Siemens Healthineers, Vidac Pharma, Viking Therapeutics - Powerful movements
After the hype during the COVID-19 pandemic, biotech stocks have lagged behind the broader market, allowing major technology companies to take the lead. Smaller, capital-intensive companies, in particular, have suffered from the high interest rate level. However, this is likely to change soon. On the one hand, monetary policy is expected to be eased, and on the other hand, demographic changes point to a long-term explosion in demand for new medications.

BYD, Altech Advanced Materials, Xiaomi - Battle for the gold of the energy transition
The energy transition is underway, and demand for electric vehicles is increasing, albeit more slowly than expected. Lithium has so far been fundamental to the electrification of transportation. To minimize dependence on China, which controls a large part of the mining and processing of the rare metal, the European Union is turning to Serbia, where considerable deposits for battery production lie dormant. However, in addition to lithium-ion batteries, there are alternatives "Made in Germany" that could set the future standard.

Deutsche Rohstoff AG, Saturn Oil + Gas, Siemens Energy - Weak demand offers opportunities
Persistent concerns about slow demand in China led to a sell-off and pushed oil prices below USD 80 per barrel. According to customs data released over the weekend, diesel and gasoline exports from the major oil importer fell sharply in July, driven by lower crude processing due to weak margins. However, this is offset by supply risks related to tensions in the Middle East and the escalation of the war between Russia and Ukraine, which could bring the current correction to a rapid end.

Alamos Gold, Prismo Metals, Hudbay Minerals - Gold breaks out, copper turns, act now!
After a brief pause, gold returned with a brilliant breakout and crossed the USD 2,500 per ounce mark for the first time. This new all-time high has generated a striking buy signal. The conditions, with further escalation in geopolitics, provide the best opportunities for continued price increases. Copper also sent out positive signals. Despite economic concerns, the industrial metal may have found a bottom after the correction of recent weeks.

Hensoldt AG, Almonty Industries, Vonovia - New opportunities after the crash
The past trading week was indeed quite a challenge. Uncertainty and high volatility dominated the global financial markets. Although share prices gradually recovered after Black Monday, it is still too early to sound the all-clear due to increasing geopolitical tensions and the unwinding of the global yen carry trade. Nevertheless, interesting entry opportunities have opened up for investors following the exaggerated price losses at many companies.

BYD, Globex Mining, Coinbase - New opportunities after the price storm
Weak labour market data from the US, which once again increased fears of a recession, the Intel shock, and the further escalation of the situation in the Middle East, put additional pressure on stock markets around the globe. The Dow Jones fell by just under 3% over the week, while Germany's leading index, the DAX, lost over 4.5% in the same period. The market's overall weakness meant that positive company reports took a back seat. This creates opportunities at a discounted level.

Viking Therapeutics, Vidac Pharma, Merck KGaA - In the footsteps of Novo Nordisk
Drugs for the treatment of diabetes and obesity have helped the pharmaceuticals manufacturer Novo Nordisk to become the most valuable listed company in Europe. But the competition is not sleeping.

Riot Platforms, Desert Gold Ventures, British American Tobacco with a bang
Summer is in its hot phase, and there is no sign that the global stock markets are cooling down. On the contrary, with the US election campaign entering a new round following Joe Biden's withdrawal, the presidential candidates are trying to mobilize voters.

Bloom Energy, First Hydrogen, Nel ASA - Best conditions for a rebound
Germany is not the only country working to develop a sustainable hydrogen market. Economics Minister Robert Habeck recently announced funding for projects totalling EUR 4.6 billion to make the economy climate-neutral. Green hydrogen is set to be a key energy source in the future. The German government projects a hydrogen demand of 95 to 130 TWh annually by 2030 to support industrial decarbonization. This development is not currently reflected in listed companies, which may open up new investment opportunities in the long term.
