Almonty Industries, K+S, Airbus - Rising demand will be reflected in share price increases!

  • Tungsten

The metal tungsten has special properties that make it unique as a material. The metal is highly resistant to corrosion, as heavy as gold and, as tungsten carbide, as hard as diamond. In addition, at 3,422 degrees Celsius, it has the highest melting point of all metals. However, processing it is expensive and time-consuming. At the moment, researchers in Karlsruhe are working on processing tungsten using 3D printing methods. Due to its unique properties, tungsten plays a vital role in high-temperature applications in energy and lighting technology and space travel and medical technology. How can investors profit from the rising demand? We will show you.

Pure Extraction, Ballard Power, SFC Energy - H2 mobility for commercial vehicles: These are the winners!

  • Hydrogen

The advance of e-mobility associated with the energy transition and the need to decarbonize the economy does not stop at the commercial vehicle segment. However, the battery technology currently gaining acceptance in this sector has decisive disadvantages: it is expensive, has a heavy weight, and charging is time-consuming. For this reason, alternatives are feverishly being sought. Can hydrogen fill this gap? In contrast to suppliers like BYD, who focus primarily on battery mobility, the following companies concentrate fully on hydrogen technology. Who is in the running?

Siemens Energy, QMines, AUTO1 Group - Watch out: invest in the best stock market newcomers!

  • Gold

IPO underpricing measures the difference between the price subscribers have to pay for new issues, i.e. the issue price and the prices then traded on the stock exchange. This phenomenon was first addressed in studies some 50 years ago. In sum, IPO underpricing exists worldwide. However, depending on the market phase, country and market capitalization size, this effect can look very different. It is, therefore, wrong to conclude that every IPO is a success. We separate the wheat from the chaff. Which stock is a clear buy?

BYD, EuroSports Global, Varta - Electric music is playing in Asia

  • Electromobility

Electromobility is considered the central building block of a sustainable and climate-friendly transportation system based on renewable energies. There are currently around 70 electric vehicle models from German manufacturers on the market. In 2020, the stock of passenger cars with electric drives in Germany comprised only 137,000 vehicles, according to the Federal Motor Transport Authority. The federal government wants to significantly boost the market with purchase incentives by the end of 2025, extensive investments in expanding the charging infrastructure and tax incentives. However, if you look at the global situation, it quickly becomes evident that Asia dominates the action. We introduce you to three stocks that offer great opportunities. Who has the best cards?

Standard Lithium, Osino Resources, Ballard Power - These stocks are going through the roof

When German investors think of Canadian stocks, two topics usually come to mind: commodities and cannabis.

But there are also interesting investments outside the two sectors mentioned. So who makes the race?
