SYNLAB, XPhyto, Novavax - How long will the Corona boom last?
Corona has been turning the world upside down for two years. Although the stock markets have largely recovered from their crash in February and March 2020 and are clearly up again, some stocks are still doing much better, thanks to Corona. For example, shares of companies involved in developing and producing Corona vaccines, medicines, or testing methods have significantly outperformed the indices. But how sustainable is this boom?

BioNTech, Moderna, Valneva, Cardiol Therapeutics: The gold rush is over!
The mild progression of the Omicron variant and the associated massive relaxations of the Corona measures in many countries weighs heavily on the prospects of the vaccine manufacturers. That is because the winter is drawing to a close, clinical shortages are not occurring, and vaccination rates do not want to increase despite massive public campaigns. Meanwhile, even those in power realize that enforcing a general vaccination requirement could become a hot legal ride under the current circumstances. For the biotech sector and vaccine producers, in particular, this is a reason for profit-taking for the time being. Here are a few further ideas.

Valneva, Cardiol Therapeutics, Pfizer - Great opportunities after setbacks
First, vaccine maker stocks were pushed down by fears of a pandemic ending by the Omicron variant. Add to that a nervous and challenging market environment that has to deal with interest rate hikes and inflation. Late last week, news that Russia's invasion of Ukraine was imminent added further worry lines. All of this is weighing on the markets, but these setbacks also offer investors opportunities. Today, we analyze three turnaround candidates in more detail.

BioNTech, XPhyto, Steinhoff - Explosives for the stock markets
The situation on the stock markets remains tense. Due to the persistently high inflation figures, voices are becoming increasingly louder, calling for far more than the originally planned 3 interest rate hikes by the FED for this year. The ECB should also not be long in finally abandoning its ultra-loose monetary policy. And to make matters worse, the situation in Ukraine is threatening to escalate. The US already reacted to the tense situation and withdrew embassy staff from the Ukrainian capital Kiev.

BioNTech, Cardiol Therapeutics, Peloton: Future check on pandemic stocks

MorphoSys, Defence Therapeutics, Valneva, CureVac - Find the bio blockbuster!
The biotech sector is a highly dynamic growth market within the equity universe. It is characterized by investment volumes of unprecedented size, which is also the reason for the high innovation rate characteristic of the sector. Price reactions to positive or negative surprises can be very volatile, and these tendencies are often exacerbated by the intervention of stop orders or the occurrence of derivative slippage. Vaccine manufacturers were down over 50% across the board, as the pandemic is being traded as a phase-out. The vaccination rate does not appear to be increasing significantly. Where are the opportunities for investors at the moment?

BioNTech, Barsele Minerals, Pfizer - Markets facing a turnaround
The vaccination pace in Germany continues to decline. According to experts, the Omicron variant could be the end of the pandemic and the change to an endemic. Is this why we have already seen the highs in vaccine manufacturers? With the FED's plan to raise interest rates in several steps, technology stocks corrected sharply, while new life was breathed into shares from the financial services sector. Companies in the gold sector should also be in strong demand over the long term because one thing is certain, even if the pandemic goes away, government debt will remain.

Novavax, XPhyto Therapeutics, BioNTech, Valneva - The vaccine blockbusters are on the move again!
It is on again with the vaccine producers. Experts consider the pandemic to be over by the summer of 2022, but vaccination rates are still low, and infection figures are rushing from record to record. Meanwhile, mandatory vaccination by law is also a daily topic of discussion, dividing society into at least two camps. According to the thinking of those currently taking action, the right to freedom of bodily integrity probably ceases when third parties could suffer a disadvantage as a result of one's own decision. It's so easy to knit laws under the postulate of "protection & general welfare," and the individual right to liberty under the Basic Law is thus unceremoniously nullified. After all, members of parliament are supposed to be able to vote without factional coercion. We evaluate the chances of the well-known biotech protagonists!

BioNTech, Defence Therapeutics, Mainz Biomed - After Corona, cancer is the next hype
The euphoria surrounding vaccine manufacturers has come to an end. The majority of investors believe that the end of the pandemic is near with Omicron. More and more states are abandoning restrictions and slowly returning to normalcy. If that happens, one of the biggest hypes of the last decade will come to an end. The pharmaceutical and biotech industries have earned very well from it. After the hype is before the hype. The next big story is cancer, and there are more and more cancer cases, so fighting the disease is a lucrative business. A lot is happening in this area, so we are looking at three companies today.

Valneva, XPhyto, Peloton Interactive: What is next for pandemic stocks?

In the meantime, almost everyone knows someone who has fallen ill; as a rule, the scare is over quickly for those who have been vaccinated. In this article, we look at what this means for the stock market.
