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.

BioNTech, CureVac, Bayer, Cardiol Therapeutics, and Evotec: Tripled and still in turbo mode?
On the stock market, separating the wheat from the chaff is essential, especially in the biotech sector. This task becomes challenging when ongoing studies conclude, and their results must be interpreted. The market does not always react correctly to announcements, as evidenced by this year's acquisition of MorphoSys. While the stock market rejected the supposedly poor results, Novartis built up the first favourable positions, ultimately acquiring the Munich-based company for EUR 2.7 billion. From a low of around EUR 12, the acquisition price was a high EUR 68, making it a 500% deal. But opportunities are always lurking. Here is a selection of promising candidates.

Averting power outages, starting the battery revolution! BASF, Altech Advanced Materials, BYD, and VW
Varta is undergoing a complete restructuring and reorganization, likely leaving legacy shareholders empty-handed. The back and forth since 2023 has given the German SME sector an increasingly unsettling look. The environment is challenging, and only the strongest will survive the looming storm. Traces of Habeck's poor planning can also be seen in the energy transition. Instead of fully utilizing renewable energies, six new gas-fired power plants are now being planned, which will, of course, be powered by hydrogen. This draws investors' attention back to battery storage systems, as they are needed to successfully store surplus energy. Where do the opportunities lie for resourceful investors?

Despite the super disaster with CrowdStrike, 100% returns are possible with TUI, Lufthansa, Prismo Metals and BayWa!
The CrowdStrike outage shows us just how dependent the world has become on multinational corporations from America. Within hours, everything came to a standstill - nothing worked at airports, supermarkets, and banks, and some hospitals had to postpone operations. Does this make those responsible think about what urgently needs to be changed? In addition to a completely dependent situation in the IT sector, Europe, in particular, is in a pretty poor state regarding raw materials. Chancellor Scholz is looking for resources in Serbia, a country that would like to join the EU but is closer to the aggressor Vladimir Putin. Can Brussels overlook such facts and transfer billions more to Ukraine at the same time? Europe's needs are obviously manifold, and the most urgent need is likely to master the energy transition to prevent industry migration to more favourable jurisdictions. Investors are currently facing enormous challenges. We provide some ideas for a 100% portfolio.

Top energy transition shares: 100% returns through CO2 reduction! Nel ASA, Plug Power, Carbon Done Right, and dynaCERT
Heat records, floods, and energy shortages! This summer, all climate change issues are on the table. Since the nuclear power plants were shut down, Germany has lacked a reliable base load power supply. Pronounced grid weaknesses are increasing, with no improvement in sight. Economics Minister Habeck wants to build gas-fired power plants as quickly as possible, which can later be operated with hydrogen. Nice idea! Meanwhile, Berlin's economic experts are buying French nuclear power to fill existing gaps. Nobody can scientifically prove the difference in climate technology between here and there, but German consumers are happy to pay for this nonsense through their electricity bills. This is how EU energy policy works. Since expenses are continuously rising, we focus on increasing revenue streams. Here are some ideas for your energy portfolio.

Elon Musk finances Donald Trump - Now a strategic move with Rheinmetall, Aixtron, Almonty Industries, and Varta
An assassination attempt with consequences. Tech billionaire Elon Musk has expressed his deepest solidarity with presidential candidate Trump following the assassination attempt. The Tesla CEO will henceforth financially support the Republican presidential candidate's campaign massively. Musk intends to provide around USD 45 million per month, as reported by the Wall Street Journal. The latest election polls now put the Republican clearly ahead of Biden. This could lead to a strongly US-oriented policy in the spirit of "America First". Above all, Trump aims to halt immigration, invest in the ailing infrastructure, massively arm the national security, and revitalize "Old America". Everything suggests that the blockbuster sectors of high-tech and armaments will continue thriving for now. The focus is clearly on strategic raw materials due to the efforts to reduce foreign dependencies. Where are the opportunities for shareholders?

Trump shares: Airbus, Royal Helium, Hensoldt, and Rheinmetall appear systemically relevant, and Plug Power aims high!
The world seems to be coming apart at the seams! While the capital markets are skyrocketing, we find ourselves in the midst of several geopolitical conflicts and a brutalization of social conditions. In Saxony, poster-holders are being beaten up; in the US, presidential candidates are being shot at, and in Ukraine and the Middle East, there seems to be no end in sight to the warfare. No wonder the population's need for security is at an all-time high. This also drives up gold and Bitcoin, as political confidence is waning. Donald Trump may be a flamboyant and over-excited politician, but he is right when he says that the current situation is almost unbearable. He wants to invest a lot of money in security and get "his country" back on track. Strategically relevant shares remain in demand in this context. Here is a current selection!

Mega rally on the cards - 500% plus is likely too low an estimate! Evotec, Desert Gold, Cogia, VCI Global, and Lufthansa
The stock market keeps rising and rising - this much is revealed by the ever-new highs of prominent indices such as the NASDAQ 100, S&P 500, or the Nikkei index. However, a closer look reveals some inconsistencies. For example, only 6% of all traded stocks are currently reaching new highs, while over 70% of all listed stocks have fallen since the beginning of the year. In short, global liquidity is aggregated in just a few blockbuster stocks, with the rest being left behind. Such bubbles already occurred in 1999, 2007, and 2015, followed by a 25% to 50% correction. When exactly this will happen, no one knows, but the party is likely to continue for a while due to high liquidity. Gold and silver are in the process of forming interesting breakout formations. Now is the time to pick the cherries!

NASDAQ Super Boom! 100% returns still lurk with Alibaba, VCI Global, and Super Micro Computer; Amazon founder sells
Experts expect the use of artificial intelligence (AI) to lead to double-digit productivity gains in digitally configurable processes over the next few years. Not since the introduction of industrial robots have there been such leaps. The major Internet companies have long since prepared themselves for these developments. High computing power, automated sales processes, and a pool of trillions of user data points play into the multinationals' hands. They achieve billion-dollar profits with their networks almost effortlessly. Consumers are served exactly what interests them most and, above all, what they consume regularly. However, not all high-tech shares have been able to take off so far. What should investors pay attention to now?

Growth of 100% possible with stocks like Alibaba, Verve Group, Super Micro Computer, and GameStop
The NASDAQ is rushing from high to high. While it was primarily stocks with AI fantasy at the beginning of the year, there has even been a resurgence in e-mobility in recent weeks. Tesla reported surprisingly high deliveries in the second quarter, and Volkswagen bought into the startup Rivian to solve its software problems. This brings new fantasy for investors. However, with such advanced upward trends, it is important to find followers, meaning stocks that have not yet performed as well. We are therefore taking a closer look at some typical "growth stocks" as the revaluation overseas is likely not yet complete.

20,180 in the NASDAQ 100, the next record high is within reach! Breakout also at TUI, Saturn Oil + Gas, Lufthansa and dynaCERT
Sometimes, it takes a little longer, but sometimes, it happens without one even noticing. The travel stocks on the share price list are heading for a fully booked summer season, and debts have long since been repaid. Nevertheless, the mood is depressed - why is that? Saturn Oil & Gas has already made its third acquisition, and the share price is still moving sideways at a P/E ratio of 1.5! And the share price of dynaCERT, the long-criticized Canadian provider of hydrogen add-on devices for optimizing diesel combustion, for almost a year has bobbed between CAD 0.12 and CAD 0.15 - yesterday, it peaked at CAD 0.29, a premium of nearly 100% for loyal shareholders. Now, a detailed analysis is needed.
