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.

Unbelievable but true! Bonus shares from BYD, VW restructuring, Antimony Resources and thyssenkrupp in focus
With each passing day of escalating geopolitical conflicts, one thing becomes clear: secure supply chains for industry and manufacturing are a thing of the past. The German and European industrial landscape, in particular, is feeling the effects of increasing sanctions, which are narrowing supply chains and, in some cases, drying them up completely. Capital markets are sensitive to such scarcity scenarios, with long-term interest rates rising and risk indicators skyrocketing. How are industrial companies responding to this environment, and is there any hope for a revival of global trade? These are all legitimate questions when following political developments on both sides of the Atlantic. What trends should investors keep an eye on?

Artificial intelligence predicts a perfect summer – 150% chance with Lufthansa, Credissential, TUI, and D-Wave
It is worth taking a closer look - even if many might blink in disbelief. Despite ongoing geopolitical tensions and a sluggish economy, the DAX 40 index has already surged by 20% in 2025. Investors are clearly no longer allowing themselves to be rattled by tariff threats and bleak headlines because no one wants to be without stocks anymore. Artificial intelligence is now even available as investment advice, which also recommends a healthy diversification across all asset classes, sectors, and countries around the world in order to generate at least 5% per annum. Yes, 5% - that is the ideal scenario for people who already have substantial capital. Risk-aware and even speculative investors would like to see a little more. Summer is approaching – typically a slow season – but AI is predicting temperatures in Germany at times exceeding 40 degrees Celsius. We take a look at stocks that are already in a hot phase.

Gold or Defense – Where to take action now? Rheinmetall, RENK, and Leonardo require caution, AJN Resources on the launchpad!
Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine shows no signs of ending. Despite all political efforts on both sides of the Atlantic, the Russian commander is continuing his bombardment of his neighboring country. NATO sees many reasons in the aggressor's behavior to significantly increase its military capabilities. This is causing further investor money to flow into defense stocks, but valuations are now very ambitious. However, in their search for security, investors are also increasingly buying gold, which could rise to as high as USD 3,490 per ounce in 2025. Low production costs are bringing low-cost projects in Africa into focus. AJN Resources has just refinanced and is repositioning itself in Ethiopia. How can investors diversify wisely?

Greentech is now exploding – a 300% comeback for hydrogen? nucera, dynaCERT, Plug Power, and Nel ASA
Although the US administration under Donald Trump does not think much of climate change, the outlook for the hydrogen sector is improving all the time. This is because it is no longer the US setting the tone but Europe and Asia. Global efforts to make local transport cleaner and more sustainable are now also reaching the transport, logistics, and mining industries. There is still enormous potential for improvement here in terms of reducing climate-damaging emissions. Innovative technologies such as those developed by dynaCERT are now well-known in the market. Therefore, decision-makers in public office will no longer be able to avoid discussing these issues if they want to remain in their positions in the coming years. The public pressure to combat negative climate change globally is increasing. Forward-looking investors should start positioning themselves now.

With gold over USD 3,400 - 100% gains in no time: Gerresheimer, Desert Gold, Hensoldt, and RENK
Rumors about Jerome Powell's resignation were circulating at the beginning of the week. Described as very "hawkish," meaning he strictly aligns interest rates with inflation, he is an uncomfortable contemporary for President Donald Trump. The US administration needs a lot of money to get the outdated infrastructure and the entire economy back on track. Numerous campaign promises for a flourishing America can only be fulfilled by the flamboyant frontman if sufficient funds are available. This is a difficult undertaking due to the very high level of government debt. The credit rating agency Moody's is not intimidated by the president's threats and recently downgraded the US credit rating by one notch to AA1. Triple-A status is now history. This is a perfect setup for gold, with the precious metal rising again to over USD 3,400. Where are the opportunities for investors?

Madness: New tariffs - no, yes, or maybe not? Trump moves thyssenkrupp, Power Metallic, RENK, and Plug Power
The stock markets have rarely seen such volatility. At this point, there are multiple shifts in direction on every trading day, triggered by the latest headlines from the White House. Last week was almost entirely about tariffs, with Putin's war and Trump's peace promises already forgotten. The world continues to live in uncertainty due to the prevailing war scenario, with no stone left unturned. This environment makes it clear: secure supply routes for raw materials will be essential in the coming period. In the defense industry in particular, metal shortages could become a showstopper. Investors can benefit from the current trends through careful selection as Western industrialized nations are stepping on the gas. Where are the big return generators hiding?

Can you believe it? Stock market darling BYD plunges, while D-Wave, 123fahrschule and Metaplanet go into express mode!
Bull mode every day? While 30-year government bonds in the US have climbed to the magical 5% yield mark, stock markets are rising to new highs almost daily. However, the focus is no longer on the NASDAQ but on the DAX 40 index - the reason: US President Donald Trump's policies are causing international caution toward the formerly close ally. Tariffs are limiting growth, and tourism is collapsing, weakening the US dollar and prompting fund managers worldwide to look for other investment opportunities. Rising interest rates and a growing budget deficit could thus become economic dynamite for the promised land. In contrast, an increase in investment rates has been observed in Europe since the beginning of the year, with investors investing in digitalization and infrastructure following generous public investment decisions. Where do the opportunities and risks lie?

Up to 1500% with high tech and artificial intelligence – Incredible price movements at Evotec, NetraMark Holdings, and D-Wave
Artificial intelligence can now be found in all sectors of the economy. Search processes, validations, and historical comparisons now take place in a matter of seconds, and a dramatic leap in productivity is on the horizon. The capital markets have set themselves the task of evaluating these future processes. This is no easy task, as most topics cannot be viewed in isolation. Last week, renewed tariff threats led to a short-term price correction. These losses had to be offset yesterday, with political denials from the US sending share prices skyrocketing again. Under intense pressure, investors now have to decide whether investments promise short- or medium-term success. We use three examples to show how challenging this has become. Where are the opportunities and risks?

Tariffs, nuclear energy, and climate policy! Trump sets the pace for Nel ASA, First Hydrogen, Plug Power, and Oklo
The world is undergoing a 180-degree turn. Nuclear energy, which was demonized until 2022, is now experiencing an astonishing renaissance, and green seems to be redefined. Under Donald Trump, the US aims to expand the use of nuclear energy significantly, and the US president signed all the necessary decrees last week. Trump said that the United States intends to become "a real power" in the nuclear industry again by quadrupling its nuclear power production after his tour of the Middle East. Oil prices thus approached the critical USD 60 mark again, and hydrogen stocks experienced another sell-off. However, one problem is becoming apparent: 30-year bonds are now yielding over 5%. Stock market traders are now focusing on nuclear business models and uranium stocks. Where are the opportunities and risks?
