Desert Gold Ventures, Amazon, Volkswagen - Commodities in hot demand, while big tech and Automotive in a nosedive
The new stock market year is starting with a strong pole position for commodities and companies like Desert Gold Ventures, which is looking for gold in Mali. Mali is the third-largest gold-producing country in the world. Desert Gold Ventures' 'SMSZ Project' already surrounds 6 active gold mines, and drilling for 2023 is secured. Things remain shaky for big tech companies like Amazon and automotive like Volkswagen. Can the past Christmas sales bring Amazon's once largest pillar back into the black? Will the Wolfsburg-based company recapture its market power through restructuring in procurement?

Aspermont, Amazon and flatexDEGIRO combine rapid customer growth in digital times.

BioNxt Solutions, MorphoSys, BioNTech - Innovations and scaling potential for the portfolio
Around the world, patients are used to swallowing medicines in pill form. Sales of oral, fixed-dose drugs alone accounted for a whopping 23.8% of the global pharmaceutical drug delivery market in 2021. That is reason enough for Canadian biotech company BioNxt Solutions to further expand its strategic pole position. BioNxt Solutions secures further rights to a unique platform technology in this segment. Caution is currently the order of the day for MorphoSys. Analysts downgrade the target price from EUR 16 to EUR 12 after a disappointing Q3. BioNTech, on the other hand, can expand its dominance. The Mainz-based company is scaling up in the Asia-Pacific region with new production sites.
