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.

TeamViewer, Aspermont, Palantir - Lockdown ahead: Corona drives the online world!
The stock markets reached new highs again last week. The inclined observer is starting to wonder what is always celebrated here from one week to the next? Governments are again imposing different measures to combat the pandemic. Even the lockdown is becoming socially acceptable again due to the standards in Austria. Many had hoped that the vaccinations would have given us a better winter than last year. However, due to historical infection figures in Germany, this does not seem to be the case. Anyone who still believes in a flourishing economy here must have strong nerves. We are looking at a few companies that can continue to grow strongly despite the pandemic.

Alibaba, TalkPool AG, Baidu, Tencent - Brutal sell-off, what is next here?
The sell-off of Chinese tech giants is now entering the next round. This time it is not the regulator but a cautious outlook for the future. Alibaba's share price felt the negative sentiment yesterday and is firmly back in the grip of the bears after an interim recovery of over 30% since summer. The NASDAQ has been unimpressed with Chinese company forecasts for weeks, sending its own growth stocks from high to high. We take a look at the dynamic sector.

Standard Lithium, Prospect Ridge Resources, American Lithium - Up, up and away!
The battery metal lithium is again on everyone's lips. The starting point in 2021 was once again the political closing of ranks after the German elections. The proponents of quick action in favor of the climate predominantly focus on electromobility, increasing the pressure, especially in the battery industry. The perfect battery has not yet been developed. The market is betting on a continuation of lithium-ion technology in the absence of alternatives. Another trend has just emerged in recent days. The precious metal shares are set to jump! No wonder because the inflation figures are taking on a momentum of their own, which the FED, in particular, has probably vastly underestimated.

Leoni, Sierra Grande Minerals, Varta, Nordex - Critical raw materials, skyrocketing prices!
According to the active suggestions of many climate protectionists, we are all best off riding bicycles. Because the climate measures, in particular the CO2 taxes, will soon make movement with fossil fuels impossible. In October, the E10 fuel price reached the EUR 2.00 mark at some filling stations. As a result, 80% of the gasoline price target formulated by the Greens in the 1990s of 5 D-Marks has been achieved. Calculated on the oil price, a liter of refined fuel would only cost about EUR 0.60; the rest is made up of duties and taxes, as is well known. Interestingly, in the Federal Audit Office records, it is precisely the political climate protection protagonists who stand out with an impressive number of car trips and air miles. It seems that only some people are supposed to restrict themselves, while other more privileged groups enjoy a free ride. Is this the future of individual mobility?

Barrick, Barsele Minerals, Agnico Eagle, Yamana - Trading the gold explosion to USD 2,500!
Minneapolis Fed President Neel Kashkari announced last weekend that high inflation could persist in the coming months, and yet the Fed should not overreact; after all, inflation will pass again. As you can see, central bankers on both sides of the Atlantic never tire of repeating this thesis to us investors. One tends to listen carefully because the same monetary watchdogs tried to conjure up a "wishful inflation" of over 2% a few years ago. A stage goal has certainly been reached with a 4% increase in price! What is the future for precious metals in this environment?

Bitcoin Group, wallstreet:online AG, Palantir - How to handle inflation?
The highest inflation since 1990 has sent the gold price soaring. The Bitcoin (BTC) was also able to profit enormously from this. The cryptocurrency is proving to be not only a safe haven but also a hedge against inflation. And many in the crypto community believe that bitcoin can continue to benefit from sky-high inflation. But beware: volatility in BTC is enormous. Central banks, which are supposed to be proactive, are arguably a bit behind the curve in the fight against inflation. After all, it is now not just the prices of certain categories that are rising due to the opening up of economies or supply chain problems, but prices are now rising across the board. Inflation is hitting asset prices the hardest; it is called "asset inflation." Which values are going up with it?

NEL, dynaCERT, FuelCell Energy, Plug Power - How far will the hydrogen wave carry us?
The average temperature on Earth should rise by no more than 1.5 degrees Celsius over the next few decades. 190 countries agreed on this target in Paris in 2015. Since then, there have been four further world climate conferences. The fifth is now underway in Glasgow, Scotland, and is scheduled to end today, Nov. 12. It is not only the EU that is tightening its climate targets - around the globe, more and more countries are decarbonizing their economies. The topic of hydrogen is a rainmaker in this context. Here the question arises, when will it really start? According to the World Energy Council (WEC) analysis, at least 20 countries accounting for almost half of global economic output have already adopted a national hydrogen strategy or are at least close to doing so. We take a look at well-known protagonists.

MAS Gold, Deutsche Bank, Commerzbank - Gold, Silver, Inflation - The explosive mixture!
The inflation figure is causing gold and silver to explode! The inflation rate in the USA has risen to 6.2% - this is the highest level in more than 30 years. The extreme inflation is due to the ongoing price-driving factors of the Corona pandemic. Gold took this figure as an opportunity to overcome its technical resistance at around USD 1,831. At the peak, the precious metal rose yesterday to just under USD 1,870. Silver followed on fast foot and reached an increase of a sound 3.1% to over USD 25. A flash in the pan or a trend reversal, we examine the environment a bit more closely.

Pfizer, BioNTech, Water Ways Technologies, Teva Pharma - High-Tech and the Pandemic!
Shortly after the start of the worldwide vaccination campaigns, Israel already showed itself to be the vaccination world champion. This is no coincidence because Israel is a high-tech country and one of the world leaders. The medical infrastructure, in particular, can benefit from this; it is very well developed and, despite the comparatively small size of the state, is considered to be very resilient. The pandemic has nevertheless hit hard on Israel's economy, which previously grew at rates of 3% annually. In 2020, GDP fell by 3.7%, according to the central bank. That things didn't get worse was due to the large government aid packages. These packages increased government debt from 60 to 73% of GDP, which is still low by global standards. We take a look at some exciting technology topics.

SAP, Qualtrics, TeamViewer, Osino Resources - Watch out, these stocks are way too cheap!
Sometimes things do not work out as expected on the stock market. At the beginning of October, the DAX started to sell off, the 200-day line was even clearly undercut twice at 14,850 points, and many crash prophets became quite loud again. However, as is so often the case, they were again not proven right, as the market exited trading last Friday at a new all-time high of 16,033 points. Who would have thought it - a whopping 1200 point reversal, the proclaimed crash was canceled again without a sound. We look at exciting stocks in a very volatile environment.
