Analysts at Deutsche Bank hiked their target price for AstraZeneca shares from 10,500.0p to 11,500.0p, telling clients it saw no reason to tilt towards so-called 'value' names in the space and away from 'growth'.

Deutsche Bank conceded that an environment of rising interest rates would normally hardly be seen as auguring positively for a defensive sector to outperform.

However, DB highlighted that these weren't exactly normal times.

"This being a geopolitically-challenged stagflationary-susceptible situation, normal perhaps doesn't apply and indeed pharma has had a strong relative start to the year that may well continue," explained DB.

Within the sector, more highly-valued growth names such as AstraZeneca and Novo Nordisk had been the standout outperformers, versus the likes of GlaxoSmithKline, Novartis or Sanofi.

(MT Newswires) -- AstraZeneca (AZN.L, AZN.ST) said Monday its AZD8233 drug at 50-milligram dose lowered the levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol by 73% among people with high-risk hypercholesterolemia, meeting the main goal of a phase 2b study.

The dose-ranging clinical trial, dubbed Etesia, evaluated AZD8233 at 15 mg, 50 mg and 90 mg doses administered monthly via subcutaneous injection within a 12-week period.

Results showed that the drug also cut the PCSK9 enzyme levels by 89%, with sustained reductions observed over the dosing intervals. A decrease in PCSK9 raises LDL receptor levels, which in turn lowers cholesterol levels in the bloodstream, reducing the risk of developing heart disease.

The safety, efficacy and tolerability of AZD8233 in hypercholesterolemia are being examined in the Solano phase 2b trial, with results expected later in the year.

AstraZeneca gained nearly 1% on Monday's close.

Mind u, mkts going down after putins demands, so taking profits not a bad thing.

[chc15] 31/3/2022 18:15

No harm in taking profits, but feel there is good momentum here.

[beckers2008] 31/3/2022 15:48

I'm out at £102. This is above quite a few broker PT's so happy to take profits.
Currently way above 20 mda, too high too quickly, will buy back when it settles.
Good Luck all.

[chc15] 31/3/2022 12:22

We surging here, can only mean there is strong institutional buying at this level, wow.
