Kraken Energy, Barrick, Nel ASA - High-yield investments with growth potential
The hunt for raw material resources has always been a race for the best possible energy supply. When sources are in one's own country or economically friendly neighboring countries, the risk of supply disruption is low. Nuclear energy is still one of the most efficient solutions. The US is a leader in the use of uranium. This benefits the Company Kraken Energy, which has dedicated itself entirely to the exploration of uranium deposits in North America. Due to the geopolitical conflicts, the price of gold has already risen by 14% in the last 6 months alone. Barrick has now published its quarterly results, and investors can rejoice. The Norwegian hydrogen company Nel ASA also has reason to celebrate. Here, too, a pact with its big brother is extremely promising...

Profit more than doubled! Barrick Gold, Nel shares, Globex Mining ripe for take-off
While defense and AI stocks have already performed brilliantly this year, there are also stocks with catch-up potential. One of these is Barrick Gold. Despite a record gold price, the shares of one of the world's leading gold producers are trading at 2019 levels. Will the latest quarterly results bring a breakthrough? In any case, profits have more than doubled, exceeding analyst estimates, and the Company continues to expand. Also gaining momentum in recent weeks is the share of Globex Mining. The mining incubator offers a unique diversification opportunity in the commodities sector. The news flow is convincing and could continue to drive the share further. The Nel share also needs a boost. The hydrogen pioneer can look forward to a major order. Could this trigger a turnaround in the share price?

Newmont, Royal Helium, Anglo American - Commodities on the rise
Precious metals remain in demand due to geopolitical uncertainties. After gold moved away from its highs above the USD 2,400 per ounce mark, there were no further major sell-offs. Industrial metals are also still in vogue. Copper has risen by around 20% since the beginning of the year and posted a new high for the year, while nickel has moved well away from its lows for the year. On the other hand, the noble gas helium, for which a global undersupply is predicted due to rising demand from the defense industry, has seen little movement.

More than 100% with Gold, Bitcoin and Tourism: TUI, Lufthansa, Desert Gold and Deutsche Bank
The stock market has already performed very strongly in 2024. The focus has been on the artificial intelligence, high-tech, crypto and defense sectors. Many signs indicate that a sector rotation is imminent in the coming weeks. Precious metals, for example, have already made significant gains, but mining companies are lagging behind. Shares in the tourism sector have been equally subdued so far, although the COVID-related declines in the travel business should have long since been offset. In the financial sector, Deutsche Bank is attracting attention. After Nvidia, Microsoft, Meta and Rheinmetall, where are the next 100-percenters lurking?

Shell, Saturn Oil + Gas, BP - Oil price soon at USD 100? Oil defies US inflation
Last Friday, the oil price rose despite the negative impact of the latest inflation data from the US. These figures have dampened hopes of swift interest rate cuts by the FED, usually a catalyst for increasing oil demand. Tensions in the Middle East continue to contribute to uncertainty. Some analysts, including those at JP Morgan, are even speculating on a potential rise in the Brent oil price up to USD 100, driven in part by Russia's surprise announcement of further production cuts. If the oil price rises to USD 100, oil companies' profits would soar. We are therefore taking a look at three companies today.

Is China getting serious? Rheinmetall and Almonty Industries profit! Varta share on the brink?
Is China really preparing for an attack on Taiwan? It is well known that China is massively increasing its gold reserves. But why tungsten, too? After all, China itself is the largest producer of this raw material, which is not only in demand in the arms industry. However, as noted recently by the CEO of Almonty at an investor conference, the Chinese are currently buying large quantities of tungsten. We can only speculate about the reasons behind this. What is clear is that the Western world needs to secure its tungsten supply. Almonty Industries is already producing in Europe and plans to commission a huge tungsten mine in South Korea later this year. Revenue and profits should then rise sharply and lead to a revaluation of the share. Rheinmetall has undergone a revaluation in the past two years. Can it reach EUR 600? Varta, on the other hand, is on the brink. Analysts do not see any upside, even at the current price level.

RWE, Kraken Energy, Nel ASA - Germany's industry under pressure
Germany is pursuing its own path in energy policy and will rely entirely on renewable energies in future. Robert Habeck emphasized that Germany is now independent of Russian gas. However, there is no talk of independence, as Germany has become a net importer of electricity, indirectly importing gas from Russia and even nuclear power. This is because the energy storage facilities in Germany for renewable energies are not even sufficient for one hour. In addition, Germany has some of the highest electricity prices, which is already prompting industry to relocate some of its production abroad. Nuclear power is an emission-free alternative, and many power plants are being built worldwide. Uranium could become scarce here. Whether hydrogen can solve the energy storage problem is currently questionable.

After Gold and Silver: Nickel on the Move! Kinross Gold, Power Nickel, Royal Gold
The geopolitical uncertainties with the escalation between Iran and Israel helped precious metals to further price surges. Despite being technically overbought, gold was able to hold its ground near the USD 2,400 per ounce mark, while silver closed the week with a further gain of around 3%. In the shadow of this, industrial metals are moving into the spotlight after a weak overall year in 2023. Alongside copper, nickel, an important raw material for many low-carbon technologies, has established a solid base in recent months.

War in the Middle East and the explosive commodity cycle: Rheinmetall, Renk, Globex Mining, and Varta in focus!
Well, that escalated quickly. Just a week has passed since Iran carried out a nighttime attack on Israel. That was followed by a few days of commemoration, a few phone calls with Washington and the UN, and then last Friday, an Israeli counterattack was reported. While the agency news is not really clear yet, the stock markets are taking the current uncertainty as an opportunity to finally let some air out of the inflated system. Central banks are also stepping back from hoped-for interest rate cuts, as current inflation is too high and the negative signals from the economy are not yet excessive. All in all, defense stocks are holding up well, and a new upward cycle is beginning for commodities. It took a while, but now is the time to have the right stocks in the portfolio.

Attention Nvidia! The turnaround check for Nel ASA, Saturn Oil + Gas, Lufthansa and TUI
It looks like a peak is forming in Artificial Intelligence. The most prominent share here is Nvidia. With a spectacular rally, the value has surged by over 100% in just 6 months. However, the share price is now stuttering, and there have been no new highs for days. The charts for TUI and Lufthansa also show an upward reversal. The latest wage negotiations have tightened the cost structure considerably. Also, a significant amount of revenue has been lost due to the numerous strikes. And now the Middle East crisis is flaring up, making the entire region a risk for holidaymakers. However, the rise in oil prices is giving oil companies a new lease of life. Here is a list of interesting investments.
