SAP, wallstreet:online, Baidu - This is where the action is!
Anyone who wants to secure a piece of the market share in today's online business must develop good digital concepts and exceptional customer service. However, many of these models have simply been transformed from the old economy to the digital world and have significant breaking points in the day-to-day operational processing. Currently, the online world is at a standstill because the transfer of goods has to be confirmed manually at a warehouse exit. Many companies are working on a perfect digital flow. We take a look at some of them today.

Varta, Graphano Energy, Nel ASA - Who will deliver the super battery?
The race for the most powerful battery stops at many stations. On the one hand, it is about battery efficiency as a basic fact of the climate discussion. On the other hand, many producers wonder where all the battery metals should come from if every second EU citizen switches to e-mobility in the next few years. Neither the charging infrastructure nor resilient batteries are available at the moment, so the whole planning is actually still fraught with a lot of dreaming - nevertheless, the necessary metals are going through the roof in terms of price. The reason is that those sitting on the metals are turning the price screw, even if the actual excess demand will probably only arise in 2-3 years. We are looking at values that are in the middle of the typhoon.

TUI, Diamcor Mining, Varta: Luxury that pays off
A luxurious trip? A sporty electric coupé or perhaps timelessly beautiful jewelry? There are many ways to indulge in luxury. Some are enduring, and some are rather clumsy consumption. But even when it comes to luxury, there is no arguing about matters of taste. However, it is easier to argue when it comes to investments in companies that benefit to a greater or lesser extent from the penchant for luxury. We discuss three shares.

Formycon, Memiontec, Synlab - Act before it is too late!
When an unpredictable event occurs, humanity sees how powerless it is in the face of it. We saw this in the spring of last year with the outbreak of the Corona pandemic. Only since the approval of various vaccines has a normalization taken place. However, further, foreseeable problems are coming our way. According to expert forecasts, water demand will exceed supply by 40% as early as 2030. Some companies sense an opportunity to profit from the water shortage through novel technologies.

Plug Power, BrainChip, Software AG - Crisis and no end
The global economy is suffering from a chip shortage. One reason for this is blown-up supply chains due to the Corona pandemic, leading to production downtime and short-time working, especially in the automotive industry. In addition, with future technologies such as the Internet of Things, autonomous driving and artificial intelligence, there is a higher demand for semiconductors in addition to more powerful processors. An end to this dilemma is far from imminent, according to industry insiders.

Bayer, Sativa Wellness Group, MorphoSys - Can the pharmaceutical industry benefit from the new German government?
The federal election is over, and the pharmaceutical industry has to adjust to the new political constellation. The industry is facing change. Digitization is an important topic. To not lose even more researchers to foreign countries, approval processes must be accelerated and bureaucracy reduced. If we always acted as decisively as we did during the pandemic, much more could be achieved. The new federal government is flirting with the legalization of cannabis. If this were to happen, the market would probably be huge. The next four years promise to be exciting.

Barrick Gold, Standard Lithium, GSP Resource: Commodities booming
Copper, lithium and oil are just a few examples of commodities whose prices are going through the roof. The shares of the producers of these commodities are benefiting as a result. In addition, there is now often a takeover fantasy. This applies, for example, to Standard Lithium. The US explorer has now also published positive data for its project. It also applies to GSP Resource. At least as far as drilling results and takeover fantasy are concerned. The share price, on the other hand, still has room for improvement. The same applies to Barrick Gold. The Q3 figures were convincing, with the gold company earning brilliantly on every ounce, but the shares are trading close to the year's low.

Steinhoff International, Osino Resources, Nordex - Best conditions
Despite concerns about a possible real estate crash in China as well as continued high inflation and investors' fears of demonetization, global indices pushed up again last week and are preparing for another assault on new all-time highs. In addition, strong business figures for the third quarter from the US supported the stock market barometers. The DAX also started the number season with good guidance from the software giant SAP.

Nvidia, Almonty Industries, BP - Scarcity drives prices!
The shift from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources is increasing the need for industrial metals. Copper's excellent thermal conductivity, along with its corrosion resistance, ease of processing, strength, durability and formability, offer unbeatable advantages in solar thermal applications. Tungsten's properties also play an increasingly important role in power, lighting, medical and aerospace applications. Companies producing the critical metal have significant upside opportunities in this regard.

TeamViewer, Aspermont, Commerzbank - One step ahead
The digital age is massively transforming the economy and, as a result, businesses and their business models. Traditional models are being displaced, and new ideas are in demand. The Corona pandemic has highlighted the enormous shortcomings and accelerated the transformation to a digital world. Across industries, companies that embrace and implement this development are likely to be among the winners, while analog companies will lose their competitiveness and disappear from the scene.

Rock Tech Lithium, Barsele Minerals, Standard Lithium, Orocobre - Now the hunt is on!
The lithium herd has started to move tremendously with the federal election. With a Red-Green-Yellow coalition, the market is betting on a fast and consistent approach to implementing the 2030 climate targets. This includes promoting modern technologies from E-mobility to renewable energies and the expansion of hydrogen technology, which is still in its infancy. The protagonists expect the greatest boost to come from subsidies for electrically powered vehicles. In German industry, this was still causing stomach aches 18 months ago, but now the first lithium converter is being built in Brandenburg. We take a look at the hot stock market candidates.

Royal Dutch Shell, MAS Gold, Barrick Gold: Remedies for inflation and crisis
Inflation rates dwarf everything, and any buyer or tradesman has to think back a long time before he can draw a historical comparison with the current situation. However, many economists still appear relaxed: They say that the situation around fragile supply chains and scarce goods will ease next spring. Employment, which is still below pre-Corona levels today, is also expected to pick up speed then. But what if it doesn't?

BYD, dynaCERT, Daimler: Alternative drives are flying again
Trends and moods are sometimes decisive on the stock market: Even a proven future technology has to lose ground when the investor crowd moves on to another industry or prefers to watch the markets from the sidelines. That is what has happened in recent months concerning electromobility and hydrogen. Even big names like BYD and Tesla corrected. However, things have been on the up again for a few days now. We explain where opportunities could lie now.

TeamViewer, Desert Gold, TUI - Full speed ahead to the turnaround?
Sometimes things do not work out as expected on the stock market. At the beginning of October, the DAX started a sell-off, the 200-day line was even clearly undercut twice at 14,850 points, and many crash prophets became quite loud again. However, as is so often the case, they were not right because the market left the October settlement on Friday with 15,594 points. Who would have thought it - a complete 700 point reversal, the proclaimed crash was again canceled without a sound. Despite this, however, individual stocks are struggling with lows right now. We take a look at some turnaround opportunities.

Defense Metals, Nordex, Varta - These are the reasons for the rising prices!
Rare earths are indispensable for the production of laptops, cell phones, electric motors and wind turbines. However, their extraction is complicated, which is why the supply is also relatively low. The EU has classified many of these metals as critical with regard to their availability given their great importance for many industries, also because of China's dominance as the largest supplier. Efforts to build rare earth mines outside China are proceeding at full speed.

China Evergrande, AdTiger, Geely - Great opportunities in China
China cannot get out of the negative headlines. After the government accelerates the regulation of domestic technology groups, the Middle Kingdom is facing the next problem. The impending collapse of Chinese real estate giant Evergrande has been preoccupying the markets for weeks. However, due to the strong correction in recent months, there are attractive entry opportunities, especially in the technology sector. Charlie Munger, for example, long-time business partner of investment legend Warren Buffett, massively increased his stake in online giant Alibaba in the last quarter, according to a report in the Daily Journal.

Rock Tech Lithium, Royal Helium, Gazprom - Commodities as a booster for the portfolio
Inflation is hitting with full force. Construction costs and energy prices are right at the forefront, which currently know only one direction: up. In the USA, the inflation rate was 5.4%, and in Germany, 4.1%. Winter is just around the corner and demand for heating oil, gas, and the like is rising, with no end in sight at the moment. If you want to hedge against rising prices, it is best to buy shares in producers that profit directly from price increases. Today we analyze three companies from the commodity sector.

Newmont Corp, Triumph Gold, Lufthansa, TUI - Dramatic turnaround in the course!
Gold and silver are turning in significantly, Lufthansa and TUI have gone through with their large capital increases - what is next here? Even if the major indices experienced a strong correction in October yesterday, there was a dramatic turnaround in several respects. Volatility as a fluctuation indicator even came back so strongly in the last few days that it fell below the threshold of 20 again. This indicator shows that the need for hedging is probably dwindling, i.e. the interest of the investment community tends to be directed upwards again. But inflation can still put a spoke in the party's wheel - but that would again be a buying argument for the precious metals! We direct our view on some turnaround candidates.

Nordex, Tembo Gold, Plug Power - Great rebound potential
"If you don't have the shares when they fall, you don't have them when they rise", this quote comes from the stock market legend André Kostolany. The words of the old master can be applied to the current state of both the stock and precious metals markets. The renewable energy sector currently offers great comeback opportunities. The prices of most wind, hydroelectric and hydrogen stocks have lost more than half their value in recent months, and the bottoming process is underway. Which companies are coming back and continuing their upward trend?

Bayer, Water Ways Technologies, K+S - Will there be enough food for everyone in the future?
Humanity is growing and growing. In a few years, 10 billion people will populate the earth. The question then arises as to whether there will be enough food available in the future. One of the difficulties is climate change. If it gets hotter and hotter, less will grow, and if agricultural land becomes smaller, less food can be produced. To meet this challenge, yields on arable land must be increased. Fertilizers can help. Another critical factor will be water. Water is already scarce in some parts of the world, and drinking water is far from accessible to everyone everywhere. Today we analyze three companies that could play an important role in the future of food supply.

First Majestic, Silver Viper, Barrick Gold - Best prospects for precious metals
For the first time since December 1993, the inflation rate in Germany reached a value of over 4%. In the USA, too, the rate rose to 5.4%, although economists had actually expected it to fall. Nevertheless, the central banks are currently making no attempt to counter inflation by raising key interest rates. No one wants to jeopardize the tender little plant of the economy after the disastrous Corona year. Surprisingly at first glance, prices for precious metals as a "crisis currency" are not rising to the extent that would be expected. But there are clear signs that demand will increase strongly.

MorphoSys, Sativa Wellness Group, CureVac: Healthcare investments of tomorrow
The healthcare sector is facing a reassessment. For years, especially in Germany, health care has been "fiddled with" - a reform here, a change there, but in basic terms, little has changed in the system in recent years. With the new federal government, things could start to move. Regardless of ideological trench warfare, observers can state, especially under the impression of the pandemic, that innovative treatment methods and preventive care are the most important trends for the future, along with the digitization of the healthcare system. In this context, we present three companies and highlight their opportunities.

Varta, Standard Lithium, Sierra Grande Minerals, Nordex - The next hype rolls in!
In Germany, politics is becoming significantly greener! But what do the mobility concepts of the climate protectors look like? In addition to the publicly demanded reduction of unnecessary business flights, the bicycle would also be an alternative for 30-kilometer journeys. Fossil energy has already become 50% more expensive in 2021, and gas prices are going through the roof. There is still a high demand for energy in Germany because we are currently buying cheap nuclear power abroad. This is how it can go when a botched energy policy is associated with climate protection goals. No matter how things go, the world needs copper for modern technologies, and this raw material, along with lithium and other critical metals, is just terribly scarce. How are the typical industry players doing?

ThyssenKrupp, Graphano Energy, BYD: The hype returns
Prices are rising and the economy is booming. Supply chains are not yet running smoothly again, meaning that many basic materials are expensive. But the signs for rising raw material prices are also good in the long term: New technology is driving demand, both for entirely new applications such as batteries and for infrastructure. Buildings, bridges, wind turbines - all of these will remain a topic for years to come. We present three stocks that could benefit from these developments.

SMA Solar, dynaCERT, TotalEnergies - Good for the climate, good for your portfolio!
The signs of the times are climate protection: In America, Joe Biden is trying to push his Green New Deal through the legislature, China is phasing out the construction of coal-fired power plants, and in Germany, the Greens will most likely be part of the next government. Industry is also rethinking its position. Recently, an alliance of 69 leading German companies called for an "implementation offensive for climate neutrality" within the first 100 days of a new government. Signatories included heavyweights such as SAP, E.ON and Bayer. The following three stocks should get a tailwind from the new climate awareness.

BioNTech, Cardiol Therapeutics, CureVac: A decade's worth of ideas!
Biotechnology remains a hotly contested industry. In the fight against a wide range of diseases, biopharmaceuticals are the first port of call. It studies the relationship between drugs and excipients' chemical and physical properties and their form of administration in a living organism. By directly applying findings from biology and biochemistry, technically functional elements are identified. The central objectives are to research, improve and develop processes for the production of relevant substances. Often research goes nowhere; we take a look at the sector.

Square, BIGG Digital Assets, Advanced Micro Devices - Profiteers of the FinTech and crypto boom
FinTech and crypto are defining investment themes of today. Even though there are now efforts by politicians to curb or regulate cryptocurrencies, they will remain part of our everyday lives in the long run. For cryptos to be usable by the broad population, it is essential to make them easy and safe to trade and use as a means of payment. That requires certified trading platforms and reliable payment service providers. These are not the only ones who will benefit from the development; hardware manufacturers are also in great demand.

BASF, Almonty Industries, Millennial Lithium, BYD - All sold out?
Anyone who can offer scarce raw materials today is in a fortunate position as far as business prospects are concerned. In particular, metals and battery raw materials are in high demand and have become a bone of contention in globalization. That is because many critical metals are majority-owned by China, meaning that the regime decides on potential allocations to foreign countries. Admittedly, the Middle Kingdom wants to stay in business with the West, so long-term contracts exist. Nevertheless, the domestic industry is naturally given preferential treatment; we can only hope for political stability and incremental improvements in the West. Who are the interesting players in the tight commodity market?

XPeng, Central African Gold, Volkswagen - It will not work without metals
Decarbonization is the magic word when it comes to achieving the ever-tighter climate targets. The phase-out of coal and the move away from fossil fuels, oil and natural gas is a done deal. However, considerable quantities of copper, lithium, cobalt and nickel are needed to ensure the energy turnaround, whether for electromobility, solar or wind technology. A limited supply is already matching the enormous demand. A stalling of ambitious plans is already preprogrammed.

