RWE, Kraken Energy, Nel ASA - Germany's industry under pressure
Germany is pursuing its own path in energy policy and will rely entirely on renewable energies in future. Robert Habeck emphasized that Germany is now independent of Russian gas. However, there is no talk of independence, as Germany has become a net importer of electricity, indirectly importing gas from Russia and even nuclear power. This is because the energy storage facilities in Germany for renewable energies are not even sufficient for one hour. In addition, Germany has some of the highest electricity prices, which is already prompting industry to relocate some of its production abroad. Nuclear power is an emission-free alternative, and many power plants are being built worldwide. Uranium could become scarce here. Whether hydrogen can solve the energy storage problem is currently questionable.

Barrick Gold, Globex Mining, BP - Commodities In the spotlight: Supercycle started?
Global demand for commodities is reaching new heights, partly driven by increasing geopolitical tensions. The exchange of attacks between Iran and Israel is a case in point. This conflict, deeply rooted in religious and political differences, continues to escalate and could have far-reaching consequences for international stability and commodity markets. With this latest escalation of the Middle East conflict, security aspects in the global competition for important resources such as gold, silver and copper are taking center stage. China is demonstrating its hunger for resources. However, the price of oil has also risen recently. There has long been talk of a commodity supercycle. Perhaps it has now finally begun. Where should one invest now?

Varta, Carbon Done Right Developments, Bayer - Buy when the cannons are firing?
The stock market is a fascinating place where investors have to weigh up their opportunities and risks. An often-quoted stock market adage is: "Buy when the cannons are firing". The idea behind this is that one can find opportunities for lucrative investments in times of crisis when market sentiment is particularly poor. Warren Buffett also supports the idea of buying securities or companies at times when the majority of investors are pessimistic, causing prices to fall below the actual value of the investments. He said: "Be greedy when others are fearful and be fearful when others are greedy." We have selected three candidates who have recently lost ground and shed light on whether an investment is worthwhile.

Nel ASA, First Hydrogen, Nikola - Hydrogen on the rise
With the development towards a clean and efficient logistics industry, hydrogen is gaining importance as a forward-looking energy carrier. Continuous innovations in fuel cell technology and storage systems are making it increasingly competitive. This technological progress, coupled with government incentives to expand the necessary infrastructure, is paving the way for widespread adaptation in the logistics sector. Pilot projects are already validating the practical suitability and paving the way for more extensive implementation in the logistics sector. Recently, there have been positive signals from the three hydrogen companies we are looking at today.

Volkswagen, Altech Advanced Materials, RWE - Use the dip in electrification companies for your portfolio
The future is electric. With the growing number of electric vehicles, energy storage technologies are also gaining enormous importance. These technologies form the backbone of a reliable, environmentally friendly energy landscape - they store energy from renewable sources and ensure that electricity flows even when the sun and wind are taking a break. Such progress not only promises a smaller ecological footprint but also a new era of energy independence. We have selected three companies that are helping with electrification.

BYD, Cardiol Therapeutics, Super Micro Computer - Stock market gains thanks to innovation and specialization
In the dynamic stock market environment, companies that invest in innovative technologies and specialization at an early stage stand out with above-average success. Amazon, once founded as a small online bookstore in a garage, is a shining example of this strategy. Through clever diversification and pioneering work in new technology fields, such as cloud computing with Amazon Web Services, Amazon has developed into one of the most valuable corporations. For investors, Amazon's rise underlines the golden opportunities: those with the foresight to invest in future-oriented companies can achieve above-average profits. We have selected three companies that aim to follow this path or have partially already done so.

MorphoSys, Defence Therapeutics, Novo Nordisk - Biotech deals: Corporations on a shopping spree!
In 2023, the volume of business in the pharmaceutical industry, with mergers and acquisitions, reached USD 152 billion despite high interest rates. Experts predict that this momentum could continue as large pharmaceutical companies are facing a wave of patent expiries for their key products that will roll in between 2025 and 2030. Companies are therefore on the lookout for new active ingredients, often by acquiring or licensing developments from smaller biotech companies to compensate for potential revenue shortfalls. There have also been major takeovers in recent months. We take a look at takeover targets and buyers.
