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. Many companies from these two sectors are headquartered in one of the Canadian cities of Montreal, Vancouver or Toronto. The Canadian stock market accounts for 5% of the world's stock market capitalization, while the country holds only 0.5% of the world's population. But there are also interesting investments outside the two sectors mentioned. So who makes the race?

MorphoSys, Defence Therapeutics, Formycon - Biotechnology shares with great potential
In the wake of the corona pandemic, companies such as BioNTech, Pfizer and Moderna demonstrated how quickly and safely vaccines can be developed and mass-produced using innovative biotechnological processes. Biotech stocks have risen in favor again, even outside Covid-19. However, some stocks lag behind the price targets forecast by experts, while others are slowly moving (again) in the right direction. We look at three stocks that offer excellent opportunities at the current price level.

Barrick Gold, NSJ Gold, First Majestic Silver- Buy and stay patient
In Gold we trust - is the name of a publication that has been published since 2007 and has become a benchmark for interested gold investors. The authors believe that gold and silver have an excellent chance to climb to higher prices at the end of the current year. For the end of the decade, the experts forecast at least a price of USD 4,800 per ounce of gold. Given such optimistic forecasts, we will look below at three shares that should benefit significantly from this.

MorphoSys, Biogen, Sierra Growth - What is next?
Pharmaceutical stocks are a bit like that: Giants like Johnson & Johnson or Novartis have an extensive product portfolio and can cushion failures of individual products quite well. It is often a matter of life and death for smaller, specialized companies with every development. Just yesterday, this could be observed in the CureVac share after its Corona vaccine candidate only achieved an efficacy of 47% in the clinical 2b/3 phase. Within a very short time, it disintegrated the stock price. Meanwhile, biotech pioneer Biogen surprised with an unjustified share price rally, which, however, could come to an abrupt end after a new setback. The situation is different for MorphoSys. Its planned acquisition of Constellation Pharmaceuticals initially weighed heavily on the share price, but it holds exciting potential. And the Canadian mining Company Sierra Growth is operating in a completely different environment; however, it has a top opportunity to offer in the current inflationary environment and should not go unmentioned.

NewPeak Metals, Barrick Gold, Aurelius - A league of their own, performance without end!
Most experts agree gold will soon reach a new high. Who wants to invest not only physically in the precious metal can participate in "gold companies." As a rule, good quality companies perform better than the "underlying." The safest option is to invest in producers, but the potential return is much higher with exploration companies due to the higher risk. Which will you choose?

Blackrock Silver, JinkoSolar, K+S - Betting on the trend
Silver is not only in demand as a "crisis currency," but also from industry. The precious metal is characterized by several advantageous physical properties that make it extremely valuable for industrial use. For example, silver plays a major role in solar and battery production. As a result, the price of silver has already risen significantly in recent months. But what if the trend continues for longer?

Aixtron, Aspermont, LPKF - Starting signal for further price gains
The general conditions on the capital markets remain positive in the short-term perspective. An excess of liquidity, government aid and support programs, and progress in combating the pandemic means that critical factors such as the massive rise in inflation are fading into the background. When things are going well, they go well. So why not bet on stocks in the uptrend that have recently delivered excellent news and with which investors can undoubtedly outperform the market? We present three promising stocks. Who is winning the race?
