Nel ASA, dynaCERT, Plug Power - Hydrogen as the problem solver in the energy transition
Hydrogen is essential to the energy transition because it can solve many of today's problems. One of these problems is that wind and solar energy are difficult to plan. Since they produce irregularly, the surplus on sunny days or windy days must be stored. This is how green hydrogen is produced, which can solve the problem of fossil fuels in the field of mobility solutions. Current electric solutions are not yet convincing, especially for freight transport, but this is where most CO2 is produced. With hydrogen, vehicles have more range and, most importantly, shorter charging times. We look at three companies that have built their business using hydrogen.

Defense Metals, Rheinmetall, Encavis - New technologies cannot do without this critical raw material
What do metal alloys, magnets, phosphors, ceramics, glass, catalysts and chemical processes need to function well? Rare earths - a critical raw material that is primarily processed in China. Without this raw material, there are no smartphones, computers, wind turbines or electric vehicles. There have been tensions between China and the United States for some time. If these tensions escalate and China stops its rare earth supplies, the Western world will have a problem. As demand for rare earths continues to rise, it is important to ensure sufficient supplies to meet the growing demands of the technology industry.

BioNTech, Pfizer, Cardiol Therapeutics, Bayer - Biotech stocks facing a revival?
The BIO Deutschland association represents the German biotech industry. According to an announcement on January 18, financing of biotech companies plummeted by 2/3 in 2022. Overall, the sector raised only EUR 920 million in equity. During the Corona pandemic, many biotech stocks did well. Subsequently, profit-taking occurred and rising interest rates put additional pressure on stocks. That could change in 2023. Meanwhile, some companies are valued low, and so these companies appear on the radar of investors from the United States. According to Handelsblatt, Water Street, an investment company focused on pharma and biotech, has already invested EUR 1 billion, mainly in Germany. A total of EUR 6 billion is to be invested.

The past few years have been an El Dorado for the real estate sector. But since interest rates started rising, dark clouds have gathered over the real estate market.

Almonty Industries, ThyssenKrupp, Volkswagen - Tungsten: The raw material for high-tech applications!
Tungsten is a rare and valuable metal with a high melting point, hardness, corrosion resistance and good electrical and thermal conductivity. It is widely used in industry, national defence and high-tech applications. An important use of tungsten is in alloys, especially steel, where it increases the melting point, hardness and wear resistance. Now applications could be expanded even further. Researchers have developed a cathode material made from a molybdenum tungsten niobate alloy that can be used to charge electric cars in minutes.

BP, Saturn Oil + Gas, Shell - Is a new price cap for Russian oil coming?
The price cap of USD 60 for a barrel of Russian oil has been in place for just over a month. According to high-ranking diplomats from both countries, Poland and Lithuania already want to lower the current maximum price once again. It is not yet clear whether the sanctions will actually have any effect. Russian Deputy Prime Minister Novak said Russia had no export problems despite the sanctions. Positive signals for oil came from the US, as inflation continues to weaken and inflation expectations also fell for the fourth month straight. In addition, according to energy traders, demand from China and Europe is picking up. We, therefore, take a closer look at three oil producers.
