Nel, ITM Power, dynaCERT: Hydrogen shares unstoppable
Since the beginning of October, hydrogen stocks have been celebrating a terrific comeback. The sector has clearly left behind the strong correction since February 2021. Even the climate conference without concrete results cannot stop the rally. Even the steel and industrial group Thyssenkrupp is reportedly toying with the idea of listing its hydrogen electrolyzer business on the stock market. Because one thing is clear: More and more countries are relying on hydrogen for a successful energy turnaround. In Europe alone, electrolysis capacities for "green hydrogen" are to be multiplied to 40 gigawatts by 2030. The US investment bank Jefferies is correspondingly optimistic about the potential of hydrogen companies. The market will continue to grow significantly. The analysts' favorite is ITM Power, but Nel is also recommended. The same could soon apply to dynaCERT.

Climate conference ends: Nel, Plug Power and Defense Metals continue with momentum
After two weeks, the climate conference in Glasgow has come to an end. The results are manageable. Although coal and other fossil fuels were declared to be phased out for the first time, the wording was watered down several times. For example, it was only possible to agree on a call that the use of coal-fired power plants without CO2 capture should be "gradually reduced". But even without concrete resolutions, one thing is sure: the energy turnaround is in full swing, and investor darlings Nel and Plug Power are again stepping on the gas. Defense Metals could be due for a reassessment after the completion of drilling.

Bayer, TUI, Sativa Wellness: Figures move share prices
The reporting season is drawing to a close. Overall, most companies have been convincing, and the stock markets have been very friendly in recent weeks. Bayer published positive quarterly figures, raised its forecast for the full year and thus convinced the analysts from DZ Bank. Sativa Wellness benefits from the boom around cannabis and CBD. The still-new boom is growing strongly and is already in the black. At TUI, the operating figures play less of a role. The development of the Corona figures and, thus, possible travel restrictions in the coming winter are more critical. Read more about all three shares here.

Nordex, Gazprom, Saturn Oil + Gas: Rising oil and gas price drive
Leading politicians and industry leaders are meeting in Glasgow until November 12 for the climate conference. So far, however, there has been nothing more than "hot air" to report. Not only climate activists are disappointed. Even German Development Minister Gerd Müller criticized the interim results. "The emerging resolutions are not enough to achieve the 1.5-degree target," the CSU politician told Redaktionsnetzwerk Deutschland. There is also little news on the expansion of renewable energies. It is therefore not surprising that the oil price is picking up again. With a rise to USD 83.78, the price for the Brent variety has ended the correction. There is also no relief in sight for the price of gas. The shares of Gazprom and Saturn Oil & Gas are benefiting from this. But Nordex is also attracting attention with new orders.

TeamViewer, HelloFresh, Aspermont: Year-end rally
The year-end rally in 2021 seems to have started in October. For technology stocks, in particular, it was a golden October. The leading index for tech stocks, the Nasdaq, clearly left its weak September phase behind and ended October at around 15,500 points. Technology stocks also started November strongly, raising hopes of a strong year-end rally. Tech stocks outside the US should also participate in this. HelloFresh surprised investors positively with an increase in its forecast, and the worst could be over for the problem child TeamViewer after the publication of its quarterly figures. The Aspermont share has not yet taken off. Analysts see clear potential for the Australian insider tip.

Varta, Valneva, Almonty Industries: It is getting close!
Volkswagen, SMA Solar, Asos are just a few examples; hardly a day goes by without companies from a wide variety of industries complaining about shortages.

Among them is tungsten producer Almonty Industries with its project of the century in South Korea. Germany's Varta is looking to profit from the battery shortage, and excitement is building ahead of the numbers. And Valneva, after its successful capital increase, is hoping that corona vaccines will continue to be in demand.

Nordex, Standard Lithium, Central African Gold: Raw materials for the energy transition
The energy turnaround is supposed to save the climate and significantly reduce the consumption of fossil fuels. But what is often overlooked: In practice, this means that demand for other raw materials is rising massively. In the EU alone, demand for cobalt is expected to increase more than tenfold by 2030. Copper and lithium are also in hot demand. Nordex, for example, needs rare earths for the production of wind turbines. Standard Lithium benefits from the exploding demand for batteries and Central African Gold's raw materials are included in practically every future technology.

Nel, BYD, BrainChip: This looks good
While shares from the technology sector have been very volatile in recent weeks, the knot has burst at BYD, and the share has risen to a new record high.

All three shares have further room for improvement. You can read why here.

Barrick Gold, Standard Lithium, GSP Resource: Commodities booming
Copper, lithium and oil are just a few examples of commodities whose prices are going through the roof. The shares of the producers of these commodities are benefiting as a result. In addition, there is now often a takeover fantasy. This applies, for example, to Standard Lithium. The US explorer has now also published positive data for its project. It also applies to GSP Resource. At least as far as drilling results and takeover fantasy are concerned. The share price, on the other hand, still has room for improvement. The same applies to Barrick Gold. The Q3 figures were convincing, with the gold company earning brilliantly on every ounce, but the shares are trading close to the year's low.
