Deutsche Bank, Mercedes-Benz, Memiontec: Investors take action
Tech is out. In uncertain times, investors turn to conservative stocks. This is the case at present. The environment is characterized by the Ukraine crisis, high inflation and rising interest rates. Numerous high-flyers from the technology sector have been brought back down to earth. At the same time, conservative shares from the financial sector, for example, are making a comeback. Deutsche Bank is one of them. The share has made significant gains in recent weeks. The same applies to the shares of Mercedes-Benz, where analysts see further room for improvement. In addition, the automotive sector is benefiting from a failed emergency motion by the Green Party. In recent weeks, water treatment specialist Memiontec has also held up well, and investors speculate on an upward breakout.

Steinhoff, TUI, Hong Lai Huat: Top News!
The Ukraine crisis, inflation and rising interest rates currently have the capital markets firmly in their grip. But even in these uncertain times, companies surprise positively, and there are exciting investment opportunities. For example, the shares of TUI and Steinhoff were up on Tuesday. News-driven gains. At Steinhoff, an important deadline for creditors expires in May. After two years of the pandemic, the desire to travel for Germans is greater than ever. The tourism group TUI benefits from this, and Lufthansa will continue to fly to Mallorca with the Boeing 747. The exciting real estate company Hong Lai Huat offers investors an interesting opportunity tomorrow, February 17.

Varta, Nel ASA, Almonty Industries: Get in now?
The electric car is currently outpacing the combustion engine: around 350,000 pure e-cars were registered in Germany alone in 2021. According to the Center of Automotive Management (CAM), this means that the market share has almost doubled to 13% in one year. Germany is now the third-largest single market for pure electric vehicles after China and the United States. However, according to CAM, China is ahead with around 2.7 million electric vehicles. Nevertheless, due to global subsidies, the trend toward electromobility will continue, creating opportunities for investors. The winners in electromobility include battery and raw material producers such as Varta and Almonty Industries. Demand for hydrogen - and therefore Nel - will also increase. All three stocks have lost significant ground. But there are positive developments. Is it worth getting in now?

Barrick Gold, Standard Lithium, Alerio Gold: Commodity stocks after the crash
Lithium and gold stocks have little in common at first glance. The lithium sector has undergone a severe correction in recent weeks. Albemarle, for example, has lost around 30% in value. In the case of the 2021 investor darling, Standard Lithium, it was almost 50%. What lasted only a few weeks in the case of lithium has dragged on for months in the case of gold shares. Again, industry heavyweights like Barrick Gold and young producers like Alerio Gold are trading well below their highs. And this brings us to the common thread. Both lithium and gold stocks appear ripe for a rebound. The lithium price is trading near all-time highs, and gold is trading back above USD 1,800. In addition, Barrick has released top numbers. Alerio Gold and Standard Lithium are also worth a closer look.

The beginning of the end at BioNTech? Positive start for JinkoSolar and Diamcor
Is Omicron the beginning of the end of the Corona pandemic? Not only stock market players are asking themselves this question. Because as it seems, the virus variant is more contagious but seemingly leads to less severe sickness. As a result, the shares of vaccine manufacturers such as BioNTech, Moderna and Valneva have recently suffered. However, there are positive things to report, especially for BioNTech. While the Mainz-based Company is optimizing its vaccine for the Omicron variant, there is also positive news from the USA. Not only the COVID-19 vaccine is in demand worldwide, but also diamonds. Most recently, Israel reported a significant increase in demand. Tiffany & Co. partner Diamcor is benefiting from this demand. JinkoSolar's share price is heading north again in the first few days of trading after the heavy losses before Christmas. The IPO of the subsidiary is taking shape.

Steinhoff, TeamViewer, CoinSmart: With hope and despair into the new year!
Hope and despair can exist close to each other. The same is true for the stock market. In the case of Steinhoff, there have been positive reports in recent months. It seems that the German-South African group can be saved after all. Accordingly, the share has multiplied. The security of CoinSmart is still far away from this. But there are good reasons why the price of the crypto platform could rise this year. There was certainly despair among one or the other shareholder of TeamViewer in 2021. The Company has forward-looking software but has squandered a lot of trust. Read more here.

Varta, Nel ASA, Almonty Industries: Buying opportunities for 2022?
Even though 2021 felt like it was all about COVID-19 and vaccine manufacturers such as BioNTech, Valneva and Novavax, the energy and mobility revolution was one of the dominant themes. Evidence of this is the boom in e-cars in Germany. The Association of International Motor Vehicle Manufacturers (VDIK) estimates that one in four new cars in this country will be electric in 2021. There is a good chance that hydrogen, lithium & Co. will continue to electrify investors in the coming year. Here we present three companies benefiting from the megatrends but whose share prices have come back significantly from their highs: Hydrogen specialist Nel ASA, battery pioneer Varta and future tungsten giant Almonty.

Barrick Gold, Rock Tech Lithium, Alerio Gold: 2022 - Precious metals instead of lithium?
Lithium was one of the high flyers among commodities in 2021. Will 2022 see a comeback in precious metals and mining stocks in particular? Many investors ask themselves this at the end of a horror year for gold and silver. The industry has not benefited from the significant rise in inflation this year. While the gold price has "only" lost around 6% in 2021, the impacts on mining stocks have been more severe. The GDX has lost about 20%, and the GDXJ almost 30%. At the same time, with a current gold price of around USD 1,800, good money can be earned, and the exploration of new projects also makes sense. Shares like cash machine Barrick and newcomer Alerio are worth a look. But lithium will also remain in demand. Tesla neighbor Rock Tech could benefit from this.

+900% with Nvidia still not enough? Are Valneva and BrainChip on the verge of a breakthrough?
2021 was not a good year overall for technology and growth stocks. In particular, companies with a business model not yet profitable had a hard time. They included Peloton and Zoom. One of the top performers in the Nasdaq-100 was the Nvidia share. The chip giant benefits from several trends at once, such as artificial intelligence and the metaverse. If UBS has its way, then 900% price gains in the past three years are not enough. For the analysts of the Swiss bank, the chip stock is the "Top Pick 2022". BrainChip is still a long way from the chip Olympus, but the Company could make a breakthrough in the coming year. The same applies to Valneva, as many are waiting for the dead vaccine, and the stock is still valued relatively low.

HelloFresh, TeamViewer, CoinAnalyst: Shares for 2022?
Tech stocks again lost significantly on Monday. The TecDAX was down 0.5% at 3,788 points in the late afternoon. As a result, this means that investors are still waiting in vain for the year-end rally. Uncertainty currently dominates the stock markets: on the further course of the Corona pandemic and the expected economic stimulus package in the United States. We look at three stocks that could have an excellent start to 2022. From the planned renewed restrictions on public life to the lockdown in Germany and numerous other countries, HelloFresh and TeamViewer should benefit. CoinAnalyst aims to make cryptocurrency trading easier with a new app in the first quarter of 2022.
