New developments in the healthcare market: Cardiol Therapeutics, Amazon and Bayer shares in focus

  • Biotechnology
  • Pharma
  • Healthcare

Cardiol Therapeutics, a clinical-stage life sciences company focusing on therapies for heart inflammation, has secured a renowned clinic to advance its Phase II MAvERIC-Pilot study. This study, focused on combating recurrent pericarditis, promises to provide sound approaches to improve the quality of life of affected patients. Amazon has been dabbling in the healthcare sector since 2015 and is gradually conquering the telemedicine market. The path to telemedicine for Prime members, through the acquisition of companies such as "One Medical" and "PillPack", poses challenges. In contrast, Bayer is once again caught in the crossfire of legal disputes. The recent glyphosate trial loss before a jury in Philadelphia calls for a strategic realignment. At the same time, Bayer is attempting to provide new impetus in the area of women's health through a partnership in the field of hormonal contraception. Find out which development holds promise here.

  • defense
  • Healthcare

In Germany, the federal government put its spending on hold, a day after the Federal Constitutional Court ruled that the reallocation of EUR 60 billion of unused debt from the pandemic era to the Energy and Climate Fund was unlawful. Europe's largest economy is shrinking due to rising energy prices and trade tensions. At the same time, North America, with stable oil companies such as Saturn Oil & Gas, presents an attractive investment opportunity for investors. Rheinmetall is experiencing a target price high of EUR 370 and flirting with long-term prospects in the US. At the same time, Bayer grapples with legal challenges and the failure of the blood thinner 'asundexian'. We look at where an investment may be worthwhile now.

Telemedicine is a blessing for anyone lying in bed with a fever and in need of a doctor or medication. Now, 167 million Americans can benefit from it. Amazon rolled out the telemedicine service to all Prime members in the States this week. To ensure that deliveries arrive on time and with as few emissions as possible, First Hydrogen has developed a van that has already successfully passed its test phase in the UK. A range of 630 km can be covered on one hydrogen charge. But that is not all; the Company is planning much more in the field of hydrogen. After sobering figures, Bayer AG is focusing on drastic measures instead of innovations, but these will benefit those who truly do their job. We take a glance at the details.

Cantourage Group SE, Amazon, British American Tobacco: Stockpiling between medical innovation and dividend history

  • Cannabis
  • Healthcare
  • AI

The Berlin-based company Cantourage, which specializes in the distribution of medical cannabis, is experiencing promising growth in the booming medical cannabis market. The global market for the plant's medical use is expected to have reached around USD 12.92 billion since 2021 and is projected to grow to USD 23.97 billion by 2028 at an average CAGR of 13.16%. Cantourage continues to expand its strong international distribution network with its innovative Fast Track Access platform. The Company even has a chance to win in the "Most Innovative Business Strategy" category at the 2023 European Small and Midcap Awards in November. Unlike other medical cannabis producers, Cantourage does not grow its own plants. Just as Uber doesn't own cars and AirBnB doesn't own hotels, Cantourage relies on strong distribution power in Healthcare. Healthcare is also attractive to Amazon again. Through mergers and acquisitions involving an online pharmacy and a thriving network of doctors, the US company is now investing in generative AI beyond ChatGPT. Meanwhile, historic dividend king British American Tobacco faces decline and bans.

Manuka Resources, Fresenius, Amazon - Gold to offset economic dismantling and restriction measures?

For decades, the annual production of gold has been increasing. In 2020, a total of 3200 tonnes of gold was produced, with China as the largest gold producer in the world, followed by Australia and Russia. Manuka Resources is an explorer and gold producer in Australia. The Company has now developed a 3-year gold production plan to give its shareholders the most value possible. A solid precious metal like gold can provide balance in turbulent times. Fresenius, for example, is in the midst of a turnaround and is reporting its first results. Things can get tight for Amazon, Microsoft and Alphabet if the EU enforces its new cybersecurity directives - but this can also turn out to be an advantage.

Cardiol Therapeutics, Apple, Nel - Crisis-proof shares, despite inflation

  • Biotechnology
  • Covid19
  • Health

Heart fluttering, pulse racing among investors, share prices highly volatile due to FED measures. Inflation and recessionary times are brutal for investors in the capital market. Three candidates have the potential to become profitable long-term investments: Cardiol Therapeutics, Apple and Nel. Cardiol Therapeutics fills the gap in the pharmaceutical market for the treatment of the heart disease, myocarditis. Apple is increasingly focusing on monitoring heart health, as cardiovascular disease is one of the leading causes of death in industrialized nations. In turn, these nations are struggling with extremely high energy prices. No wonder, then, that the Norwegian government is financially supporting the Company Nel to produce green hydrogen as quickly as possible...

BioNTech, NervGen, Sanofi - The rebound is on the way

  • Biotechnology

Uncertainties remain. Admittedly, infection figures are falling in the Corona pandemic and should ensure a quiet summer in this respect. In addition to inflation remaining at a high level, the Ukraine conflict moved to the front news pages. It has caused panic and strong sales on the stock markets in recent weeks. After the DAX marked another interim low at around 13,500 points yesterday, the stock market barometer turned around but is struggling with the psychologically important mark at 14,000 points. Now the quarterly season has begun, which could provide positive impetus. Commerzbank and Deutsche Bank started it off and were quite convincing.
