Starting signal for a rally? BioNTech, Pfizer, and Bayer under scrutiny, Major news expected from Cardiol Therapeutics and Evotec
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.

Cardiol Therapeutics, Novo Nordisk, Bayer - Pharma stocks in focus
The healthcare sector promises further blockbusters for investors. Cardiol Therapeutics impresses with its promising Phase II study of CardiolRx™ for the treatment of the heart disease pericarditis. The growing market for pericarditis treatments offers the Company great potential, which has also been positively noted by analysts. The Danish company Novo Nordisk is experiencing impressive growth thanks to its GLP-1-based diabetes and obesity drugs. The active ingredient is causing a stir in the celebrity scene as an off-label weight loss injection, further boosting the Company's sales figures. Bayer AG is facing up to its challenges. Despite slight revenue growth in the second quarter of 2024, profits declined. Nevertheless, CEO Bill Anderson believes the Company is on the right track, particularly thanks to progress in the pharmaceutical pipeline. We have three companies in focus.

Siemens Energy tops, Evotec shocks, and what is causing the dynaCERT share to explode?
The Evotec share lost more than 35% yesterday. The share was already trading at a multi-year low before this drop. Investors were particularly shocked by the adjustment to the EBITDA forecast. Additionally, the biotech company indicated that it plans to downsize. This year, Siemens Energy has shown how quickly a difficult situation can be resolved. On the verge of bankruptcy at the end of 2023, it is back on track, although not thanks to renewable energies. In contrast, dynaCERT has yet to see its share price explode. A former Daimler manager will take the helm in the coming days and is expected to secure orders in Europe. Additionally, dynaCERT investors are waiting for VERRA certification.

In the fight against cancer - 100% performance possible: Bayer, Vidac Pharma, Evotec, BioNTech and CureVac
The FED is giving new hope to the Biotech sector with lower interest rates, which are expected to happen as early as September. This is important for the near future, as share prices are lagging dramatically behind the NASDAQ performance in 2024. However, if extensive research can be financed under more favourable conditions, this should also help the stock market prices recover. The business models contain some good news, and selection is now crucial. We assist in selecting attractive stocks and provide entry levels.

Evotec slashed, Bayer sued, and Cardiol Therapeutics share praised
Anyone speculating on a quick rebound for Evotec will be disappointed. At present, one can at most speak of a bottoming out. It is fitting that a renowned analyst has slashed his price target for the German biotech share. Or is it only half as bad? Analysts see massive upside potential for the shares of Cardiol Therapeutics. The share price has more than doubled in the current year and is currently consolidating. There is an exciting entry opportunity now that positive study results have fizzled out on the stock market. Bayer, on the other hand, simply cannot get out of the world's courtrooms. In the US, a new lawsuit has been filed against the Leverkusen-based company; in another case, a multi-million dollar payment must be made.

Viking Therapeutics, Vidac Pharma, Merck KGaA - In the footsteps of Novo Nordisk

Many promising biotechs are already presenting new preparations that could overtake the Danes in the long term. Young companies with the chance of the next blockbuster also have great potential in other areas, such as cancer research.

BioNTech, CureVac, Bayer, Cardiol Therapeutics, and Evotec: Tripled and still in turbo mode?
On the stock market, separating the wheat from the chaff is essential, especially in the biotech sector. This task becomes challenging when ongoing studies conclude, and their results must be interpreted. The market does not always react correctly to announcements, as evidenced by this year's acquisition of MorphoSys. While the stock market rejected the supposedly poor results, Novartis built up the first favourable positions, ultimately acquiring the Munich-based company for EUR 2.7 billion. From a low of around EUR 12, the acquisition price was a high EUR 68, making it a 500% deal. But opportunities are always lurking. Here is a selection of promising candidates.

BioNTech, Bayer, Vidac Pharma: Buy recommendations and potential worth billions
Can BioNTech shares stop the downward trend? A "Buy" recommendation gives hope. According to this recommendation, the shares of the German biotech flagship have the potential to double in value. Analysts believe a multiplication is possible for Vidac Pharma. The biotech company is pursuing a revolutionary approach in the fight against cancer, and the first drug has a revenue potential of over EUR 1 billion. Even though research is still ongoing, Vidac is not expensive with a market capitalization of less than EUR 10 million, and is a takeover candidate if the study data remain positive. Analysts do not currently see any impetus for an increase in Bayer's share price. However, shareholders should be ready for news from the pharmaceutical pipeline in the coming weeks. These are important for the DAX-listed company.
