BioNTech, Defence Therapeutics, Bayer - Is a Corona tsunami imminent?

  • Biotechnology
  • Covid19
  • Cancer

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?

  • Biotechnology
  • Covid19
  • Cancer

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.

Takeover fever 2023? BioNTech, Barrick Gold, Standard Lithium, Manuka Resources

  • Mining
  • Vanadium
  • Lithium
  • Biotechnology
  • Gold

The pharmaceutical sector was already in takeover fever last year. BioNTech partner Pfizer, among others, made several acquisitions. The hunger for acquisitions is likely to continue in the current year as major pharmaceutical and biotech companies are looking to fill up their pipelines. The current year could also be exciting for gold stocks. In 2022, companies failed to keep pace with the positive gold price. Producers of raw materials for the energy transition could also get into takeover fever. Manuka Resources could benefit from the latest two trends. The Canadians have just carried out a capital measure to advance their projects. Corporations could also target specialists like Standard Lithium. Rumours that Tesla is looking at lithium projects have been doing the rounds for a long time. And what about Barrick Gold and BioNTech?

New COVID outbreak in China: BioNTech, Cardiol Therapeutics, CureVac and Valneva shares in focus again in 2023

  • Biotechnology
  • Covid19
  • heartdisease

The next COVID wave is rolling towards Europe. Representatives of the EU states therefore want to discuss a unified approach on Wednesday due to the latest development in China. The main issue is how to deal with entrants from China. A spokeswoman for the Federal Ministry of Health in Berlin said that the situation is being closely monitored and that the EU partners are also being consulted. At French airports, arrivals from China are already generally tested for the virus. Italy and Spain have also reacted with corresponding regulations. The German government sees no reason to do so so far. Is Germany too slow again, or is prudence the order of the day?

BioNTech, Defence Therapeutics, Pfizer - The cards are being reshuffled

  • Biotechnology
  • Covid19
  • Investments

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.

Outperformer stocks in 2023? BioNTech, Steinhoff, Saturn Oil + Gas, K+S

  • Mining
  • Oil
  • Gas
  • Biotechnology
  • fertilizer

Will energy stocks continue to be outperformers in 2023? In any case, in 2022, MSCI World Energy clearly outperformed MSCI World. In the case of individual stocks, Shell, for example, has gained over 45% in the current year. Jefferies recommends the stock as a buy with a target price of GPX 3100 (pence). Warren Buffett has also invested billions in the oil sector in 2022. Chevron and Occidental Petroleum are among Berkshire Hathaway's seven largest holdings. Energy, after all, is likely to be in demand in 2023. Those looking to bet on a laggard should look at Saturn Oil & Gas. The Canadian oil producer faces a milestone in 2023, and analysts see over 200% upside potential. BioNTech enters the new year with solid newsflow. And what is Steinhoff doing after the horror news?

BioNxt Solutions, MorphoSys, BioNTech - Innovations and scaling potential for the portfolio

  • Biotechnology

Around the world, patients are used to swallowing medicines in pill form. Sales of oral, fixed-dose drugs alone accounted for a whopping 23.8% of the global pharmaceutical drug delivery market in 2021. That is reason enough for Canadian biotech company BioNxt Solutions to further expand its strategic pole position. BioNxt Solutions secures further rights to a unique platform technology in this segment. Caution is currently the order of the day for MorphoSys. Analysts downgrade the target price from EUR 16 to EUR 12 after a disappointing Q3. BioNTech, on the other hand, can expand its dominance. The Mainz-based company is scaling up in the Asia-Pacific region with new production sites.

BASF, BioNTech, Cardiol Therapeutics: Stocks for 2023?

  • Biotechnology
  • chemicals
  • Investments

Is there a 400% upside potential in 2023? At the end of a challenging 2022 stock market year, we are looking ahead to the new year. Which share is worth buying, and which is better left alone? In the case of BASF, the high dividend yield is one of the attractions. The latest company news shows that the chemical group is also involved in the mega market of electromobility. But the dependence on gas supplies is causing uncertainty, and an analyst has renewed a sell recommendation for BASF shares. BioNTech, on the other hand, is looking good, even if the chart picture has recently clouded over. The development pipeline is full, capacities - especially in Asia - are being expanded, and analysts are also more courageous again. Investors also need a little courage and, above all, patience with Cardiol Therapeutics. They could soon be rewarded. The cash position of the biotech pearl is almost equal to the market capitalization, the main product is already in the Phase 2 pilot study, and analysts see massive upside potential.

BioNTech top, Morphosys flop and Defence Therapeutics takeover candidate?

  • Biotechnology
  • vaccine
  • Cancer

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.

Bayer, BioNTech, Auxico Resources: 200% price gain possible?

  • Mining
  • Commodities
  • RareEarths
  • Biotechnology

With lower than expected inflation in the US, the year-end rally has picked up speed. Could the recession be off after all, or at least short-lived? This would likely boost the stock market in the coming year as well. Today we look at three stocks with potential that benefit from global trends and less from developments in Germany. In the case of Bayer, Bernstein Research has outed itself as a super bull. The global agricultural business should continue to run strong. Auxico Resources is positioning itself as a trader of rare earths and critical raw materials. Revenues are expected to jump significantly in the coming year, and analysts say the stock could triple. BioNTech could finally break out of the sideways trend it has been in since early 2022. The new combination vaccine and the cancer pipeline give hope.