Alibaba, AdTiger, ProSiebenSat.1 Media - Christmas business makes the cash register ring in the advertising market
Even before Corona, more and more people were shopping online, and the pandemic has further boosted this trend. Christmas is fast approaching, and this festival of gifts traditionally brings retailers the highest sales. Sitecore has learned from a survey that Christmas shopping will start earlier this year. When talking to local retailers, it is often heard that customers are nowhere near as abundant as they were before the pandemic. Corona rules or mask-wearing obviously bothers some consumers, and so they continue to turn to online shopping. The advertising market will grow significantly in the next two months, both online and offline. So today, we analyze three companies that are involved in advertising and e-commerce.

Infineon, BrainChip, Palantir - Spoiled for choice!
The chip shortage is having an increasingly negative impact on supply chains. In Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, short-time work has now been declared at some suppliers to the automotive industry. First, the pandemic and the associated uncertainties among consumers caused less demand. Now, demand is suddenly back, but it cannot be satisfied because the supply chains from Asia are not yet functioning properly. Market observers expect these constraints to continue into next year. The chip crisis has now existed since the Evergreen disaster in the Suez Canal and seems to be with us for longer. We take a look at some tech stocks in the near vicinity.

The markets are highly nervous at the moment. First, the Corona numbers went up again, then the Chinese real estate giant Evergrande was on the verge of collapse, and the supply chains are still not back in step. The result was falling indexes. That automatically leads to more fear, as the Fear and Greed Index also showed. Last week, the market calmed down slightly, and the fear index dropped from 27 to 34 points. In Germany, there is also the fact that more people have dabbled in equity investments due to a lack of interest rates. According to the Global Wealth Report, the purchase of securities grew by 65%. Many of the newly added shareholders know only rising stock markets. Consolidation would not hurt the market. On the other hand, there is hardly any alternative to investing money at the moment.

Nel ASA, dynaCERT, Plug Power - Hydrogen is part of the energy turnaround
If the upcoming German government wants to achieve the energy transition and banish all fossil fuels such as coal, oil and gas, part of the solution lies with hydrogen. On particularly sunny or windy days, some of the green electricity generated is simply lost. To avoid overloading the power lines, some of the electricity is given away abroad. Using this energy to produce green hydrogen would make the energy produced both storable and portable. If the price per kg of hydrogen could be reduced significantly, the greatest potential for this technology would automatically arise.

Approximately 98% of those eligible for vaccination - including everyone over the age of 12 - have been vaccinated. Germany, with about 64%, is one of the more vaccine-weary nations. What is the secret of the Portuguese? The government relied on an opinion maker from within its ranks, Admiral Gouveia e Melo. An expert in complicated logistical tasks in the military, he was appointed in February as the top leader of the national vaccination campaign. He is never seen without his military combat uniform in numerous public television appearances - and when asked how other countries can move their own vaccination effort forward, the admiral did not hesitate to offer his best advice: "You have to find people who are not politicians."

Indeed, stock market barometers are in correction mode, at least in the short term, with the DAX tearing through the psychologically important 15,000-point mark. Meanwhile, another market is in the starting blocks to make a comeback.

Tembo Gold, Gazprom, Standard Lithium - Annual high or downward trend?
Developments in commodities could hardly be more different at the moment. While gas, oil and also lithium are in strong demand, precious metals are a tragedy. The development of the shares of the companies active in the respective sectors is corresponding. The Gazprom share is at a multi-year high, and energy prices will be a topic at the next EU summit. After the all-time high at the end of September, Standard Lithium is in a sharp correction. Debt-free Tembo Gold is currently interesting for anti-cyclical investors and has published positive news.

Palantir, wallstreet:online, Commerzbank - Significant steps
Stock market trading experienced a real boom last year as a result of the Corona lockdowns. New shareholders, primarily from Generation Z, took a liking to trading in companies. Online brokers' revenue and profit numbers shot through the roof. During the second quarter of 2021, growth now stagnated. The wheat is separating from the chaff. Companies with unique selling points, such as wallstreet:online AG, will continue to grow. Many others will disappear from the playing field.

JinkoSolar, Meta Materials, Encavis - Here comes the sun!
Climate is the dominant topic of our time. Not only has the population understood this and given the Greens a record result in the last federal election, but many companies from traditional sectors such as the automotive industry or heavy industry have now accepted that only green, sustainable technology promises lasting growth. Climate-neutral energy sources are the central element. Associated with this are energy storage challenges and increasing efficiency, which is currently still far from completely replacing fossil fuels. These three stocks will benefit from the upheavals.

Varta, Enapter, NEL: Where hydrogen pays off directly
It is turnaround time! Never before in history will so much be changing as in the next five years. The energy turnaround is switching our supply to renewable energy sources and new storage options, and the mobility turnaround will ensure that electric motors will soon dominate the roads. Although it is clear where the journey is headed, shares based on the new technology offer highly diverse opportunities. We take a look at three stocks.

Siemens Energy, Memiontec, Bayer - GreenTech is making the rounds!
For many people, water is as valuable as gold. Most of the water on our planet, more than 97%, is saltwater. And humans and animals cannot drink that because salt extracts water from the body, you would inevitably dehydrate. Freshwater is distributed unevenly on earth because it is predominantly found in forests and high mountains, and corresponding rainfall is the order of the day. The little freshwater there would be enough for all people - if it were evenly distributed on earth. Developing countries often lack the money to build sewage treatment plants to purify dirty or bacteria-contaminated water. Worldwide, about 4,000 children die every day because they drink contaminated water and become very sick. A reason to act as soon as possible!

BYD, Saturn Oil + Gas, Royal Dutch Shell - Explosion on the oil market
The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries OPEC and its alliance partners led by Russia (OPEC+) have decided to increase production only gradually, despite tight supply. Demand is recovering strongly as the Delta variant of the coronavirus subsides. The result is skyrocketing oil prices, which are the highest they have been in seven years. In contrast, oil producer shares are still far from their highs.

According to the New York Times, the Company plans to seek approval for the booster vaccine. While the FDA has already approved BioNTech's booster vaccine for those over 65, Moderna and Johnson & Johnson have yet to receive approvals. Those are on the agency's Oct. 14 and 15 meeting schedule. BioNTech CEO Ugur Sahin stressed to the Financial Times that there must always be new formulations to stop new virus variants.

China Evergrande, Triumph Gold, Gazprom: Investing in uncertain times
In September, inflation in Germany climbed by 4.1% for the year. Compared with the previous month, prices remained constant. Despite this, more and more people are sounding the alarm bells. Whether in construction, the skilled trades or the auto industry, scarce goods are additionally fueling prices, and now there is also the energy shortage in China - the workbench of the world.

Steinhoff, MAS Gold, Infineon - The sleeping giant
Rising inflation, historically high government debt, and central banks continue to open the money floodgates and keep interest rates at zero. One would think gold should be more in demand than ever due to the general data. But the precious metal has remained in a deep sleep since its highs of last year. The situation resembles that of about 5 years ago. Back then, the gold sentiment was poor, and interest in gold mining stocks was low until the precious yellow metal put in a performance of just under 30% in the subsequent 6 months. Incidentally, the gold mining index XAU exploded by around 180% in the same period.

Clean water is a human right for a reason. When precious water is polluted, diseases spread. Children and the elderly in particular suffer from water pollution.

The delays and interruptions in supply chains are jeopardizing smooth operations in business, industry and trade.

BP, Almonty Industries, Standard Lithium - Which commodities offer the most potential?
Last Tuesday, the barrel of oil reached the USD 80 mark again for the first time since 2018, even though OPEC had recently increased production volumes. The discrepancy between supply and demand obviously could not be closed by the production increase. Comparing tungsten with gold, an investment in tungsten could beat gold by 70% since 2010. In the case of lithium, the price is also rising significantly. The automotive industry has decided to push ahead with its conversion to e-mobility in the interests of sustainability. So, the ambitious goal of charging only USD 100 per KWh of capacity in an e-car battery will not happen, making the price of e-cars much cheaper. Today, we take a look at three companies that produce these raw materials and analyze the potential.

Speculative investments are the salt in the soup on the stock market. Of course, those who rely on ETFs and funds over the long term via a savings plan can already do a lot better than the vast majority of savers. However, those who develop a good knack for speculative individual stocks can give their portfolio a growth kick.

China Evergrande, Troilus Gold, Daimler, BP - With quality against the crash!
In strongly fluctuating markets, good advice is expensive. China Evergrande has divested itself of a bank stake in order to refinance its obligations. Some will say this is already getting down to the wire. China's real estate markets appear to be in serious trouble. We hear little about the default payments to foreign investors, and domestic investors have probably received their interest late. Everything is in the balance here. Meanwhile, the Bund future falls below the critical 170 mark, which means that the European bond markets also suffer from a slight withdrawal of confidence. We look at some standard stocks with high content.

Helium is a sought-after noble gas essential for numerous applications due to its outstanding chemical and physical properties. It is used, for example, as a non-conductive, non-reactive coolant in medical laboratory equipment or in space rockets. It is also in demand in the electronics and nuclear industries. On Earth, helium occurs only in very low concentrations in the atmosphere due to its high volatility, although it is the second most abundant element in the universe after hydrogen. Helium is often a byproduct of oil and gas production. How can investors profit?

JinkoSolar, Memiontec, Encavis - How to profit from the Federal election
Since the Federal election on September 26, it seems clear that the Greens will be in the government. Whether a traffic light or Jamaican coalition, without the Greens, only the GroKo remains, and that is as good as impossible with the CDU as a junior partner. Annalena Baerbock has already made it clear that her party wants to push through demands regarding sustainability. Germany will therefore have to increase its efforts once again. Renewable energies will continue to be promoted, while CO2 emissions will be penalized. This approach can be observed almost everywhere in the world. Reason enough to take a closer look at three companies that are committed to sustainability.

The climate targets formulated are ambitious. According to the Paris Climate Agreement, Germany has committed itself to work with the international community to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees. According to current research, this would only be possible if the Federal Republic became climate-neutral by 2035. Unfortunately, the reality is sobering. For example, in the first 3 quarters of 2021, the share of renewable energies in electricity consumption fell to just 43%. Policymakers must act and rely on the pioneering spirit of young companies.

When Sebastien Thill of Moldovan Champions League participant Sheriff Tiraspol scored the 2-1 winning goal against Real Madrid at the time-honored Bernabeu Stadium a few days ago, the euphoria knew no bounds. When Thill glanced at his smartphone in the hours after the final whistle, the Luxembourger must have been amazed once again: He had received hundreds of messages via social media. The example of the footballer, who was largely unknown until a few days ago, vividly illustrates the power of the media. Just a few seconds in the spotlight are enough to draw millions of people's attention to a topic. The three companies we are presenting today show that money can also be made from this phenomenon.

BIGG Digital Assets: When a growth machine goes mainstream
When new technology catches on, regulation tends to lag behind. In the financial sector, the relevant authorities must approve new products or processes. Otherwise, investors quickly find themselves operating in a gray area. Blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies have been experiencing increasing regulation for several years. Nerds and activists of the first hour fear the independence of the currencies, and investors see the chance for new investment opportunities. In some cases, crypto is already considered a new asset class today. Canadian blockchain company BIGG Digital Assets received welcome news from Canadian regulators today. Netcoins, BIGG's wholly-owned subsidiary, became a regulated crypto exchange in Canada today. This makes BIGG Digital Assets the only listed Company in Canada to offer access to a regulated trading venue for digital currencies based on blockchain technology.

Volatility has increased sharply on the stock markets in recent days. The overall mood is negative. Technology stocks, in particular, are suffering from rising interest rates. In China, energy shortages due to a lack of coal are slowing economic growth, and worries surrounding Evergrande's insolvency continue.

Uncertainty and high volatility! After months of upswing on the capital markets, an uneasy feeling is setting in among investors due to some imponderables in China. The coefficient of fluctuation, expressed by the VDAX and VIX, skyrocketed from values around 17 to 25 early this week. It does not mean much for ordinary investors, but the cost of hedging increases for institutional investors, and those who want to lower the risk a bit have to adjust the investment ratio accordingly. All this is still happening in a relatively stable environment because those who want to get out can still sell at good prices. Where should one look closely now?

Allianz, MAS Gold, Alibaba, Tencent - Better get the sheep in the dry!
The gold price fluctuates with every political news as rarely before. After a good end to 2020 and a conciliatory May, it has been going down again since summer. After USD 2,074 last year, we are already USD 340 lower today, although the political and economic stability has deteriorated. The reason for this is that since the beginning of the pandemic, public budgets have undergone a veritable debt explosion. Inflation is now palpable, and this would be the breeding ground for a value-preserving precious metal investment. Are there other safe havens besides gold?

Deutsche Bank, Aspermont, Square - FinTech approaches promise a lot of potential
For several years now, the FinTech sector has been gaining more and more attention. Digital bank Revolut entered its funding round with a valuation of USD 33 billion. If you compare this value with the market capitalizations of German banks, the valuations are far below FinTech bank, with EUR 23 billion for Deutsche Bank and EUR 6.9 billion for Commerzbank. So big profits can beckon for emerging FinTech companies. These companies no longer have as many staff as traditional banks, and even advisory services are taken over by electronic helpers these days. There is additional pressure on traditional banks due to the zero interest rate policy. So today, we look at three companies looking to expand their businesses in this direction.

Germany increased its spending more than any other country in the process. The incidents in Afghanistan have shown that it is of great importance to be able to act if one wants to play a role on the international stage.

Electromobility is becoming increasingly crucial for the energy transition in transportation. And with it the research, development and production of drives, batteries and components. In addition to electricity storage, however, vehicle cabling and the assembly of e-components are also coming to the fore. Today, an electric vehicle requires three to four times the amount of copper as it did 20 years ago, plus the demand in industrial manufacturing processes. The earth's deposits are exhaustible, and copper, in particular, is pretty much on the edge. A spot price of just under USD 10,000 per kilo clearly shows how the markets are processing this situation. Rising prices!

The federal elections are creating a good mood for solar and hydrogen; whether it is a traffic light or Jamaica, the new government will be greener. So good news for Nel and JinkoSolar. Both have also reported positive news. But oil stocks could also be in for a hot fall. That is because little work is being done on new projects, and demand will remain high for decades to come. So oil could become scarce despite the trend toward clean energy, according to one expert. Saturn Oil & Gas should benefit from this. The Canadians just bought huge oil reserves at a bargain price.

