Born in Munich, he first studied economics and graduated in business administration at the Ludwig-Maximilians-University in 1995. As he was involved with the stock market at a very early stage, he now has more than 30 years of experience in the capital markets. In the historic dot.com year 2000, he trained as a CEFA analyst in Frankfurt and has since then accompanied over 20 IPOs in Germany.
Until 2018, he held various positions at banks as an asset manager, capital market and macro expert as well as fundamental equity analyst. He is passionate about the energy, commodity and technology markets as well as the tactical and strategic asset allocation of liquid investment products. As an expert speaker at investment committee meetings of funds as well as at customer events, he can still describe the course of the 1987 crash, one of the major buying opportunities of the last 33 years on the stock market.
Today, he knows that the profit in shares is not necessarily the result of buying cheaply, but above all of avoiding mistakes and recognizing in good time when markets are ready to let air out. After all, in addition to basic fundamental analysis, investing in stocks is above all a phenomenon of global liquidity and this must be monitored regularly.

In peace and war – Defense stocks poised for the next leap: Volatus Aerospace, thyssenkrupp, DroneShield and Rheinmetall
Europe's defense industry is facing an unprecedented wave of investment. The combination of long-term secure financing, political resolve, and technological modernization is creating an attractive environment for providers of defense systems, sensor, and AI solutions. Analysts expect average growth rates of 5 to 10%, which will see the market expand from around EUR 125 billion to approximately EUR 170 billion by 2030. The key drivers are the EU's massive investment offensives, which aim to mobilize up to EUR 800 billion through the new SAFE financial instrument. This is a historic turning point for rearmament - especially after 25 years of disarmament. The package includes EUR 150 billion in loans for the joint procurement of high-tech systems such as drones, air defense, and artillery. Which stocks stand to benefit from this scenario?

Will Trump's tariffs be stopped by the courts? Gold and silver on the rise – Deutz, Desert Gold, Renk, and Hensoldt in focus
A US appeals court has declared most of Trump's tariffs unlawful under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) of 1977. This law allows the president to take economic measures against foreign countries in the event of a declared national emergency. However, no such national emergency currently exists. Instead, the US economy is growing at a moderate pace, while benefiting from the energy supply emergencies in Europe and further defense support for Ukraine. The US is no longer simply giving these goods away; instead, it now provides loans or sells them to allied countries. This creates significant uncertainty in the markets, which in turn is fueling defense stocks as well as gold and silver. New highs were reached at USD 3,640 for gold and USD 41.5 for silver. Where do the opportunities lie for investors?

The next wave is coming! NetraMark and BioNTech are on the winning track - Can Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly follow suit?
Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming the development of new drugs by analyzing complex data at lightning speed and making clinical trials more efficient. AI technologies enable candidates to be selected more specifically for research projects and therapeutic successes to be predicted with greater precision. Companies such as NetraMark and BioNTech have already successfully used these tools, with the Mainz-based company currently even achieving breakthroughs in oncology. Meanwhile, Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly, once stars of the obesity market, are now seen as "fallen angels". Will they manage to turn things around? Investors with foresight now have new opportunities in rapidly growing billion-dollar markets. A long-awaited interest rate cut in the US could be the spark the sector needs! Selection is now key!

Berlin's billion-euro programs are making shareholders rich! Rheinmetall, Hochtief, Argo Graphene and Bilfinger
The money-printing machine is running! The 2026 federal budget has now been approved at EUR 521 billion. The defense budget is set to rise from EUR 62.4 billion to EUR 82.7 billion. In addition, there will be an additional EUR 25.5 billion from the special budget for the German Armed Forces. Federal investments – including the Climate and Transformation Fund and new special assets – will amount to approximately EUR 126.7 billion in 2026. New borrowing is expected to rise to EUR 89.9 billion, and if the so-called "special assets" are included, new borrowing will rise to EUR 174.3 billion – a historic figure. This is a windfall for companies in the defense and infrastructure sectors. Which stocks are now taking center stage?

