BioNTech, BioNxt Solutions, Bayer - The big one is only a matter of time
The biotech and pharmaceutical industry is currently in a constant state of flux, driven by the introduction of new technologies and the fight against global health problems. Producing medicines and therapies to alleviate diseases is of great value to people's health. Against the backdrop of an ageing population in industrialised nations, the sector will continue to be of great importance. A particular focus is on inventing advanced technologies to fight diseases such as cancer, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. Today we look at three companies in the biotech and pharma sector.

Race against cancer: BioNTech, Bayer, Defence Therapeutics
BioNTech first became known to the general public about three years ago. At that time, the pandemic was rampant and the first vaccine plans were making the rounds in the media. Among all the big names, BioNTech was initially one of many options for the public. In the meantime, the Company has become so dominant in Germany that the competition has been left behind. We look at what this means for investors and the pharmaceutical industry.

Defeat cancer! Defence Therapeutics, BioNTech, Morphosys, Bayer - These biotechs are close
The listed biotechnology sector has entered a strong correction phase since the COVID-19 pandemic mode ended. In the process, sector leader BioNTech suffered a loss of over 70% from its high. Compounding the problem for companies is the significant increase in interest rates for long-term financing. The segment relies on revolving investor capital, but the corresponding risk parameters have been adjusted upward, making some refinancings extremely expensive. Costs are rising, which is leading to renewed price markdowns. However, some companies are convincing through their innovative strength and have recently outperformed the market. We take a closer look at the blockbuster stocks.

Election winners in the fight against cancer! Bayer, Defence Therapeutics, Formycon, Valneva - 300% rises are possible!
In 2021, 18.7 million people received the shocking diagnosis of "cancer". Current trends, unfortunately, suggest that this number will continue to rise in the coming years. Thanks to growing research successes, however, there is hope that biotechnology will make it much more likely that sufferers will survive. It is a matter of developing suitable active substances or launching modern therapies. Recently, mRNA technology has also been making a name for itself in cancer prevention. Innovative biotech companies are back on the radar of risk-conscious investors. Which shares are currently in the spotlight?

Biotech stocks on the verge of a breakout? Evotec, BioNTech, Cardiol Therapeutics
Biotech stocks have largely missed out on the rally of recent weeks. But this could change. Some have interesting chart constellations or a positive news flow. Sooner or later, the stock should then also react with a breakout. After the horror year 2022, Evotec received several positive reports within a few days. The share price has also jumped. At BioNTech, investors are looking away from the COVID-19 vaccine and towards the development pipeline. But, analysts disagree. Are 100% share price gains on the cards? Analysts believe that Cardiol Therapeutics' stock has even more potential than that. Its main product against heart inflammation is already in the Phase II pilot study, and the necessary capital for further development is available. All three shares are recommended as a buy by analysts.

BioNTech, Pfizer, Cardiol Therapeutics, Bayer - Biotech stocks facing a revival?
The BIO Deutschland association represents the German biotech industry. According to an announcement on January 18, financing of biotech companies plummeted by 2/3 in 2022. Overall, the sector raised only EUR 920 million in equity. During the Corona pandemic, many biotech stocks did well. Subsequently, profit-taking occurred and rising interest rates put additional pressure on stocks. That could change in 2023. Meanwhile, some companies are valued low, and so these companies appear on the radar of investors from the United States. According to Handelsblatt, Water Street, an investment company focused on pharma and biotech, has already invested EUR 1 billion, mainly in Germany. A total of EUR 6 billion is to be invested.

Bulging pipeline at BioNTech, Cardiol Therapeutics - what is the problem at Aurora Cannabis?
He who heals is right. It is not quite that simple with active ingredients that are about to be approved. Drugs and vaccines must undergo extensive studies and, last but not least, have to prevail against the existing competition. We look at the pipelines of three hot stocks and venture a forecast: Where is the greatest potential for investors?

Mega biotech rally 2023! Defence Therapeutics, Bayer, BioNTech, Morphosys - Where to put the money?
Who would have thought it? Since the beginning of the year, the stock markets have been jubilant despite difficult predictions about the economic trend in 2023. High inflation and rising interest rates are not a good breeding ground for the popular biotech stocks because they have to constantly refinance their research expenses. As the risk fee is readjusted as costs rise, investors demand higher premiums for providing money. However, some biotech stocks have taken off since the beginning of the year despite adverse conditions. What is their secret?

Powerful movements in the biotech sector - CureVac, Cardiol Therapeutics, Ambrx Biopharma
That the biotech sector stands for high volatility is nothing new. Price jumps of more than 50% in one day after study results are no exception. Last year, the capital-intensive sector of the future suffered from the change in strategy by the central banks with several interest rate hikes. The Nasdaq Biotech Index alone lost around 50% of its value in some cases. In addition, smaller stocks that do not yet have a commercial product on the market experienced massive upheavals. The speed with which a rebound can set in was demonstrated not only by vaccine producer CureVac.

BioNTech, Defence Therapeutics, Bayer - Is a Corona tsunami imminent?
At the beginning of December, things were quiet concerning Corona. The feared wave failed to materialize, and there were no new variants. On December 7, China announced a relaxation of Corona measures. Now the country is facing a gigantic Corona wave. Many European countries have already imposed mandatory testing for entry from China. Germany has now followed suit. In parallel, the Consumer Electronics Show 2023 ran from the 5th to the 8th in Las Vegas, where all kinds of companies from all over the world presented their latest technology. Chinese companies also exhibited there. Because of the multitude of infections, new deadly mutations could emerge. As a result, pharmaceutical and biotech companies are coming back into focus.
