Plug Power causes hydrogen tremor - Will dynaCERT and Daimler Truck benefit?
For a long time, hydrogen was considered a real alternative to fossil fuels, especially in freight transport, as refueling times were significantly shorter than electric trucks, and the range was often greater. However, this requires suitable infrastructure and a sufficient supply of green hydrogen. Plug Power aims to provide this infrastructure. However, the Company may run out of money before achieving this goal. This creates opportunities for providers of alternative solutions, such as dynaCERT's HydraGEN™ technology, which enables fuel savings and reduces emissions. Daimler Truck could also benefit from the current situation with its electric trucks. We take a closer look at all three companies.

Hydrogen failed! Opportunities for JinkoSolar, Saturn Oil + Gas and Nordex
When Plug Power, the largest company in the new hydrogen technology, announces that it will likely run out of money in 12 months, it is a bombshell for the entire industry. If the big player cannot become profitable, there appear to be technological problems. The rollout is likely to take longer. But the energy problems worldwide still exist. This increases the opportunities for solar energy, the oil industry and possibly wind power. We look at one company from each sector and examine their future prospects.

Deutsche Bank, Globex Mining, Barrick Gold - Enthusiasm for gold is back
Despite several interest rate hikes, the price of gold has recently risen to over USD 2,000 again. Even though the latest increase coincided with the attack on Israel, this is unlikely to be the reason for it. Instead, the high demand from central banks is responsible for the steady gold price. Within the first 9 months, the central banks bought a whopping 800 tons of gold. That is a new record. The geopolitical tensions could also turn more and more private individuals into so-called gold bugs, who are making provisions for crises and assuming that gold will continue to rise in the long term. As the Fed has paused interest rates, this could give the gold price a further boost.

BioNTech and Bayer under pressure - Defence Therapeutics, on the other hand, with good results. Where is it worth investing?
There are currently big losers in the pharma and biotech sector among the companies that were the biggest beneficiaries of the Coronavirus Crisis. Sales at Pfizer/BioNTech are plummeting, and the entire sector is under pressure. In addition, there are patent disputes and increasing cost pressures from health insurance companies, especially in Europe. There are also high bureaucratic hurdles in the EU, meaning that more and more specialists prefer to emigrate to North America. Bayer's pharmaceuticals division is doing well, but the Company is struggling with the legal disputes surrounding the Monsanto takeover. In contrast to the first two companies mentioned, the news from Defence Therapeutics is consistently positive. We examine where it is worth getting in.

K+S, First Phosphate, Volkswagen - Phosphate: From fertilizer to high-tech application
Phosphate is an important nutrient for plants and animals and is used in agriculture as a fertilizer. It is also used in the food industry as an additive. Recently, however, the raw material has been needed in the high-tech environment. Battery manufacturers have an increased need for phosphate to produce lithium iron phosphate batteries, which are already used in some electric vehicles. The phosphate content in these batteries contributes to their stability and durability. If this technology becomes standard in all electric vehicles, demand will increase dramatically. So today, we take a look at fertilizer producer K+S, introduce a future producer in First Phosphate, and look at how Volkswagen is progressing in the area of electromobility.

Power Nickel, Mercedes-Benz, BYD - No electromobility without nickel
Nickel has undergone a remarkable transformation in recent years and has become a key component of electromobility. While the demand for environmentally friendly vehicles is steadily increasing, nickel is becoming increasingly important as an indispensable component in batteries. Nickel contributes to achieving higher energy density in batteries, which translates into greater driving range. It also allows for a reduction in the amount of cobalt in the batteries, making electric vehicles even more environmentally friendly. Therefore, we look at a future nickel producer and analyze Mercedes-Benz and BYD in terms of opportunities and risks.

Deutsche Bank, Blackrock Silver, SMA Solar - Which share offers the most potential for the portfolio?
The recent speech by the Chairman of the FED had a significant impact on gold and silver prices. There is speculation that the Federal Reserve may adopt a less restrictive stance in its monetary policy. How is Deutsche Bank reacting? Geopolitical tensions, particularly in the Middle East, are additionally cited as driving factors for the rise in precious metal prices. The gold-to-silver ratio is around 86 to 1, indicating that gold has performed better than silver so far. There is catch-up potential for silver here. What does this mean for Blackrock Silver? The metal is used in the jewellery industry, electronics production, and the solar industry, which is currently growing strongly. We, therefore, take a look at SMA Solar.

BioNTech, Cardiol Therapeutics, Bayer - Redefining the frontiers of medicine
The biotech and pharmaceutical sector is playing an increasingly important role in our society. This can be attributed primarily to demographic change, as people worldwide are getting older and older. As life expectancy increases, so does the prevalence of age-related diseases such as cancer and heart disease. These two disease categories place a significant burden on healthcare systems and require innovative solutions for diagnosis, treatment and prevention. After Corona, this could be where the next global blockbuster is developed. We look at three interesting candidates.
