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.

150% with Gold, Caution in Defense stocks! BYD, AJN Resources - Are RENK and Steyr headed for a crash?
The stock market is currently experiencing fluctuations. While defense stocks are leading the performance list, precious metals have also been back in focus for several months. The reason: Currency devaluation is accelerating as inflation rates remain high. Now, there are rumors that Donald Trump may want to replace his hawkish monetary watchdog, Jerome Powell. Wall Street is betting that a more dovish figure will soon steer US interest rate policy. That would be the next rocket boost for stocks. However, risk-averse investors are increasingly turning to gold. In 2025, the price per ounce has already risen as high as USD 3,490. Due to low production costs, projects in Africa remain firmly in focus. One example is AJN Resources, which has recently refinanced and is repositioning itself in Ethiopia. Where do the real opportunities lie for dynamic investors?

Hard to believe: thyssenkrupp going public? New DAX highs with SAP, ASML, and Antimony Resources
With geopolitical tensions escalating with each passing day, it is becoming increasingly clear that reliable supply chains for industry and manufacturing are a thing of the past. German and European industry, in particular, are feeling the effects more and more as supply routes are increasingly restricted or even shut down completely as a result of growing sanctions. This scenario of scarcity is leading to increased sensitivity on the capital markets: long-term interest rates are rising, and risk parameters are skyrocketing. How are companies responding to this uncertain environment, and is there still hope for a revival of global trade? Which fundamental trends should investors pay particular attention to in light of this situation? There is a lot to be gained!

Will Trump seize Greenland's resources? 300% opportunity with MP Materials, European Lithium, CRML, Glencore, and DroneShield
US President Donald Trump has recently reaffirmed his long-standing interest in acquiring Greenland. In April, he did not rule out military options and called control over the island an "absolute necessity" for US security. At the same time, negotiations are underway on the possibility of binding Greenland more closely to the US through a special agreement, a so-called Compact of Free Association (COFA), without formal annexation. However, the Danish government and the Greenlandic administration have signaled their clear rejection: Greenland is not "for sale" and its residents have no interest in becoming part of the US. Rising global tensions and the increasing scarcity of strategic raw materials are putting pressure on industry. The first effects are already being felt, particularly in the high-tech and defense sectors. A rush on strategic metals is underway - and investors are taking notice.

Does Trump love hydrogen after all? The sector is celebrating! Plug Power, Nel, dynaCERT, and MP Materials are in rocket mode
Global pressure to reduce climate-damaging emissions is growing, and the hydrogen sector is increasingly coming into focus. Although US policy under Donald Trump does not prioritize climate protection, Europe and Asia are resolutely pushing ahead with the transformation in mobility, logistics, and mining. Hydrogen technologies offer enormous potential here, especially in the heavy-duty sector. Innovative providers such as dynaCERT are focusing precisely on this area with tried-and-tested solutions for reducing emissions and increasing efficiency. The technologies are mature and ready for use, global demand is rising, and decision-makers are under growing public pressure to support sustainable alternatives. The sector remains relatively quiet, but with a bit of industry rotation, the pendulum could swing quickly in the other direction.

Bitcoin and exchanges in IPO and hysteria mode! AI millions from NetraMark Holdings, Clara Technologies, BitMine, and D-Wave
The recent IPOs on the NASDAQ show just how quickly innovations can materialize. No sooner are they listed than they skyrocket, because what is new must be good! Or is it? From a distance, stock market professionals are beginning to wonder whether everything is still above board. The crypto company BitMine, for example, gained 2,000% within two weeks, only to lose a third of its value after announcing a USD 2 billion capital increase. Clara Technologies debuted on the stock market in January with prices around CAD 0.50. By the end of last week, the share price had exploded to around CAD 16, a 32-fold increase. Our advice: Investors should examine business models very carefully before entering the ring. AI newcomer NetraMark is fully embracing the trends toward digitization and increased accuracy through the use of AI in the clinical trial sector. Where do the opportunities and risks lie for agile investors?

