Commerzbank, Desert Gold, Coinbase - Which assets retain their value in a crash?
Following the financial crash, investors are increasingly seeking safe and profitable investment opportunities. Traditional savings methods at banks offer security but often only yield low returns. Gold, on the other hand, has been considered a crisis-proof store of value for centuries and experiences a resurgence in uncertain times. At the same time, cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin are gaining popularity, both because of their high return potential and their decentralized nature. We therefore take a look at one company from each sector and see how the shares have reacted in the latest setback.

Daimler Truck, dynaCERT, Plug Power - Electric on the decline! Is this the hour of hydrogen?
In recent years, electromobility has been regarded as the undisputed driving force behind the global transport revolution. However, recent developments paint a different picture: stagnating sales figures and growing challenges in the supply of raw materials raise the question of whether the era of electric vehicles has reached its peak. As a result, the focus is shifting to another alternative drive system: hydrogen. With increased investment and technological advances in the hydrogen sector, the question arises as to whether the time has come for hydrogen as an energy source to experience its major breakthrough and win the race for sustainable mobility.

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.

Daimler Truck, First Hydrogen, Nikola - Green logistics companies in focus
With the aim of promoting greener technologies and meeting legal requirements, logistics companies are faced with the choice between electric and hydrogen drives for the future. Many countries have introduced strict emissions regulations to reduce CO2 emissions and minimize the use of fossil fuels. While electric drives impress with their high energy efficiency and low operating costs, hydrogen drives score points with their fast refueling and long range. We have picked out three companies, some of which are pursuing different approaches, and take a look at their current situation.
