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, Apple, BYD, EuroSports Global - The stock market stars of electric mobility
The number of companies focusing on the electric mobility sector has been rising sharply for the past 2 years. Different business models and the majority of the companies are suppliers to larger integrators. Then there are many followers and startups that still want to harvest a piece of the future pie. For many ideas, time is ticking - time to market is the keyword - because the race for ready and in-demand products started about 5 years ago. Those who are just starting out today could be too late to market once the lengthy and costly development and testing phases have been completed. Apple and Google are investing billions to be part of it. We deal with a few of these protagonists.

SAP, TeamViewer, Siemens Energy, QMines: These are the buy signals!
A tick higher every day, letting off some steam in between, but then closing at all-time highs again. This is the current stock market trend, which presents itself daily. It continues to be the stock market darlings and large standard stocks that move up. The NASDAQ has done a 4-week ride again, as it has done for the third time in a year. A 1000 point correction is followed by a 1500 point rise to a new high. Those who are not there just watch; even harder it hits the shorties, who again were not allowed to experience a bear market. The miraculous money multiplication thus continues. We look at interesting titles.

NIO, Volkswagen, Toyota, Silkroad Nickel - Now it really starts!
Armin Laschet (CDU), the CDU/CSU candidate for chancellor, does not want to give the internal combustion engine an expiration date, even though he himself drives an electric car. He also warns against focusing solely on the electric vehicle regarding climate protection in the transport sector. "I do not believe that this will be the form of mobility for the next 30 years, even though I drive an electric car myself," the CDU federal chairman told Handelsblatt. "There are ecological implications, for example, in battery production and the extraction of raw materials. We will still see many technological leaps." So in terms of e-mobility, the last word has not yet been spoken. Nevertheless, the industry is gearing up for a politically motivated wave of purchases. For this, it needs raw materials.

Glencore, Barrick, Sibanye, Carnavale Resources - Inflation drives commodities!
The metal prices are going through the roof! After the first shock last week, when the People's Republic of China announced that it wanted to actively "fix" the prices for raw materials in the future, the next hammer followed at the end of the week: The consumer price index (CPI) in the USA set inflation at 5% - the highest level since mid-2008. Nevertheless, the central banks still see no reason to reduce the expansive monetary policy; risking an economic collapse in this fragile situation is too high. Given these settings, there are now two options for commodity investors to protect themselves against rising inflation: Invest directly in commodities or buy stocks in the commodities sector.

Varta, MorphoSys, Theta Gold Mines - Strong tailwind from politics!
As an entrepreneur, it is a particular challenge today to find business models that will come into political focus in the near future. We had this at the turn of the millennium in mobile communications when licenses were sold for future generations. In the meantime, there have been important changes in infrastructure and energy policy - one man's joy is another man's sorrow - and now the government is considering the expansion in the direction of climate protection, only approving new houses with mandatory solar installations. Another major intervention, but certainly in the right direction!

Heidelberger Druck, windeln.de, NEL, Osino Resources - 100% machines!
These are fluctuations! It is not unusual that stock markets tend to caper near their highs. It is currently the order of the day for smaller, relatively insignificant stock exchanges to be traded with extreme price fluctuations in both America and Europe. Yesterday it was Heidelberger Druck and above all windeln.de, which increased about tenfold in 3 trading days. In the USA, the Reddit squeeze of AMC and GameStop is still going on. The shares of Clover Health took the cake yesterday with a 100% increase in one day. We focus on some of the protagonists of this sectoral bull market.

NIO, JinkoSolar, Siemens Energy, Nevada Copper - This is the copper sensation!
The copper shortage continues as demand is continuously increasing. The current slightly weakening copper price should not hide the general state of the market. Resources are scarce, procurement markets are depleted, and demand remains at a high level. Current trends in the economy are further exacerbating this situation. Modern electric vehicles use about three to four times as much copper as a conventional internal combustion vehicle. It should not be forgotten that the construction of the charging infrastructure also requires significant amounts of copper. New mines are not currently in sight, but there is news from Nevada.

BYD, Nordex, Kodiak Copper: The green revolution!
They have not yet been seen in the state elections of Saxony-Anhalt! However, the political green wave in Germany is starting to warm up for the federal election. Consumers expect greater awareness of the Paris Climate Agreement with corresponding measures in our country, especially in Europe. Already today, this is getting investors to focus correctly on the issues of the future. In plain language, this means continued tax incentives of the highest magnitude for so-called "environmentally friendly technologies" that include solar plants and wind power, including, above all, battery-powered mobility and hybrid vehicles. We shed light on some of the favorite stocks.

TUI, TeamViewer, White Metal Resources - Is the breakout to the upside coming?
Calm is different! Actually, with volatility well below 20, there should be a noticeable calm in the market. However, this is not the case. There is high turnover in individual stocks and sectoral movements as not seen for 20 years. The reason for this is the number of active shareholders and market participants willing to trade since the many lockdowns. No longer under the supervision of the bosses, one or two trading platforms are simply running along at home. This increases the depth of trading and turnover on the stock exchanges - and 95% of all speculators are trading long. The percentage of shareholders is also growing steadily; in 2021, it could approach 10% in Germany. We look at stocks with breakout potential.

The Power of Digital Media - AMC, ProSieben, Tencent, Aspermont
Sell in May and go away...in 2021, it has not yet worked. The weather in June is much warmer and the markets are rushing from one all-time high to the next. The DAX reached a new high yesterday at 15,732. The mood was outstanding, especially when it came to vehicle values. However, the excesses were slightly slowed down at AMC Entertainment. Now that the Company has placed three capital increases, some calm has returned. We look at a few special situations in this advanced bull market.
