Barrick Gold, Desert Gold, Commerzbank – Falling interest rates drive the price of gold
Recently, the price of gold reached record highs as interest rates continue to fall worldwide. This economic trend reflects deeper uncertainties and adjustments in global fiscal policy. A record high in gold often indicates that investors seek refuge in supposedly safe investments in times of economic turmoil and rising inflation. At the same time, falling interest rates represent central banks' efforts to stimulate economic growth and encourage investment. This dynamic interaction between the gold price and interest rates raises many questions about the long-term economic prospects. Therefore, today, we are looking at two gold companies and will examine the interest-sensitive Commerzbank.

Daimler Truck, dynaCERT, Plug Power – There is hope for hydrogen
Hydrogen technology faces similar challenges to electromobility. Yet, there are reasons for hope. It is not necessarily a choice between electric or hydrogen; a combination of both is possible, as demonstrated by the introduction of ultra-fast fuel cell charging stations for electric vehicles. In parallel, the German government is promoting this green revolution, supported by pioneering industry events such as ACHEMA 2024. Companies like Enapter AG are celebrating remarkable revenue increases. Everyone agrees on one thing: the environment must be protected. Solutions will be showcased at the upcoming IAA Transportation in Hanover and the 9th Supplier Marketplace Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technology in Berlin.

However, this could be a huge opportunity for the beleaguered automotive industry: Cheaper financing for consumers makes car loans more attractive and leads to rising sales figures. Lower interest rates could rev up the car manufacturers' engines and get the industry back on track. We will therefore take a closer look at Commerzbank, a precious metals and copper company, and finally, Volkswagen.
