Meta Materials, Xiaomi, SoftBank - Undiscovered potential!

AI, 5G, robotics and new materials will have changed our reality in just a few years. As new solutions, products and markets emerge, these stocks will benefit.

Standard Lithium, Aztec Minerals, Orocobre - Take advantage of trading opportunities!
Raw materials are a prerequisite for any kind of production. The more there is produced, the more raw materials are needed. Precious metals are also suitable as an investment. Historically, they are always in demand when inflation rises. Commodity prices are thus subject to many factors. Some of which can neutralize each other, and some of which can reinforce each other. For example, the persistently high inflation of over 5% in the USA speaks for an increasing flight of investors into precious metals and, thus, rising commodity prices. While at the same time, the semiconductor crisis, which is currently occurring, is causing production cutbacks and idle assembly lines. That means that fewer raw materials are needed, which in turn puts pressure on prices. What is the best strategy now and which share has the greatest potential?

Desert Gold, Barrick Gold, Nordex - These are the winners!
Even if inflation in the US has fallen slightly compared to the previous month, it is still at a high level of over 5%. This cannot be explained away. Despite all efforts of central bankers worldwide to regard the high inflation as only a temporary phenomenon, it is more advisable to adjust to the more realistic scenario of a persistently high inflation rate. To protect oneself as an investor against the loss of purchasing power, it helps to invest in tangible assets such as shares, real estate and commodities. With the following three companies, investors have good cards to be on the winning side.
