Manuka Resources, JinkoSolar, BYD - Vanadium, a critical raw material in the energy transition
The energy transition is a crucial step towards a sustainable energy supply. The storage of solar energy and the optimization of batteries for electric vehicles are important topics in this context. Vanadium can play a key role in these areas. The critical raw material is used in the battery industry as a cathode material in redox flow batteries, primarily for energy storage. Whether vanadium will also find its way into batteries for electric vehicles remains to be seen. Originally, the material was used as an important alloying metal in structural and tool steels to refine the steel.

Pfizer, Cardiol Therapeutics, Bayer - Pharma facing turnaround despite drug shortages?
In mid-June, there was a shortage of 470 prescription drugs in Germany, according to the Federal Institute for Drugs and Medical Devices. However, not only Germany is suffering from a shortage, but all of Europe. Once again, the dependence on China is the underlying cause. The EU is seeking countermeasures, but this will be challenging because capped prices, bureaucracy and rising energy costs make a location like Germany seem less attractive. At the same time, demographic change means that society needs the pharmaceutical industry more and more urgently. Therefore, we look at three companies that aim to heal sick people.

Plug Power, First Hydrogen, Daimler Truck - Bringing tomorrow's winners into the portfolio today
The energy transition has only just begun. The farewell to fossil fuels is a done deal. Alongside electrification, green hydrogen is expected to play a crucial role in the energy of the future, generated from renewable sources such as wind and solar power. Here, the infrastructure of tomorrow needs to be planned and implemented today. On July 12, the German transmission system operators presented their plan for a hydrogen network for Germany that is to cover a length of 11,200 km. In addition to connecting industrial sites, the plan also calls for the creation of a charging infrastructure for vehicles, as the transportation industry is primarily responsible for CO2 emissions. Investors who position themselves correctly early can profit from the upcoming hydrogen boom.

Altech Advanced Materials, Mercedes-Benz, BYD - Electricity storage for the future
The automotive industry is facing a revolution as it focuses more and more on electric vehicles. However, better batteries are needed to meet market demands for range and charging time. Better storage options are important not only for electric vehicles but also for renewables. When green power is abundant, it must be stored to be ready at night. The development of more powerful batteries offers potential for investments with attractive returns. With that in mind, we take a look at a company that offers such solutions and analyze two automakers in more detail.

K+S, Almonty Industries, Rock Tech Lithium - Europe arms itself against shortage situation
European industry is transforming, with the ban on combustion engines from 2035 being just one example. The energy transition is creating an increased need for critical materials and raw materials to make the changeover in industry possible. The European Commission has also recognized this and launched a Critical Raw Materials Act (CRMA). This is intended to optimize and diversify supplies. Recycling and research into resource efficiency are also on the agenda. We, therefore, look at three companies involved in critical raw materials.

An old merchant's rule states: The profit lies in the purchase. This wisdom can also be applied to stock market trading. As an investor, waiting for a setback before buying is always advisable.
