If you are wondering whether Engie is still good value after such a strong run, or if you are turning up late to the party, this breakdown will help you decide whether the current price still makes sense. Engie’s share price has barely moved over the last week (up 0.4%) and month (down 0.3%). However, those quiet short term moves sit on top of a 40.0% gain year to date and a 58.6% rise over the past year, with returns of 110.9% over 3 years and 158.8% over 5 years. Part of this strength...

Sanofi recently reported that its PERSEUS Phase 3 trial found the multiple sclerosis drug tolebrutinib failed to delay disability progression in primary progressive MS, leading the company to stop seeking approval for this indication while the FDA review for non‑relapsing secondary progressive MS is pushed beyond the previously expected December 2025 decision date. At the same time, Sanofi has expanded its presence in rare blood disorders in China with approvals for Qfitlia in hemophilia and...

Airbus (ENXTPA:AIR) has slid about 6% over the past month, even though the stock is still up roughly 20% year to date, a pattern that has many investors rechecking their assumptions. See our latest analysis for Airbus. That recent 6.6% one month share price pullback comes after a strong run driven by double digit revenue and earnings growth, and with a 24.5% one year total shareholder return, momentum looks more paused than broken at this point. If Airbus has you rethinking aerospace...

If you are wondering whether Pluxee is a beaten down opportunity or a value trap at its current price, this is a good place to unpack what the market might be missing. The stock has been choppy lately, up 1.8% over the last week but still down 4.5% over 30 days and roughly 29% lower year to date. This naturally raises questions about whether sentiment has swung too far. Recent coverage has focused on Pluxee's standalone positioning in employee benefits and engagement solutions following its...

Wondering whether STMicroelectronics is a bargain or a value trap at current levels? You are not alone, but we can walk through the numbers in a clear and practical way. After a choppy few years that left the stock down 34.3% over three years and 23.9% over five, the recent 8.4% rise over the last month suggests sentiment might be starting to shift, even though it is still down 7.3% year to date and 8.8% over the past year. Investors have been reacting to a mix of macro signals from the...

ABIVAX Société Anonyme (ENXTPA:ABVX) has just posted its Q3 2025 numbers, with revenue of about €2.0 million and a basic EPS of roughly -€2.10, while trailing 12 month figures sit at €6.8 million in revenue and EPS of around -€4.46. The company has seen revenue hover in a narrow band between about €0.97 million and €2.0 million over the last few quarters, while EPS has remained firmly negative throughout that stretch. This highlights a story driven more by pipeline progress than by near term...

If Eurofins's...

Kepler Cheuvreux recently shifted OPmobility (ENXTPA:OPM) to a buy rating, citing a recovering Lighting division, steadier hybrid car demand, and shrinking losses in new energy activities as key margin drivers. See our latest analysis for OPmobility. The upbeat call comes after a strong run in the shares, with a roughly 54% year to date share price return and a 64% one year total shareholder return. This suggests momentum is clearly building despite a still-muted five year picture. If...

Edenred (ENXTPA:EDEN) just moved deeper into e mobility, teaming up with Daimler Truck to provide the software backbone for Europe focused TruckCharge, a semi public charging network for heavy electric vehicles.

However, the recent 7 day share price...
