Optimism was prevailing in the US stock market on October 11 as investors were hopeful that the Federal Reserve won’t take a hawkish stance for the rest of the year amid rising bond yields that are already tightening the credit conditions in the country. However, latest meeting minutes revealed that the Fed would be open to at least one more interest rate hike. While investors believe the market could end the year on a positive note, 2024 won’t be easy. A detailed market outlook report by Allianz says that the real effects of the Fed’s tightening would be visible next year. The report said that the United States will see GDP growth of just 1.1% in 2024, the slowest rate since 2009. In 2025, the country is expected to see GDP growth rate of 1.7%. The report said:

“Cumulative real wage increases in 2024-25 will not be enough to offset 2022 losses, which should keep wage-price spiral worries under control. Profitability is being squeezed while companies’ cash buffers reduce fast. The most fragile are feeling the pinch of higher interest rates and lower funding availability; more and more corporates, notably in Europe, will need to prepare for the wall of post-Covid debt repayments coming in late 2024-25. The normalization in credit risk is on track as expected and should remain so as we would need to see growth figures almost double to see a stabilization in insolvencies on both sides of the Atlantic. The rise in business insolvencies is broad-based across sectors and countries – with few exceptions in emerging markets (e.g. Russia, China).”

12. Axonics, Inc. (NASDAQ:AXNX)

Baron Discovery Fund made the following comment about Axonics, Inc. (NASDAQ:AXNX) in its Q1 2023 investor letter:

“Axonics, Inc. (NASDAQ:AXNX) offers a novel implantable sacral neuromodulation device for the treatment of urinary and bowel dysfunction. Through an acquisition, it also offers Bulkamid, a unique injectable product to treat stress urinary incontinence (SUI) in women. Shares declined somewhat during the quarter. There wasn’t any particular negative catalyst. We retain conviction as Axonics’ product is unique and its current revenue run rate of $650 million to $700 million, represents less than 1% penetration of its addressable market (45,000 current procedures versus a market with close to 7 million addressable patients). Axonics thinks the implantable neuromodulation market can double in three to five years. Bulkamid has a current addressable market of $125 million, representing the 125,000 implantable sling procedures done every year in the U.S. However, with 29 million women affected by SUI, the market could be worth many multiples of that level, particularly as Bulkamid is a 15 minute in-office procedure with almost no side effects. We believe that this is realistic, given that the product’s current run rate already represents about half of the currently addressable market.”

“During the second quarter, we also added to our position in EV manufacturer Rivian Automotive, Inc. (NASDAQ:RIVN). After a complex period since the company’s IPO, in which Rivian tried to ramp multiple vehicles simultaneously while struggling to overcome unprecedented supply-chain bottlenecks, the company seems to have turned the corner. Production is now starting to scale up, which should help the company improve its plant utilization and subsequently help gross margins. The company is making notable progress in cost improvements by renegotiating with its suppliers, utilizing its larger scale to get better pricing, as well as, incorporating various technological advancements that would improve its cost structure while also improving the vehicles’ performance (for example it’s Enduro drive unit which is progressing ahead of plan).”

Baron Discovery Fund made the following comment about Revance Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:RVNC) in its second quarter 2023 investor letter:

“Shares of Revance Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ:RVNC), an aesthetics-forward biotechnology company, declined in the quarter. Revance sells facial injectables and in December 2022 started a soft launch preview program for Daxxify, the company’s longer-acting competitor to Botox. Daxxify lasts for six months on average compared to Botox’s three to four months. Shares rose sharply in the prior quarter on strong early orders of Daxxify, and shares gave back some gains likely due to profit-taking. Revance is now expanding the launch and training additional injectors. Early feedback has been positive regarding Daxxify’s longer duration, faster onset-of-action, and natural aesthetic result. Shares are in a news vacuum as investors parse this qualitative feedback and await a better understanding of practice ordering patterns and more concrete revenue growth. We think Daxxify’s longer[1]lasting injectable is a key selling point, and we expect to see meaningful uptake in the back half of 2023 and beyond. Ultimately, we see Daxxify and the already-launched RHA fillers capturing significant share in the fast-growing $4 billion-plus facial injectables market and supporting a double of the current valuation.”
