Biogen, Cardiol Therapeutics, Evotec - Brilliant results
The reporting season for the third quarter is in full swing and is creating a thoroughly positive mood. For example, the software group SAP posted surprisingly strong growth in its cloud business in the third quarter, and its operating result was better than forecast. Positive signals are also coming from the biotech sector, which has been badly battered in recent months. After the horrendous share price losses, this sector, in particular, offers attractive long-term entry levels.

BioNTech, Defence Therapeutics, MorphoSys - The rebound is on the way
The biotech sector is a growth market and, therefore, extremely capital-intensive. Due to the stricter monetary policy of the central banks, investors have given the promising sector the cold shoulder in recent months. Sector indices lost around 30% of their value, while the prices of individual stocks with a full development pipeline halved. The fact that several promising long-term companies are already trading below their cash levels shows that the panic is exaggerated. There are signs of a bottoming out, which could herald the next upward wave.

Core One Labs, XPhyto, BioNTech - The second biotech series moves forward
The enormously rapid development of the various COVID vaccines by historical standards showed how important biotechnology already is for humanity. Previously unknown companies such as BioNTech, Valneva and CureVac took center stage on the stock market and were able to multiply their share prices within a few months. Even after the pandemic, the biotech wheel continues to turn. Enormous growth opportunities are said to exist in the market for psychedelic drugs. Here, young growth companies are waiting in the wings with the potential to multiply their share prices in the future.

Biotech funds looking over their shoulders: Bavarian Nordic, Cardiol Therapeutics, Valneva
A recent study by Accenture shows that consumers are not willing to reduce their spending on health and wellness - even if things are not going well economically. Despite uncertainties, respondents see spending in the areas of "health" and "fitness" as "essential." Those who pay for these areas are also likely to want to exhaust all options when it comes to health insurance benefits, such as medications and vaccines. Informed patients and consumers put pressure on their doctors when new therapies are available. Health insurers, who are also in competition with each other, are taking this into account. We highlight three biotech stocks and do the investment check.

The problem solvers: Plug Power, BioNTech, Almonty Industries
Rarely have there been as many global crises and challenges as there are right now. In addition to the war in Ukraine, there is Corona, an arguably inevitable recession, and the energy crisis - not to mention long-standing challenges such as the fight against cancer and climate change. Companies want to help solve these problems, and BioNTech is one of these companies. The Wiesbaden-based Company was not only successful in the fight against COVID-19. They are currently taking on cancer. And the CEO has recently been very positive. Almonty Industries wants to help reduce dependence on raw materials from China and Russia, and one Company has already given it long-term purchase guarantees. And Plug Power wants to help solve the energy crisis and fight climate change. The recent numbers have disappointed, but analysts see upside potential. We look at the current performance of the three problem solvers.

Defence Therapeutics, Commerzbank - Like BioNTech in March 2020?
After price shocks and recession fears, the pandemic has also been back in the public eye since last week. German Health Minister Karl Lauterbach presented the vaccination strategy for the fall - and warned of an autumn wave. On the markets, the pandemic should be over, with a few exceptions. But Corona and BioNTech are suitable blueprints for other companies. We explain where else a special boom could occur and where investors are better off being cautious.

Attention, turnaround: Bayer, BioNTech, Defence Therapeutics, MorphoSys - These biotech stocks are way down!
Even though more people are being diagnosed with cancer today, and the disease remains the leading cause of death, the number of people dying from cancer is trending downward. In recent years, respectively, survival rates have been steadily increasing. The relative proportion of survivors based on all cancer types in the US has increased from 50% to more than 67% over the past two decades, so today, two out of three patients with a serious disease are still alive after five years. In Europe, too, there has been an increase in 5-year survival rates for the most common cancer types. This is encouraging and draws attention to the oncology sector. Which biotech stocks are significant here and offer a good entry point?

TUI share soon to be a penny stock? BASF, BioNTech, Cardiol Therapeutics - buy or sell?
Buy or sell? It is not only the BASF share that is currently the subject of clearly differing opinions. While the gas price brake plans on Monday caused euphoria among investors and correspondingly rising prices for the shares of the chemical company, analysts from Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley continue to express pessimism. Experts are similarly cautious about the prospects for TUI. UBS even sees the share of the tourism group on the way to becoming a penny stock. Analysts are more optimistic about BioNTech, but the share is not making any headway at the moment. In contrast, experts see massive upside potential in the biotech gem Cardiol Therapeutics. Cash is now equal to market capitalization, and drug development is making progress.

Biotech in the scope: BioNTech, XPhyto Therapeutics, MorphoSys, Valneva - The cards are reshuffled!
Cancer remains one of the greatest afflictions of our time, along with cardiovascular disease. Despite the tremendous progress already made in the fight against cancer, there remains an unmet medical need for many types of cancer. Cancer was responsible for nearly 10 million deaths worldwide in 2020. Other diseases, such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, also continue to be the focus of research. How is the biotech industry faring after the pandemic and during the stock market storm?

BioNTech, Fonterelli GmbH & Co KGaA, Fonterelli SPAC 2 AG, MorphoSys - Bullish forecasts
The capital-intensive biotech and pharma sector has been stuck in a correction since the central banks changed their strategy at the beginning of the stock market year. In particular, vaccine manufacturers, which have exploded since the outbreak of COVID-19, have lost disproportionately in value since their highs in August of last year. However, the pandemic is likely to be with us for the next few years, albeit in a weakened form. The development of new drugs benefits companies that could now face a similar path as the vaccine producers.
