Oil more expensive after OPEC shock - Exxon Mobil, Saturn Oil + Gas, Deutsche Rohstoff AG
Supply is getting tighter, and prices are rising significantly. By cutting oil production quotas, the eight producer countries of OPEC+ ended the correction in the oil market that had been going on since July last year. This is bad news for motorists in Germany because the days of "cheap" petrol and diesel below EUR 2.00 will soon be a thing of the past. In addition to the producing countries, it is mainly producers from the western regions that are benefiting.

Winners of the supercycles - Rheinmetall, Defense Metals, BYD
Rare earths are indispensable for the production of high-tech products in the defence industry and electromobility due to their unique physical and chemical properties. China controls around 80% of the global output and thus has a key role in the global supply chain. Dependence on China poses a security risk, as the country could restrict access to rare earths or use them for political purposes. Therefore, diversifying supply chains and exploring alternative sources of rare earths is of great importance to ensure long-term security of supply.
