With anticipation building for both the Q3 earnings season and the US election results, the markets are in a wait-and-see mode. Democrat frontrunner Kamala Harris is said to be committed to continuing the successful policies of her predecessor Joe Biden. Of course, science, research and climate protection are in the spotlight. Her rival, Donald Trump, is said to be more concerned with strengthening the traditional economy, where automotive engineering, the defense industry and security companies come to the fore. Additionally, markets are looking to central banks for cues, as lower interest rates would be a boon for the biotech sector. Here are some investment ideas for dynamic investors in this promising climate.

The stock market keeps climbing, and now it is moving even faster with a double-whammy interest rate cut from the Fed! In a surprising move, the US Federal Reserve pulls a 0.5% rate cut from its magic hat, boosting market sentiment. Now, it is certain that life will continue in the biotech sector. However, selecting the right stocks remains challenging. With a medium-term focus, paying attention to management quality is important because the recent price declines were too high in some cases. However, some research approaches promise a better future. BioNTech, Pfizer, and Bayer have already bottomed out. Nyxoah and Evotec are now showing the first signs of breaking out after a period of consolidation. What is the short-term outlook?

Despite all the prophecies of doom, life goes on in the biotech sector. With a medium-term focus, it makes sense to bet on management qualities, as the recent price drops were partially too severe, but the research approaches promise a better future. BioNTech and Pfizer still have to deal with the COVID-19 issue, while Bayer has now taken all measures to achieve a turnaround. The situation at Cardiol Therapeutics and Evotec is particularly interesting, as the members of the Management Board continue to buy shares regularly.

  • Biotechnology
  • Pharma

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.

Attention: Biotech takeovers, after MorphoSys, now Bayer, Vidac Pharma, BioNTech and Pfizer are on the radar

  • Innovations

Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been little movement in the biotech sector. However, after a challenging year in 2023, the sector was at least able to start the new year on a solid footing. The surprising takeover of MorphoSys recently got hearts beating again, as Novartis put a whopping EUR 2.7 billion on the table for the cancer specialist from Munich. Only months before, MorphoSys had been traded on the stock exchange at just EUR 700 million. The special market situation in this case was also characterized by the high short ratio, which led to an exorbitant rise in the share price of almost 400% in the final phase. Speculative investors are now keeping a wary eye on potential takeover candidates as the sector is once again attracting considerable attention. We are taking a closer look and searching for the next pearl.

MorphoSys and Cardiol Therapeutics in upward mode, while Bayer and Pfizer are in slow mode

  • Biotechnology
  • Pharma

The biotech sector has made a very differentiated start to the new year. While the old favorites are barely moving, the second-line stocks MorphoSys and Cardiol Therapeutics are making a real splash. At Bayer, the bad news just won't go away, and despite a successful major takeover, Pfizer has not yet found its forward gear. After a rally of almost 15% in December, the Nasdaq Biotechnology Index (NBI) has taken a pause in the current year. Now, everyone is waiting for the first interest rate cut by central banks. Inflation is already falling, and the negative economic data for the Eurozone is increasing. The ECB would normally be in demand. What should investors urgently keep an eye on?

Bayer, Defence Therapeutics, Pfizer - Buckle up for the rebound

  • Biotechnology
  • Pharma

As the end of the year approaches, the savvy equity investor begins to optimize their equity portfolio for tax purposes. During this time, investors are particularly keen to review their investments and make strategic adjustments to minimize the tax burden. This approach, often referred to as "tax-loss harvesting" or "loss offsetting", involves the clever realization of losses in order to reduce capital gains tax due on profits made in the same year. This means that shares that have not performed so well over the course of the year are often sold off again in December. In the new year, the selling pressure disappears, and the shares can start their rebound. Today, we are looking at three potential candidates.

Returns beckon here: The Biotech favorites for 2024! BioNTech, Pfizer, Cardiol Therapeutics and MorphoSys in focus

  • Biotechnology

The past year was a disaster for investors in the Biotech sector - no golden check as often seen before. Despite all the gloom, the key indicator, the Nasdaq Biotechnology Index (NBI), has managed an annual gain of around 7% since the end of October, thanks to a fabulous 15% upswing. The index was temporarily down 12%. High capital costs made it difficult for research-based companies to refinance, and it is only now, with falling inflation rates, that interest rate hopes are reviving. The 10-year yield in the US fell by more than 100 basis points from 4.98% to 3.84% in a short space of time. Now, the industry senses a positive outlook again. At the end of the year, the positive environment helped some Biotech stocks shake off the negative trend and initiate a turnaround. Which stocks should we focus on?

Liquidia, Cardiol Therapeutics, Bristol-Myers Squibb, Pfizer - Analysts comment on their favorites

  • Biotechnology

The NASDAQ Biotechnology Index has been in the green since the beginning of the year with a mini gain of 1%, but the rebound since the lows at the end of October gives hope for a much more positive stock market year 2024 for the capital-intensive sector. In addition to the multiple interest rate hikes by the central banks, the biotech sector has been weighed down, in particular, by slower progress in research and development. With the expected start of a cycle of interest rate cuts, financing and capital costs are falling, which could lead to rising prices.

Shares for 2024: TUI in travel boom, Pfizer with monster dividend, Almonty Industries receives millions from Germany

Three shares from three different sectors and countries: TUI, Pfizer, and Almonty Industries. Are they among the top performers in 2024? At least there are good reasons for a turnaround in all of them. At TUI, the turnaround seems to have already begun. Will it continue? Almonty Industries is facing a decisive year. With the help of Germany's KfW, a massive tungsten mine in South Korea is set to go into operation in 2024. If this succeeds, turnover and profits will likely multiply in the coming years. Like so many Corona winners, Pfizer shares have suffered withdrawal symptoms this year. Will the pharmaceutical giant get back on track in 2024 after hitting a ten-year low? In any case, the dividend yield of 6% is attractive.