Valneva, Defence Therapeutics, CureVac - Second-tier vaccine makers offer high potential
The battle against the Coronavirus is still ongoing, although more and more people have been vaccinated with vector or mRNA vaccines. In Europe, an average of 60% of all people have received the vaccination. Herd immunity has not yet been achieved, in part because of vaccine skeptics who do not yet trust novel vaccines. New vaccines based on dead viruses promise to remedy the situation. This method has already been tried and tested in influenza vaccinations, for example. According to a study in Switzerland, about 70% of the unvaccinated would still be vaccinated if the method had already been tested. Herd immunity could thus be achieved, and everyday life could return to normal. So, which vaccine manufacturer that does not currently have an approved product could shake up the market?

The upward movement at the stock exchanges is very advanced because, in the last years, the higher valuation of the shares (and real estate) was funded by cheap money from the central banks. Now, however, inflation shows up in the statistics, for Europe officially a plus of 3,8%. This inflation rate, by its measuring method, corresponds little to reality. It is generally known, the actual price markup in the relevant goods might already lie beyond the 5% mark. One thinks here only of the exploding gasoline prices, the bread roll at the baker or the restaurant attendance after the reopening. Precious metals could be a tried and tested means of achieving real purchasing power protection. Let us do the math.

Investors in COVID-19 vaccine manufacturers have had little reason to rejoice in recent weeks. Top dogs Moderna and BioNTech have come back noticeably from their highs. Valneva's stock plummeted on Monday. Only newcomer Defence Therapeutics has held its ground at a high level. But for all of them, the calm could soon be over, and a new high could begin. Because people in other parts of the world are still not vaccinated. In addition, winter is just around the corner in Western countries, which means that Corona rates are rising. In addition, a new study shows the risk of long-COVID - such as memory and concentration deficits - even in children. With this mix, vaccine stocks face an exciting fall.

Likewise, precious metals should rise in times of high inflation, including copper, which is in demand due to the growth of electromobility, among other things.

Alibaba, Kainantu Resources, MorphoSys - The turnaround beckons here
A stock that has fallen sharply can offer the chance to make significant gains relatively quickly. Kostolany once said, "What seems cheap can become much cheaper". In other words, one should be wary of reaching for the falling knife. The shares that you have on your watch list as turnaround candidates should be monitored as closely as possible in order to strike at the right moment. The first thing to do after a stock crash is to wait for it to bottom out. To do this, one observes the Company's earnings position. In addition, the Company's story should fit, and entry should be sought using chart technology. Then nothing stands in the way of more considerable price gains. Today, we look at three companies that could be on the verge of a turnaround.

VERBIO BioEnergie, Sierra Grande Minerals, Barrick Gold: Where timing is almost irrelevant
The markets have been in a celebratory mood since the crash following the outbreak of the pandemic. Slowly, however, critical voices are multiplying. Events such as the imbalance of China Evergrande and also the rising inflation are worrying investors. And now, the US Federal Reserve is threatening to raise interest rates in the coming year. How should investors deal with this situation? We present three hot stocks and explain how they fit the market.

BIGG Digital Assets, Bitcoin Group, Coinbase - Invest in the future with crypto!
The crypto world is developing rapidly and with volatility. In the last few weeks, Bitcoin released another wave upwards, and the benchmark coin was worth a whole USD 50,000 again. However, it did not reach its old high of USD 60,000 in the first swing. Then followed the abrupt crash below USD 40,000 within 24 hours. Time and again, disruptive fire comes from China; the regulators have their eye on the miners and tend to want to ban crypto trading. The reasoning: The trades are opaque, enable criminal payments and lead to unwanted shifts in people's wealth. We take a look at companies that are doing well with the crypto world so far.

Kodiak Copper, Nordex, E.ON - It is not too late!
Certain framework conditions must be in place to successfully implement the energy transition and the roll-out of electromobility. First, sufficient electricity must be produced from renewable energies. Secondly, an efficient energy infrastructure must be established and thirdly, large quantities of relevant raw materials such as copper are required. The three companies below cover the central fields and should therefore be among the winners. Who is making the running?

BYD, Nel, Defense Metals: In which direction is it going?
After the significant setback on Monday, the stock markets are looking for a direction. Individual stocks have held up well in recent days. Among these is Nel. The hydrogen specialist was even able to gain on Monday. That was not the case with BYD, but the shares of the Chinese car manufacturer are holding up surprisingly well given the crisis surrounding the Evergrande real estate group and the regulatory fury of the Chinese government. In addition, there are positive reports from the Company. Defense Metals also has positive news to report. Initial drilling results exceed expectations. All three shares are benefiting from the trend towards alternative drives.

China Evergrande, MAS Gold, Barrick Gold: How to find crisis insurance
The disaster surrounding the Chinese real estate developer China Evergrande is spreading far and wide - even the Deutsche Bank share took a beating at the start of the week. The concerns are obvious: if the Chinese real estate market has to put on the brakes, companies here in Germany could also suffer indirectly. No matter what happens with China Evergrande, the case shows that it pays for investors to hedge against black swans. We explain how this works.

NEL, dynaCERT, Plug Power, FuelCell Energy - Hydrogen, the flagpole is broken!
Today, what a hype, one would say. Those who held their nerve in January and let reality prevail are not the ones who are surprised at the outcome today. Hydrogen was the stuff of dreams for a few weeks, but the barrel foamed over properly. After rises of up to 2500%, almost all H2 stocks went into the cellar. And how dynamic it was! In just 6 months, hydrogen stocks have lost up to 85% again. One wonders: can there be a second wave? The framework parameters are suitable, as both the EU and Joe Biden have agreed on more hydrogen within the climate targets. The only important thing is the exact design of the subsidies because it will probably not be possible without government orders!

Steinhoff, Silver Viper, BYD - Buy when the guns are thundering!
Right now, it is not an easy time for silver fans. After Reddit traders joined forces at the beginning of the year and shot the precious metal not "to the moon", but at least to a high of USD 30.06 per ounce, a sharp correction started, which has led to around USD 22 as of today. Technically, there is still room to go down. Still, from a fundamental perspective, silver is a clear long-term buy because the white metal can support in crisis and is also crucial for producing renewable energy.

GSP Resource, Varta, Rio Tinto - The post-fossil age has begun
The phase-out of fossil fuels is already underway. If we want to do something for the climate, this step is unavoidable. The phase-out is to be offset either by nuclear power or renewable energies. In Germany, we are saying goodbye to both nuclear power and fossil fuels. At the same time, the introduction of renewable energies means that more metals are now needed. Whether silver, rare earths, nickel, cobalt or copper - these metals are necessary for technological progress. Copper, in particular, is essential for electrification, and demand is rising steadily. That is due to the growing sales of electric cars, for which more copper is needed than for combustion engines. Today we look at three companies that have a lot to do with copper.

Barrick Gold, Tembo Gold, Varta - Where is the crisis gold rally?
A lot is going on in the markets. Asia is stumbling; here, the real estate markets had recently euphorically soared, now there are serious concerns. China has been struggling with high vacancy rates in its industrial cities since the pandemic broke out. People have fled the city for fear of infection and returned to the countryside. The resulting de-leveraging puts downward pressure on prices and, ultimately, with interest rates rising slightly, causing significant skewing in a highly leveraged shadow banking world. The imbalance of China Evergrande shows these excesses in pure form. Yesterday, there were wild price falls. The problem: Evergrande has to make high-interest payments, which are due this week. Some investors think back to Lehman Brothers and press the sell button first. What will the Fed say tomorrow in the USA on this subject?

Porsche, Diamcor Mining, Aston Martin - Can it be a little more?
With the stock market upswing between 2015 and 2021, a gigantic shift in wealth took place. 85% of the world's wealth is in the hands of the wealthiest 10%. According to official surveys, just under 57% of people worldwide own assets of less than USD 10,000 - the wealthiest 1% of the earth's population, on the other hand, holds 45% of the assets. In Germany, more than 2 million people live with assets of more than EUR 1 million - in 2010, this figure was still just over 600,000. A nice increase, but luxury is still not only to be found among the wealthy because the desire for extravagance is a widespread character trait and less a question of money.

In addition to the Franco-German aircraft manufacturer Airbus, companies such as the cooking box supplier HelloFresh, Porsche, and the online fashion retailer Zalando will play in the Champions League. The start was bumpy, which was not due to the composition but rather to the looming crisis in China, triggered by the Chinese real estate group Evergrande.

During the last TV debate before the federal elections, the topic of climate protection was hotly debated. In her closing statement, the Green Party candidate said that "as Chancellor, she stands for real change, not doing things by halves when it comes to climate protection." Decarbonization must come about as quickly as possible. However, looking at the current stagnation in the expansion of the infrastructure for renewable energies on the one hand and the shortage of raw materials needed for this on the other, one should at least seriously question the ambitious goal.

The individual protagonists never tire of emphasizing the countless benefits of digitization. The overriding goal is to further improve the quality of life for everyone and to make education accessible to all. Optimally implemented, this would unleash new economic and ecological potential. The German government is spending more than EUR 5 billion on this in 2021, and digitization has already been a fixed item in companies' spending budgets for years.

Infineon, BrainChip, Nvidia - The chip shortage remains
The automotive industry was one of the first to feel the chip shortage. While supply chains typically operate on a just-in-time basis, they had ordered fewer chips due to the Corona Crisis. Then, when it was already too late, they realized that the economy was going unexpectedly well and the chips were running out. However, due to the pandemic, there were restrictions worldwide, so it was impossible to produce and deliver as usual. In addition, the Suez Canal was blocked, and, most recently, a port in China was also completely closed. The supply chains are still disrupted. At the same time, progress goes on and on. Artificial intelligence, cloud computing, autonomous driving, electrification and co. all require chips. Factories are running at full capacity, and yet demand cannot currently be met. Today we analyze three companies from the chip industry.

The gap between rich and poor is widening in Germany. The Corona pandemic has further exacerbated the situation. More than 13 million people, around 16% of the population, were below the poverty line and had to live on EUR 781 or less. In contrast, the number of millionaires in the Federal Republic continued to rise from 1.47 million to the current figure of 1.54 million. Due to the sudden rise of the nouveau riche, consumption and the purchase of luxury goods are also rising. After all, expensive cars, watches and diamonds are essential for prestige, to be able to show one's "wealth".

First Majestic Silver, Silver Viper, Millennial Lithium - Rally Ahead?
A rally in silver was already predicted at the end of last year. The reason was the corona-related 5.9% drop in production. It is the most significant decline in over 10 years, and thus there was a shortfall in supply. In addition, there is strong physical demand, which you can see well on Reddit if you search for "Silverbugs". There, people proudly present their hoarded silver stocks. Since the panic selling at the beginning of August, the price has already risen by 11%. High inflation could give the silver price a further boost. For lithium, on the other hand, the rally is already in full swing. The lithium carbonate price has more than doubled since the beginning of the year. We analyze three companies from these sectors today.

How will the energy transition play out in Europe? With hydrogen is one way. It is costly to produce if you look at the issue sustainably. The raw material itself is seen as an alternative building block of a green future and, according to experts, could become one of the most important energy sources in the coming decades. The water element is available in abundance, but what is lacking is a truly environmentally friendly way to convert it back into hydrogen and oxygen. Even under the best conditions, green hydrogen costs about 10 times as much to produce as Russian natural gas, which also burns fairly cleanly overall. What is next for this sector?

However, the goal of becoming greenhouse gas neutral by 2045 is still a long way off. For this plan to become a reality, wind power still needs to be expanded significantly. The first half of the current year shows that it will not be possible to do without fossil fuels in the coming years. According to calculations by the Federal Statistical Office, over 56% of the total 258.9 billion kWh of electricity generated in Germany came from conventional sources such as coal, natural gas and nuclear energy.

Far more dramatic are the rates of inflation in wholesale prices in Germany. As the Federal Statistical Office recently reported, these rose by 12.3% year-on-year in August.

High inflation keeps investors on their toes. In August, the inflation rate in the US remained at a high level of 5.3% compared to the same month last year, as announced by the Labor Department of the world's largest economy. Therefore, the increase in consumer prices was only slightly below market expectations and the increase in July of 5.4%. Compared with the previous month, prices were 0.3% higher. Inflation data usually brings momentum to commodity stocks - positive as well as negative. This is as true for Barrick Gold as for Central African Gold, with one on a good path to higher prices.

Rare earths are found in almost all new technologies such as smartphones, e-cars, etc. The leading supplier is China. Rare earths occur more often than one might think, but mining them is rarely economically profitable. Thus, China has a kind of monopoly position. With the trade dispute between the US and China brewing, more people realize that Western countries should seek alternative access to rare earths. If China limits exports, it would quickly lead to shortages. Accumulators or batteries would soon become scarce. Due to sustainability issues, the increased demand can already be seen in the increased prices for rare earths.

From A for antimony to V for vanadium, the European Union's list of critical raw materials now includes 30 materials, including lithium, cobalt, rare earths and tungsten. These raw materials are characterized by low availability and high economic importance. Many key European industries rely on these raw materials, such as the automotive, steel, aerospace, IT, healthcare, or renewable energy sectors. Demand is increasingly being driven by new products and technologies such as electromobility, digitalization and the energy transition. The supply cannot keep up with this. Bottlenecks are emerging, which, among other things, are leading to higher prices for the critical raw materials and posing major challenges for demand-side industries. How can investors position themselves successfully?

Gazprom, Barsele Minerals, Agnico-Eagle, Nordex - The energies of the future!
Election Sunday in Germany is approaching. No matter who will win the race at the end of September, the goals in climate policy have been put on the agenda by every party. In the future, it will not be possible to ignore this issue because young voters, in particular, are rightly concerned about the living conditions for the next generations. The decisive factor will be the course set in energy policy.

Bayer, Saturn Oil + Gas, TUI - Which share will be the first to take off?
We have often heard that the profit is in the purchase; however, it is difficult to predict the low of a share and then enter at that low. Often it is better to wait for a reversal using charting techniques, which increases the probability of finding a profitable trade. Those who buy falling knives have certainly suffered losses more often. But there are always stocks that are not "in" with investors, so it takes longer to get the share price going. Especially companies that have had problems in the past must first regain the trust of their shareholders. Today we analyze the prospects of three companies that have had problems in the past and want to take off.

