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.

Bayer, BioNTech, Defence Therapeutics: The new biotech reality opens up opportunities
The pharmaceutical sector is exempt from US tariffs. But does that mean everything will be okay for the industry? During the German Biotech Days in Heidelberg, which took place last week, market experts were cautious. Following the layoffs at the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA), there are concerns among pharmaceutical companies and biotech firms that the US could lose its leading position in research and development. According to the researchers at the conference, Europe could step into the breach under certain conditions – however, partnerships with other regions remain crucial for continued progress.

Growth despite tariffs: It is all about using artificial intelligence! Novo Nordisk, NetraMark Holdings, Infineon, and Intel
The tariff policy of the Trump administration is casting a long shadow over the global economy, with ifo Institute President Clemens Fuest warning it could even trigger a new global recession. Only a handful of companies can currently afford to relax - those that manufacture entirely within the US and serve mainly domestic markets. However, the economy is highly interconnected, the recently favored globalization has ensured that. The wheel is currently turning backwards, and "local sourcing" is the new buzzword. History has shown that protectionism rarely leads to positive outcomes. It is important for investors to look closely at which policymakers truly have an understanding of economic issues without ideological distortions. Identifying these trends can lead to discovering high-potential stocks. The search is not easy, but we are here to provide support wherever possible.

Trump rally boosts Vidac Pharma: Further milestones in cancer research achieved!
Humanity continues to fight relentlessly against cancer. As one of the most common causes of death, researchers have been trying to unravel the secrets of this terrible disease for more than 175 years. Meanwhile, early detection and forms of therapy have come a long way, and many patients diagnosed with cancer often go on to live for many years after their diagnosis. However, it is still too early for triumph; progress is incremental and costs time and money. The dream of biotech investors is to find the needle in the haystack. Which publicly listed company will achieve the long-awaited breakthrough? Vidac Pharma has so far achieved recognized milestones and continues its research in a targeted manner. According to a recent study on the Company, investors could see a tenfold increase over the next few years. This is reason enough for us to take a closer look!

A buying opportunity in the price horror? Novo Nordisk, BioNTech, and Defence Therapeutics!
For Novo Nordisk shareholders, who have been spoiled by price gains, the current nightmare shows no sign of ending. The notion that pharmaceutical stocks are a safe haven in turbulent times is only partially true at the moment. Novo Nordisk shares are trading at their lowest level since 2022. A buying opportunity? Yes, analysts believe, but the Trump-induced chaos is not going away anytime soon. For those looking to invest in relative strength, there is currently no getting around Defence Therapeutics. The biotech company is not affected by tariff disputes and is taking big steps towards monetization. Yesterday, there was a strong price jump. Is a takeover coming soon? For example, BioNTech has full coffers and, as the latest IPO shows, is keen to invest in companies in the oncology sector.
