Rheinmetall and Saturn Oil + Gas are making money - What is next for Volkswagen?
The stock market is a place of constant change. For a long time, Volkswagen was regarded as one of the largest car manufacturers in the world, while Saturn Oil & Gas and Rheinmetall led a somewhat shadowy existence.

Almonty Industries, Rheinmetall, Intel - The invisible engine of high-tech applications is called tungsten!
Tungsten, often operating behind the scenes, plays a central role in some of the most innovative and technologically sophisticated industries in the world. As a high-tech raw material, tungsten is essential for the production of modern microchips and electronic devices that shape our everyday lives. At the same time, it is an indispensable component in the defense industry, where its exceptional hardness and resilience contribute significantly to the development of advanced weapons systems. Due to its properties, tungsten is also being used increasingly in batteries. Nevertheless, the importance of this critical raw material is often underestimated.

Plug Power, First Hydrogen, thyssenkrupp nucera - Could multiples like in the dot-com era be possible?
The current hydrogen industry is strongly reminiscent of the dot-com era: back then, many internet stocks were considered temporary flops, but some survived and prospered, with Amazon being a prime example. When the dot-com bubble burst, Amazon emerged stronger and became a global economic giant. Similarly, just as there were skeptics about the long-term success of early internet companies, today there are doubts about the long-term viability of hydrogen technology. However, history teaches us that in the midst of many failures, some standout players can emerge that revolutionize the industry and create long-term value. We look at three possible candidates.

Commerzbank, Desert Gold, Coinbase - Which assets retain their value in a crash?
Following the financial crash, investors are increasingly seeking safe and profitable investment opportunities. Traditional savings methods at banks offer security but often only yield low returns. Gold, on the other hand, has been considered a crisis-proof store of value for centuries and experiences a resurgence in uncertain times. At the same time, cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin are gaining popularity, both because of their high return potential and their decentralized nature. We therefore take a look at one company from each sector and see how the shares have reacted in the latest setback.

Daimler Truck, dynaCERT, Plug Power - Electric on the decline! Is this the hour of hydrogen?
In recent years, electromobility has been regarded as the undisputed driving force behind the global transport revolution. However, recent developments paint a different picture: stagnating sales figures and growing challenges in the supply of raw materials raise the question of whether the era of electric vehicles has reached its peak. As a result, the focus is shifting to another alternative drive system: hydrogen. With increased investment and technological advances in the hydrogen sector, the question arises as to whether the time has come for hydrogen as an energy source to experience its major breakthrough and win the race for sustainable mobility.

Barrick Gold, Prismo Metals, BASF - Precious metals as a safe haven in a crash
Last week, the indices recorded a noticeable decline on Thursday and Friday. The Fear and Greed Index is approaching a state of extreme fear, indicating that market sentiment is dominated by uncertainty and panic. In such times, investors often flee to safe havens, such as precious metals, while selling almost all other assets. This shift can lead to further turbulence on the markets and demonstrates how strongly emotions and risk behaviour influence events on the financial markets. We therefore take a closer look at two precious metal companies and analyse BASF, a stock that has been hit harder by the crash.
