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.

Strategic Power Trio: How Rheinmetall, Infineon, and Power Metallic Are Shaping the Backbone of the Future of Industry
The global race for critical metals such as lithium, cobalt, and rare earths has long since moved beyond the realm of harmless market mechanisms; today, it is a matter of strategic buildup. Copper has emerged as the true "common thread" of the energy transition and the AI revolution. As an indispensable component of every high-tech enterprise, from AI chips and complex sensor systems to massive energy grids, copper has become a structural bottleneck. A compulsive, at times painful, marriage prevails: for the Western industrial world is existentially dependent on a smooth supply to maintain technological supremacy. In other words, the industrial fate of the world hangs on the red metal. The vulnerability of these high-tech supply chains is currently being laid bare in all its harshness by the Strait of Hormuz blockade. When restrictive export rules from major producers collide with maritime paralysis, the geopolitical escalation has an immediate impact on the calculations of global goods production. 3 companies, 3 positions—clear hallmarks of a winning team!

IPOs, takeovers, and production! A 500% gain is on the table: Barrick Mining, Desert Gold, Deutsche Bank, and Commerzbank!
Amid geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and jittery capital markets, gold is once again shining as a safe haven, attracting investor capital. At the same time, a wave of consolidation is brewing in the highly fragmented European banking sector, with merger speculation surrounding heavyweights like Deutsche Bank and Commerzbank adding extra momentum. Meanwhile, Barrick Mining is injecting fresh momentum into the commodities sector with its North American IPO plans, opening the door to new capital inflows. Things are getting even more exciting at Canada's Desert Gold, where the transition to production could herald the next valuation jump. The parallel nature of these developments creates a rare tension between defensive hedging and aggressive growth potential. Those who think strategically now recognize that the most lucrative entry points often emerge amid global crises.

Things are heating up in the Middle East! Antimony Resources, Rheinmetall, RENK, and LPKF Laser in high demand
Created and published on behalf of Antimony Resources Corp.
The escalating conflict in the Middle East is acting as a catalyst for the already fragile global supply chains and is abruptly pushing critical raw materials into the spotlight of the capital markets. The focus is less on the physical flow of metals through the Strait of Hormuz and more on its role as a bottleneck for approximately 20% of global oil trade, where disruptions immediately drive up energy prices and, consequently, the cost base of industrial production. Even moderate disruptions lead to rising freight rates, higher insurance premiums, and extended delivery times: a toxic mix for industries optimized for just-in-time production. Studies estimate that the risk of a sustained disruption could destabilize trade volumes of up to USD 1.2 trillion annually. In this complex situation, companies that address strategic bottlenecks or are part of the security-relevant value chain stand to benefit the most. Antimony Resources Corp. is emerging as a potential Western supplier of a critical metal, while Rheinmetall and RENK Group are benefiting from rising defence budgets. LPKF Laser & Electronics is addressing the chip market with new ideas. Investors should trust their instincts about what belongs in their portfolio right now.

SpaceX is still a long way off, but gold is within reach: Lahontan Gold Advances Toward Production in Nevada
Geopolitics is about as predictable as the weather in April: one moment, bright sunshine; the next, another storm in the Middle East. It is good when your portfolio is not left out in the rain, but is instead successfully mining in Nevada. Lahontan Gold is living proof that, even as a neighbour in the big leagues, you can shine as an agile developer. After all, the Santa Fe project scores with what is currently worth its weight in gold on the stock market: good management, planning certainty, and a dose of operational grit. For months, the stock chart has shown an almost indecent strength: a record-breaking 2,000% performance that remains unfazed by geopolitical headlines. Elon's SpaceX would have to try hard to match that! So, for those who want to invest not in utopian visions but in tangible development stories, here is a solid gold anchor with plenty of potential for the next valuation jump.

Blackout in Your Portfolio? Not with these energy boosters for dynamic investors: 200% potential with Nel ASA, A.H.T. Syngas, and ITM Power
The Petersberg Climate Dialogue makes one thing clear: the current energy crisis is, above all, a fossil fuel crisis. And that is precisely where an opportunity for climate protection lies. Rising oil and gas prices and risks are forcing countries to accelerate the expansion of renewable energy, energy efficiency, and electrification far faster than previously anticipated. What matters now is speed and consistency—something policymakers in Brussels have so far struggled to deliver. In practical terms, this means reducing dependencies, investing in clean technologies, and, above all, shifting transport and heating toward green electricity. At the same time, it is becoming clear that international cooperation is crucial, even if the phase-out of fossil fuels remains highly controversial globally. The bottom line: those who strategically leverage the energy crisis can strengthen security of supply while simultaneously accelerating the energy transition. For investors, there are numerous entry points into these scenarios today—but where is the right place to jump in now?

Geopolitical Front Lines Redrawn: Why HPQ Silicon, DroneShield, SAP, and Oracle Are Now Indispensable for Investors
After 12 months of extreme volatility and uncertainty, one thing is clear: the modern era is not being decided in an ivory tower, but on the front lines of geopolitical conflicts. Europe's long period of peace is over, and technology is shaping the new wars in ways never seen before. This complex situation is now shaping commodity markets, supply chains, and digital infrastructure simultaneously. Drone technology is emerging as one of the most visible fields where military requirements and industrial innovation converge directly. Battery performance determines not only range and operational capability but also the strategic strength of entire supply chains. At the same time, data specialists like SAP and Oracle are coming into focus because they provide the information and control layer on which modern states and companies operate. Those who invest with an eye on the times, therefore, look not only at weapons and energy but also at the digital infrastructure of SAP and Oracle as part of the new power architecture.

Oil and Gas Shock Boosts dynaCERT, ITM, and Nel, but Sparks Panic at Jungheinrich!
The stock market has its ups and downs. While Canadian hydrogen fuel-saving company dynaCERT had been stagnating for months, it is now making a breakthrough in Asia. The Canadians' fuel-saving technology is being welcomed with open arms in Vietnam, raising hopes for a hot summer in other Asian countries as well. While Plug Power already celebrated a stellar first quarter, industry rivals ITM Power and Nel ASA are now quickly following suit. However, the current excitement surrounding hydrogen offers little support for Jungheinrich's stock. Here, the Q1 figures are more of a reason to sell. What happens next? Read for yourself.

NASDAQ Record, TUNGSTEN Record, MARATHON World Record – What Does This Mean for Almonty Industries?
Kenyan runner Sabastian Sawe is making history. He ran the London Marathon in 1:59:30, setting a new world record. Even the NASDAQ 100 Index reached a new high of 27,314 points at one of the most fragile moments in the global economy, and the critical metal tungsten also set a new record at USD 3,320 per metric ton unit of APT. The world is in a time of maximum uncertainty, excessive debt, and aggressive leaders. Surprisingly, the stock market is joining in this frenzy; every day it goes higher, faster, further. Anyone who wants to make money must view the whole thing with an Olympic mindset: "Taking part is everything!" In the short term, even negative scenarios are likely being bought into, because after all, most market participants seem convinced that the Middle East conflict will soon end and the West will then usher in a new economic upswing with somewhat less political risk. One thing should be clear: Nothing works without critical metals! And that is what the record-breaking run at Almonty Industries stands for. Investors who do the math will quickly realize: Another doubling is on the horizon!
