First Hydrogen, BYD, Amazon - How hydrogen, e-mobility, and quality control are transforming the economy
The global economy is changing, opening new doors for investors. Three companies are in the spotlight. First Hydrogen is attracting attention with hydrogen and small reactors as an energy source. The founding of the new subsidiary First Nuclear makes it clear: The energy future is being built here. Electric automaker BYD is pushing forward with all its might, aiming to produce 5.5 million vehicles in 2025 - the ambitious goal: To double sales outside of China. With production sites in the EU and other countries, the Company is cleverly avoiding possible tariffs and conquering new markets. Amazon remains a pioneer in its field and relies on green energy and quality: Wind and solar projects are being developed in Spain and Portugal. In addition, it is taking a tough line against brand counterfeiting – the fight against plagiarism in the marketplace has begun. Hydrogen, electric mobility, and quantum technology – these future drivers could fundamentally change existing industries. How exactly are these companies influencing tomorrow's world?

BYD, Volkswagen, First Phosphate: Who will shape the future of batteries?
China's electric giant BYD is outpacing Volkswagen. With 322,846 vehicles sold in February 2025, the Chinese automaker is putting the competition under pressure. In addition, Volkswagen continues to lose ground in China, facing a meager profit margin of just 5.9%. The race for e-mobility supremacy is bringing more players into the game: First Phosphate, a Canadian explorer, reports progress in the extraction of high-purity phosphate for lithium iron phosphate batteries. BYD is successfully using these raw materials in its innovative Blade Battery. Volkswagen also aims to score points with electric vehicles and strike back with the ID. EVERY1 model for around EUR 20,000 from 2027. However, access to raw materials remains the ultimate challenge. First Phosphate could become the bottleneck: With the coveted raw material phosphate, the Company could generate USD 700 million in cash flow in three years according to the PEA and thus become a key partner in the battery supply chain. Will this make a Canadian raw materials supplier the secret winner? Investors should follow developments closely.

Steyr Motors, dynaCERT, and NEL – Growth drivers in defense and greentech
Investors love companies that impress with fresh ideas and strong growth. In the greentech and defense sectors, three players are in focus: Steyr Motors AG is convincing in its 2024 annual report with a 9.2% increase in revenue.

Big Pharma's billion-dollar markets under pressure – NetraMark as the key for Bayer and Novo Nordisk?
In 2025, the pharmaceutical market faces significant challenges, including rising costs and regulatory hurdles. In this environment, companies like NetraMark, Bayer, and Novo Nordisk could make a significant difference through innovative solutions and strategic partnerships. NetraMark, a Canadian HealthTech company, is revolutionizing clinical trials with AI technology, which could be particularly beneficial in the areas of research into active ingredients for the central nervous system and in oncology. These are currently the biggest dropouts in industry. NetraMark's technology could increase the efficiency of drug development and open up new opportunities for investors. Bayer is focusing on targeted therapies in precision oncology and has a promising drug in development that specifically targets an overarching mutation in various cancers. Novo Nordisk is cementing its reputation as an innovator in the fight against chronic obesity, particularly with its successor to the obesity drug CagriSema. The Phase III REDEFINE 2 study achieved its primary objective, although the results fell short of high expectations. A closer look is now warranted.
