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.

BYD, Tocvan Ventures, Nel ASA, Plug Power - Money is flowing into these turbo stocks!
Some companies were under extreme pressure during the crisis and lost a good 2/3 of their share price. Today, it is essential to assess whether the business models can recover quickly after the crisis or whether the adjustment path could be a bit slower. Following the latest interest rate hikes, also in Europe, the economic environment could cloud over for the time being. That is because higher interest rates also make financing much more difficult. We look at a selection of potential "turbo stocks" that should immediately be back on investors' lists if momentum picks up.

Turnaround stocks: BASF, Aspermont, TUI, Deutsche Bank - Breakout with significant momentum?
The recent bear market seems to be slowing somewhat. In addition to a good market technique, there are more and more indications that a gas delivery by Russia will likely take place after all. But one can never be sure about this topic. Too much East-West propaganda stands in the way of truthful reporting, and both sides of the conflict use every available news item for their own purposes. In any case, the stock market had to react after a strong technical oversell yesterday. It went up by 3% in just 30 minutes, led by the scolded BASF. TUI and Deutsche Bank also got some air under their wings again. Where do we go from here?

Fall is coming: BioNTech, Defence Therapeutics, CureVac, Valneva - Which biotech stock will surge again?
The summer of rising incidences is making its way, but the public has already shelved the pandemic measures and hospitals are filling up again. Even if no one wants to talk about it anymore, the fourth wave is coming! Worldwide, the race for suitable vaccines or treatment methods continues. Medicine is still relatively helpless as far as treating severe cases is concerned, and the subject of post-COVID is considered completely unexplored. We take another critical look at the landscape of biotech stocks.

Attention: BASF, Viva Gold, ThyssenKrupp - Stocks with good turnaround opportunities!
In view of continuing high inflation data, investors worldwide are looking for stability, which is currently difficult to find due to increasing geopolitical tensions. Strongly fluctuating stock and crypto prices are the daily companions. Even the real estate markets are affected by the sharp rise in interest rates in recent months, especially in the commercial sector. The bond market has already had its first sell-off, and bond prices have even trended upward again recently. The energy policy with Russia, an important supplier, appears to be decisive for the continuation of the economy. Should the gas tap be turned off, Central Europe will have a serious problem. We highlight a few anomalies from the equity sector.

Mercedes-Benz, JinkoSolar and Globex Mining with top news - Nordex needs money again!
Rising commodity prices have recently pushed inflation in Europe to over 7%. With the ongoing conflicts, economic forecasts for global growth are now also clouding over further. The German Federal Bank expects increasing economic risks in the second half of the year and consequently reduced demand for raw materials. As a result, inflation is expected to fall next year due to the high base effects from 2022. The beneficiaries would be the industries currently suffering from fragile supply chains and dependent on a stable supply of raw materials. Hopes are therefore pinned on a near end to the war in Ukraine. Which stocks could then benefit very quickly?

Take advantage of the crash in these stocks: Infineon, Siemens, BrainChip and Apple in focus!
High-tech, cars, household appliances, smartphones, renewables - the list of products seems endless. What they all have in common is the need for smart chips: But the effects of the global chip shortage are omnipresent. From today's perspective, leaders would undoubtedly like to turn globalization back a bit because the relocation of production sites around the world is creating huge problems ranging from logistics to high procurement prices to completely destroyed supply chains. If Central Europe does not grasp its energy dependence on the East soon, hard times may lie ahead for local industrial locations. Where are the opportunities in a fragile environment?

Casino shares! Opportunities at Alibaba and Kleos Space, sell-off at Uniper and TeamViewer
No one would have thought that a warlike conflict in Eastern Europe could mutate into a medium-term threat to Western prosperity. It can! The dependence on fossil energy is still far too strong in the European economies to manage without regular supplies from the East. As a result, since the end of February, the markets have been extremely nervous, as seen from the volatility indices, which yesterday were close to 30. The interpretation is: to expect about 30% volatility in the stock market within the next 12 months. Nobody would mind if it would swing exceptionally upward. Below are a few sparkling investment ideas.

Plug Power, First Hydrogen, ThyssenKrupp, Nel ASA - Climate rescue stocks in focus!
Whoever thinks about transportation in the future should have e-mobility and, secondly, hydrogen in mind. At the last EU summit in June, the phasing out of combustion engines by 2035 was anchored, with the exception of so-called e-fuels. Various processes are being discussed in producing e-fuels that lead to a synthetic fuel. It does not burn completely free of pollutants, but at least it is produced 100% climate-neutral. In the case of so-called green hydrogen, the industry is now moving forward step by step. The processes are still costly and only competitive to a limited extent if the current fossil fuel prices are considered. Things are now getting exciting with the following shares.

Climate shares: BASF, Erin Ventures, Nordex, BYD - The stuff dreams are made of!
Germany and Europe will have to dress warmly for the coming winter because a stable energy supply seems to be more than endangered from today's perspective. Private households are probably largely at the mercy of this scenario, while the major industrial locations have been working on alternative backup concepts for several months. Battery technology should also be further promoted for local energy storage. An important material for the accumulators is boron, similarly necessary as lithium, but apparently, only few know this. We highlight some interesting aspects for investors.

Attention, turnaround! Lufthansa, TUI, Desert Gold, Deutsche Bank: These stocks are taking off again!
From several perspectives, the ongoing crisis is a mammoth task for asset managers and private investors. First, after the long uptrend and the absolute boom valuation of growth stocks from 2015 to 2022, no one knows when a sufficiently high discount has been reached to re-enter. Some stocks, such as Plug Power, are very forward-looking and dependent on government contracts. Here there have already been sales valuations of a factor of 200. So is a P/S ratio of currently 12 after an almost 80% share price loss cheap or still hopelessly overpriced? We do not know because the ongoing war sets new market parameters daily. The major indices will therefore continue to search for a valuation basis in a very volatile manner. We pick out a few selected opportunities.