K+S, Deutsche Rohstoff, Barrick Gold: How investors profit from inflation
Prices are rising and rising! In August, inflation rose more sharply than at any time in the last 28 years. It rose by an average of 3.9% compared with the same month of the previous year. The main price drivers were food and energy commodities. But other products and services are also becoming more and more expensive. Here is how investors can take this trend into account in their portfolios.

Sierra Grande Minerals, Barrick Gold, Sibanye Stillwater - Tempting valuation levels
Patience is a virtue. Especially on the stock market, investors are often required to be patient. Why do rising prices take so long to materialize, even though the relevant facts are already on the table? One or the other investor who has invested in commodity shares has undoubtedly experienced this or a similar situation. But those who take a longer-term view and make the proper sense of the relevant framework conditions that determine supply and demand will be successful. Precious metals have proven to be a protection against inflation over long periods of time. Various raw materials such as copper and lithium are experiencing rising demand as a result of electromobility. These three stocks offer opportunities.

Enapter, NEL, Ballard Power - Hydrogen: This will happen!
If you follow the political discussion in Germany regarding climate and green energy, the debate is almost exclusively about solar and wind power. Electric mobility is the order of the day. But soberly considered, there will and must be a coexistence of several approaches. Hydrogen solutions have received far too little attention. But this technology is urgently needed for the energy transition. The industry is still relatively young, but there is a very good chance that a huge market will emerge in which several companies will be able to operate successfully and profitably. Are these the winners?

So far, vaccine manufacturers can maintain their high valuation because the next wave of new infections is rolling in. In Germany, tests will be subject to fees starting in October, making public life more expensive for those who want to participate. In surveys, most German citizens have expressed support for fee-based testing; probably, the populations here should be separated into "vaccinated" and "unvaccinated" to indicate general opinion accurately. Four interesting values benefit from the current situation.

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.

Investing in shares consists of striving for a return on the capital invested. In recent months, there have been many stocks that have increased tenfold in price. However, only few investors had persevered. If one lowers one's targets somewhat and still maintains a reasonable profit expectation, even a threefold increase could bring great joy.

SMA Solar, Standard Lithium, Almonty Industries: Between profit warning and supercycle!
It is not only semiconductors that are in short supply, but also numerous industrial raw materials. The situation is only getting worse. In the case of lithium, demand is expected to increase fivefold in a few years. Tungsten is also in demand, and China is an unreliable quasi-monopolist. As a result, raw materials are in short supply, and prices are rising. More and more companies are suffering as a result, like Germany's SMA Solar. The inverter manufacturer had to cut its forecast and analysts promptly reduced their price targets. On the other hand, some companies are benefiting from the situation. Highflyer Standard Lithium is one of them. Due to positive industry and company news, the share is accelerating again. Almonty Industries is also facing exciting months.

The topic of sustainability is increasingly on people's minds. Five years ago, the subject was not even interesting to most. Now, more than 80% of people are thinking about it. Companies' customers spend more money if a product is sustainable; it is a sign of quality and gives them a positive image. If you use sustainable electricity and use resources sparingly, you can also save costs. All these are reasons why renewable energies and e-mobility are currently becoming more and more important.

There is a growing concern in the German economy that rapidly rising raw material prices will jeopardize the upswing in the future. Thus, the head of the Munich-based economic research institute Ifo, Clemens Fuest, warns: "If commodity prices continue to rise significantly across the board in the coming years, this could become a problem." He is referring to the upswing because supply chains are already severely disrupted by the pandemic. The temporary failure of the Suez Canal has even led to a delay of several months in the delivery of high-tech products.

The global chip markets remain tight, and a recent PwC study predicts that the global semiconductor market will continue to experience solid growth years. The authors forecast that chip sales will rise to USD 575 billion as early as 2022. Starting from the USD 481 billion in the previous record year 2018, this would correspond to a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.6% - not even the pandemic slowed this increase noticeably. In Europe, the automotive industry will become the primary sales market for chip manufacturers. A new growth driver is semiconductors to support artificial intelligence (AI) in autonomous mobility.

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.

The international supremacy of the USA is closely linked to the status of the US dollar as the world's reserve currency. However, the United States has turned the debt wheel too far and weakened itself through unwise policies. Outdated power interests and isolationism hinder economic dynamism, and they undermine well thought-out trade strategies. Asia has relied on modern infrastructure for decades, and not just at home. Public infrastructure in the US is dilapidated to the level of the last millennium. The new Silk Road and the takeover of international seaports and airports have recently given China a crystal-clear lead. That is why the Silk Road does not end in New York but Europe.

Deutsche Rohstoff, K+S, Royal Dutch Shell - Where to invest as fund managers cut equity exposure?
A look at the Global Fund Manager Survey conducted by Bank of America shows the views of Fund managers have changed significantly in the past month. Only 27% now expect the global economy to be strong, compared with almost twice as much optimism the previous month. One reason is the expectation that the FED will noticeably turn off its monetary tap at the end of the year. The money glut has sparked inflation, which can be seen clearly in commodity prices. All these are reasons why the cash quota in the funds is being increased, and the equity quota decreased. The high commodity prices are benefiting commodity producers in particular, which is why we are looking at three companies from this sector today.

When the stock market has already made a decent run, many investors search for laggards or game-changers. In the case of the so-called laggards, 90% of the reasons why the stock is not performing are fundamental, usually due to complicated or low-margin business models or simply a wrong management approach. The temptation is great to buy charts at the bottom right of the screen according to the motto: "Now the downward trend is over!". This view is unfortunately 90% wrong because the stock market is trend and momentum-driven. So what remains is to try to find so-called "game-changer" stocks. Here, the entire situation changes fundamentally due to an event, and the trend often turns with an initial price jump.

Whether e-mobility, aircraft technology or renewable energies, all high-tech segments of industry require raw materials and processed materials in ever-increasing amounts. Currently, the problem lies in procurement. The relevant tonnages cannot be mined in the world's mines because many projects are only at the beginning of development or are operating at their limit. A lithium mining site needs about 5 years of gestation time. It is about 7 years for copper with high 3-digit million amounts required as basic investment capital.

Porsche, Blackrock Silver, Xiaomi - These stocks are making headway!
Last week, the stock markets were eagerly awaiting the statements of US Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell. His words reassured investors, as the tightening of the reins on the printing press is to be more gradual, and interest rate hikes are currently not an issue. From December, bond purchases are to be reduced by USD 15 billion. The US indices then rose again to near their all-time highs. But even without such events, which the whole world is watching, there are always stocks where exciting things are happening that can boost the stock market price. We are taking a closer look at three of these candidates today.

First Hydrogen, Nel, Plug Power, FuelCell Energy - Is the next Hydrogen rally coming?
Hydrogen is repeatedly put forward as a solution for climate-neutral energy production. A strong distinction must be made for climate protection because only green hydrogen - produced from 100% renewable energy - is truly climate-friendly. Insufficient differentiation between hydrogen types has fatal consequences for the globe. In a recent study, scientists at the University of Standford in California prove that blue hydrogen, produced from natural gas in combination with the injection of the resulting CO2 through carbon capture-and-storage, actually has a significantly worse climate balance than the direct combustion of crude oil and natural gas. Significant methane gas emissions in production mainly cause this. Today we look at interesting values in the hydrogen environment.

Central African Gold, Nordex, Varta - Performers for the second half of the year!
Climate and energy transition are more than just buzzwords. They affect us all to an ever increasing extent. The production of green energy and the currently also politically favored spread of electric mobility place considerable demands on the availability of raw materials, the sufficient production of green energy and the existence of an area-wide infrastructure. As steering mechanisms, states offer extensive support measures. A market for emission certificates creates incentives as well. It is also important to keep an eye on the development of increasingly stringent ESG standards in the investment sector. Companies that do not do their homework will sooner or later lose out. These three companies have the potential to profit from the energy transition. Who will win the race?

Huge opportunities at Steinhoff, Saturn Oil + Gas, MorphoSys
The second-quarter reporting season is drawing to a close and was exceptionally strong. Earnings estimates had already been raised in the run-up to the quarter and were even exceeded again due to the economic recovery following the disastrous Corona year 2020. Looking at the forecasts of most companies for the full year, these were also raised. As a result, some stocks are facing a revaluation that the broader market has yet to realize.

Teck Resources, GSP Resource, Standard Lithium: Thinking of the good times
The summer has caused a lethargic mood on the stock market. There are inflation concerns, and also, the pandemic is again leading to many hospitalizations in many countries. Nevertheless, the markets seem to have weathered the worst. The closer we get to fall, the more likely future issues will dominate the market again. Whenever issues of mobility or regenerative energy come up, commodities also come into play. We take a look at three shares related to popular commodities.

wallstreet:online AG, AMC, GameStop, Robinhood - The hunting season has begun!
As of September 20, the DAX, like its French counterpart CAC, will be expanded to 40 stocks, which means that 10 new stocks will move into the focus of major fund managers. One or the other may have been surprised by this decision because, after all, Germany's 30 most valuable companies have reflected the development of the German economy very well for decades. However, international investors and funds appreciate more diversity, especially sector diversification. It is also hoped that the new insolvency clause will mean that criminal incidents, such as those involving Wirecard, will not have to be discussed at index level for long and will continue to affect derived derivatives for months afterward. Entry and exit criteria are also to change, from now on, minimum liquidity counts instead of trading turnover, and the Corporate Governance Code will become binding from September 2022. Modernization has been long overdue since Wirecard.

LVMH, Diamcor Mining, Daimler: Enduring stocks from the luxury segment
Fancy watches, sparkling necklaces or a classy bag - in dreary times, people with money like to enjoy luxury items. Even though the Corona Crisis initially hurt the industry - after all, luxury goods are typically purchased while traveling - the sector is once again on the upswing. Asian customers, in particular, are keen to treat themselves. China's emerging middle class is so large that even large luxury companies are ringing the cash register. We take a look at three shares from the sector.

Orocobre, Kodiak Copper, Infineon Technologies - Good for the climate, even better for your portfolio
Heat records and droughts on the one hand and heavy rainfall and flooding on the other - climate change is no longer an abstract threat but a reality. Speculating about the causes is idle. It is more important to tackle the problem. Phasing out coal-fired power generation by 2038? Much too late, experts criticize. And politicians are also slowly realizing that it is already five to twelve. That is why they are really stepping on the gas! We need to say goodbye to the combustion engine, decarbonize industrial production, and expand renewable energy sources. But this requires certain raw materials. Here are three companies with a bright future ahead of them.

Globally, infection numbers are rising dramatically due to the highly contagious Delta variant. According to the RKI, 12,626 new infections were reported in Germany alone, 4,226 more than a week ago. With the incidence rising above the authoritative level of 35, greater emphasis is again being placed on the rule, vaccinated, recovered or tested. As a result, demand for PCR or rapid tests is skyrocketing. Diagnostic companies, like vaccine producers, are in for a warm cash shower.

Alibaba, AdTiger, Baidu - Advertising market in digital transformation
With the success of the Internet, there have been numerous shifts in analog advertising. Print sales are steadily declining because people are looking more and more to the Internet for information. Nowadays, younger people look more at their smartphones or tablets than at the TV. Efforts are being made to better integrate TV programming with content from the Internet because advertising is most profitable where people spend the most time. In Asia, in particular, companies are very progressive in the field of digital advertising. Therefore, we look at three companies from the Far East that have brought the advertising market to the Internet.

Pure Extraction, Nikola, SFC Energy - Is Elon Musk wrong with his hydrogen forecast?
On the subject of eMobility, Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla Automotive, takes a clear position: In the future, cars and transport vehicles will be electric, and the energy they need will come from batteries. Any other solution is unthinkable for him, as he recently let slip in a mocking remark when asked about hydrogen as a fuel. But even Elon Musk is not always right. Many respected scientists around the world recognize the advantages of hydrogen technology. Particularly in combination with a fuel cell, the advantages of rapid refueling and trouble-free gas transport to even the remotest corners of the earth do not seem to be underestimated. These stocks benefit from the triumph of hydrogen technology!

NanoRepro, Aztec Minerals, Xiaomi - The tension is rising
On Friday, the US Federal Reserve symposium gets underway in Jackson Hole. The strong recovery of the economy after the Corona lockdowns and the strong pick-up in inflation pointed to an end of unlimited bond purchases and the first interest rate hikes. But FED Chairman Jerome Powell sees the rise as temporary and is likely to be right. Rising infection figures due to the highly contagious Delta variant are throwing a spanner in the works of further economic growth. Thus, both Jackson Hole and the upcoming FED meeting are likely to be a non-event.

Deutsche Rohstoff, Royal Dutch Shell, BP, Standard Lithium: Suddenly, oil is back!
Looking at the oil prices is really astonishing. Just last week, the price of a barrel was unwaveringly on its way down, with Brent crude even marking a 3-month low of USD 64.9 on the spot market. Then the direct reversal and a pronounced rally upwards to courses of USD 71.8 yesterday morning. The weaker US dollar and the dwindling fears of the Delta variant, which rages in China's major cities less than initially expected, are sought as reasons. As a result, the short-term demand worries have evaporated again. But another reason is also on the table: The events in Afghanistan are again bringing great unrest to an important oil and raw materials region. That pushes the prices further!

Lang & Schwarz, NEL, GSP Resource - Short-term or long-term rebound?
No annual general meeting, no dividend, in-house tax discovery and loss of confidence - the news from Lang & Schwarz on Tuesday could hardly have been more severe. Accordingly, the share price fell by more than 35% in after-hours trading. On Wednesday, the share price rebounded with a double-digit gain. But the possible involvement of the stockbroker in the Cum-Ex deal will certainly keep investors busy for longer. The NEL share also made significant gains on Wednesday. It benefited from an order and the generally friendly mood in the hydrogen sector. Copper specialist GSP Resource has been on the rise again for some time because the raw material could soon become scarce. When asking how sustainable the rebound is in each case, one should look at the details.

