Pathfinder Ventures, TUI, Lufthansa - Which tourism shares are worthwhile?
The tourism industry has suffered losses in recent years due to the pandemic. Be it staff shortages like at Lufthansa and at the airports, with the resulting chaos of cancelled flights and passengers waiting for hours at check-in. This volatility is reflected in the shares. On the other hand, the growth of Pathfinder Ventures, a Canadian company specializing in campgrounds for RVs in the most beautiful places under the maple flag, is developing pleasantly positively. Pathfinder Ventures is upgrading its facilities and expanding by buying up more sites that are already well-attended. We look at the details.

Meta Materials, JinkoSolar, BioNTech - Smart technologies as growth boosters
Solar and photovoltaic companies have been hot in the financial markets since the shifts in the energy market. Chinese supplier JinkoSolar, for example, is now launching solar batteries for home use. Smart buildings are an important component in urban city planning. Where there is plenty of sunshine, its energy is converted for personal use, and Australian residents are benefiting from JinkoSolar's technology. In order to increase the efficiency of such energy sources, Meta Materials offers innovative solutions that make solar systems even more cost-effective. Thanks to numerous patents, they also have a business model, which will please long-term investors in terms of growth opportunities. Rather unpleasant, however, are the measures planned by the German government for the coming fall and winter. Masks or vaccination is the calculation, which will at least bring some joy to BioNTech shareholders.

Manuka, BYD, AMD - These companies stand for sustainable, strategically planned growth
With a share of 4.7%, iron is the tenth most common element in our universe and one of the most common on our planet. In industry, the raw material is in hot demand. The Australian Company Manuka has recognized this and acquired a strategically valuable project, which can profitably supply the explorer for the next 20 years. One customer for iron is the automotive industry. BYD will start selling its cars in Germany and Sweden this year. In contrast to the competition from VW and Volvo, the Chinese carmaker has installed enough semiconductors in its mobiles. AMD is also benefiting from this. The chipmaker saw sales growth in its embedded division, which includes semiconductors for cars. AMD's earnings call for the quarter showed a clear trend of where the growth is happening...

Erin Ventures, Uniper, BASF - How business continues to grow outside Germany
Old hands in the market like BASF are in a strong transformation process. Russia's war of aggression in Ukraine has put the energy supply from gas on the line. But global players like the Ludwigshafen-based company already have a plan B, to the delight of shareholders. The situation is very different at Uniper AG. Here, the great dependence on Russian gas supplies and the expensive world market contracts that the Company had to conclude brought Germany's largest gas supplier to the brink of bankruptcy in recent weeks. The German government is spending EUR 15 billion to keep the Company afloat. At the taxpayer's expense. Erin Ventures shows where it is really worth investing now with the Element Boron.

Amazon, Alphabet, Viva Gold Corporation - Is data really the new gold?
Internet giants like Amazon and Alphabet are betting on digital care. One Medical is the latest acquisition of the e-commerce group. The digital health company is changing hands for USD 3.9 billion, and with it, all the user data that has been created up to that point. Specifically, this is healthcare data. Is data the new gold? With volatile markets and runaway inflation, some calm in the portfolio from real gold can be beneficial. Exploration companies like Viva Gold Corporation are betting on working in the field with digital support. Recent drilling at the Tonopah project in western Nevada has been promising. Alphabet investors, on the other hand, had to take the latest quarterly figures with a slight disappointment. While things are moving forward in the cloud business, the group's growth has been one of the slowest.

Renewable energies in action: ThyssenKrupp, Altech Advanced Materials, Plug Power - Who is winning the race?
Steel is responsible for 8 to 11% of global CO₂ emissions. It is essential for the automotive and construction industries and the manufacture of industrial machinery. It also forms the basis for a number of decarbonization technologies, including wind turbines, generators and smart grids. Without companies like ThyssenKrupp, it would not be possible to build electric cars, which will run faster than Elon Musk can tweet, thanks to innovative battery technology from Altech Advanced Materials AG. GreenTech companies like Plug Power also need steel for their green hydrogen plants. And ThyssenKrupp needs green hydrogen for CO₂-free production. Who is winning the race in the green energy play?

The US dollar and the euro have reached parity. Which industries and countries still offer growth opportunities? A look at the industrial boom country China shows that investments there are still associated with increased risk. Are BYD and Alibaba still worthwhile? A well-known US American has managed to send the value of the electric car company plummeting on the back of a mere rumor. And Elon Musk is not the only one hanging around in space - security is a top priority there, too, as Kleos Space proves. A new CFO is on board.

BASF, Amazon, Barsele Minerals - Crisis-proof investments
Some treasures in Europe and neighboring countries offer real pearls of return for investors. A look at the Scandinavian north is worth its weight in gold and can bring calm to the portfolio. BASF has also earned some calm - the chemical giant warns of a bumpy second half and is actively reshaping its energy supply. While tech stocks continue to lose ground, Amazon can rejoice: with Prime Day coming soon, 200 million subscribers in 21 countries will be encouraged to buy bargains.
