  • Biotechnology
  • Pharma
  • Cancer

The International Agency for Research on Cancer estimates the number of cancer deaths worldwide for the year 2022 to be around 10 million. However, the number of new cancer cases in the same year amounted to around 20 million, and cancer is still considered incurable. Lung cancer remains the sad frontrunner, claiming the most lives worldwide. Colorectal and stomach cancer follow at a considerable distance. However, since the original launch of the "Cancer Moonshot" in 2016, the fight against this incurable disease in the US has made some progress in the realization of therapies. Recently, there has been an increase in success stories from many biotech companies, and investors' enthusiasm is palpable once again. Where are the Biotech game changers lurking for the 2024 investment year?

BioNTech, Defence Therapeutics, Bayer - Golden times for the biotech and pharma industry?

  • Biotechnology
  • Pharma
  • Covid19

With the arrival of winter, people are increasingly worried about illnesses such as coronavirus and influenza. The current wave of diseases and the new coronavirus variant are increasing the demand for medicines, which could positively impact the shares of pharmaceutical and biotech companies. Biotech's success in drug development for COVID-19 vaccines has allowed the industry to flourish over the past two years. But after the boom came the crash. However, the stock market always moves in cycles. The current challenges in the healthcare sector, such as the rising number of cancer cases, could, therefore, mean golden times for pharmaceutical and biotech companies, as they not only contribute to improving global health but also offer attractive returns for investors.

Which stocks are leading the fight against cancer and chronic diseases? Defence Therapeutics, Merck and BioNTech

  • Biotechnology
  • Pharma

The pharmaceutical industry is facing complex developments in the fight against cancer, with Defence Therapeutics making significant progress with the successful FDA filing for its drug for the targeted treatment of tumors. The growing market opportunities in oncology until 2032 underline the potential of this breakthrough. In contrast, Merck KGaA is experiencing a severe setback with an 11% share price decline following the failure of evobrutinib for the relief of MS in late-stage clinical trials. According to analysts, this also impacts the Company's valuation. Despite promising cancer-fighting approaches, BioNTech faces uncertainties due to a reduced revenue forecast for 2023 and an 'Underweight' rating from JP Morgan. Despite these challenges, the sector remains dynamic. Find out which shares could be worthwhile in the long term here.

Biotech Alert! Morphosys, Bayer, BioNTech and Defence Therapeutics

  • Biotechnology
  • Pharma

Morphosys is not for the faint-hearted. After unclear study results, the stock gave up its annual gains within a few days. Analysts are also divided on what the future holds. On December 10, the study details will be released, hopefully shedding light on the situation. Bayer shareholders are currently seeing dark clouds. The stock plummeted from EUR 40 to EUR 30 in a short time. Is the dividend now at risk, or is the entire company in jeopardy? There is a slew of positive news for Defence Therapeutics. Can the stock break out of its sideways trend? A potential partner for the Canadians could be BioNTech. The German biotech favourite is working with full coffers on cancer vaccines. However, analysts remain cautious.

Caution: New Corona wave ahead? BioNTech, Pfizer, Cardiol Therapeutics and MorphoSys on the performance test bench

  • Biotechnology
  • Pharma
  • Covid19

Smouldering lawsuits from vaccinated patients experiencing severe side effects have caused investors to doubt BioNTech and Pfizer in recent months. Will the plaintiffs be successful in court? This is rather unlikely, as the vaccine manufacturers can always invoke the time component in the fight against the pandemic. After all, what the WHO and all governments wanted was delivered: A quick solution! Moreover, these vaccines were finally approved by well-known health institutes. The biotech investment segment will become exciting again as winter approaches. The infection figures with the new coronavirus variants are rising noticeably again, and around 15% of the population wishes to get vaccinated. Where are the opportunities for investors?

BioNTech and Bayer under pressure - Defence Therapeutics, on the other hand, with good results. Where is it worth investing?

  • Biotechnology
  • Pharma

There are currently big losers in the pharma and biotech sector among the companies that were the biggest beneficiaries of the Coronavirus Crisis. Sales at Pfizer/BioNTech are plummeting, and the entire sector is under pressure. In addition, there are patent disputes and increasing cost pressures from health insurance companies, especially in Europe. There are also high bureaucratic hurdles in the EU, meaning that more and more specialists prefer to emigrate to North America. Bayer's pharmaceuticals division is doing well, but the Company is struggling with the legal disputes surrounding the Monsanto takeover. In contrast to the first two companies mentioned, the news from Defence Therapeutics is consistently positive. We examine where it is worth getting in.

More than 300% share price opportunity: BioNTech, Morphosys and Cardiol Therapeutics

  • Biotechnology
  • CBD

Study results, along with acquisitions by Big Pharma, are the drivers of biotech company share prices. However, in the current challenging stock market environment, even positive data can be overlooked. But this opens up opportunities for investors with a little more staying power. Sooner or later, the information is recognized, and stock prices rise, or a pharmaceutical giant makes a move. At BioNTech, for example, the price reaction to the long-awaited news from the cancer pipeline has failed to materialize. Analysts are also cautious. Cardiol Therapeutics is a different story. The Canadians have taken on the fight against heart disease and are making significant progress in their research. The share had more than doubled to EUR 1.08 by the summer. Several analysts see the current setback as a buying opportunity. Experts are also giving the thumbs up to German biotech pioneer Morphosys.

Omicron or Pirola? Biotech shows doubling opportunities again! BioNTech, Pfizer, Defence Therapeutics, MorphoSys in focus

  • Biotechnology

We had ticked off the Corona pandemic long ago. But if you ask your acquaintances, you may find one or two who have recently been infected with the "Pirola" variant. The official code of the virus variant is BA.2.86, and it was first discovered in Israel. The current infections are spreading rapidly across Europe and have also reached Germany. So far, the new Omicron offshoot appears less contagious than its predecessors. The new symptoms associated with "Pirola" include skin rashes, diarrhea, changes in the mouth and tongue, itchy eyes and surprisingly, sore fingers or toes. What is going on here? It is a reason to look again at BioNTech and some other biotechs. Where are the opportunities lurking?

BioNTech, Cardiol Therapeutics, Paion - Rising Attractiveness and Lots of Movement

  • Biotechnology
  • Innovations
  • Technology

The current geopolitical uncertainties with escalating conflicts in Ukraine and Israel, as well as fears of recession with continued high inflation, have also impacted the capital-intensive biotech sector. In the past week, the Nasdaq Biotech Index fell to its lowest level of the year. Since the beginning of the year, the loss amounts to almost 12%. This level should offer excellent entry opportunities for long-term investors, as many biotech companies are currently very well-positioned and attractively valued.

  • heartdisease

The biotech and pharmaceutical sector is playing an increasingly important role in our society. This can be attributed primarily to demographic change, as people worldwide are getting older and older. As life expectancy increases, so does the prevalence of age-related diseases such as cancer and heart disease. These two disease categories place a significant burden on healthcare systems and require innovative solutions for diagnosis, treatment and prevention. After Corona, this could be where the next global blockbuster is developed. We look at three interesting candidates.
