BYD, dynaCERT, Plug Power - Sustainable shares for the portfolio
The end of fossil fuels is inevitable. The only question is how quickly we can make the transition. And the answer to that question will determine the extent of the impact of climate change. Last year alone, more than USD 6 billion was pledged to phase out fossil fuels. And this trend will only intensify. The Paris Agreement, signed by nearly 200 countries in 2016, set a goal of limiting global warming to below 2°C. Vehicles with internal combustion engines are major emitters of emissions. If we succeed in reducing CO2 emissions here, we will be closer to achieving the targets. Today we take a look at three companies that are helping to make mobility more environmentally friendly.

BioNTech, Meta Materials, and Amazon - Industry leaders belong in the portfolio
In 2021, the stock market world was still in order - it had been going nowhere but up for years. That was the peak of the stock hype, and many top dogs in their industries were very expensive from a fundamental point of view. That has changed significantly this year. Due to the Ukraine conflict, rising interest rates and ever-higher inflation, many industry leaders had to make significant losses. Even a drop of 50% was not uncommon. Yet the long-term outlook is good. Now that the stock market is slowly regaining momentum, it is worth taking a look at three companies that are leaders in their field.

JinkoSolar, TubeSolar, Nordex - Biden's promise brings tailwind
The 2022 UN Climate Change Conference in Sharm El-Sheikh has been underway since November 6. UN Secretary-General Guterres said, "We are on the highway to climate hell with our foot on the gas pedal." If the world wants to make a difference, the major polluters must significantly reduce their CO2 emissions. The US, which ranks second only to China, seems willing to do so. US President Biden promised that the US will achieve the climate targets set by 2030. According to this, CO2 emissions will fall by 50% compared to 2005. Biden referred to the Inflation Control Act, from which around USD 370 billion is to flow into climate protection. Renewable energies play a major role here. Today we take a look at three companies from the sector.

Barrick Gold, Desert Gold, K+S - Undervalued shares
The stock market is not always rational. Depending on the market phase, private investors in particular often act irrationally. If all stocks are rising, the fear of missing something comes up and investors buy, although they would be better off waiting for a setback. If the indices go down, many investors sell near the lows, even though they have quality stocks in their portfolio. As a smart investor, one should be like Buffet and buy when others panic. The last few months have been difficult in the stock market, and there have been some downward exaggerations. So today, we look at three companies that have been sold off recently but have good assets.

BioNTech, Cardiol Therapeutics, Bayer - Strong growth in the pharmaceutical industry over the coming years
Demographic change is bringing new customers to pharmaceutical and biotech companies. Worldwide, the population is getting older, and with it, the number of patients with dementia, cancer and heart disease. Experts estimate that the population over 65 will increase steadily until 2050. The 'pill gap' will start to have a real impact from 2030, and then the proportion of the aging population will rise again in proportion. Accordingly, all healthcare companies will see growth as the number of customers grows. So today, we look at three companies committed to better patient health.

BioNTech, XPhyto Therapeutics, MorphoSys - Biotech stocks facing a renaissance?
While the Corona pandemic plunged many companies into crisis, the biotech sector was the big winner. The fastest vaccine developers raked in record profits and are still profiting from vaccine orders today. Meanwhile, the Corona Crisis is no longer the focus of attention in many parts of the world. This is one of the reasons why the NASDAQ Biotech Index suffered significant losses until the end of September. In some cases, the shares of biotechnology companies were trading below their cash levels. Since October, things have been on the upswing. Reason enough to take a look at three interesting biotech companies.

Deutsche Bank, Globex Mining, Vonovia - Covering basic investments through shares with potential
The experts always advise diversification in one's portfolio. Add a few shares, some precious metals and real estate holdings, and the portfolio is well-positioned. Nowadays, owning real estate is not so easy with the high prices, and purchasing precious metals is subject to certain limits in Germany. It is therefore easier to map these basic investments via shares. To do this, investors need a securities account at a bank, and all options are open to them. Therefore, today we look at Deutsche Bank as an equity investment, Globex Mining for the precious metals or commodities sector and Vonovia as a real estate investment.

BASF, Tocvan Ventures, Alibaba - These shares are making headway
Now that the price of gas has fallen below EUR 100, the economy can look more positively into the future. The significantly lower prices should also lead to lower inflation rates in the long term. The markets are already on the upswing because, in addition to the favorable gas prices, the yields on government bonds have also fallen recently. On October 25, the tech giants Microsoft and Google presented their figures, which, however, disappointed. There is also a great deal going on with other stocks. Therefore, we have picked out three companies to look at today.

Daimler Truck, First Hydrogen, Plug Power - Transportation industry in upheaval: Which shares will profit?
In the EU, a quarter of all CO2 emissions are caused by road traffic. Here, the transport industry, with its diesel engines, plays a major role. If the ambitious climate targets are to be achieved by 2030, the industry will have to undergo a major transformation. Road freight transport alone is expected to reduce emissions by 26% by the end of the decade. For a long time, electromobility was seen as the solution, but it is becoming increasingly clear that hydrogen will also be an option. It always depends on the use case, and at the same time, the infrastructure must be in place for the technology in question. So today, we look at three companies that could benefit from fleet modernization.

K+S, Barsele Minerals, Barrick Gold - Are the good times coming after the bad?
While the gold price is under pressure from the strong US dollar and rising interest rates, European fertilizer producers are struggling with high gas prices, representing almost 90% of variable costs in production. However, the first positive trends can be observed in both markets. In gold, the critical support level of USD 1620 has held, and there, the market bounced dynamically upwards. Fertilizer prices rose in September in almost all segments. Reason enough to take a closer look at two gold companies and the German fertilizer producer K+S.
