Core One Labs, BioNxt Solutions, Moderna - Takeover battle in a billion-dollar market
The sharp correction of recent months hit the capital-intensive biotech sector particularly hard. Shares, mainly from the second tier, have, in some cases, had to absorb losses of more than three-quarters of their market value and are trading far below their cash levels. These distortions naturally attract the big players to acquire novel developments at bargain prices.

Where the money is made: BioNTech, Novavax, Cardiol Therapeutics
While the first federal states in Germany are lifting the mask requirement on public transport, suppliers of vaccines and medicines are far from going back to normal. Even corona vaccines are in high demand. While there is a shortage of antipyretics and medication in this country, especially for children, innovative companies are already addressing the next challenges. We explain where investors can make money.

Attention biotech stocks: Bayer, BioNTech, Defence Therapeutics and Morphosys - These stocks look good!
After months of selling off, they are back: biotech stocks! A strong turn on the NASDAQ quickly flushed the beaten-up stocks back to the top of the hit lists. With COVID out of the spotlight, companies are returning to their long-term research lines. These have been heavily focused on cancer in recent years, and now there is even groundbreaking news on metastasis. BioNTech has thus already gained more than 40% since the October low. Morphosys, on the other hand, lost another 40% after an Alzheimer's study failed to deliver valuable results. It is worth taking another look at the sector.

Advances in the fight against cancer: Arcus Biosciences, Gilead Sciences, Defence Therapeutics, BioNTech
Research studies from 2020 show that 72% of Germans fear cancer. However, very few people want to admit to these fears. But precisely because the subject is a big taboo, it is worth looking at the latest achievements in research. Many companies worldwide have long been fighting the epidemic - and making astonishing progress. Just recently, a US biotech announced encouraging study results. Other companies have yet to launch promising studies. We provide an overview and outline opportunities from an investor's perspective.

Biotech stocks in focus: Morphosys, Evotec, Bayer, BioNxt Solutions
Biotech stocks have struggled in 2022. In Germany, BioNTech has overtaken the previous heavyweights Morphosys and Evotec in record time. Morphosys shocked investors with data on its Alzheimer's hope. Analysts lowered their thumbs, and short-sellers discovered the stock for themselves. Evotec has been quiet this year. Analysts think the valuation is attractive, but meeting earnings guidance in the current year is not a given. BioNxt shares have jumped recently, and if the positive newsflow continues into 2023, a re-rating is possible. At Bayer, the pharmaceuticals division is also developing positively. Conclusion: investors should position themselves for the biotech year 2023.

New year, rising prices? BASF, BioNTech and Manuka Resources - Shares in check
As the stock market year 2022 draws to a close, we look ahead to 2023. New year, rising prices? That is what many stock market players are hoping for. The chances are that we will see rising indices again with the end of interest rate hikes in the coming year. Today, we look at three companies likely to attract attention in 2023. At BioNTech, the research pipeline is full to bursting, and there are numerous study results to come. BASF is attractive due to its low valuation and high dividend yield. However, analysts warn of a write-off risk. Manuka Ressources convinces with a profitable core business, and an exciting project in the field of critical raw materials could lead to a revaluation.

Favorable starting positions for Commerzbank, Desert Gold and BioNTech
The suspected downward pressure due to uncertainties in the economy and geopolitics has so far failed to materialize. Instead, the most important stock indices, such as DAX or Dow Jones, were able to leave their short-term downward trends and are sending signals for a further upward push. In addition to the stock market, the precious metals sector was also able to turn around. Here, in particular, entry opportunities beckon at a significantly reduced level with the chance of long-term, disproportionate price gains.

Biotech - Hotter than ever: Catalyst Pharmaceuticals, BioNxt Solutions, Bayer
Biotechs have been providing answers to humanity's most pressing questions for years. Innovative companies are applying advanced methods to make a medical difference. The example of BioNTech is just one success story among many. While companies in the pharmaceutical sector are finding it increasingly difficult to come up with real innovations, biotechs often put all their eggs in one basket - and win. We present two biotech hopefuls and take a look at Bayer.

Morphosys, Defence Therapeutics, Evotec - Stabilization after the sell-off
After the publication of the figures for the third quarter, many biotech companies were able to surprise positively. Due to the partly panic-like sell-off in this capital-intensive sector, there are attractive entry opportunities at a strongly discounted level, which should pay off with disproportionate price gains in the long term. The fact that promising companies are already trading below their cash levels shows that the panic is exaggerated. There are currently signs of a bottoming out, which could herald the next upward wave.

Pfizer, Cardiol Therapeutics, Morphosys - Heart disease and cancer are on the rise!
No sooner is the Coronavirus in retreat than the damage caused by the pandemic measures comes to light. Young men, in particular, are affected by heart inflammation after two vaccinations with the Pfizer or Moderna vaccine. Reason enough for both companies to react to the research results of a small Canadian study with a new study that brought exactly that to light. On the other hand, the increase in myocarditis and pericarditis represents a great opportunity for Cardiol Therapeutics to successfully develop its active ingredient against pericarditis. So far, there is only one treatment available in the US that is purely inpatient, and it is in the five-digit USD range. With Cardiol's active ingredient, it may be possible to contain pericarditis more economically and effectively. Another consequence of the pandemic is an increase in cancer cases. Due to late diagnosis and a lack of access to health care, cancer is becoming a global health problem. Morphosys, still reeling this week from disappointing Alzheimer's trial results, however, has promising drugs in the pipeline.