The market for information services has accelerated dramatically since the dawn of the mobile age. Whereas in the past, it was largely anonymous Internet users who were the first participants in the digital birth, today, the collection and processing of user-related data is the linchpin for every mobile service. The age of Big Data is the latest manifestation. Here information is collected and aggregated, which later flows into marketing campaigns or new services. Since 2007, the smartphone has ruled the digital business world. Never before have more user characteristics been offered for sale voluntarily and free of charge. The mobile customer has become a transparent consumer and today sees almost exclusively the content relevant to them on their device.

Nel ASA, dynaCERT, Steinhoff - Boost for the portfolio with turnaround candidates
As the saying goes, the profit is in the purchase, but it is often not easy to determine the "bottom" on the stock market. Many factors need to be taken into account. First, there is the corporate sector and its sentiment. Is there fantasy? Is the market in trend? Then one should look at the fundamentals. Is there debt? Is the company making money? What is the sales growth, and what are the forecasts? After that, one can look at the varying analyst opinions and set up one's own rating system that awards points for different aspects. Using this checklist, one can quickly determine whether a company is attractive. In every portfolio there should be standard stocks, which make up the majority of the portfolio. A small part of the portfolio can be invested in speculative stocks, as they offer significant profits that can give the portfolio a boost. Today we take a closer look at three of these turnaround candidates.

JinkoSolar, Blackrock Silver, Standard Lithium: The winners of the climate turnaround
Renewable energy is the essential key to climate neutrality. Even the solar energy that reaches the earth in just one hour would be enough to supply the world with electricity for a year. So it makes sense to tap into more of this energy. Since solar modules and photovoltaic systems currently produce around twenty times more energy over their lifetime than is needed to manufacture them, the approach pays off. We present three companies involved in renewable energies and highlight their current opportunities.

While Western aid organizations are flying their staff out of Afghanistan, the political interests of direct neighbors of Afghanistan are increasing. At the crossroads of South Asia, Central Asia and the Middle East, the landlocked country borders Iran, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, the People's Republic of China and Pakistan. Three-quarters of the country consists of mountainous regions that are difficult to access. After the almost complete withdrawal of international troops, the new rulers announced the creation of the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan. China sees itself as a possible savior of the first hour and wants to come to the shattered country's aid quickly. Of course, access to critical raw materials is at stake.

Plug Power, Enapter, Ballard Power - What is the future of hydrogen?
In the passenger car sector, the battle for hydrogen fuel cells seems lost, as the entire automotive industry is focusing on the production of e-cars. In the commercial vehicle sector, there is still hope for the hydrogen industry. The prerequisite for this, however, is inexpensive hydrogen, and this is not yet available. Promises of subsidies due to climate protection for the hydrogen sector should give a boost, but the extreme overvaluation built up in shares from the hydrogen sector up to the end of January has not yet been completely eroded in some cases. After the FED indicated in its latest minutes that it would abandon its loose monetary policy, uncertainty is spreading among many North American hydrogen companies. Today, we take a look at three hydrogen companies.

Discussions to end the ultra-loose monetary policy of both the FED and the ECB and a reduction in monthly bond purchases are currently in full swing. Fears of possible interest rate hikes due to rising inflation recently sent the gold price into flash crash mode. In the process, the precious metal lost more than USD 100 per ounce overnight and stopped short of marking a new low for the year. Since then, the crisis currency has stabilized again and could generate a new buy signal in the short term. In the long-term, gold is likely to shine brightly again due to the current framework data.

Standard Lithium, Aztec Minerals, Orocobre - Take advantage of trading opportunities!
Raw materials are a prerequisite for any kind of production. The more there is produced, the more raw materials are needed. Precious metals are also suitable as an investment. Historically, they are always in demand when inflation rises. Commodity prices are thus subject to many factors. Some of which can neutralize each other, and some of which can reinforce each other. For example, the persistently high inflation of over 5% in the USA speaks for an increasing flight of investors into precious metals and, thus, rising commodity prices. While at the same time, the semiconductor crisis, which is currently occurring, is causing production cutbacks and idle assembly lines. That means that fewer raw materials are needed, which in turn puts pressure on prices. What is the best strategy now and which share has the greatest potential?

The "Second Summer with Corona" has seen a resurgence in international travel, even though not all corners of the globe have returned to pre-pandemic levels. At least, however, the lockdowns have largely disappeared, restaurants are open again, and cultural life is gradually returning. The travel industry is experiencing this period in different ways. For example, first, there were problems with the allotments due to many hotel bankruptcies, but then these were increased at short notice and ultimately, special promotions had to be called to sell them off. In the end, price increases could not be implemented. People's travel behavior is changing in the long term, as is society as a whole. The travel industry is, therefore, seemingly only at the beginning of a far-reaching structural change.

The inflation rate in the US was 5.4%, as in the previous month, and currently remains high. Following the port closure in China, it can be assumed that supply chains will continue to be disrupted. In addition, the Delta variant is causing rising incidences. Therefore, the market is currently nervous and anticipates a possible correction. Gold is still popular as an inflation hedge.

Here, too, it is crucial which resources are used to recover the metals. Currently, some copper projects are under development, but it will take 2-3 years before they can deliver. Part of the whole castling will also be the power companies because they have to provide the planned power purchase for the coming years, and this could be tight, especially for Germany.

Research conducted in July with 1,000 European companies found that all respondents expect commodity prices to continue to rise. In part, these price increases we have seen over the past year are due to the Corona Pandemic. During the lockdown, production of raw materials was shut down, and when demand suddenly increased noticeably, they were not prepared for it. Supply chains are still disrupted today. But thanks to rising vaccination rates, the economy is picking up again in many parts of the world. Demand for oil remains high in the long term, and gold is still in its long-term uptrend despite the short-term sell-off.

Biopharmaceutics is the first port of call in the fight against a wide range of diseases. It studies the relationship between drugs and excipients' chemical and physical properties and their form of administration in a living organism. Biological effectiveness results from the entry of the drug into the diseased organism, its distribution in tissues, and the chemical reaction called metabolism. When dealing with recent pandemics, good advice is expensive, and research into pharmaceuticals costs billions. When an active ingredient is found and registered, the patent clock starts ticking for the inventor. As a result, the hope of the biopharmaceutical company is to remain the sole provider in their healing segment for as long as possible.

Barrick Gold, Blackrock Silver, Glencore - Inflation is coming and commodities are taking off!
In recent months, it has become clear to investors that the global economy will have to contend with price increases after the pandemic. The greatest inflationary pressure comes from scarce raw materials, especially for high-tech industrial goods. The trend toward climate protection is forcing the industry to adapt its manufacturing processes to conserve resources. It requires investment in new equipment, filter systems and more efficient energy use. Explorers and mature commodity companies face different challenges: they now have to invest intelligently in future projects without certainty of how high the demand will be in 5-10 years and at what prices they can sell then. It is all a question of foresight and the validity of mathematical models!

On Monday, negative news from Asia weighed in on the mood: In China, the retail and industry's economic data were weaker than expected. In addition, the spread of the Delta variant of the Covid-19 virus is worrying market participants. On the corporate side, analysts are speaking out. Varta, for example, has failed to meet expectations, and the forecast hangs on Apple. In contrast, the shares of Nordex and Saturn Oil & Gas have been recommended as a buy. A 200% price potential beckons.

Memiontec, Bayer, Aurubis - Do not miss this trend!
According to estimates by some experts, water demand will already exceed supply by 40% in 2030. That is a dramatic forecast and should wake us up. Of course, climate change is an influencing factor. The increasing water consumption of agriculture in the wake of the growing population presents us with major challenges. In addition, water treatment plays a central role. Some promising investment ideas can be derived from the scarcity problem of the vital resource water.

Deutsche Bank, Aspermont, Tencent: Where the tech boom starts
Those who want to make money tend to look to industries where a lot of money is also turned over. Classic sectors are banking or real estate. But things are also going well in manufacturing: Those who have unique products worldwide are happy about high margins. Particularly in technological change, this also includes commodities - as the name already says, there is no business without these goods. We present stocks related to finance, technology and commodities and highlight a value that can be considered an insider tip.

BioNTech, XPhyto Therapeutics, Siemens Healthineers - Corona has triggered a boom
While many companies have suffered greatly from the Corona pandemic, there are also a number of winners. First and foremost, vaccine manufacturers but also diagnostics companies experienced substantial growth rates in sales. Irrespective of Corona, it is increasingly crucial for the healthcare sector to push ahead with digitization, especially in diagnostics. Here, digitization offers the opportunity to significantly increase the quality and speed of diagnoses through artificial intelligence. Time, in particular, is an important factor here. Today, we take a closer look at three beneficiaries of the Corona Crisis.

Alcoa, FYI Resources, Varta, Nordex - Ready for takeoff in the high-tech sector?
The current climate trend makes a necessity obvious - our planet needs relief from CO2 and further investments in sustainable energy generation. Global warming is already well advanced, and we will likely no longer stop the dangerous basic trend. Therefore, the decisive factor for our future actions remains the "impact", i.e. the intensity and quantity of the production of pollutants. Many companies have already taken hold of the baton and are converting their processes, while others are trapped in old operating procedures and are acquiring pollution certificates. The industrial value chain starts with explorers and mining companies, followed by the basic materials industry. We look at some representatives of this supply chain.

Freenet, Deutsche Rohstoff, Palantir - The clock is ticking
The German parliamentary elections are on September 26, which means there are just under 6 weeks left in which Baerbock, Laschet and Scholz vie for the favor of voters. Climate protection is one of the most important campaign issues. If you look at the party programs, the energy transition enjoys the highest priority among the Greens. They plan an immediate climate protection program that will quickly initiate effective measures in all areas and remove obstacles to expanding renewable energies. To this end, the Climate Protection Act is to be tightened up. Emissions will be reduced by 70% by 2030, and Germany will be climate-neutral by 2035. It should already be clear to every German citizen entitled to vote that much of what is planned in theory can hardly be implemented, or at least not within the specified timeframe.

NEL, Pure Extraction, Deutsche Post: Hydrogen becomes practical
The Union's candidate for chancellor and CDU chairman Armin Laschet only received a loud laugh when he asked Tesla boss Elon Musk about the chances for hydrogen as a fuel for cars. The question is entirely justified. Although the trend for cars is clearly towards electric vehicles, hydrogen could be the solution for delivery vans, trucks or ships. Reason enough to take a closer look at participating companies and potential customers.

NEL, dynaCERT, FuelCell Energy, Plug Power - Is hydrogen about to explode next?
Not only is the EU tightening its climate targets, but around the globe, more and more countries are decarbonizing their economies. The subject of hydrogen is providing the rainmaking impetus for discussion. Since the closing of ranks on e-mobility, however, it is no longer the focus of attention. However, according to the World Energy Council (WEC) analysis, at least 20 countries that account for almost half of global economic output have adopted a national hydrogen strategy or are at least close to doing so. Leading the way are Japan, France, South Korea, the Netherlands, Australia, Norway, Spain and Portugal. But Russia, China, Morocco and the USA are also working on their strategies. Australia and China are leading the way, while Europe and the Middle East are already doing a lot. We take a look at the premier league of H2 values.

Alibaba, Kainantu Resources, JinkoSolar - Asia as a global economic engine
Asia's influence on the global economy has been growing for years. On the one hand, as a sales market - Germany now transports 16% of its exports to Asia - on the other hand, its share of the world's gross domestic product is increasing. In 2019, 71% of global economic growth came from the Asia-Pacific region. Exports also contributed to this. Almost twice as much was exported to Germany in 2019 as ten years earlier. This year, economic growth in Asia will again be higher than in the rest of the world. This is primarily due to China. Today we are therefore highlighting three companies from the Asia-Pacific region.

Steinhoff, Kodiak Copper, NIO - At the beginning of the trend
Rising inflation is making living more expensive. The culprit for the increase - in Germany, consumer prices rose by 3.8% in July compared to the same month last year - is increasingly expensive raw materials. In addition to agricultural commodities such as corn and wheat, metals in particular, which are urgently needed for the energy transition, are going through the roof. There is no end in sight to the price increase here; economists are already talking about a supercycle lasting years.

Even if inflation in the US has fallen slightly compared to the previous month, it is still at a high level of over 5%. This cannot be explained away. Despite all efforts of central bankers worldwide to regard the high inflation as only a temporary phenomenon, it is more advisable to adjust to the more realistic scenario of a persistently high inflation rate. To protect oneself as an investor against the loss of purchasing power, it helps to invest in tangible assets such as shares, real estate and commodities.

Whether e-mobility, aircraft technology or renewable energies - there are inherent scarcities and political implications in many high-tech materials essential for the German economy and future and resource-efficient technologies. Their production and further processing cost a lot of precious energy, and not all environmental or health impacts have been clarified. Mining companies and processing industries are therefore required to observe sustainability principles and not just implement them on paper. Some companies take a proactive approach to this issue, while others must first be forced into line politically. We take a look at some of the protagonists.

"Thinking about Tomorrow Today" is a quote that not only corporate leaders need to follow when it comes to establishing new business models to secure the future. It also applies to the energy transition. What use are ever more sharply formulated climate targets by politicians if it is not even certain at the moment where the scarce raw materials for the production of renewable energies such as electromobility, photovoltaics or wind power are to be obtained from over the next few years. The companies that have already thought about tomorrow are therefore becoming the new stars on the stock market.

Electromobility is becoming increasingly important for the energy transition in transportation. And with it the research, development and production of batteries, especially in Germany as a high-tech location. In addition to performance, the sustainability of batteries plays a decisive role. In particular, this includes fair and sustainable sourcing of raw materials, a high proportion of renewable energies, and optimal energy efficiency in production. Completing the battery cycle would be intelligent reuse and a closed resource cycle through recycling. Some metals on this earth are extremely scarce and rarely occur in nature. They take on a strategic dimension in the context of climate protection.

Nel ASA, First Hydrogen, Plug Power - Hydrogen market awaits impetus
Since sustainability and climate protection have come more and more into focus, the hype around hydrogen stocks has also been in full swing. This rally in almost all stocks continued until the end of January. Some of the company valuations were astronomically high. Since investors have been looking more at key figures, the share prices of hydrogen companies have been falling. The key objective is to lower the cost of hydrogen. That would make it economically viable, and the share prices of companies in the hydrogen market would rise significantly again. Currently, the market is waiting for impetus. A lot of funding is being made available in Europe and the USA for hydrogen development. Today we take a closer look at whether there is already impetus from the companies.

