  • Helium
  • Biotechnology
  • Food

Despite all the various challenges in today's world, such as geopolitical tensions or inflation, the stock market indices have managed to climb upwards. Investors are faced with a crucial question: Where is the hidden value in a market that has already broken many records? The answer could lie in those stocks that have so far stood on the sidelines of the great rally - the silent but potentially strong performers waiting for their rebound. This strategy shifts the focus away from the usual suspects who have already posted substantial gains to stocks that are ready to initiate their own rebound, potentially unlocking significant value for patient investors in the process. We have identified three such candidates.

BYD, Carbon Done Right Developments, Plug Power - Ecological responsibility becomes a success factor

  • Sustainability
  • Electromobility
  • renewableenergies

Companies are faced with the urgent task of improving their carbon footprint and paving the way to climate neutrality. In an age in which environmental protection and sustainability are increasingly coming into focus, companies are called upon to act proactively and make their contribution to climate protection. Effective strategies to achieve this goal include a range of measures, from increasing energy efficiency and switching to renewable energy to optimizing transport routes and promoting a circular economy. If these steps are insufficient because the Company is too energy-hungry, the unavoidable emissions must be offset by investing in climate protection projects. Every climate-neutral company has a competitive advantage, making the achievement of this goal quite lucrative.

Encavis, Manuka Resources, Rheinmetall - Vanadium: From metal to energy source

  • Mining
  • gold
  • Vanadium
  • armaments
  • renewableenergies

The energy transition presents us with the challenge of efficiently storing renewable energy. A key raw material in this process is vanadium, which is used in vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFBs) and is mainly known for its role in steel production. These batteries are characterized by their longevity, with up to 20,000 charging cycles without any significant loss of performance, and their safety as they are non-flammable. In addition, their scalability allows them to be used both in large-scale grid storage and in the private sector. By storing electricity from wind and solar power, VRFBs are a critical element in supporting the transition to a more sustainable energy supply and ensuring the availability of steel alloys that can also be used in the defense industry.

  • Uranium

Calls for a U-turn on the nuclear energy issue are getting louder in Germany. Above all, the AfD, the CDU/CSU, and the FDP, as members of the traffic light government, are calling for a resumption of nuclear power generation. In Europe, Germany's energy policy has already caused considerable head-shaking. Nuclear power can shoulder the base load, does not produce CO2 emissions and is cheaper and less volatile than renewable energies. Many countries agree on one thing: we need to move away from fossil fuels. In the Czech Republic, plans are underway to build 4 new nuclear power plants, and in Poland, the Netherlands and Sweden, there is no longer interest in phasing out nuclear power. It will be interesting to see how Germany's struggle for energy develops.

Plug Power, First Hydrogen, Daimler Truck - Hydrogen: the game changer in transportation

  • Hydrogen
  • Electromobility
  • fuelcell
  • Batteries

The rapid development of electromobility has undoubtedly brought many advantages. However, there are some questions regarding its suitability for use in commercial transportation. The issues concerning the weight of the batteries, the long recharging time, and the limited range cannot be ignored. In view of these facts, it is questionable whether electric vehicles can completely replace diesel fuel in commercial transportation. There is a need for further technological advances, such as hydrogen propulsion. Although hydrogen has not yet received the same level of attention as electric vehicles, its potential suggests that it can solve the current problems.

The world is full of economic uncertainty and geopolitical tensions. These are ideal conditions for gold, which is still considered a safe haven. There are now several factors that point to a sustained upswing in gold prices. One factor is the increased involvement of central banks, which are increasing their reserves to an extent not seen for decades. Another factor is the discussion within the BRICS nations about introducing a new currency backed by gold as a counterweight to the dominant US dollar. Therefore, today, we look at two gold companies and shed light on Renk, a representative of the defense industry, which is also experiencing golden times.
