Sibanye-Stillwater, Desert Gold Ventures, Barrick Gold - Take advantage of the consolidation to enter quickly!
When the broad stock market is bullish and the prices of cryptocurrencies go through the roof, it is expected that crisis-proof investments stagnate or fall. Such has been the case with gold recently. But even if the bull market feeds the bull market, a stock market correction is inevitable. Corona and central bank policies' economic scars are too massive to be ignored in the long run. Profiteers from this new reality will undoubtedly be precious metals prices. Those who have fair quality shares of gold producers or gold explorers in their portfolio will outperform the gold price. We present three promising players, where an engagement in the current gold price consolidation will pay off.

Riot Blockchain, Upco International, Microsoft - Game changer Blockchain - more than just Bitcoin!
Blockchain is more than just Bitcoin. This cryptographic chaining process in a decentralized "accounting system" forms the technological basis for the cryptocurrency and allows for other diverse applications. Profound upheavals are on the horizon in many areas of the economy, with currencies, payment services and assets just a few examples. A vast field of application is blockchain-based contracts, so-called smart contracts stored in a programming language. In general, blockchain offers the advantages of tamper-resistance and lower transaction costs, among others. But the technology also comes up against limitations with some adverse side effects such as low efficiency and high energy consumption. Blockchain is not a cure-all, but the market for a wide variety of areas is enormous and enables providers to grow dynamically, sometimes exponentially, in the long term. We introduce you to three profiteers of the blockchain growth trend.

Delivery Hero, GS Holdings, Adler Modemärkte - Corona factor: take profits or buy courageously?
The list of companies benefiting from the Corona pandemic is long. The longer list is that of the companies that have suffered massively, right up to companies deprived of their livelihood. The decisive factor is whether companies can adapt flexibly to general conditions and whether they are financially strong enough to ride out the wave. Regardless of whether they are high flyers or bankrupt vultures, stock market prices do not always reflect a company's appropriate value. If the discrepancy between value and price is too large, it is worthwhile to enter into corresponding trading positions or investments. We present you with three attractive opportunities.

CureVac, Q&M Dental, Moderna - What you didn't know - really exciting!
The World Health Organization (WHO) recorded more than 235 Covid-19 vaccine projects worldwide since January 2020, but few projects make it across the finish line. Timing is a critical factor, and early entrants will divide the huge market among themselves. These include BioNTech/Pfizer, Moderna and AstraZeneca. Still in the "test phase" is Tübingen-based CureVac, which recently entered into a sales cooperation with Bayer. Information published yesterday is positive and suggests approval of the preparation by the beginning of the second quarter of 2021 at the latest. Away from vaccine manufacturers, other Corona profiteers exist with which investors can earn handsomely. Q&M Dental from Singapore is little known. Its subsidiary is one of nine government-approved Corona testing facilities. Also, Q&M supplies Asian neighboring countries with millions of its Corona testing. We inform you about the news and potentials of known and unknown players.

Bitcoin Group, BIGG Digital Assets, Square Inc.- incredible potential!
The market penetration of cryptocurrencies and the tokenization of crypto assets are still at an early stage. The benefits of blockchain-based transactions are clear. Bitcoin marked an all-time high last week at USD 41,000, quintupling in 12 months. Professional investors are becoming increasingly interested in the crypto asset class. Ultimately, the triumph of crypto depends on regulators and general acceptance. However, the multi-faceted Group of payment service providers or specialized (software) solution providers are also interesting for investors. After all, these are cutting themselves an ever-larger slice of PayPal's colossal pie. We introduce you to promising companies, some of which are still relatively unknown, that have huge upside potential.

Lang & Schwarz, wallstreet:online, Commerzbank - Explosive Growth: License to Print Money
Many securities trading banks and brokers completed the best year in their corporate history in 2020. Profits and share prices multiplied. There is no end in sight to the trend.

Newmont, Triumph Gold, Yamana Gold - a new all-time high for gold as a turbo return!
If one believes Commerzbank analysts, the gold price will rise to USD 2,100 by the end of the year and mark a new all-time high. In particular, the too loose monetary policy of central banks and the growing indebtedness of industrialized countries can be cited as reasons. With gold producers and gold exploration companies' shares, investors profit strongly from the precious metal price's development. We present promising investments.

BP, Saturn Oil & Gas, OMV - Sector rotation for investment success in 2021!
Technology stocks were among the darlings of investors in 2020. However, in the meantime, company valuations in this sector have soared to dizzying heights reminiscent of the Neuer Markt boom. Thus, it could be very worthwhile to take a look at the losers of the past year. Oil stocks posted red signs in the face of a 22% drop in the commodity price. But now the situation should change. Leading economic research institutes are forecasting global economic growth of over 4% in the new year. The oil price should also continue to rise, Goldman Sachs even sees upside potential of 30%. We show you which stocks will help you profit.
