Deutsche Bank, Hong Lai Huat, Vonovia - Real estate market remains hot
The Federal Statistical Office announced on April 8: Construction prices were up 14.3% YOY in February. A nightmare for future builders. In addition, there are supply chain problems and a lack of tradesmen. The Ukraine conflict has also caused energy prices to skyrocket, which will cause additional price increases. Manufacturing, transportation, everything is getting more expensive. In March, inflation in Germany was 7.3%, the highest it has been in over 40 years. To break the spiral, the ECB would have to raise interest rates. Initially, this was planned for the 3rd quarter, but the pressure is growing as inflation rises faster and faster. Rising interest rates would be good for the banks. However, there is no relief in sight for the real estate market.

Barrick Gold, Ximen Mining, First Majestic Silver - Do precious metal stocks belong in the portfolio now?
Crises like the current Ukraine war or the steadily rising inflation are good for precious metals like gold and silver.

K+S, Barsele Minerals, Shell - Which commodity stocks belong in the portfolio?
Commodity prices are rising in almost all areas. To blame everything on the Ukraine conflict is too short-sighted. Fertilizer prices have significantly increased in the past year due to crop failures caused by natural disasters. Oil prices also began to rise last year. However, the sanctions against Russia gave the oil price a further significant tailwind. Gold has only been able to increase with the outbreak of the Ukraine war and is currently quoted at between USD 1,900 and 2,000. The high inflation should further increase the demand for gold. Today we look at three companies from the three sectors and analyze their potential.

BASF, Defense Metals, Rheinmetall - Shares that depend on rare earths
The Ukraine crisis has shown us how dependent we are on Russian energy imports. The German government now wants to step on the gas pedal even more for renewable energies. The problem is that new technologies such as electric vehicles or wind turbines almost always require rare earths. But rare earths are not only needed there; the defense industry needs these raw materials to optimize steel or as magnets in a wide variety of weapons technologies. But rare earths are also present in the household, in smartphones, notebooks and many other technological devices. Today we take a look at three companies around rare earths.

Plug Power, Perimeter Medical Imaging AI, JinkoSolar - Shares for the future
Since the Ukraine crisis at the latest, it has been clear that the energy policy will have to look different in the future. While the end of fossil fuels has been heralded before, the transition must now happen faster than initially planned. Hydrogen could play a major role in heavy-duty transportation and energy-intensive industries. In electricity, renewables such as wind and solar power are expected to play a key role. But there are promising developments not only in the energy sector but also in medical technology. Cancer is on the rise worldwide, and any development that helps fight it is welcome. Today we look at stocks from the hydrogen, medical technology and solar power sectors.

Infineon, Edison Lithium, BYD - Raw material shortage for electric cars
The shift from combustion engines to electric cars poses new challenges for production. An electric vehicle requires significantly more chips, more copper and more raw materials such as nickel and lithium for the batteries. Most recently, the nickel price climbed to over USD 100,000 per ton, partly due to the sanctions against Russia. But the price of lithium is rising. The demand for batteries is still significantly higher than the supply after the rethinking of the automotive industry. Today, we highlight two problem areas and look at an electric vehicle manufacturer.
