Plug Power, First Hydrogen, Daimler Truck - Bringing tomorrow's winners into the portfolio today
The energy transition has only just begun. The farewell to fossil fuels is a done deal. Alongside electrification, green hydrogen is expected to play a crucial role in the energy of the future, generated from renewable sources such as wind and solar power. Here, the infrastructure of tomorrow needs to be planned and implemented today. On July 12, the German transmission system operators presented their plan for a hydrogen network for Germany that is to cover a length of 11,200 km. In addition to connecting industrial sites, the plan also calls for the creation of a charging infrastructure for vehicles, as the transportation industry is primarily responsible for CO2 emissions. Investors who position themselves correctly early can profit from the upcoming hydrogen boom.

K+S, Almonty Industries, Rock Tech Lithium - Europe arms itself against shortage situation
European industry is transforming, with the ban on combustion engines from 2035 being just one example. The energy transition is creating an increased need for critical materials and raw materials to make the changeover in industry possible. The European Commission has also recognized this and launched a Critical Raw Materials Act (CRMA). This is intended to optimize and diversify supplies. Recycling and research into resource efficiency are also on the agenda. We, therefore, look at three companies involved in critical raw materials.

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.
