Blackrock Silver, K+S, Barrick Gold - China first!
The Chinese government is demonstrating with all its might who has the last word. The regulation of industries and business models, which, as recently seen in the Chinese education sector, destroys the existence of companies and has weighed heavily on Chinese stocks in recent days. If the situation continues to escalate, it could easily negatively color the world's stock markets' mood. That is when it is worth looking at precious metals stocks, as they usually benefit disproportionately from rising commodity prices in times of crisis. Who will come out on top?

BioNTech, Cardiol Therapeutics, CureVac - What is next?
Are you smiling or shaking your head? Both are easily understandable reactions that investors might have in light of the latest statements from the Deutsches Aktien Institut (DAI). The DAI calls for better conditions for IPOs of growth companies to prevent such companies from migrating to foreign stock exchanges, as happened with BioNTech, among others. "Especially companies with specialized business models and high financing needs are dependent on foreign investors," explained Uta-Bettina von Altenbockum. However, this is not a new phenomenon either. Other countries have been creating better framework conditions for corporations and better tax incentives for investors for a long time. Own goal. What opportunities are there?

Endeavour Silver, Aztec Minerals, ThyssenKrupp - Spoilt for choice: silver, gold or steel?
Despite recent setbacks in commodity prices and share prices, most experts believe that the current commodity bull market will continue for some time. The drivers are likely to be the global economic stimulus programs to overcome the consequences of the Corona Crisis, the climate crisis and the associated need for an energy turnaround, as well as the Chinese economy's continuing hunger for raw materials. The Chinese recently announced their intention to liquidate raw material reserves to stop the market price rally, putting a damper on some raw material prices. Still, many analysts believe this is more likely to be a short-term flash in the pan, given the overall situation. Below are three favorably valued stocks with which investors can profit from commodities.