Shares of Corona vaccine and test manufacturers are in for a hot fall. Summer is drawing to a close, and the Delta variant is hard to stop. Calls for stricter measures are growing. Politicians are calling for vaccination premiums and mandatory testing for travelers returning home. The 1st FC Cologne recently announced that it would only allow vaccinated people into the stadium. BioNTech, NanoRepro and XPhyto are among the beneficiaries of this development. The latter Company could also benefit from demands from politicians.

Whether with one's smartphone, at the supermarket checkout or on our PC - the Internet is present every day. On average, we use our or other mobile devices and PCs 20 times a day for search processes, social media, work access or shopping transactions. The number of Internet users worldwide has risen continuously and amounted to around 4.1 billion in 2020, which means that the number of online users has increased globally by about 125% percent within ten years. At the beginning of 2021, Asia is estimated to have been the region with the most Internet users, namely 2.7 billion. EMEA followed at a great distance with around 750 million, but North America represents the region with the highest proportion of Internet users. The estimated penetration rate there was about 92%, while Europe is currently at 81%. Asia still ranks well below the global average at around 63%.

Currently, metal prices are not calming down! That puts pressure on the supply chains. Many companies are struggling with their inventories at the moment. If too much is ordered, the shelves could overflow due to delays in completion and cause extreme costs later on because high working capital is a margin killer for the industry. But the problem is also more topical in nature. There are many orders on hand, but essential components such as chips are unavailable, causing sales to decline, despite full order books. Conversely: When everything returns to normal, prices for metals will probably have to correct sharply again because no one will order more because of full warehouses - a real dilemma for mines and industrial customers alike.

BYD, GSP Resource, Standard Lithium - Lithium hype, but do not forget copper
In recent weeks, real hype has broken out around lithium. It is said that lithium producers cannot adapt to demand so quickly. Due to the radical change of course in the automotive industry away from the combustion engine to the e-car, the demand for lithium will increase considerably. The price of lithium has already doubled from USD 5,000 to USD 10,000. It is expected that demand will increase by 300%. It should not be forgotten that copper is also essential for the switch to e-mobility. But it is not just in that sector that the demand for copper is increasing; worldwide, more and more people are gaining access to electricity. Today, we look at BYD, a manufacturer of e-vehicles, and two potential suppliers of copper and lithium.

Hydrogen is an excellent alternative to battery-powered vehicles. A hydrogen car can be refueled in less than 5 minutes and still achieve long ranges of 400 to 650 kilometers. The fuel cell generates the electricity for the electric drive on board through the reaction of hydrogen with atmospheric oxygen. The by-products are heat and water, but no local emissions. The technology clearly scores with a high system efficiency of around 60%. The fuel cell is thus a much more efficient drive than a combustion engine, which has an efficiency of only 20 to 30%. We show you how you can benefit from the hydrogen revolution.

Chart analysis is a popular tool among traders and investors to optimize trading in securities or derivatives. The goal is to forecast future price developments based on charting techniques. However, there is a need to remember that under the assumption of efficient market theory, a chart already contains all the available information. Unfortunately, there are as big misunderstandings in chart interpretation as in fundamental analysis. In charts, formations may or may not indicate a breakout, whereas fundamental information has historical and future significance. In all assumptions, we naturally assume that the stock market is always right, meaning that the current price reflects the Company's value at any point in time.

Infectious diseases are diseases transmitted by pathogens such as bacteria, viruses or fungi. Depending on which organs and body parts they affect, they can cause very different symptoms. In Covid-19, we are dealing with a problematic initial situation because not every infected person has apparent symptoms at all. Moreover, the virus can also be transmitted from vaccinated individuals to the next host without any problems. That shows the high relevance of testing, despite increasing vaccination rates. On the one hand, the biotech sector is concerned with diagnostic procedures and, on the other hand, with suitable vaccinations to best prepare our immune system for the fight. In the current pandemic, the coming winter will also indicate the overall effectiveness of vaccines.

The final realization comes late, and at the same time, it is a bit sad what has to happen before lip service turns into new laws. But the pace is now clear: decarbonization and new climate targets will determine global economic activity, and those who pollute the atmosphere will have to accept high payments in the future. In other words, sustainable business is all the more worthwhile because the "cleaners" will be credited for what others pay more. In this way, incentives are created for sustainable business models.

Linde, dynaCERT, Nikola - Profiting from change
With the amended Climate Protection Act, the targets for lower CO² emissions have been raised once again by the German government. Germany is to achieve greenhouse gas neutrality by 2045, and even negative emissions are targeted after 2050. To achieve this, an emergency program worth EUR 8 billion has been launched. The program aims to accelerate the decarbonization of the economy, climate-friendly mobility, and green hydrogen production, among other things. Benefit from the energy transition!

Royal Dutch, Saturn Oil & Gas, BP: Finding the right oil pearl!
The global economy is slowly regaining momentum, although there is still a risk from the Corona pandemic. The Association of Petroleum Exporting Countries and its partner countries (OPEC+) have agreed to significantly increase oil production as the global economy recovers. Starting in August, the oil alliance will increase its daily output by 400,000 barrels each month until further notice. If market conditions permit, the current production cut will expire in September 2022. As prices have so far remained well above USD 70, oil is obviously in demand. So the industry seems to be running at full speed again. Where are the opportunities for investors?

The Very Good Food Company, Amazon, Anheuser-Busch Inbev - Change in shopping behavior due to the pandemic
The Corona Crisis has changed the shopping behavior of people worldwide. On the one hand, there is a trend towards more online shopping; on the other hand, people are spending more money on higher-quality food, which in most cases is still bought locally. In Germany, this can be seen very clearly in a study by the Gfk market research institute. Discounters in Germany saw a 1.4% drop in sales in the first half of 2021, while supermarkets showed a 6.3% increase. Due to the pandemic, practically all special expenses such as restaurant visits, vacations, etc., fell away, and the money saved is invested in higher-quality products in the supermarket, among other things.

Barrick Gold, Theta Gold Mines, Rio Tinto - Gold picks up again
After the FED meeting, the gold price was able to gain significantly. Both the lower quoted bond yields and the weakening USD helped the gold price jump. The FED held out the prospect of reducing bond purchases but did not give a fixed date. Global gold demand has brightened significantly compared to previous quarters. Only jewelry demand is well below pre-Corona levels. On the other hand, Central banks have bought three times more gold than usual in the quarter, namely 200 tons. Gold could now soar to new highs.

Aixtron, Defense Metals, Nordex - Strong growth
The global economic recovery and rising investment in more climate-friendly energy infrastructure are driving higher commodity prices amid supply chain disruptions. Shortages of industrial metals, which are urgently needed for climate change, are likely to materialize further in the coming years. The swelling trade conflict between the USA and China will exacerbate this significantly. There is a threat of massive bottlenecks in production and sharply rising prices for the respective materials.

Facebook, NSJ Gold Corp, PayPal - Disappointment despite record figures?
Many market exaggerations in the past can be traced back to expected paradigm shifts, which in the end rarely or never materialized. Growth expectations shot into the stratosphere during the dot-com period in anticipation of a completely new age thanks to the Internet and mobile communications. However, the estimates of the impact of the Internet at that time were still complete fantasy. Today, however, the dot-com business models dominate the online world, and the relevance of most platforms can neither be explained away nor is their existence threatened. On the contrary, the so-called FAANG shares have a stock market value of USD 8.5 trillion. We do the math again...

Newmont, White Metal Resources, Volkswagen: This is where the future is traded
New, "green" trends are turning the raw materials market upside down. The boom in electric mobility means that we need more copper. Other industrial metals are also in demand. Precious metals, such as silver, are moving into focus because of the growing demand for solar and photovoltaic systems. At the same time, central banks around the globe remain relaxed despite rising inflation - this could be water on the mills of gold. We present three stocks and evaluate their opportunities.

First Majestic Silver, Kodiak Copper, Orocobre - Metals for e-mobility offer great growth potential
Tesla, NIO and Polestar, the pioneers of e-mobility. But the global climate crisis and the realization that it can only be combated with the help of a consistent reduction in greenhouse gases has also led traditional car manufacturers to realize that alternative drive concepts are necessary, not least as a result of legal requirements. Electromobility has currently established itself as the most promising option. Manufacturers are now hastily trying to steer their product development in this direction and are making announcements about the end of the internal combustion engine: Jaguar wants to phase out the engine by 2025. Fiat, Volvo and Ford have announced the end of the engine by 2030. VW has set the period between 2033 and 2035 as its target, at least for Europe, and Audi wants to phase out entirely by then. Mercedes also has a similar date in mind. However, all e-cars have one thing in common: they are very hungry for raw materials. An e-car requires about four times as much copper as a combustion engine. Consumption of gold and silver (onboard electronics) and lithium (batteries) will also increase significantly.

Alibaba, Memiontec, MorphoSys - Now the rally after the sell-off!
The regulator's pressure is getting bigger and bigger. China has tightened the thumbscrews on technology giants and especially their online education companies - triggering a stock market quake on its own stock market. In some cases, well-known tech stocks lost double digits, even though the affected areas only affect fractions of annual sales. Government regulation of the USD 100 billion-plus education market is likely to weaken confidence in China's stock markets for the long term. And the fact that China's trade relations with the US have also reached a low point does not make things any better. Are there still opportunities?

JinkoSolar, Carnavale Resources, BASF - Beware of shortages!
The change from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources due to climate change means that raw materials such as copper, lithium and nickel are increasingly in demand. The increasing demand due to new economic sectors such as wind power, electromobility or photovoltaics is offset by an extremely scarce supply. The result is sharply rising prices and an expected shortage in the coming years. In addition, the trade conflict with China is visibly worsening the shortage. The primary beneficiaries of this dilemma are commodity producers who can at least partially cover the supply deficit outside the Middle Kingdom.

The Chinese government is demonstrating with all its might who has the last word. The regulation of industries and business models, which, as recently seen in the Chinese education sector, destroys the existence of companies and has weighed heavily on Chinese stocks in recent days. If the situation continues to escalate, it could easily negatively color the world's stock markets' mood. That is when it is worth looking at precious metals stocks, as they usually benefit disproportionately from rising commodity prices in times of crisis. Who will come out on top?

Since February, however, Chinese shares have lost around EUR 1 trillion in market value. The market is speculating about US capital controls, which could hit China in particular. The restructuring of China's education system, which many private providers are suffering from, is unsettling. We explain why long-term investors need not fear.

The fear of rapidly rising interest rates was taken away from investors at the past meetings of the central banks. In addition to the ECB's change in monetary policy strategy, where the inflation target of "below or close to 2%" was set aside, the Federal Reserve is blithely continuing its money printing. Despite a 5.4% increase in prices in June, US monetary watchdogs continue to focus on a growing economy and a robust labor market and continue to hold off on a monetary policy response. These hesitant measures put financial stability at risk - the best conditions for investment in precious metals.

If you compare it with the US stock markets, the stock market in Hong Kong is already almost in free fall. While Europe and the US keep climbing to new highs, the HangSeng has lost a full 20% since February. Is the great Asian rally now over? The reason for the panic on the markets is the ever stronger intervention of the Chinese regulators. These regulators do not want to tolerate the flourishing business of large domestic corporations. More or less unfounded and drastic measures to restrict the tutoring industry have also unsettled investors. We calculate whether the current prices may be considered entry prices.

BP, Saturn Oil + Gas, Gazprom - Oil companies offer great opportunities
The oil price came under pressure in mid-July following an OPEC meeting. Starting in August, production will be increased by 400,000 barrels per day. This arrangement is to apply initially until September 2022. From May 2022, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Iraq, Saudi Arabia and Russia all want to increase their production capacities, which would mean additional production of around 1.6 million barrels per day. The price of crude oil subsequently slumped by around USD 10 to USD 65. However, the downward trend was already broken on July 20, and the price has since climbed back up to USD 72. Today we highlight three companies that produce oil.

The further development of electromobility and the reinvention of the car as a rolling computer with new functionalities are a central future topic of the automotive and supplier industry. The innovative power here no longer requires long development cycles; often, even a software update is enough to anchor new features. Moreover, by linking the charging infrastructure with the energy networks, electromobility can become the key to the energy transition and climate-friendly mobility. We look at three representatives of the e-industry.

First Majestic Silver, Silver Viper, Fortuna Silver Mines - Is silver picking up again?
Inflation in the US climbed again in June, reaching 5.4%, the highest level since 2008. With the expansion of the money supply in the US, it is no wonder. The money supply also increased significantly in Europe. In some cases by EUR 50 billion in one week. Nevertheless, the inflation rate in Germany fell slightly to 2.3%. An end to money printing is not in sight. In contrast to gold, silver is a sought-after raw material in the industry. The price increase in precious metals has stopped since June, and there has been consolidation. It is only a matter of time when the price of silver will pick up again as inflation forces people to invest their money in assets. So today, we take a look at three silver stocks.

Commodity companies are currently sitting in the front row. But not all of them can profit! Only if a company has invested in recent years can it now deliver. Mining operations worldwide are currently working at the limits of their capacity, and supplying customers is also causing increasing problems. That is because supply chains have been badly hit by a lack of transport capacity, skyrocketing freight rates and pandemic-related outages.

Despite recent setbacks in commodity prices and share prices, most experts believe that the current commodity bull market will continue for some time. The drivers are likely to be the global economic stimulus programs to overcome the consequences of the Corona Crisis, the climate crisis and the associated need for an energy turnaround, as well as the Chinese economy's continuing hunger for raw materials. The Chinese recently announced their intention to liquidate raw material reserves to stop the market price rally, putting a damper on some raw material prices. Still, many analysts believe this is more likely to be a short-term flash in the pan, given the overall situation.

On the other hand, the metal has become scarce. Whereas 60 profitable copper projects were launched in 2008, only 36 were established in 2020, and this with declining mining values. In 2015 0.65% copper per ton was still being mined; this value will fall to 0.55% by 2025. Existing large copper mines will also need billions in the coming years to maintain their production levels. These additional costs will be passed on to consumers. Today we highlight three companies that either produce or need copper.

