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.

1600% with Bitmine and Circle Internet – The next opportunities are lurking at Plug Power and naoo!

  • Technology
  • Bitcoin
  • Digitization

The stock market has surprises in store every day, with crypto- and AI-related business models currently causing a stir. Stocks such as Galaxy and Mara Holding are still among the harmless ones, with gains of 200 to 400%. Things really got going with Bitmine Immersion and Circle Internet. While Bitmine posted a 1,000% rally on Monday, Circle Internet took a whole month to increase its value sixfold. However, it is not necessarily the business model that determines whether stocks take off or not. Often, all it takes is a wave of discussion on the internet or social media channels and the wave breaks. Plug Power and naoo could be the next candidates for a rise. We analyze why.

Climate protection meets infrastructure: Argo Living relies on graphene for low-emission concrete

  • graphene

The construction industry is responsible for approximately 8% of global CO₂ emissions, and construction is taking place virtually everywhere. Anyone in the cement manufacturing industry who can significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions is making a measurable impact on global climate targets. This creates visibility, political support, and ESG relevance, all of which are drivers for rising company valuations. The topic is highly relevant because several trillion USD will be invested in new infrastructure worldwide by 2050, including through programs such as the US Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), the EU Green Deal, and the reconstruction of Ukraine once the time comes. Investors are specifically looking for companies that are also included in these public budgets, as green building materials are considered a key technology. Argo Graphene Solutions (formerly Argo Living Soils) is perfecting this concept, and its stock is on the rise.

The world is in turmoil! Geopolitical conflicts, tensions between power blocs, and growing security requirements are straining public budgets and presenting governments and authorities worldwide with complex challenges. With the increasing use of digital solutions, human error must be minimized and excessive working hours reduced. This requires sophisticated technology to protect highly sensitive infrastructure such as energy, transportation, defense, and communications. As a rule, this infrastructure must be efficiently monitored and maintained for maintenance and liability reasons. In the digital age, every security-related decision is based on a foundation of data: high-resolution, up-to-date, and reliable. The regular collection and intelligent analysis of this data is essential for public institutions as well as for military applications. Volatus Aerospace (TSX-V: FLT; WKN: A2JEQU; ISIN: CA92865M1023) has its finger on the pulse!

Geopolitical wild card: Almonty on track for another price surge, overtaking Rheinmetall, Hensoldt, and RENK

  • Mining
  • Tungsten
  • Defense

Almonty Industries (TSX: AII; WKN: A1JSSD; ISIN: CA0203981034; CAD 3.23) remains in the spotlight, and rightly so! The tungsten resource stock has been one of the absolute top performers so far in 2025 and has the potential to move into a completely new league. All signs point to a revaluation. What is developing here is more than just a mining project; it is a geopolitically highly relevant raw materials offensive with billion-dollar potential. Amid escalating trade conflicts, China is sending a strategic counter-signal and restricting exports of key metals. Tungsten is thus becoming a critical element for high-tech, aviation, and defense and is now at the top of governments' procurement lists. This is precisely where Almonty comes in. With the Sangdong mine in South Korea, the largest Western tungsten supplier outside China will be established by 2025. US defense companies are already securing the coveted resources – long-term, exclusively, and strategically. The confidence is huge, and the timing is perfect. Those who get in now could ride the next wave of growth. A surge in valuation is more than just likely; it is inevitable!

High-tech boom 3.0! Is another 100% possible with Palantir, SAP, MiMedia, and TeamViewer?

Artificial intelligence and big data remain the big topics on the stock markets alongside defense. This is leading to daily gains for high-tech and defense stocks. Investors increasingly appear to view the capital markets as a one-way street, with valuations seemingly taking a back seat. Interestingly, Europe is ahead of the US. Since the tariff dip in April alone, the EURO STOXX 50 has gained around 20%. With Israel's attack on Iran, some uncertainty is now entering the market. However, many investors do not believe the big bull market will change. Only the Shiller P/E ratio for the S&P 500, at over 36, is a cause for caution, given that the long-term average is around 17. But does anyone care? The party is in full swing, and critics are not welcome. So, where do the opportunities lie in the weeks ahead?

For nearly two years, the biotech sector remained largely stagnant. But in the last few weeks, some heavily bombed-out life science stocks have seen significant gains, and takeovers are back on the agenda. Eli Lilly is acquiring Verve Therapeutics, and BioNTech has finally reached an agreement with CureVac. The carousel is slowly starting to turn, and tensions are rising. New rumors are circulating, especially as major pharma stocks like Eli Lilly and Novo Nordisk are showing negative 12-month performance - despite record highs in the major indices.
What is next?

Global CO₂ emissions are a significant contributor to global climate change. In addition to global transportation and energy use, the construction industry, particularly through concrete and cement, also plays a major role. According to a 2022 study by UNEP, the construction sector accounts for around 37% of global CO₂ emissions. Decarbonizing construction is, therefore, a key task in meeting international climate targets. With the founding of a specialized subsidiary and the use of bio-graphene, Canadian company Argo Living Soils is venturing into the concrete industry and combining ecological innovation with industrial scalability. It is worth taking a closer look because the potential is enormous!

Takeovers! A new dawn for biotech companies – Evotec, BioNTech, PanGenomic Health, and CureVac in focus

  • healthtech
  • Biotechnology
  • Pharma

Many large pharmaceutical companies are facing the "patent cliff" as patents on blockbuster drugs expire, threatening massive revenue losses in the future. To fill these gaps, they are acquiring suitable and innovative biotech companies with promising drug pipelines. Sometimes, however, they simply acquire technologies already worth billions. The current wave of acquisitions in the biotech sector is being driven by a combination of economic pressure, technological change toward AI and digitalization, and a weak financing environment for smaller biotech companies. After years of restraint and high volatility, fundamental valuation factors are back in focus. Investors are returning, creating a prosperous environment for those who jump on the bandwagon in time. We highlight a few ideas.
