Evotec, Vidac Pharma, BioNTech – Cancer research: The gold mine in the portfolio
Investing in publicly traded companies active in oncology research offers promising returns and long-term stability. The oncology market is one of the fastest-growing sectors in healthcare and benefits from an ever-increasing demand for innovative and personalized cancer therapies. Advances such as CAR-T cell therapies and antibody-drug conjugates are revolutionizing treatment options and creating new opportunities for companies and investors. At the same time, the sector is characterized by a low dependence on economic fluctuations and a high level of dynamism in mergers and acquisitions. With long-term trends such as an aging population, this market offers solid prospects for investors. We take a look at three promising companies.

PRICE SURGE or SELL-OFF: Buy BioNTech? Is Evotec on the verge of a slump? BioNxt Solutions share on the brink of a breakout?
Price opportunity with BioNxt! If the innovative biotech stock breaks out of its sideways movement since September, a quick 50% gain could be possible. In any case, things are going well operationally. The Company is developing next-generation drug delivery systems. The Evotec share is not for the faint-hearted. After the price jump following the takeover offer, a sharp drop followed. Analysts see the fair value of the biotech company well below the current price. Will takeover speculation continue? The BioNTech share has avoided slipping below EUR 100. Analysts view the data on the breast cancer candidate positively and recommend buying.

Biotech in focus! The 2025 blockbusters: Pfizer, BioNTech, Nyxoah, Valneva or Evotec - Who will take off?
The Q3 figures have now been processed. In the shadow of the tech giants on the Nasdaq, biotech stocks are currently being neglected. However, it is important to note that as pressure on the international economies increases, so does the likelihood of interest rate cuts by the central banks. Many investors have been underweight in biotech for quarters, prioritizing other sectors. All of this could be reversed in 2025. An early positioning with the most important protagonists seems promising. We are picking the best opportunities for you from the "Advent calendar."

Takeovers – The 200% opportunities for 2025! Speculate now on the turnaround for Evotec, BioNxt, Bayer and Nel ASA!
The DAX 40 index is going from strength to strength, following the huge wave of buying since the US election. High-tech and defense stocks are leading the charge. Contrary to this positive trend, biotech stocks have so far been ignored. However, since interest rates are likely to be lowered for the foreseeable future due to the weakening economy, the time of the research-intensive life sciences industry will soon return. There are takeover rumors about Evotec. BioNxt is currently undervalued, and Bayer should be among the winners next year after successful restructuring efforts. It is worth taking a closer look.

Bayer, BioNxt Solutions, BioNTech – Patents and acquisitions for market penetration
Three companies in the pharmaceutical industry are pursuing different strategies to strengthen their market position: Bayer is making targeted investments in the Japanese heart medication market and acquiring the rights to a promising active ingredient for treating heart muscle diseases for up to EUR 560 million. BioNxt Solutions is developing an innovative form of medication delivery for drugs to treat the incurable disease of multiple sclerosis - with an absolute focus on patients. The biotech company is thus securing patent protection in key international markets. BioNTech, in turn, is massively expanding into the Asian oncology market with the USD 800 million acquisition of the Chinese company Biotheus. All three companies are expanding their positions in lucrative future markets. Which strategy will be successful?

Takeover battle and soaring profits! Evotec, Bayer, Saturn Oil + Gas
A bombshell announcement came from Evotec late last week. US biotech company Halozyme Therapeutics is offering EUR 11 per Evotec share. Evotec was not informed in advance and seems to be preparing to fend off the takeover. Analysts believe the share price has moved far away from its fundamental value. So, should investors sell the stock now? Experts suggest investors should buy shares of Saturn Oil & Gas. The mid-sized oil producer from Canada is expected to be among the winners under the upcoming Trump administration and will likely soon be paying an attractive dividend. The stock has clear catch-up potential. Meanwhile, analysts are significantly reducing the target price for Bayer. Is there a chance of a turnaround at the agricultural and pharmaceutical giant?

Evotec, Nyxoah, Bayer – A lot of excitement in the healthcare industry
The healthcare sector is currently abuzz with activity. Evotec is the focus of a potential takeover by the US company Halozyme, which has caused the shares of the German biotech company to skyrocket. At the same time, the Belgian medical technology company Nyxoah expects to receive FDA approval soon for its Genio system for the treatment of sleep apnea, which would pave the way for its market entry in the US. Bayer, on the other hand, disappointed with its latest quarterly figures, which showed a significant decline in revenue and EBITDA, leading to a slide in its share price. We take a closer look at these three companies.

Novo Nordisk, BioNxt Solutions, Bavarian Nordic – Opportunities after a horror week
The past trading week was one to forget for the biotech and medtech sectors. With the nomination of the anti-vaccine Robert F. Kennedy as the future US Secretary of Health, stocks such as Moderna, Pfizer and BioNTech lost disproportionately. Even the broadly diversified Nasdaq Biotech Index closed with a weekly loss of over 10%. However, many analysts see the sudden slide as an attractive entry opportunity.

Takeover speculation and momentum: BioNTech, Rheinmetall, Vidac Pharma
BioNTech aims to strengthen its cancer-fighting pipeline by acquiring the Chinese biotech firm Biotheus. The Mainz-based company is laying out up to USD 950 million for the company, which specializes in the development of therapies for cancer and autoimmune diseases. This is the latest example of takeovers in the cancer sector. Vidac Pharma, with a market capitalization of just over EUR 30 million, appears to be favorably valued. Analysts share this view, as Vidac is working on a revolutionary cancer therapy. While Vidac's share price jumped in the second half of the year, Rheinmetall consolidated. Will the defense stock be able to break out with the tailwind from Trump?

The acquisition carousel is gaining momentum! Evotec, Vidac Pharma, BioNTech, and Formycon in focus
The biotech sector is in the spotlight again today. Triton's entry into Evotec means that another deal is in the works, and investors should now take notice. Many still remember MorphoSys, where there were short-term gains of up to 400% at the beginning of the year. Before that, the stock had been trading with high volumes. Will Formycon or Vidac Pharma be next on the list? Formycon is now getting significantly more attention because the stock switched to the Prime Standard. Evotec has once again disappointed operationally, yet the value has increased by a good 50% in just two months. Those who analyze carefully can profit again. A sharp analytical eye is worthwhile.
