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.

New share price horror at Bayer, price explosion at CropEnergies and GoviEx Uranium
CropEnergies shareholders were treated to a real treat yesterday, December 20. The share price rose by almost 70% to EUR 11.50. The parent company, Südzucker, wants to completely take over the biofuel producer. What do analysts say about the deal? Experts remain negative on Bayer. The Leverkusen-based company is one of the weakest DAX shares in 2023 and, according to analysts, could fall further to EUR 25. Are additional fines looming in the US? In contrast, the price of uranium is robust. The Climate Conference in Dubai once again confirmed that many countries worldwide are relying heavily on nuclear energy. The GoviEx Uranium share should benefit from this trend in the coming year. The capital requirement has been covered, and the share has a 30% upside potential in the initial phase.

Shares for 2024: TUI in travel boom, Pfizer with monster dividend, Almonty Industries receives millions from Germany
Three shares from three different sectors and countries: TUI, Pfizer, and Almonty Industries. Are they among the top performers in 2024? At least there are good reasons for a turnaround in all of them. At TUI, the turnaround seems to have already begun. Will it continue? Almonty Industries is facing a decisive year. With the help of Germany's KfW, a massive tungsten mine in South Korea is set to go into operation in 2024. If this succeeds, turnover and profits will likely multiply in the coming years. Like so many Corona winners, Pfizer shares have suffered withdrawal symptoms this year. Will the pharmaceutical giant get back on track in 2024 after hitting a ten-year low? In any case, the dividend yield of 6% is attractive.

Several 100% upside potential? BioNTech, Bayer, Cardiol Therapeutics and Evotec in analyst check
We take a look at analysts' opinions on biotech and pharmaceutical stocks. Jefferies recently renewed its "Buy" recommendation for Evotec with a target price of EUR 34. The latest partnerships confirm that the Company's unique business model is working. The situation at Bayer is quite different. While the CEO is announcing radical changes, analysts are slashing their price targets, in some cases significantly. In contrast, analysts believe that Cardiol Therapeutics could achieve several 100% gains. The cash register is full to bursting, and an exciting news flow can be expected in 2024. At BioNTech, only the cash position is currently convincing. However, this is not enough for a buy recommendation.

BioNTech, Defence Therapeutics, Bayer - Golden times for the biotech and pharma industry?
With the arrival of winter, people are increasingly worried about illnesses such as coronavirus and influenza. The current wave of diseases and the new coronavirus variant are increasing the demand for medicines, which could positively impact the shares of pharmaceutical and biotech companies. Biotech's success in drug development for COVID-19 vaccines has allowed the industry to flourish over the past two years. But after the boom came the crash. However, the stock market always moves in cycles. The current challenges in the healthcare sector, such as the rising number of cancer cases, could, therefore, mean golden times for pharmaceutical and biotech companies, as they not only contribute to improving global health but also offer attractive returns for investors.

Which stocks are leading the fight against cancer and chronic diseases? Defence Therapeutics, Merck and BioNTech
The pharmaceutical industry is facing complex developments in the fight against cancer, with Defence Therapeutics making significant progress with the successful FDA filing for its drug for the targeted treatment of tumors. The growing market opportunities in oncology until 2032 underline the potential of this breakthrough. In contrast, Merck KGaA is experiencing a severe setback with an 11% share price decline following the failure of evobrutinib for the relief of MS in late-stage clinical trials. According to analysts, this also impacts the Company's valuation. Despite promising cancer-fighting approaches, BioNTech faces uncertainties due to a reduced revenue forecast for 2023 and an 'Underweight' rating from JP Morgan. Despite these challenges, the sector remains dynamic. Find out which shares could be worthwhile in the long term here.

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.

Biotech Alert! Morphosys, Bayer, BioNTech and Defence Therapeutics
Morphosys is not for the faint-hearted. After unclear study results, the stock gave up its annual gains within a few days. Analysts are also divided on what the future holds. On December 10, the study details will be released, hopefully shedding light on the situation. Bayer shareholders are currently seeing dark clouds. The stock plummeted from EUR 40 to EUR 30 in a short time. Is the dividend now at risk, or is the entire company in jeopardy? There is a slew of positive news for Defence Therapeutics. Can the stock break out of its sideways trend? A potential partner for the Canadians could be BioNTech. The German biotech favourite is working with full coffers on cancer vaccines. However, analysts remain cautious.
