Biotechnology Index shows that the big hype on biotech companies seems to be over for now. Since September 2021, the index has been falling, repeatedly marking new lows. However, this decline can also be seen as an opportunity because the long-term prospects for the industry are good. People are getting older, and with age comes the diseases that want to be fought. Today we look at three companies with a lot of potential for the future.

Unheeded crisis signals! What is next: BioNTech, Lufthansa, Triumph Gold
There are always comeback stocks on the stock market. The airports are full of travellers who are being drawn to distant countries. So the tourism industry, and airlines too, could almost strap themselves in for a comeback. If only it weren't for the new BA.5 virus variant, which has infected large parts of the population in Portugal within a very short time. It seems investors have to choose between travel stocks and pandemic stocks when looking for comeback stocks - or is there a laughing third party?
