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.

Varta, JinkoSolar, Barsele Minerals - Green tech: After the sell-off is before the rally!
Green tech stocks were the clear favorites of investors in 2021. Many stocks from the energy, climate or metals sectors reached multi-year highs. First, the hydrogen hype ran, then the stock market focused on battery makers and e-mobility, and toward the end of the year, uranium and lithium suppliers were bullish. A healthy rotation of green themes, further spurred by the Glasgow climate conference in November. Now some prudence has returned, prices fell slowly at first and then violently in the last few days. Where are the opportunities now?

Siemens Energy, Nordex, Noram Lithium, Standard Lithium - After the crash, new hype ahead?
Climate change is one of the greatest challenges of our time. In order to jointly achieve the goals of the Paris Climate Agreement, a reduction of CO2 emissions in the transport sector is necessary. A significant contribution is being generated in the shift to e-mobility. Manufacturers in Europe and Asia are countering the industry leader Tesla with high double-digit billion sums for research and development. With 350,000 electric vehicles sold in Germany, 2021 will be a new record year for the industry. In 2022, experts estimate that there will be 450,000 plus hybrids. However, the green plans of the traffic light government require 1.6 million electric vehicles per year. Where are the opportunities lurking for climate-oriented investors?

Volkswagen, Yorkton Ventures, BYD, NIO: E-Mobility 2022 - The Tesla hunters are coming!
Are we on the verge of another big year for e-mobility? You might think that with all the hype surrounding Elon Musk, things should be going right for Tesla. That is only partially true. While Tesla clearly leads the sales list in Europe with the Model 3 with more than 115,000 vehicles sold, according to Statista, the Californians are far behind VW worldwide. In the meantime, the ramp-up of the new plant in Berlin Grünheide has been delayed, and the Tesla share price has been hit hard. We analyze the Tesla pursuers!

The super battery for Tesla is coming: Standard Lithium, Meta Materials, BASF
The raw material shortage continues seamlessly into 2022. Whether it is e-mobility, aircraft technology or renewable energies, just about all high-tech segments of industry require raw materials and processed materials in ever-increasing quantities. Manufacturers are struggling to maintain their supply chains because the pandemic is making things difficult. Mines are experiencing illness-related outages, and targeted delivery volumes are falling short of planning. Due to the permanent workload, there is also little time to explore new properties. Politicians are trying to create a certain degree of planning security for the domestic industry through long-term supply agreements with partner countries. We present three stocks that are performing well in the current environment.

NEL, dynaCERT, Plug Power - Hydrogen: First the crash, now the rebound?
Elon Musk has been considered an absolute star on the stock market since 2021. First PayPal, then Tesla and later SpaceX. He is an ingenious entrepreneur with almost clairvoyant abilities when it comes to future megatrends. Because whatever he touches becomes a hot topic overnight. However, he smiles at the hype surrounding hydrogen. After all, he is one of the loudest critics of this technology. He has repeatedly called it "stupid" to use electricity to produce hydrogen to power a fuel cell, which in turn generates electricity. Fuel cells are "fool cells" in his eyes. So why do H2 values have their relevance on the stock market after all?

Barrick Gold, Troilus Gold, Gazprom - Ready for takeoff: Gold ignites now!
Increased geopolitical risks and inflation fears have created an initial reaction in gold. For weeks it stood motionless at USD 1,790 - 1,820. However, the intensification of the Russia-Ukraine conflict has now caused interest in precious metals to rise noticeably. The amount of gold held by the world's largest gold ETF also went up for the first time in two weeks. Since the beginning of the year, it has increased by around 3.7% to currently 981 tons. The highly regarded ARCA NYSE GOLD BUGS Index also moved significantly upwards with +7.8%. Where are the biggest opportunities in the gold market?

Alibaba, Hong Lai Huat, Tencent: Now things are really taking off!
The Asia region remains on the growth path. The economies of China, Singapore, and Indonesia achieved 4.5 to 6.5% growth in 2021. Prosperity is not yet comparable with the West. But the developed zones around the metropolises have already shown high momentum for years. The real estate market, in particular, is booming in China as well as in Hong Kong, Singapore and Japan. It is uncertain how long the low interest rates will continue to support these markets because the Federal Reserve has already announced that it will exit the liquidity bubble. Who can surprise in the current environment?

BYD, Almonty Industries, Varta - E-mobility needs critical metals!
The pandemic has disrupted supply chains in the raw materials sector. In Brandenburg, a new Tesla electric car is expected to roll off the assembly line every 45 seconds in the future. But the permits for the water supply are dragging on. The new plant was supposed to go "online" in 2021. In addition to the regulatory requirements, however, it is primarily the availability of scarce raw materials that hamper the innovative spirit of the high-tech industry today. In particular, metals and battery raw materials are in high demand and have become a bone of contention in globalization. We look at both sides of the increasingly complex supply relationship.

Lufthansa, TUI, Desert Gold - Explosive turnaround at the start of 2022!
There was no sell-off in 2021 after all. Although the DAX started to crash in October and November, and the 200-day line was clearly undercut on both occasions at 14,850 points, the market nevertheless held these lines. The crash prophets all went quiet again, and by the end of the year, the index was back to just under 16,000 points. Who would have thought it - twice a whole 1,200 points reversal as if nothing had happened. High inflation figures and Omicron fears could not push the high liquidity out of the market so far. At the beginning of 2022, there are signs of a rebound for some beaten-up stocks.
