Orocobre, Manganese X Energy, First Cobalt - Indispensable companies for the energy turnaround
The 21st century will go down in history as the "electric century." While the 19th century was dominated by the steam engine and the 20th century by internal combustion engines, the climatic changes that we have helped to cause by burning fossil fuels are forcing us to rethink. Among other things, the focus is on the efficient storage of electrical energy produced without emissions. According to current research, certain raw materials will be indispensable for this purpose, including lithium, manganese and cobalt in addition to copper, silver and gold.

Kinross Gold, Troilus Gold, Endeavour Silver - US inflation boosts gold price
6.2% p.a. - The highest inflation figures for more than 30 years in the US has again prompted investors to stock up on the crisis currency gold. With a price of more than USD 1,860 per fine ounce, the 200-day moving average was overcome, and thus a significant mark was broken. How the gold price will continue will be decided not least by the upcoming publication of the consumer confidence index, inflation expectations and the reaction of the FED. However, one thing is certain: mining stocks can only benefit from the positive gold price development.

Triumph Gold, Barrick Gold, Rheinmetall - Precious metal stocks jump!
Despite persistently high inflation, the US Federal Reserve is still far from thinking about interest rate hikes. At least in the stimulus bond purchases, however, the central bankers will step on the brakes a little and, as of November, reduce the volume of currently USD 120 billion monthly by USD 10 billion each. The program will then end completely in the fall of 2022. In the wake of this decision, prices for precious metals rose. Gold rose above the important resistance of USD 1,800.

Lucid Group, Graphano Energy, Orocobre - The new eMobility and its children
It is expected that no more passenger cars with internal combustion engines will be allowed to be registered in the EU from 2035. The associated non-EU country Norway is exerting even more pressure: in the land of fjords and trolls, new vehicles with gasoline or diesel engines will be banned as early as 2025. The same applies to Great Britain: the end of the combustion engine is to be brought forward to 2035, perhaps even to 2030 and applies for light trucks up to 26 tons. With hydrogen technology still in its infancy, the world is currently focusing primarily on rechargeable batteries. Here, the capacity screw is increasingly being turned to extend ranges and shorten charging times.

Osino Resources, Barrick, Newmont - Now comes the countermovement!
Inflation has been rising significantly for months. In October, consumer prices in the euro area rose by 4.1% YOY, the highest level in over 13 years. In Germany, the inflation rate even climbed to 4.5%! The last time this happened was in October 1993. Central banks dismiss this as a temporary phenomenon. The head of Deutsche Bank, Christian Sewing, made this clear a few days ago with his statements in the Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung. The manager vigorously contradicts the wishful thinking of a temporary phenomenon and calls on the central banks to act. Given these general conditions and prospects, investors can protect their money in the best possible way by investing in tangible assets such as shares, real estate, commodities, or precious metals.
