Since 2009, he has been exclusively involved in the capital markets, where he was able to gain experience as a day and swing trader, in investor relations and at board level. He was able to live out his passion for numbers in the controlling department of a securities trading house.
For him, fundamental analysis paired with the correct reading of the price action of a market provides the basis for successful trading.

TUI, Defence Therapeutics, Plug Power - Who has the potential for a rally?
The search for stocks with the potential for a rally is an exciting and promising task for investors. There are several approaches and strategies to find appropriate stocks. One commonly used approach is fundamental analysis, which examines a company's financial health, business models, growth prospects and other fundamental factors.

Nel ASA, dynaCERT, Nikola - Stopping climate change with hydrogen
Climate protection is an important issue of our time. One of the biggest challenges in combating climate change is reducing transportation emissions. Although many measures are being taken to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, they are still one of the main contributors to global climate change. One possible solution to this problem may lie in the use of hydrogen as a fuel for vehicles. Therefore, we start today by looking at Nel ASA as a producer and then at two companies with solutions ready for the transportation industry.

Barrick Gold, Desert Gold, Lanxess - After setbacks, is now a good time to buy?
An old merchant's rule states: The profit lies in the purchase. This wisdom can also be applied to stock market trading. As an investor, waiting for a setback before buying is always advisable. This avoids the danger of entering at a high. After the start of the banking crisis, the gold price soared, and those who bought then are now at a disadvantage. With the recent decline in the gold price, there may be an interesting opportunity to enter the market again. We, therefore, take a look at two gold companies. Finally, we will analyze Lanxess, whose shares recently suffered heavy losses.

Bayer, BioNxt Solutions, BioNTech - Biotech facing a rebound?
Due to the Corona pandemic, the pharmaceutical and biotech sector received a lot of attention. Many investors invested too late and could hardly benefit from the significant upward movements. After the hype, a sense of disillusionment set in. The vaccine manufacturers felt the effects because as soon as the pandemic subsided, the stock market also went down. Large and small companies experienced sell-offs, with some trading below their cash reserves. These low prices led to a wave of takeovers. Most recently, Novartis snapped up the biotech company Chinook for up to USD 3.5 billion. Therefore, today, we look at three companies from the healthcare sector.

First Phosphate, Mercedes-Benz, BYD - 1,500 km range through battery revolution
Until now, solid-state batteries were considered too expensive for electric mobility and could be recharged much less often than today's lithium-ion batteries. Now, thanks to a new technology, car manufacturer Toyota has developed a battery that can be recharged within 10 minutes and has a range of up to 1,500 km. This instantly puts Toyota's electric vehicles in the spotlight. Until now, the Company has been a niche player in the electric car market and has been more successful with hybrid vehicles. Today we look at First Phosphate, which aims to supply phosphate for lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries, and we finish by looking at two car manufacturers.

Volkswagen, Defense Metals, Rheinmetall - Dependence on China
Without rare earths, the energy transition fails. There would be neither electric cars nor wind turbines without the critical raw material, which has long been on the list of critical metals in Europe and the USA. But these applications are only the tip of the iceberg because this metal is also needed in the defense industry, smartphones, MRIs and many other high-tech devices. China processes the mined rare earths and has a near monopoly. Now that demand is increasing due to the energy transition and the BRICS countries are slowly breaking away from the US, alternatives should be sought. Today, we look at three companies that cannot do without rare earths.

Deutsche Telekom, Saturn Oil + Gas, TUI - Which share has the most potential?
On June 14, all eyes were on the FED decision. Even though the decision impacts the market as a whole, the analysis of individual stocks is important to make sound investment decisions. The approach can vary, from a fundamental analysis to a technical analysis, a ratio-based decision to a qualitative analysis. In addition, one can take into account the recommendations of financial analysts. In the end, it is important to conduct one's own research and only invest when convinced about a stock. Today we look at three companies and analyze their potential in more detail.

Standard Lithium, Grid Metals, Volkswagen - Lithium is essential for electromobility
Electric vehicle sales continue to outpace sales expectations, driving demand for lithium, nickel and other battery raw materials. At the same time, the supply of these raw materials faces challenges, including technical problems with new types of lithium deposits, permitting procedures and social issues. This situation could lead to a 5-6 year opportunity for sustained higher lithium prices. First-to-market projects can achieve significant market valuation, so companies are focused on rapid implementation and revenue generation. We, therefore, look at two lithium companies and examine how Volkswagen plans to address the challenges in procurement.

Barrick Gold, Defiance Silver, and First Majestic Silver - Precious metals in focus after the fall of the debt ceiling
The US has decided to suspend its debt ceiling until 2025. The markets reacted happily to this news and marked new highs for the year. But is this decision really a good thing? It took the US over 200 years to reach USD 2 trillion in debt. Now it will add 2 trillion every 18 months. With higher interest rates, refinancing this debt could lead to a financial crisis. Will fiat money still be worth much then? Chances are good that the price of gold and silver will be driven up further in this way. We, therefore, take a look at three gold and silver companies.

ThyssenKrupp, Power Nickel, Varta - Is nickel becoming scarce?
Nickel is a versatile metal that plays an important role in various industries. One of the largest applications of nickel is in stainless steel production, where it provides hardness, corrosion resistance and heat resistance. Nickel has also always been a crucial factor for batteries. Since the rise of electromobility, the metal has gained even more significance. Due to its ability to store high energy densities, it contributes to improving performance. Using it in the cathode achieves higher capacities and longer lifetimes, which is essential for electric cars. Given the growing trend towards electromobility, nickel is becoming an important raw material for the energy transition.
