RWE, Almonty Industries, Nel ASA - Emission-free energy as a booster for the portfolio?
The search for an emission-free energy future is one of the most urgent undertakings of our time. In the face of increasing climate challenges and the growing need to reduce global carbon emissions drastically, innovative energy solutions are becoming the focus of scientific and public attention. At the heart of this energy revolution lie three key technologies: Fusion reactors, renewables and hydrogen. These three fields of technology form the cornerstones of an emission-free energy future. They promise not only a sustainable energy supply but also the transformation of our energy systems towards greater efficiency, security and climate compatibility.

Volkswagen, Defense Metals, BYD, Rheinmetall - China's weapon in the tech race
In the shadow of global power rivalries, rare earths play a crucial role, not only for the defense industry, but also for the booming electric vehicle market and the production of catalytic converters in the automotive industry. These metals are the invisible backbone powering high-tech devices and are of strategic importance for the global economy and security. China's dominance in extracting and processing such resources - as illustrated by Deng Xiaoping's statement: "The Middle East has oil. China has rare earths." - sheds light on potential geopolitical tensions and highlights the importance of supply chain diversification and resilience.

HelloFresh, Royal Helium, Evotec - Rebounds in sight
Despite all the various challenges in today's world, such as geopolitical tensions or inflation, the stock market indices have managed to climb upwards. Investors are faced with a crucial question: Where is the hidden value in a market that has already broken many records? The answer could lie in those stocks that have so far stood on the sidelines of the great rally - the silent but potentially strong performers waiting for their rebound. This strategy shifts the focus away from the usual suspects who have already posted substantial gains to stocks that are ready to initiate their own rebound, potentially unlocking significant value for patient investors in the process. We have identified three such candidates.

BYD, Carbon Done Right Developments, Plug Power - Ecological responsibility becomes a success factor
Companies are faced with the urgent task of improving their carbon footprint and paving the way to climate neutrality. In an age in which environmental protection and sustainability are increasingly coming into focus, companies are called upon to act proactively and make their contribution to climate protection. Effective strategies to achieve this goal include a range of measures, from increasing energy efficiency and switching to renewable energy to optimizing transport routes and promoting a circular economy. If these steps are insufficient because the Company is too energy-hungry, the unavoidable emissions must be offset by investing in climate protection projects. Every climate-neutral company has a competitive advantage, making the achievement of this goal quite lucrative.

Encavis, Manuka Resources, Rheinmetall - Vanadium: From metal to energy source
The energy transition presents us with the challenge of efficiently storing renewable energy. A key raw material in this process is vanadium, which is used in vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs) and is mainly known for its role in steel production. These batteries are characterized by their longevity, with up to 20,000 charging cycles without any significant loss of performance, and their safety as they are non-flammable. In addition, their scalability allows them to be used both in large-scale grid storage and in the private sector. By storing electricity from wind and solar power, VRFBs are a critical element in supporting the transition to a more sustainable energy supply and ensuring the availability of steel alloys that can also be used in the defense industry.

Kraken Energy, RWE, Plug Power - Is Germany reconsidering its nuclear phase-out?
Calls for a U-turn on the nuclear energy issue are getting louder in Germany. Above all, the AfD, the CDU/CSU, and the FDP, as members of the traffic light government, are calling for a resumption of nuclear power generation. In Europe, Germany's energy policy has already caused considerable head-shaking. Nuclear power can shoulder the base load, does not produce CO2 emissions and is cheaper and less volatile than renewable energies. Many countries agree on one thing: we need to move away from fossil fuels. In the Czech Republic, plans are underway to build 4 new nuclear power plants, and in Poland, the Netherlands and Sweden, there is no longer interest in phasing out nuclear power. It will be interesting to see how Germany's struggle for energy develops.
