Porsche share, Globex Mining, Bayer AG - Who offers the most profitable return?
Despite good figures, economic turbulence in the major customer China continues to make Porsche cautious about its forecasts for the coming year.

Classic sectors such as energy and insurance are currently attracting the attention of investors.