If current trends in Germany remain valid, the share of electric vehicles in new sales will shake the 25% mark in the next 5 years. In a recent forecast, the Center of Automotive Management (CAM) predicts new car sales of around 480,000 battery-electric cars and plug-in hybrids this year, representing a good 15% share of new registrations of an estimated 3.3 million passenger cars. The assumption is that battery and plug-in hybrid vehicles will each account for around 50%. By 2025, according to the forecast, the e-vehicle share will rise to 27% of new sales, of which about 65% are expected to be pure electric vehicles. The scenario for the battery industry is thus set.

Raw materials and energy are central prerequisites for our life as we know it not to stand still. Often it is only when there are supply bottlenecks and significant price jumps that we become aware of the importance of what is suddenly no longer readily available. Due to their fundamental importance, commodities and energy are therefore forward-looking investment themes. We present three exciting companies. Who will win the race?

Steinhoff, Silver Viper, Nordex - To all the savers: Save your money!
Consumer prices in the USA rose to a whopping 5.4% in June. That is the highest increase since 2008. The Federal Reserve is challenged but continues to keep its feet still and continues with the ultra-loose monetary policy since, in their opinion, it is only a temporary loss of purchasing power of the US dollar. The European Central Bank is now following suit with its change in strategy, opening the door for further demonetization. Protect your assets and invest in precious metals for the long term.

NIO, EuroSports Global, Porsche: You have never thought of e-mobility like this before
Tomorrow's mobility is electric. The promises of electromobility are great. Clean vehicles, gliding along the roads with almost no noise and possibly even driving autonomously. But there is also another side to electromobility. Companies such as Porsche and EuroSports Global want to electrify driving pleasure. Tesla's chic Roadster shows that there is a market for this.

Plug Power, Kodiak Copper, NIO - The shortage as an opportunity
Commodity markets are always subject to the forces of supply and demand. The energy transition and the achievement of climate targets pose new challenges for society. With the expansion of electromobility and renewable energies such as wind and hydropower, demand for some mineral raw materials will increase sharply. This is offset by an extremely tight supply and trade conflict with the leading producer China. There is a threat of further rising prices and, to be seen with the current chip shortage, even production losses.

BYD, EuroSports Global, VW - Electric mobility booming
Automakers enjoyed their best first quarter in 10 years. One reason for this is the growing number of registered electric cars. If you compare the first quarter of 2020 in Germany with 2021, you can see an increase of 173% in the registration of e-cars, and there is no end in sight. However, more e-cars are not only being sold in Germany; but sales are also increasing worldwide. According to Handelsblatt, if the boom continues, there will be a shortage of millions of battery cells for production. The current industry leader, Tesla, still leads the ranking with the most e-cars delivered by brand, but the competition is catching up. Therefore, we take a look at three companies from the e-mobility segment.

Microsoft, Daimler, Mineworx Technologies - Market leaders on the rise!
The claim to market leadership can be made by the Company that can demonstrate the largest market share in comparison with the other market participants. The measure of market share is based either on market volume or market sales in units. Some typical attributions are the market leader in Germany, the European market leader or the world market leader in a relevant product sales market. Of course, market leadership is not indisputable, especially from a subjective point of view. A broader focus is needed to determine who sets the tone.

The world is in a state of flux. Due to the change from fossil fuels to renewable energies, everyone is talking about the shortage of raw materials such as lithium, nickel, or copper. However, the fact that there could be a water shortage is not yet ingrained in the population's consciousness. With the growing population, urbanization and the depletion of existing sources, water will become a precious commodity in the coming decades. New types of water treatment systems offer great potential.

Barrick Gold, Triumph Gold, Standard Lithium: Get in relaxed with stragglers
Inflation is here - and it is not going away: Inflation rose by 5.4% in June within the USA compared to the same period last year. That is more than even pessimistic experts had expected in the run-up to the figures. Inflation is also picking up speed; compared with the previous month, inflation rose by 0.9%. The answer to this development may be gold. Shortly after the figures were published, the precious metal surged. We highlight two gold stocks and use the example of another currently very popular commodity stock to show why the time is favorable for gold now.

The most efficient ways to generate energy are being discussed almost daily. With nearly 8 billion people on the planet, we need to put energy-intensive mobility on a viable and sustainable footing. The shift to post-industrial economies and rapid changes in information technologies, for example, have greatly simplified the coordination of work. In terms of jobs, there is potential for greater flexibility and dispersion, according to Eurostat. The relationship between home and workplace is being redefined. Mobility and energy concepts that adapt to the new forms of work and production are therefore in demand.

Whether gallium, chromium or rare earths - many metals are indispensable for modern technology. Where supply bottlenecks or shortages threaten, researchers have now determined the criticality of 62 elements in the most comprehensive analysis to date. As it shows, the supply risk is particularly high for the metals needed for the highly specialized tasks in high-tech devices.

Newmont, Troilus Gold, Steinhoff: How much substance is needed?
Rising prices, ever higher national debts - many people are shifting parts of their savings into gold because of this. At first glance, that sounds plausible. Gold has retained its value over thousands of years and has outlasted states and monetary systems. But investors should not just assume the worst. While physical gold paired with silver is a good alternative in the biggest crisis, bars and coins show weakness when things don't end up quite so bad. If only a little inflation threatens and states and governments continue to muddle through in cooperation with central banks, physical holdings are not the best idea. It is here where shares in gold companies can score points. We explain how this works with two examples. Finally, we reject blunt gambling.

Enapter, NEL, Plug Power, FuelCell - Hydrogen under cross-examination!
The sharp rise in prices for heating energy and fuels keeps Germany's inflation rate at a high level. With an increase of 2.3% compared to the same month last year, inflation slowed slightly in June, but it had risen in each of the previous five months, reaching 2.5% in May, the highest level in almost 10 years. The efficient production of hydrogen and its industrial utilization would make our energy supply affordable and environmentally sustainable in the long term. Unfortunately, current technologies are still costly and not suitable for mass production. However, hydrogen remains a hot topic on the stock market. We take a look at the main actors in the H2 thriller.

Cardiol Therapeutics, CureVac, Bayer - Where is the journey heading?
One might think that the pharmaceutical industry is the big winner of the Corona Crisis. However, according to a study by EY, this is not the case. Sales did increase by an average of 4.4% at the largest pharma companies, a much better result than in many other industries, but compared to 2019, growth actually fell by 8.4%. That is due to the postponement of medical treatments due to the Corona Crisis. The industry benefits from the ever-increasing number of elderly people worldwide and, at the same time, the development of new drugs. As a result, sales and profits have increased even during the crisis. We, therefore, highlight three companies from the pharma sector.

An end to the chip shortage is not yet in sight. Meanwhile, the next crisis due to the lack of raw materials is already just around the corner. Due to the rapid growth in electromobility, the high demand for lithium-ion batteries means that the next failures are pre-programmed.

The first half of the 2021 stock market year is over, and the stock market indices continue to march from high to high. While some market participants were hoping for a stronger correction after the Corona rally, they have been disappointed so far. The FED has now laid the foundation for further rising prices. It sees the rising inflation, which is currently at 5% in the USA, as temporary. In favor of growth, interest rates will remain at historic lows for the time being. In addition, the bond-buying program of the monetary guardians continues unabated - a feast for the stock markets.

Public debt in Germany has exceeded the EUR 2.2 trillion mark for the first time, the Federal Statistical Office announced a few weeks ago. Per capita, the debt thus stands at EUR 26,532. Of course, such figures also unsettle investors. If the public sector is so indebted, this could also impact future monetary policy - after all, rising interest rates would significantly increase the cost of refinancing. That is an argument for the ultra-loose monetary policy to continue. That includes all the negative consequences, such as rising prices for tangible assets and products for daily use.

Aspermont, ProSiebenSat.1 Media, CLIQ Digital - profit from digitalization of media companies
In Germany, according to a McKinsey study, just 10% of digital potential is being exploited. Anyone who thinks that it is developing sluggishly in Germany is wrong. According to the study, even if the US leads the way with big tech companies at 18%, the potential is far from being exhausted. Digitization has become enormously important for media companies, particularly as the young generation consumes up to 90% of its content via smartphones. 90% of this content comes from social media. As a traditional media company with print or TV content, it is increasingly difficult to reach the coveted target group. The only way is to dovetail traditional content with digital media. Today we focus on three media companies and how they are dealing with this challenge.

If you believe the media, fossil fuels have no long-term future. The replacement by renewable energies such as wind and water power or photovoltaics seems to be a done deal. Whether the "green turnaround," as planned by politicians, will occur is still written in the stars.

K+S, Theta Gold Mines, Varta - Explosion in construction materials and raw materials!
The price rally in essential commodities continues. An acute shortage of building materials has caused some sharp price increases on construction sites. As reported by the Federal Statistical Office, in May 2021, solid structural timber increased in price by 83.3% year-on-year, roof battens by 45.7% and structural timber by 38.4%. The increased prices of wood and steel and industrial metal are driving up construction costs: reinforcing steel in bars was 44.3% more expensive in May 2021, and reinforcing steel mesh cost 30.4% more than a year ago. The main reasons for the rising lumber and steel prices are likely to be rising demand at home and abroad during the Corona pandemic and problems in the supply of raw materials. By comparison, the producer price index of industrial products rose 7.2% over the same period - the most significant monthly increase in 25 years. Who are the beneficiaries of the shortage rally?

A few days ago, the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and several cooperation partners broke off their negotiations on future production volumes without any results. The fact that no new meeting date has been set, as reported by several news agencies, raises eyebrows. At first, it seemed that an expansion of the oil supply was now off the table and that nothing would stand in the way of a further increase in the oil price in the short term.

Either the share has already run hot and the key figures no longer justify an investment, or the shares are struggling with some kind of crisis. In the end, these crises also bring opportunities, but you have to be well informed and patient. The low of a consolidation is seldom caught, but one or the other price trend can be predicted based on chart technology. We have taken a look at three companies today that are fraught with a certain amount of uncertainty but offer opportunities.

Nel ASA, Royal Helium, Siemens Energy - In the fast lane
Hydrogen can power electric motors, store energy and heat homes with the help of fuel cells. Because of these properties, the most common chemical element in the universe plays a vital role in the energy transition and CO2 neutrality. Shares in hydrogen companies were the stars of the stock market sky last year, alongside electric carmakers. Then came a sharp correction. Currently, most companies have finished their bottoming phase and are turning north again. Do not miss the second chance!

BYD, Kodiak Copper, Varta: E-car investments - here is how investors reduce risks
Copper is the metal of the past fifteen months. Why? Quotations stabilized early on after the Corona Crash. At first, only industry insiders took notice of this relative strength. But it was the starting signal for a copper rally, unlike anything the industrial metal has seen in a long time. From the low in 2020 to the high in 2021, copper has climbed by almost 140%. Which trends are responsible for this, and how investors can invest.

Deutsche Bank, Heidelberger Druck, Saturn Oil + Gas - These are the 200% opportunities!
The second half of the year has begun. We can still see that the ongoing bull market is reaching certain levels of maturity. However, liquidity-driven investment pressure is felt daily via central banks, and the invisible hand of market control has also been sighted a few times. Watch out for days starting weakly; this is often the case, especially in the DAX. No sooner is it 14:30, any weakness is leveled out, and the previously strong precious metals experience the next blow to their prices. In this way, almost daily pressure is brought to the skeptical public; short positions must be covered again, expensively. The next day the same game again, so one shimmies in the S&P 500 from record to record. We focus on current turnaround situations that should remain independent of general market developments.

Netflix, wallstreet:online, Commerzbank: Where shareholders get their money's worth
'Something to do with media' - years ago, this was the career goal of many graduates. But the reality in the media industry at the time was anything but dreamlike: The Neuer Markt went belly-up, and the media industry also had to cut back. Added to this was digitization, which turned many traditional business models upside down. In the meantime, however, the industry has consolidated - and is setting out for new shores.

Gold has recently gone under the wheels, but that does not necessarily mean anything. The experts at Commerzbank are still sticking to their gold price forecast of USD 2,000 by the end of the year. Given the recent correction, the potential for price gains is therefore even greater. We outline how investors can invest based on two companies from the gold sector. We then distinguish speculative gold investments from gambler stocks.

Freenet, Almonty Industries, Lufthansa - Setbacks offer entry opportunities
The stock markets have been on the rise for a long time, undoubtedly due to the loose monetary policy and the resulting inflation. Nevertheless, there is no hype as before the bursting of the dot-com bubble. Back then, people subscribed to Infineon and did not even know what the Company was doing. Despite Corona, the markets are higher than before the crisis, and the good news continues. In July, US President Biden is expected to launch his USD 1.2 trillion infrastructure package. Originally, more was planned. But this money will ultimately increase the corporate profits of the subsidized industries. The only important thing for investors is not to buy stocks at the high but to wait for consolidations to get in. That way, one increases the profit potential, and the stop loss is much smaller. Today we look at three companies that have recently suffered a setback.

Nordex, Triumph Gold, Infineon - Just keep calm
"First, things turn out differently, and second, things turn out differently than you expect." This saying by German poet and caricaturist Wilhelm Busch applies more than ever to the capital markets right now. Why is the Bitcoin falling, why is TUI not rising despite the travel restrictions easing, and why is the gold price not taking advantage of the fundamentally good conditions to attack the high of August last year? The answer is again found in a quote from the Chinese philosopher Confucius: "There is strength in calm."

What momentum! In just 6 weeks, hydrogen stocks have gained up to 60% again. Of course, those who missed the first wave are happy. Maybe it will work out now with the second one. The framework parameters are suitable because both the EU and Joe Biden have agreed on more hydrogen within the climate targets. Germany's significant contribution to climate protection can create applications in these sectors that operate with low emissions using hydrogen. An important focus in developing a German hydrogen economy and strategy should therefore be the commercialization of applications.

Both cryptocurrencies and precious metals corrected sharply in recent weeks. While the negative tweets of Elon Musk and the trading bans and stricter regulations in China were cited as reasons for Bitcoin, Etherum & Co, it is the fears of possible early interest rate hikes for gold and silver. In the short term, there should still be some correction potential, also from a chart perspective. In the long term, the lights are green for a rising gold and silver price.

