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.

Explosive energy news - The 250% rockets for 2026 could be called Oklo, American Atomics, Nel ASA, or Plug Power!
How far along is the energy transition? This question is being asked not only by politicians, but increasingly also by investors. Yesterday, it was announced that CSU-EPP leader Weber plans to scrap the combustion engine phase-out. The climate summit in Brazil was also dominated by various topics, but no clear commitment to phasing out fossil fuels could be agreed upon. Questions also revolve around hydrogen – is there a future here? The fact remains that more than 30 nations worldwide plan to invest heavily in nuclear energy again. Oklo is showing how it can be done in the US. American Atomics is currently being formed in Canada, with the Company's sights set on a fully integrated uranium supply chain. We offer exciting insights.

Bitcoin crash or super rally in 2026? Keep an eye on Strategy, Metaplanet, Nakiki, Mara, and Coinbase!
Up and down and down and up! Since Bitcoin reached its interim high of USD 125,965, it has been bouncing energetically. On some days, the swings reach USD 10,000. That is quite remarkable, as 10% fluctuations are more common among small caps or selected Nasdaq tech stocks. From the trading behavior over the past two months, the takeaway is this: either Bitcoin enters a real winter phase with further declines, or volatility continues, depending on whether accumulation or selling dominates. The same applies to BTC asset manager stocks, with the downside here being that there is no longer a premium on Bitcoin, but there is good leverage. A toast to traders or desperate long-term investors! Here are a few tips.

Top performers for 2026 wanted! Siemens Energy, Globex Mining, JinkoSolar, and Nordex in focus
The 2025 investment year is nearing its end, with gains of just under 20% in both the DAX 40 and NASDAQ 100 indices. These two benchmarks remain the focus of attention for European investors, as they represent the benchmark for portfolios in their respective areas. Asset managers did not have an easy time of it until the middle of the year, as they had to switch back to "normal mode" very quickly after Trump's tariff correction in April, despite all the uncertainties. This meant bringing their clients' portfolios back into "risk-on" mode, which is very nerve-wracking in the current environment. Excessive government debt, never-ending geopolitical conflicts, and creeping inflation are leading to higher interest rates, which are considered poison for growth-oriented equity investments. Where can money be made in 2026? With today's selection, we attempt to navigate our way forward through the fog.

E-mobility to hit the roof in 2026? BYD on the rise, Graphano Energy strong and Mercedes-Benz chart breakout!
The black-red federal government plans to launch a new subsidy program for electric vehicles and plug-in hybrids at the beginning of 2026. The support is primarily aimed at people with low or middle incomes to make it easier for them to switch to electric mobility. The basic subsidy is expected to be around EUR 3,000 and can increase to a maximum of EUR 4,000 with child supplements and a bonus for very low incomes. Only vehicles with a net list price not exceeding EUR 45,000 will be eligible for funding, which means that higher-priced models will remain outside the program. Both the purchase and leasing of purely electric passenger vehicles (BEVs) and, according to media reports to date, plug-in hybrids will be eligible for funding. At the same time, the existing motor vehicle tax exemption for fully electric vehicles is to be extended, but for a maximum of 10 years and with a horizon until the end of 2035. The pendulum is therefore swinging in favor of electric vehicle manufacturers and necessary suppliers. Now is the time to get started!

Gold rush 2026: Position yourself quickly! Keep an eye on Barrick, B2Gold, Desert Gold, and DroneShield!
Who would have thought it? Gold and silver are the clear winners among defensive assets in the 2025 investment year. Protection against inflation, geopolitical risks, and fiscal-policy uncertainty has made precious metals shine, which, despite all the doom and gloom from tech stock market traders, were able to generate high double-digit returns of 57% and 82%, respectively. Of course, a 10% drop in the US dollar is weighing on returns in euros, but there is still a nice profit left in the account. Gold and silver mining stocks and, selectively, some explorers performed even better. In today's peer group, we turn our attention to the African continent, where important changes in the regulatory and economic environment could transform local producers into potential cash machines in 2026.

The high flyers of 2026: who will lead the next rally? Almonty, Rheinmetall, BYD, and Mercedes-Benz in focus
As the year draws to a close, investors are already thinking about the next investment year. This is understandable, as hardly any other period in history has brought as much return as the past year. AI, defense, and high-tech stocks led the way, with some even reaching 1,000% in individual cases. However, the price trends also show that stocks that have performed well will eventually enter a consolidation phase. In the case of Almonty, the share price rose tenfold, and even after the correction, it was still up almost 700% at the beginning of December. In addition to fundamental data, timing also plays a decisive role in success. We are thinking about the coming year. Will the old favorites also be the new winners?

Super Rally 2026 – Who will climb to the top of the yield Olympus? Nel ASA, Plug Power, RE Royalties, mutares, or Steyr?
At the end of the year, it makes sense to rethink some stories. After an exuberant boom year in 2025, selecting new "top performers" is becoming increasingly difficult. Defense appears to have run out of steam. Nvidia, a representative of the AI sector, has been hovering around USD 180 for the past three months, investors' favorite Palantir is settling in at the USD 170 mark, and even the flagship indices DAX and NASDAQ have been moving only up or down by around 1,000 points for weeks. Get out of stocks? That would be logical, but we know that selling only happens when the cannons start firing! We take a look at some stocks that caused quite a stir in 2025. What will happen next?

Gold & silver with a record year – 100% in 2026 too? Barrick, Kobo Resources, First Majestic, and Endeavour Silver
Gold and silver remain the surprise of 2025. Despite many prophecies of doom, both precious metals have so far managed to hold on to their record highs of USD 4,350 and USD 58.50, respectively. After a brief correction at the end of last week, the highly volatile silver price quickly rose back to the USD 58.00 mark. Experts warn of an approaching pain threshold for short sellers and futures speculators. They had hoped to be able to close their uncovered positions at a favorable price before the approaching settlement date on November 28. Far from it, because on Friday, metals took off again. According to traders, it is currently almost impossible to procure sufficient quantities of physical silver to cover the many derivative transactions. This is leading to unusual behavior on the market. So where should investors pay close attention now?

Gold, drones, and specialty glass! Just like that, 200% gains out of nowhere with DroneShield, AJN Resources, and Gerresheimer
The stock market is showing its volatile side. While AI, defense, and tech stocks are consolidating, gold and silver are skyrocketing. Sector rotation is therefore in full swing at the end of the year. It is time to take a closer look at some notable movements, because every bull and bear market contains the seeds of the next reversal. DroneShield up 1,000% and then down 75%, AJN Resources suddenly up 200% from a standing start, and Gerresheimer, a fallen angel down 60%, a battered member of the German SME sector. We take a closer look at these stocks – where is it worth taking action?

Selling pressure! Bitcoin slumps to USD 50,000? Caution with Strategy, Finexity, D-Wave, and Metaplanet!
Global financial systems are undergoing a period of rapid technological change. Time-critical calculations and enormous computing capacities are increasingly becoming the decisive factor in remaining competitive. When it comes to price discovery on electronic markets, technical connectivity and even the distance to the exchange's servers are now decisive factors in determining the best pricing on the markets. Algorithms can recognize when a large number of investors want to move in the same direction. State-of-the-art computer systems have long been executing trading decisions in fractions of a second, fundamentally changing the dynamics of the markets. At the same time, digital assets, blockchain architectures, and token-based platforms are creating a new ecosystem that is closely linked to these advances. However, an additional challenge is already looming: quantum computers. They pose the risk of making previously trustworthy networks vulnerable. How should investors position themselves?
