Critical metals existential - Plug Power, Almonty Industries, Nordex
The electric car market is poised for further exponential growth in the current decade. Supplier Bosch predicts that by 2030, two-thirds of all newly registered cars in Europe will be electric. As demand for e-vehicles grows, so does the need for the materials to make batteries. In addition to lithium, the critical metal tungsten is playing an increasingly important role due to its high density and high melting point. Up to now, production has taken place almost exclusively in China. However, a Canadian company that could become a supplier to the western world in the future is causing quite a stir.

American Lithium, Blackrock Silver and Standard Lithium - Lithium is increasingly scarce
Lithium-ion batteries are the most common battery technology for electronic devices, electric vehicles and energy storage due to their high energy density and long life. In addition, the critical metal is used in the aerospace industry, medical technology and metal processing.

RWE, Myriad Uranium, Cameco - The best environment ever
The geopolitical events of 2022 have heightened concerns about the security of supply and, combined with the ongoing focus on climate change, have created transformative tailwinds for the nuclear power industry.

Barrick Gold, Globex Mining, First Majestic Silver - The resurgence of precious metals
In uncertain times, gold is considered a safe haven and enjoys great popularity among investors.

Evotec, Defence Therapeutics, Morphosys - Movement in the biotech sector
Is a new wave of takeovers starting in the biotech sector? Already last year, acquisitions by Big Pharma were expected to increase, but these largely failed to materialize. However, this could accelerate in the current year.