Infrastructure hype in 2025: Sustainable construction is in demand! Keep an eye on Siemens, Heidelberg Materials, Argo Graphene, and Porr
A lot is falling apart around the world right now, not just in material terms, but also structurally. Wars, geopolitical tensions, and economic upheavals are putting entire regions under pressure. Although Germany is not directly affected militarily, the consequences of the wear and tear are clearly noticeable here as well: our infrastructure, which has been criminally neglected for decades, is increasingly showing cracks, both literally and figuratively. Dilapidated bridges, overloaded rail networks, outdated power lines, and sluggish fibre optic expansion are now even hampering competitiveness. Europe has recognized these weaknesses and is responding with ambitious investment programs. The Green Deal, the EU Recovery Fund, and national economic stimulus packages are set to pour billions into sustainable mobility, energy supply, digitalization, and resilience. Where are the winners for your portfolio?

DAX correction! Biotech in takeover mode! BioNTech, CureVac, Pfizer, Vidac Pharma, and Kraft Heinz in focus
The stock markets are in top form: both the DAX and the NASDAQ 100 have flexed their muscles in recent days. Prices are being driven primarily by the continued strength of technology stocks and growing hopes for stable global economic growth, despite Donald Trump's tariff madness. At the same time, a growing takeover fever in the biotechnology sector is providing additional momentum. In the field of cancer research in particular, companies such as BioNTech, Moderna, and other specialized mRNA players such as CureVac are increasingly becoming the focus of strategic investors. The fight against cancer is increasingly becoming one of the key drivers for new partnerships and market consolidation. Speculation about possible mergers and billion-dollar acquisitions is currently on the rise again. This opens up an exciting environment for investors, offering opportunities for above-average returns. We identify the trigger points.

Stock market correction? Gold target raised to USD 4,500 – Barrick, Sranan Gold, Rheinmetall, and Strategy
The time seems ripe for new positions. While the major indices DAX-40 and NASDAQ recently reached new highs, gold, silver, and Bitcoin are about to open entirely new chapters. At over USD 38.50, silver recently hit a 14-year high, and chart analysis now indicates a breakout. Bitcoin, often referred to as digital gold, also hit new highs with prices above USD 118,000. Arguments such as war, debt and inflation are causing investors to flee to safe havens. In the equity sector, defense and high-tech stocks with AI exposure are among this year's best performers. Investors should slowly start to slow down here, as the risk of a correction is increasing. Those investing in gold should consider adding stocks like Barrick Mining and First Majestic Silver to their portfolio, but Sranan Gold is an absolute buy. We are becoming increasingly skeptical about Rheinmetall, as the momentum has run out! We can help you restructure your portfolio.

Almonty Industries goes NASDAQ: In the fast lane with one of the world's most critical metals
Almonty Industries (TSX: AII; WKN: A414Q8; ISIN: CA0203987072; EUR 4.72) is in the final stages of its debut on the NASDAQ. To this end, the number of shares has been visually reduced so that the share price complies with the stricter regulations of the well-known American technology stock exchange. This marks the beginning of a new era for the raw materials company. In an environment of daily political upheaval, a wealth of business opportunities will open up in the coming months. CEO Lewis Black will continue the success of recent years with an increased stock market presence and will also welcome the new US shareholders to the ownership circle. The highlight: US companies are often valued at a multiple of other stock markets, especially in the armaments and defense sector. The excitement is mounting!

1,000 tanks for NATO - another 150% with armaments and gold? Rheinmetall, Dryden Gold, Hensoldt, and RENK in focus
The news hit like a bombshell. NATO plans to deploy up to 1,000 modern main battle tanks along its eastern flank. Amid growing tensions with Russia and against the backdrop of the ongoing war in Ukraine, the defense alliance is sending a clear signal of deterrence. The plan is part of a comprehensive rearmament program to strengthen what is called "Forward Defense." Germany, Poland, and other Eastern European member states, in particular, are set to serve as logistical and operational hubs. It is not just about tanks; ammunition, spare parts, and maintenance infrastructure are also to be built up on a large scale. In addition, the defense sector will see investments of over EUR 1 trillion over the next decade. Reason enough for the next price explosion at Rheinmetall and Co. Security is also likely to be the reason for the impressive gold rally since the beginning of the year. Where will it end?
