Bayer, Defence Therapeutics, Morphosys - Biotech sector still on the upswing
The market is currently in an exceptional phase in the biotechnology sector. Following the record year of 2023, the number of M&A transactions continues to increase in the current year. The reason is clear. Many pharmaceutical giants are under pressure due to the expiration of many patents for high-revenue drugs. On the other hand, smaller, innovative companies are trading at attractive valuation levels following the corrections of recent years. In previous transactions, the acquirers paid significantly more than the current market value.

Demo against the right, overtake the left with these stocks! PayPal, Saturn Oil + Gas, Evotec and Bayer
Millions of people are on the streets, demonstrating for democracy. However, democracy also means pluralism, tolerance and fair discourse. It remains to be seen whether the politicians currently in power will eventually embrace these principles. The stock market is also a mass phenomenon, with many things developing in the same direction without much reflection. The herd instinct has both good and bad sides; on the capital markets, it often leads to irrational hype movements, as seen recently in the artificial intelligence sector. This technology is not an economic panacea either, as the elimination of jobs through the use of learning machines leads to less growth at the end of the day. As in all things, we need to use our heads, especially when it comes to the white knights of our future. Where are the opportunities for investors?

More than 100% upside potential - Buy recommendations for BASF, Evotec and Saturn Oil + Gas
After the price slide of recent weeks, Evotec shares appear to be ripe for a countermovement. In a conference call, the Company attempted to provide clarification and seems to have convinced analysts. Expert opinions on BASF are divided. Has the bottom been reached after the preliminary figures? At least the dividend yield of 8% is attractive. Investors are also anticipating a high dividend from Saturn Oil & Gas soon. Analysts see more than 100% upside potential in the shares of the junior oil producer. The valuation is significantly lower than the peer group. The Canadian company will significantly reduce its debt in the current year, making the share increasingly attractive in terms of free cash flow and enterprise value. The latest drilling program has also produced strong results.

Morphosys on the verge of a short squeeze? Evotec share drops like a stone! Almonty Industries is exciting!
Share price disaster at Evotec. The shares of the German biotech company are falling like a stone in 2024 and have already lost over 30% of their value in just a few trading days. This results from the CEO's surprising resignation and delayed reports of insider transactions. "Manager-Magazin" added fuel to the fire with an article. Morphosys, on the other hand, is taking off. The blood cancer drug Pelabresib is causing speculation and price swings. Could there even be a short squeeze? The Almonty Industries share is also exciting at the moment. The shares of the raw materials company, which focuses on tungsten, appear to have bottomed out and are starting an upward trend. Operationally, Almonty is facing exciting times. Analysts expect the tungsten producer to more than triple its turnover between 2023 and 2025. Given the expected profit in the coming year, the share is anything but expensive.

Biotech: Corona is back! The doublers are lurking here: BioNTech, Evotec, Defence Therapeutics and Bayer
We had almost forgotten about Corona and the good old flu, but it is back in full swing. Governments are remaining calm and holding on to their regained liberalism. However, Spain is now resorting to drastic measures again to protect vulnerable population groups. A mask is to be compulsory again in all Spanish healthcare facilities due to the increase in respiratory diseases. Health Minister Mónica García had previously failed to convince the Spanish regions of the need to introduce compulsory masks of their own accord. In some parts of the country, hospital emergency rooms are under severe pressure due to high patient numbers. Biotech stocks are showing the first signs of recovery after the sell-off in 2023. We take a look at a few selected stocks with 100% potential.

Bayer with a blockbuster! Vonovia weak! And how are Desert Gold shares doing?
While the DAX, Dow & Co. started the new year weakly, Bayer shares are holding up surprisingly well and can maintain the price gains from the end of 2023. The share price is being supported by positive news. A new blockbuster is waiting in the wings. Vonovia shares, on the other hand, are suffering from profit-taking, although analysts see further upside potential. Is concrete gold celebrating a comeback? And what about real gold? The price has weakened recently, but analysts believe USD 2,200 per ounce is possible, and central banks continue buying heavily. This should benefit not only the major gold producers but also low-cost explorers such as Desert Gold.

Bayer, Defence Therapeutics, Pfizer - Buckle up for the rebound
As the end of the year approaches, the savvy equity investor begins to optimize their equity portfolio for tax purposes. During this time, investors are particularly keen to review their investments and make strategic adjustments to minimize the tax burden. This approach, often referred to as "tax-loss harvesting" or "loss offsetting", involves the clever realization of losses in order to reduce capital gains tax due on profits made in the same year. This means that shares that have not performed so well over the course of the year are often sold off again in December. In the new year, the selling pressure disappears, and the shares can start their rebound. Today, we are looking at three potential candidates.

Morphosys with 50% risk? BioNTech and Defence Therapeutics share with positive news
Will the Morphosys share price halve? Analysts believe this is possible, although the German biotech veteran has been one of the winners in the sector this year. Overall, biotech shares were not among the favorites of investors in 2023. Nevertheless, the billion-dollar takeover of Karuna Therapeutics by Bristol-Myers Squibb announced yesterday gives the sector hope for a better performance in 2024. Today, we are focusing on three companies of different sizes, including Morphosys and Defence Therapeutics. The biotech company with a focus on immuno-oncology is closing the year with further positive news. The FDA has given the green light for the start of trials next year, which could open up a market worth billions. BioNTech has several pieces of positive news. Here, too, the FDA has made a positive statement, and the Company has achieved a milestone victory against CureVac.

TUI, Saturn Oil + Gas, Bayer - Find the 2024 doubler before the end of the year
The indices are close to their all-time highs, and at the end of the year, investors are starting to adjust their portfolios to optimize their taxes. If you still want to find stocks that have the potential to double, you have to look at the stocks that have not performed so well this year. The stock market moves in cycles, and what was not in vogue this year may be in again next year. The most important thing is that the companies you want to invest in are earning money and have learned from the problems that have put the share price under pressure. We take a look at three promising candidates.
