Mercedes-Benz, XXIX Metal, D-Wave Quantum - Copper shortage: Is a bottleneck looming due to new technologies?
Copper is an elementary industrial raw material whose importance is steadily increasing due to technological innovations and global megatrends. In particular, the rapid expansion of electromobility, the development of quantum computers, and artificial intelligence are driving demand to new heights. Electric vehicles require many times more copper than conventional vehicles with combustion engines due to batteries, engines and charging infrastructure. At the same time, demand is increasing in data centres and networks that rely on high-performance cables and cooling systems. Experts predict that global copper demand will increase by millions of tonnes by 2030 – and with it, new challenges for production and supply.

RWE, F3 Uranium, Super Micro Computer – Profiting from the world's growing hunger for energy
Global energy demand is skyrocketing, fuelled by technological progress and the enormous appetite for electricity for electric vehicles and AI-powered data centres, whose consumption could more than double by 2028. At the same time, the energy transition faces unresolved challenges: Weather-dependent wind and solar energy supply electricity in an unreliable manner, bureaucratic hurdles slow down the expansion, and without sufficient storage, alternatives for the base load are lacking. Given these developments, nuclear power is increasingly seen as the only reliable option for both satisfying the growing hunger for energy and ensuring a stable and climate-friendly energy supply in the long term.

TUI share takes off – When will Almonty Industries and Bayer follow suit?
At the end of 2024, the stock market is characterised by a dynamic spirit of optimism, driven by encouraging share price developments and optimistic future prospects. While some companies are showing impressive share price increases, it remains to be seen whether this positive trend will also spread to other sectors or companies. Global developments such as technological advances, sustainable investment strategies and geopolitical dynamics shape the market environment just as much as macroeconomic factors. In particular, interest rate cuts and declining inflation create tailwinds for investors.

JinkoSolar, Myriad Uranium, Plug Power – How the energy crisis can be solved
During the recent dark doldrums in Germany at the beginning of November 2024, the challenge of driving forward the energy transition exclusively with renewable sources once again became clear. Days with minimal wind and solar power production forced the country to rely heavily on fossil fuel power plants and expensive electricity imports. At the same time, energy demand is growing rapidly due to factors like electric mobility, digitalization, and industrial transformation. Given these dynamics, the debate over CO2-neutral, baseload-capable nuclear power plants is coming back into focus. Unlike wind and solar energy, these nuclear power plants provide reliable electricity and could make a decisive contribution to ensuring energy supply while meeting climate targets. We look at three companies and analyze what it takes to make these technologies a success.

Mercedes-Benz, 123fahrschule, BYD – Between crisis and recovery
Electromobility in Germany is in crisis, while other markets, especially China, are experiencing strong growth. In 2024, new registrations of electric vehicles in Germany have fallen by more than 26%. The reasons for this include the phasing out of state subsidies, high costs, and a limited range of affordable models. Despite this, demand for driving licenses is growing in Germany – a sign of an increasing need for individual mobility despite high costs. The Chinese market is showing enormous momentum, with electric and plug-in hybrids accounting for over 50% of the market, supported by price reductions and political incentives. We take a look at two leading vehicle manufacturers and how 123fahrschule can benefit from the driving license boom.
