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.

thyssenkrupp, Globex Mining, Barrick Gold - Which share holds the most potential?
In the midst of a turbulent phase on the global markets, companies in the commodities sector are facing enormous challenges. Recent developments have increased volatility, as evidenced by the unexpectedly strong growth in China's commodity imports in July. Despite these positive signals, the market reaction has been subdued, partly due to negative indicators like the falling copper price. Copper serves as an early indicator of global economic strength. Investors eagerly await a potential rebound while market observers discuss the causes and future opportunities. Today, we will look at a steel, mining, and gold company to determine which one holds the most potential.

Plug Power, Saturn Oil + Gas, RWE - Which energy belongs in the portfolio?
The debate about the ideal energy source for the future focuses on hydrogen, oil, and renewable energies. Despite its controversial reputation, oil remains a significant energy source due to its high energy density and well-established infrastructure. Technological advances are also reducing the negative environmental impact. However, renewable energies and hydrogen also offer significant advantages, such as sustainability and low emissions. However, there is a lack of infrastructure to fully exploit the advantages of these technologies. We examine one candidate from each sector and where they stand today.

Nel ASA, dynaCERT, Plug Power - Hydrogen: Multiplier or downfall?
Hydrogen technology could not only revolutionize the future of energy but also offer significant opportunities for investors. Hydrogen stocks are currently in the spotlight and promise potentially high returns. Companies specializing in the production, storage, and distribution of hydrogen could be among the big winners of the energy transition. Many of these companies are still in the early stages of development, which means high growth opportunities but also entails corresponding risks. The question is: Can you get multipliers in your portfolio with hydrogen companies, or is there a risk of total loss? We look at three companies aiming to make money with hydrogen.

We have picked out three companies, some of which are pursuing different approaches, and take a look at their current situation.

Bank quake?! Is Deutsche Bank affected? Desert Gold and Barrick Gold as safe havens!
Europe could be facing a new banking quake. The reason for this lies in French government bonds. Since the French President called for new elections, one has been able to read a lot about a possible shift to the right, but the real problems have hardly been reported so far. France's national debt ratio is 110% of gross domestic product, making it the highest in Europe. French bonds are worth less because risk premiums have risen by almost 60%. As a result, interest rates are rising, and accordingly, the value of government bonds is falling. As a result, all banks that hold these government bonds are suffering book losses. Deutsche Bank could also be affected by this. Additionally, we are looking at gold companies that are considered safe havens.
