Commerzbank, Globex Mining, Vonovia - Interest Rates, Commodities, Real Estate - Where is the most potential?
When it comes to investing one's money, investors have various options. Personal preferences and different risk tolerances play a crucial role in decision-making.

The third option would be real estate, the ownership of which is equated with value stability and protection against inflation.

Evotec, Defense Metals, PayPal - There is movement here. Where is it worth getting in?
In the dynamic environment of the stock market, it is often significant movements in individual shares that attract the attentive eye of investors.

For the savvy investor, this might be the opportune moment when promising entry opportunities reveal themselves. However, caution is advised: Only those prepared to look behind the scenes and analyze the factors behind the volatility can truly profit from market movements.

Bayer, Defence Therapeutics, Pfizer - Buckle up for the rebound
As the end of the year approaches, the savvy equity investor begins to optimize their equity portfolio for tax purposes. During this time, investors are particularly keen to review their investments and make strategic adjustments to minimize the tax burden. This approach, often referred to as "tax-loss harvesting" or "loss offsetting", involves the clever realization of losses in order to reduce capital gains tax due on profits made in the same year. This means that shares that have not performed so well over the course of the year are often sold off again in December. In the new year, the selling pressure disappears, and the shares can start their rebound. Today, we are looking at three potential candidates.
