Nvidia, Saturn Oil + Gas, PayPal - Money printing machines for the portfolio
In an economic landscape that is becoming increasingly volatile and unpredictable, the movement of interest rates plays a crucial role for companies and investors alike.

Instead, companies that generate solid profits are increasingly becoming the focus of investors. Investors are now looking more at profitability than possible future prospects. We have picked out three companies that are making money and are expected to continue to do so in the future.

Nordex, Prospera Energy, RWE - Tomorrow's energy as an opportunity for the portfolio
As the world increasingly focuses on transitioning to a low-carbon future, a complex picture of tomorrow's energy supply is emerging - a finely balanced mosaic of renewables, the gradual withdrawal from coal and the continued need for oil. Solar energy, wind power and hydropower form the backbone of renewables, and governments and companies worldwide are relying on their expansion to reduce emissions. At the same time, coal-fired power plants are on the verge of being phased out, as they are among the biggest emitters in the climate balance sheet. Despite the transformation, oil continues to play an important role in the global economy. It is an energy source that will still be needed in the long term for the manufacture of products, in transportation and in sectors where alternatives are not yet fully developed.
