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.

BioNTech, Defence Therapeutics, Nordex: Investors must pay attention here!

The famous German scientists' statement revolved around further projects for BioNTech and the fight against cancer. At the same time, BioNTech's stock, like many other pandemic winners, dropped. What does this mean for investors now?

BioNTech, Cardiol Therapeutics, Netflix - The return to normality
The outbreak of the Corona pandemic triggered gold-rush sentiment among many companies. In addition to vaccine manufacturers such as BioNTech and Moderna, stocks whose technology supported the mandated measures also multiplied. Whether shopping, school, work or even sports, one could suddenly do everything simply in front of a screen. However, after the restrictions and limitations, society longs for normal life to return. These developments can be seen clearly in the share charts and the most recently presented figures.

Evotec, Defence Therapeutics, Formycon - Who will benefit from Omicron?
The Coronavirus has shown that without biotechnology and ongoing research, we are relatively defenseless against the whims of nature. What would have happened if novel technology had not been available to produce potent vaccines in a very short time? Would our intensive care units have been as crowded as they were in Italy at the beginning of the pandemic? Would hospital triage be the norm today? No one can say for sure, but history has shown how epidemics - such as the Spanish flu - have claimed many lives in the past.

Valneva, XPhyto, BioNTech - This is the breakthrough
The shares of vaccine manufacturers are currently experiencing a rollercoaster ride. While BioNTech, Pfizer and Moderna vaccines, based on mRNA technology, continue to reduce their incredible stock market valuation, Valneva, the manufacturer of an inactivated vaccine, has made a brilliant comeback on the stock market floor. The reasons for the good mood were positive data regarding the neutralization of the Omicron variant, which pushed the share up by more than 30% after trading hours.
