Nvidia, BrainChip Holdings, Palantir - To the moon
According to high-ranking managers of the largest chip manufacturers such as Intel and Nvidia, the end of the semiconductor crisis is not in sight before the end of 2022. Besides the increasing demand for consumer electronics, computers and accessories since the beginning of the Corona Crisis, the industry is also being hit by the strong growth in demand from the automotive industry, which is increasingly relying on electronics. Artificial intelligence, 5G and the Internet of Things will further fuel demand in the coming years.

Xiaomi, Troilus Gold, Merck - First-class developments
Substantial gains were recently seen in consumer and producer prices in Germany and Europe. Inflation in Germany reached its highest level in almost 28 years in August and is close to breaking through the 4% mark. In contrast to central banks, which consider the rate of inflation to be temporary and continue to maintain an ultra-loose monetary policy with interest rates at zero percent, economists expect inflation to remain permanently high. There is a threat of a decline in the value of money, which could be slowed down by buying gold. Currently, the precious metal is still trading at a favorable level.

GameStop, wallstreet:online, Nikola - It goes on blithely
The ECB is following the lead of the FED. Although some council members warned not to ignore the risk of too high inflation, an end to the ultra-loose monetary policy is not in sight. Only the purchase of government and corporate securities under the Corona emergency purchase program should be "moderately" lower in the fourth quarter. The pro-growth decision is a balm for the stock markets. New highs should follow after the last mini-corrections.

NIO, Kodiak Copper, Siemens Energy - Will green policies end in disaster?
Climate change is supposed to move forward quickly. The parties, above all, the Greens around chancellor candidate Annalena Baerbock, are wooing voters with ever shorter targets for CO2 neutrality. However, the construction of wind turbines, electric cars and solar plants requires an enormous amount of metals. There are already signs of a shortage in 2021, which will be even more drastic in the next few years and will seriously undermine the politicians' plans.

Above all, electric car manufacturers shone with significantly rising sales figures. In June alone, the number of new registrations in Germany climbed 311% year-on-year. The switch from combustion engines to electric cars is only just beginning. The percentage of battery-powered vehicles on German roads is just 12%.

SMA Solar, Royal Helium, RWE - Supply is becoming increasingly scarce
Whether for cars or consumer electronics, hardly any machine can do without microchips anymore. Since the beginning of the year, the shortage of semiconductors has been throwing the automotive industry out of step and causing production downtime and short-time work. Meanwhile, there is no end in sight to the supply crisis. Shortages stretch as far as the eye can see, while demand increases due to technological advances. Demand is also rising enormously for raw materials needed to decarbonize the economy.

BASF, Desert Gold, Moderna, BioNTech - Keep going, keep going!
The Delta variant is teaching the markets to be afraid. After the economy was humming in the past two quarters, disillusionment is now slowly setting in. The unexpectedly weak labor market data in the US in August demonstrated this. Outside of agriculture, only 235,000 new jobs were created compared with the forecast of 728,000 new jobs. Thus, the market's fear of an end to loose monetary policy and possible interest rate hikes should also be off the table.

Steinhoff, Saturn Oil + Gas, NIO - Spectacular transformation
A lot happened in the global capital markets last week. In addition to the OPEC+ meeting, where it was decided to turn on the oil taps further, disappointing labor market data again determined the direction of stock prices. Several second-line stocks, likely to face serious revaluations due to strong quarterly figures or new corporate developments, caused a furor. Position yourself now!

MorphoSys, Defence Therapeutics, CureVac, BioNTech - Dramatic need
While in Germany, 50.4 million citizens, or 60.7% of the population, are already fully vaccinated, and there is already discussion about booster vaccinations, the global average is just one in four. Thus, there is still an enormous demand for vaccines from various manufacturers. In addition to the French pharmaceutical Company Sanofi, a German vaccine producer could also celebrate a stock market comeback due to its second-generation vaccine.

Strong performance by Nel ASA, Defense Metals and JinkoSolar
The German parliamentary elections are on September 26. Climate protection is at the center of most political parties' election programs. The Greens are going out on a limb, aiming to achieve CO2 neutrality as early as 2035. However, it seems more than questionable whether these ambitious promises can actually be put into practice. The scarcity of raw materials such as copper, lithium and rare earth metals means a wide gap between aspiration and reality.
