Globex Mining, Samsung Electronics, BYD: Commodity rally and innovations from Asia
Increasing demand for generative AI, consumer electronics, and innovations in the automotive industry are significantly boosting demand for raw materials. These are golden times for explorers like Globex Mining. The Canadian company has such a broad-based commodities portfolio that it can be seen as a minerals land bank. For investors, this means reduced risk thanks to high diversification. Samsung Electronics is currently facing several challenges. Not only have they been overtaken by NVIDIA in chip production, but the workforce is also becoming restless. In South Korea, this would be the very first strike in the Company's history. Although the brand value is highly regarded globally, things seem to be quite off-kilter in Suwon. Innovations are produced in Asia. Car manufacturers such as BYD, Geely and Toyota are focusing on the next evolutionary stage in the development of electromobility. The EU, on the other hand, appears helpless and is trying to undermine competition with punitive tariffs. Will they succeed?

NVIDIA, Vidac Pharma, Bayer - Opportunities for innovation and growth
The next industrial revolution has begun – companies and countries are working with firms like NVIDIA to transform traditional data centres worth billions of euros into accelerated computing hubs and build a new type of data centre: AI factories to produce artificial intelligence.

Desert Gold, Fresenius, SMA Solar: Emerging industry leaders in gold, medicine and renewable energies - investment opportunities in focus
This year's growth sectors are medicine, renewable energies and, due to the numerous geopolitical tensions, gold. The price of the precious metal has already climbed by 18% since January.
