Buy BioNTech after the crash? Valneva with vaccine problems! Vidac Pharma shares show potential!
BioNTech shares crashed by around 10% on Friday. So far, they have not been able to recover. What caused the setback? Should investors seize the opportunity? Analysts believe the German biotech heavyweight is on track. The same applies to Vidac Pharma. The news flow is extremely positive, but the stock is not making any headway. Analysts believe that Vidac shares could multiply in value. If the biotech company continues to be successful, a takeover could follow. And what is going on at Valneva? The stock is on a rollercoaster ride. Could a vaccine become a problem?

BioNTech, BioNxt, Merck KGaA – Opportunities after the correction
The reporting season for the first quarter of 2025 is underway, and due to US President Donald Trump's tariff hammer, it is more exciting than ever. Investors are likely to focus primarily on forecasts for the rest of the fiscal year. Internet giant Google posted impressive figures last week and is standing firm against looming trade conflicts and antitrust proceedings. Several companies in the biotech sector also had news to report and offer attractive entry opportunities at reduced prices.

US biotechs under pressure – Where opportunities now lie: BioNTech, Pfizer, and Vidac Pharma
The biotech world is in turmoil. The dispute between US President Donald Trump and the elite Harvard University is just the tip of the iceberg – thousands of researchers in the US are upset about the interference in their academic freedom. Research funding is being cut because of supposedly incorrect wording in applications. Entire degree programs are being put on hold because they do not fit into the worldview of the new US administration. The National Security Commission on Emerging Biotechnology (NSCEB) is warning of dire consequences for the US economy. Is the United States losing its status as a biotech mecca?

RENK BEFORE TAKEOVER? Will Evotec and AI gem NetraMark be swallowed up?
Is RENK on the verge of a takeover? In any case, the antitrust authorities have approved the entry of a new major shareholder. Could the takeover of the gearbox manufacturer herald a consolidation in the European defense industry, as announced by the head of Hensoldt? So far, there have only been small acquisitions, such as those of Rheinmetall. There is also movement in the pharmaceutical and biotech sectors. The Trump tariffs are shaking up the industry. NetraMark's AI software helps reduce costs and save time in drug research. The AI insider tip's stock still appears cheap and could skyrocket amid takeover speculation. Evotec has also been repeatedly mentioned as a takeover candidate. Yesterday, a large milestone payment was reported. How are the shares performing?

40% SHARE PRICE EXPLOSION! Commodity war drives Standard Lithium and BMW partner European Lithium! News from Evotec!
Price explosion at Standard Lithium! The share price rose by more than 40% yesterday. The joint venture with Norwegian energy company Equinor has been classified as a "critical mineral project" by the US government. This indicates that the raw materials war with China goes far beyond rare earths. European Lithium has lithium and rare earths to offer. The stock is a real bargain, as illustrated by the new details on the rare earth project in Greenland. Talks are already underway with defense companies from the US and Europe, and analysts see multiplication potential. Evotec shareholders had likely hoped for a somewhat bigger price explosion following the presentation of the new corporate strategy. However, the biotech company is bidding farewell to its strong growth trajectory.

This is the post-Easter opportunity! Evotec, Bayer, BioNTech, and Defence Therapeutics in focus
Donald Trump snubs his international partners, insults prominent Americans, and withdraws long-standing funding commitments to Harvard. Who would have thought? The new US administration is turning out to be an unpredictable fragmentation bomb that could hit anyone. Economic policy resembles a game of hot and cold when stability is needed. On the stock market, investors are trying to price in old tariffs, no tariffs, and new tariffs - every day brings a fresh bouquet of announced measures. There has hardly been a similarly volatile period in recent years, but Donald Trump is not interested in stock market prices. For the overvalued high-tech sector, this is a welcome opportunity to take profits. The biotech sector could finally take off were it not for the sharp rise in interest rates. The only thing that can help now is a case-by-case assessment of investment opportunities.

TSMC, NetraMark, and Siemens Energy defy the crisis
The global economy is faltering. The US president's tariff policy prompted the World Trade Organization (WTO) to drastically cut its forecast for global trade in its latest report. It drastically cut its forecast for global trade in goods and now expects global trade volume to decline by 0.2% in 2025. Several analysts have also lowered their outlook for the S&P 500. While experts' price targets at the beginning of the year were still at 6,600 points, they have now been lowered to an average of 5,950 points. Nevertheless, some companies are able to weather the crisis and at least confirm their annual targets.

Blockbuster or takeover fever? Why Novo Nordisk, Defence Therapeutics, and Pfizer are now attracting attention
The biotech and pharmaceutical industry resembles a billion-dollar chessboard! A single move – whether a takeover or drug approval – can double share prices in a matter of hours or completely reshape entire markets. While investors are still marveling at the spectacular rally of Theratechnologies, which opened with a gap up and then soared another 45% in a single day, or analyzing the Phase-3 explosion at Corcept, the next players are already lining up for the big coup. Because in this arena, it is not just about who develops the next blockbuster but also who buys, sells, or forms strategic alliances. There are three names to have on your radar: Novo Nordisk, Defence Therapeutics, and Pfizer. Each of these companies is pursuing its own master plan.

Takeover speculation! What is going on at Pfizer, Sanofi, and NetraMark
Developing drugs is expensive - so expensive that 22% of all Phase III studies fail due to budget constraints, as shown by scientific studies. When pharmaceutical companies discontinue a late-stage project, it also moves the stock markets. Recently, Pfizer pulled the plug on its weight loss drug, Danuglipron. The reason: a participant in the study experienced liver damage. This further backfires on Pfizer in the important market of obesity drugs, leaving it further behind Viking Therapeutics, Eli Lilly, and Novo Nordisk. To ensure that more drug trials are successful in the future, the publicly listed tech company NetraMark is relying on AI. The first pharmaceutical multinationals have already set their sights on this hidden gem.