Trump under pressure, markets wobble – Technically position now with BYD, Almonty, and Palantir for the next 100% gains!
The stock markets are in yet another bubble, but unlike the tech bubble in 2000, investors are more prepared for the impending correction. The warning signs could not be more evident: inflation, wars, numerous global conflicts, surging interest rates, massive deficits, tariffs and trade wars! Anyone who sees short-term growth under these conditions is likely mistaken. And yet, the market is still holding on to the megatrends of artificial intelligence and defense. Admittedly, 1,000% or more could be earned here, which is good for those who rode out these trends. But caution is advised: The Shiller P/E ratio for the S&P 500 rose above 40 last week – well above the historical norm of 12 to 25. So, where is the celebration continuing? We offer a few clues.

All-Time High for Gold, Volatility Rising! thyssenkrupp, AJN Resources, Airbus, and Lufthansa in Focus
The stock market is preparing for a hot fall. While inflation figures show no sign of weakening, gold and silver are climbing to new record levels. Rising debt levels and growing geopolitical tensions are fueling this trend. So far, capital markets have largely held their ground without major losses. However, US President Donald Trump's trade policy has suffered a severe setback. With his plan to impose comprehensive tariffs on goods from almost all countries in the world, invoking an emergency law from 1977, he has clearly exceeded his powers, and the courts are now stepping in. One clear warning sign: volatility is high, and valuations have reached extreme levels. The Shiller P/E ratio for the S&P 500 now stands at 40, far above the historical range of 15 to 27 over the last 30 years - making 2025 an absolutely exceptional year in terms of overvaluation. We are on the lookout for promising stocks, and gold should not be overlooked as a strategic portfolio addition.

Silver above USD 40 – These are the 100% winners! Silver North, First Majestic, SMCI, and Alibaba!
Metal commodities are showing remarkable strength, with silver leading the way. In recent years, silver has evolved from being just a pure precious metal into an indispensable commodity for modern technologies. The metal plays a key role in electronics, batteries, and solar cells. A prime example is the year 2024, when an estimated 220 million ounces of silver were consumed in photovoltaics alone, more than twice as much as in 2021. This sharp increase in demand means that global supply can no longer meet demand, which is reflected in declining inventories on the futures exchanges. Consumers are alarmed, and mining companies now need a new strategy to bring more material to market. Speculators are now investing in the most promising projects – here is an example from the Yukon. The time to get on board is now!

This is where the action is! Plug Power has turned around, Pure Hydrogen, nucera, and Nel ASA with top news!
The capital markets are speculating on a US interest rate cut in September. With high inflation and government debt, this is not causing much fiscal enthusiasm, but at least more liquidity is flowing into the markets after the current summer slump. For those paying attention right now, there are opportunities to pick up stocks at bargain prices, but caution is warranted: trading volumes are thinner than usual. Turnaround speculators and medium-term investors should take another look at the hydrogen sector. Many things are changing for the better here, and there are some interesting new additions. We are examining Plug Power, Nel ASA, thyssenkrupp nucera, and Australian hydrogen specialist Pure Hydrogen. The Company is currently expanding successfully into the US, with other continents likely to follow. Where are the opportunities for investors?

Nvidia figures: Will the bull market continue? Rheinmetall, Almonty, and BYD also offer excitement!
Today, Nvidia's figures will dominate stock market activity. In the slipstream of the 3,000% stock, there are, of course, other key players such as Rheinmetall and BYD, which have also multiplied in value over the last three years. Both companies reported good figures, but even a stock split at BYD did not help to prevent the downward correction. Almonty Industries raised USD 90 million through a NASDAQ listing and then faced short sellers, who are now starting to tremble. This is because the consolidation appears to be over, and the start of mining operations in South Korea is within reach. The stock market is clearly not a one-way street, especially as AI algorithms increasingly determine trading activity and attempt to mislead inexperienced investors with short-term moves. It is beneficial to maintain a clear head. Here are a few ideas.

Let off some steam! Caution advised for DroneShield, RENK, and Hensoldt - but opportunities at Pasinex
The stock market is entering a correction phase. For overheated stocks in the high-tech and defense sectors, this is a welcome opportunity to let off some steam. Now it is important to put the long-term prospects into perspective against the short-term hysteria. Doing so reveals where it may be worth buying after a correction. The charts are only just starting to rise, and a stronger correction should follow. In this context, the zinc projects of Pasinex Resources appear to be particularly attractive. As always, a balanced portfolio protects against unpleasant surprises. We present a few ideas.
