Fresenius Peer: Will the analysts' favorite M1 Kliniken 2020 take off?
Besides Fresenius, M1 Klinken AG is one of the few listed clinic operators in Germany. Unlike the clinic group, M1 has specialised in a lucrative niche: the beauty market. More and more people are helping with beauty and are generating billions in sales in the industry. In just a few years, M1 has become the market leader for beauty medicine in Germany. A growth rate of 30% is also targeted for the future. Foreign business is increasingly becoming the growth driver. After a continuous price increase between 2016 and 2018, the share has consolidated in 2019. But operationally things are still running smoothly. Analysts see more than 50% upside potential.

Deutsche Telekom & Co with 5G challenge - Will Philion benefit in 2020?
5G is not only a major challenge for Deutsche Telekom. All German network operators have to cope with the high investments required for the next generation mobile communications standard. They are still busy working on the 4G LTE standard. One example is the recent announcement that Telefonica Deutschland is not meeting its obligations for 4G network rollout. Only those who can ensure high network utilization will earn money. To achieve this, no network operator can avoid independent mobile service providers like Philion SE. The still young listed company has repositioned itself with the takeover of Handyflash.de at the end of 2019. Profitable growth is expected to begin in 2020. There are good reasons why the small-cap stock could take off in 2020.

E.ON, iWater Group, K+S - Water as a safety factor
Clean water is a high social good. In water management, different standards apply to safety depending on the use. For example, the requirements for drinking water supply and wastewater disposal are particularly high, as these areas are part of the critical infrastructure in Germany. In this context, utilities and plant operators are subject to particularly high IT security standards. An impairment caused by a cyber attack could possibly lead to supply bottlenecks and disruptions to public safety.

Memphasys, Merck, Novartis - Solutions for the desire to have children
Many couples around the world long for their own children, but for many people, family planning by natural means is not possible. Modern medicine can help in the development of a pregnancy by means of artificial insemination, the so-called in vitro fertilisation, also known as IVF procedure. In this context, egg cells are taken from the woman and artificially fertilised with the man's sperm in the laboratory. If successful, embryos can then be transferred to the uterus. The need for artificial insemination in couples varies between 16 and 25% depending on the region - a large and global market.

Ballard Power, dynaCERT, NEL ASA - higher, faster, hydrogen!
The mobility of the future will be a mix of different energy sources. New technologies will make conventional combustion engines even cleaner and more efficient and, where it makes sense for the user, technologies with electronic drive motors will also be used. However, the German government is also attempting to influence the market by subsidising battery cars, a technology that is already being phased out in China. This political actionism from the Chancellor's Office is bypassing the market, and car manufacturers in Germany are noticing this too. A total of 57,533 purely electric cars were registered in 2019 until November - of a total of 3.6 million newly registered passenger cars.

NEL ASA, Saturn Oil & Gas, VARTA - which stock will be the top performer in 2020?
If it runs, it runs! This or something similar is how the demand for the stocks of trend themes can be described. Last year, shares of hydrogen companies were in great demand. Also the interest in energy storage was very high. But what did not work at all was the extraction of energy raw materials in the traditional way. A backlog demand has emerged, which will pay off in 2020 according to experts for investors who are there in time.