The advance of e-mobility associated with the energy transition and the need to decarbonize the economy does not stop at the commercial vehicle segment. However, the battery technology currently gaining acceptance in this sector has decisive disadvantages: it is expensive, has a heavy weight, and charging is time-consuming. For this reason, alternatives are feverishly being sought. Can hydrogen fill this gap? In contrast to suppliers like BYD, who focus primarily on battery mobility, the following companies concentrate fully on hydrogen technology. Who is in the running?

Good health is the most valuable commodity. Especially those who have everything materially want nothing more than to remain healthy in the case of illness. People are also becoming more circumspect when it comes to preventive checkups. A few years ago, the cliché prevailed that men, in particular, gave doctors a wide berth. Today, prevention and regular checkups are considered a must. In this context, imaging techniques are becoming increasingly important: Whether an intervertebral disc or cardiovascular problem - modern medical technology equipment allows doctors to closely monitor and make the appropriate diagnoses.

The bull market is maturing a bit more every day. It is no longer young - because it has been running steadily since 2015. Admittedly, it stuttered a bit in March 2020, but the subsequent recovery was all the more violent. There are long-term fundamental trends, so-called megatrends, such as digitalization or e-mobility. At present, we can assume that the mining industry will also boom again in contrast to the crypto world. That is because the medium-term parameters here match the current economic trends. Here is a small selection of well-positioned stocks.

TUI, Lufthansa, Silver Viper - The doubling opportunities for 2022!
Things are about to get really exciting once again. The travel season is in full swing, hotel occupancy rates are rising, and airlines are enjoying high occupancy rates. But how long will the catch-up effects last? The constraints are still burdensome. Travelers who have previously stayed in high-incidence or virus variant areas must carry a negative test certificate with them when they enter the country and, if a carrier is used, present the proof for the purpose of transport. That does not make travel so easygoing. The first countries are already appearing on the Robert Koch Institute's blacklist again: Portugal and Great Britain. In the autumn, when the temperatures tumble again, this can become a problem.

Gazprom, Theta Gold Mines, Yamana Gold: Which commodities are the best?
Commodity prices have always been considered an indicator of fundamental changes in the global economy. It is not for nothing that the price of copper is known as "Dr. Copper" because of its role as an economic indicator. Oil and gold also have a signaling effect: when the energy commodity rises, it stands for an intact global economy and incipient inflationary tendencies. Gold is also an inflationary metal in a certain sense. Added to this is the property as crisis insurance. But which commodities are best suited for investment? We run through three scenarios using companies as examples.

SAP, Barsele Minerals, BioNTech - Shares have no alternative
The USA is expecting growth of 7% this year and Germany is expected to grow by 3.7%. This growth is above the currently expected inflation. As an investor, you should not be afraid of 2023, even if the FED wants to raise interest rates twice by then. One can confidently assume that interest rates will rise marginally from this historically low level, and that, in turn, is a sign of economies with growth prospects. In addition, the boom in equities could last much longer due to major changes such as e-mobility, climate neutrality and the like. In times of significant changes such as industrialization, there were long-lasting bull markets in equities. Since bonds are still hardly yielding any returns, equities remain highly attractive.

JinkoSolar, Kodiak Copper, BASF - Caution: This market will explode!
Due to the energy transition, the raw materials sector is undergoing a historic upheaval. Due to a CO2 reduction in the economy and transport, coal, gas and crude oil will lose importance in the future. The demand for metals such as copper will increase exorbitantly in order to expand the capacities for the generation and storage of renewable energies. Copper is and will remain irreplaceable in the electrification of the global economy due to its chemical properties. In 2020, the supply deficit rose to 560,000 metric tons, the highest in a decade. And transportation electrification is just getting started.

BP, NewPeak Metals, Nordex: Three shares with energy
The energy turnaround offers excellent opportunities - that is what you read in many media reports. Indeed, regenerative energy has a great appeal - it does not produce any CO2 emissions. But this is not entirely true. The production of solar panels and wind turbines requires raw materials. Only when these are also produced in a climate-neutral way are regenerative energy sources genuinely sustainable. At the same time, oil and gas still play a significant role in the energy mix. We outline three companies involved in this complex of topics and also examine investment opportunities.

IPO underpricing measures the difference between the price subscribers have to pay for new issues, i.e. the issue price and the prices then traded on the stock exchange. This phenomenon was first addressed in studies some 50 years ago. In sum, IPO underpricing exists worldwide. However, depending on the market phase, country and market capitalization size, this effect can look very different. It is, therefore, wrong to conclude that every IPO is a success.

Or are there still revolutionary developments that go beyond the battery as a universal remedy? Germany continues to experience an energy shortage because we buy cheap nuclear power from abroad. That is how things can go when a messed-up energy policy is associated with climate protection goals. No matter how things go, the world needs copper for modern technologies, and this raw material is in short supply.

Electromobility is considered the central building block of a sustainable and climate-friendly transportation system based on renewable energies. There are currently around 70 electric vehicle models from German manufacturers on the market. In 2020, the stock of passenger cars with electric drives in Germany comprised only 137,000 vehicles, according to the Federal Motor Transport Authority. The federal government wants to significantly boost the market with purchase incentives by the end of 2025, extensive investments in expanding the charging infrastructure and tax incentives. However, if you look at the global situation, it quickly becomes evident that Asia dominates the action. We introduce you to three stocks that offer great opportunities. Who has the best cards?

The explosion in commodity prices is foreseeable. Due to the fatal misjudgment of the governments on how the COVID pandemic will develop, the economies are currently in a supply shock. The months-long lockdowns have broken off some supply chains, and the breakdown in the Suez Canal has further aggravated the situation. Ever Given's wrecked ship is still stuck in the Egyptian Bitter Lake with 20,000 containers on board. Whether in cell phones, electric vehicles, non-fossil power generation and storage, or modern server farms - industrial metals are needed everywhere. For special applications, we even need rare earths, which makes it highly political.

What is so special about July 1? On that day, the Chinese Communist Party will celebrate its 100th anniversary. It is common knowledge that the Chinese government plays by its rules. If someone violates these rules, appropriate measures are taken. The ever-increasing price of raw materials is not at all to the taste of the Chinese, who are known to have a great need for raw materials. Without further ado, the Chinese announced that they would soon release strategic state reserves of various metals, which initially led to the consolidation of some commodities. Chinese companies are also currently very cautious, as no one wants to disrupt the July 1 celebration. After the celebration, the reins could loosen a bit.

This seals the slow farewell to combustion engines. But now, new problems are emerging concerning electromobility. In addition to the scarcity of the required raw materials, the issue of recycling the batteries and recovering the raw materials is coming up. Here, a market worth billions opens up with huge potential for the respective companies.

NEL, Plug Power, Royal Helium - Things could get explosive here!
The energy turnaround in Europe is tied to several factors. On the one hand, it is about reducing emissions, especially of harmful climate gases. On the other hand, companies want to leave a green footprint because it is good for the public reputation and opens other doors of refinancing on the investor level. Concerning ESG criteria, we certainly want to attribute ethical, ecological reasons to most companies. Nevertheless, the road to greater climate neutrality is still rocky and cost-intensive for most. Another prerequisite is that substitute materials and environmentally friendly precursors are equally subject to scarcity since supply chains have been broken. Therefore, the pivotal point for climate-oriented business is the factual competence of the "how," then the necessary means, and finally, the material availability.

Commodities are in demand, as seen from the Bloomberg Commodity Index, which reached a multi-year high on June 11. Among other things, this is due to China's enormous hunger for raw materials and the infrastructure program of the USA. Inflation fears also drive more investors to commodities, as there is no end in sight to the loose monetary policy. In addition, there is a rethinking of climate protection, giving rise to hypes such as hydrogen or e-mobility. These new technologies require raw materials such as copper or nickel, and so commodity prices are picking up significantly in almost all sectors. That's why we are taking a look at three exciting commodity companies today.

The capital markets are going in circles! A new round every day. Usually weak in the morning and up again in the evening as Wall Street rises. A never-ending game at absolute top levels. The slogan of the investment banks is "buy on any dips" because they naturally want to continue their business with the lucrative new issues. The pressure to refinance becomes stronger in an inflationary environment for companies because they first have to lay out preliminary products that have become expensive. Investors are therefore demanding more risk premium today than they were a few months ago. Once large stocks have taken off, investors are also turning their attention to smaller stocks. Penny stocks, in particular, are being moved back and forth with the help of social media slogans.

Everyone is talking about electromobility and hydrogen - but what does it look like in reality? There are still many combustion engines in good condition on the roads. Scrapping them cannot be sustainable. The global energy mix also shows that renewable energies are a welcome trend but by no means the rule: As reported by the International Energy Agency, oil accounted for 31.5% of primary energy supply in 2018. It is followed by coal at 26.8%, and gas at 22.8%. Fossil energy sources thus had a share of more than 80% in 2018. These energy sources will still be needed in the coming years.

Reason: The container ship "Ever Given" in the Suez Canal, shipwrecked, is still fully loaded at the Egyptian quay walls and is waiting to continue its journey. However, the insurance issues have not yet been resolved because the accident caused considerable damage to the canal structure. The riparian states admittedly do not want to pay for the restoration.

The FED has announced that it does not intend to raise interest rates before 2023, despite inflation significantly higher than Germany. The European Central Bank has not yet announced anything about raising interest rates. They are trying to keep the economy going, and Mr. Draghi had tried to fan inflation for a long time but failed at the time. The ECB would undoubtedly like to see inflation of 2-3% over a more extended period, and that makes investing in stocks or other tangible assets still attractive.

Varta, BYD, NIO, Tesla, Almonty Industries - Battery becomes next billion-dollar topic!
The extent to which reality sometimes diverges from stock market trends is especially noticeable in hotly traded stocks. Early last week, it was the postponement of CureVac's vaccine launch that caused the stock price to lose 50% briefly. Then on Friday, there was the virtual AGM of Varta AG. The mood was very good in the run-up and the share reached a 5-month high of EUR 142. But then there was a correction of over 10% and the price found itself yesterday at EUR 127. The reason: premium manufacturers like Porsche are now going into battery research themselves. This opens up a competitor for Varta among the intended customers - they certainly had not bet on this, but the battery issue is a billion-dollar thing!

Barrick Gold, NSJ Gold, First Majestic Silver- Buy and stay patient
In Gold we trust - is the name of a publication that has been published since 2007 and has become a benchmark for interested gold investors. The authors believe that gold and silver have an excellent chance to climb to higher prices at the end of the current year. For the end of the decade, the experts forecast at least a price of USD 4,800 per ounce of gold. Given such optimistic forecasts, we will look below at three shares that should benefit significantly from this.

Royal Dutch Shell, Sierra Growth, Nel ASA - Stocks with increased profit opportunities
Since the markets have been climbing incessantly, it is not easy to find exciting stocks with potential. Most of the time, the ratios are already much too high, such as the price-earnings ratio (P/E) or the price-sales ratio (P/S). It is crucial to quickly detect new trends and get in on time before the party is over. In the coming week, an important date is coming up for the large US big tech companies. The House Judiciary Committee will vote on some anti-trust legislation. As a result, tech stocks should be cautious. Today we have picked out three stocks where we think profit opportunities are particularly promising.

Porsche, Gazprom, Teck Resources, GSP Resource - The raw materials rally continues!
There was a minor decline on Friday. Rarely could the DAX in recent weeks get caught up in a correction. But on triple witching, it fell from the morning onwards and lost a full 2% to 15,420 points over the course of the day. The all-time high at 15.808 is now a bit removed, and the sidelines also had to give up a bit. The S&P 500 had its first bad week since the significant May correction. However, the chart technicians are still calm; it was probably just a correction in the uptrend. Commodities were largely spared from the correction, Brent and WTI oil at highs near USD 74 and 71 respectively, and copper still just under USD 10,000.

Deutsche Bank, ThyssenKrupp, White Metal Resources: When opportunities arise from legacy issues
What will the market bring in the second half of the year? Will the takeover merry-go-round spin and blue chips continue to climb in the wake of the booming comeback economy? Or do infrastructure programs and further construction drive the steel sector? The chances are good that the economy is again breathing a breath of fresh air and is on the verge of a long-lasting upswing. Traditionally, this upswing is characterized by setbacks, particularly at the beginning. We outline how investors can invest, taking three stocks as examples.

BYD, QMines, Varta: Investors must now think outside the box
E-cars are back! It is not just on the roads that we see more and more electric cars. Shares related to electromobility have also been at the top of the price list again for a few days. After major car manufacturers had already ventured to move toward electromobility months ago, the air was out for some shares. Now, however, the stocks are starting to jump again. In the slipstream of BYD and Co., other shares could pick up. We present some attractive stocks.

Palantir, Blackrock Silver, Freenet - Decisive weeks
Uncertainties on the capital markets are increasing, and so is the potential for corrections. The reason is once again the concerns about rampant inflation. After last week's meeting of the US Federal Reserve, key interest rates were left at historic lows, but discussions about curbing bond purchases and possible interest rate hikes as early as 2022 continue to grow. If the FED were to call an end to the ultra-loose monetary policy soon, this would be a fatal sign for the markets with far-reaching consequences.

MorphoSys, Biogen, Sierra Growth - What is next?
Pharmaceutical stocks are a bit like that: Giants like Johnson & Johnson or Novartis have an extensive product portfolio and can cushion failures of individual products quite well. It is often a matter of life and death for smaller, specialized companies with every development. Just yesterday, this could be observed in the CureVac share after its Corona vaccine candidate only achieved an efficacy of 47% in the clinical 2b/3 phase. Within a very short time, it disintegrated the stock price. Meanwhile, biotech pioneer Biogen surprised with an unjustified share price rally, which, however, could come to an abrupt end after a new setback. The situation is different for MorphoSys. Its planned acquisition of Constellation Pharmaceuticals initially weighed heavily on the share price, but it holds exciting potential. And the Canadian mining Company Sierra Growth is operating in a completely different environment; however, it has a top opportunity to offer in the current inflationary environment and should not go unmentioned.

Carnival, TUI, Desert Gold - A total upswing or is it all over again?
It is probably one of the strangest travel waves since we could remember. For months we Germans could not leave our own country's borders without great effort; the ski season in 2020/21 fell victim to the COVID pandemic almost completely. Now we experience amazingly low incidences, which probably would have come even without lockdown...but let's take that as a given because some action had to be taken as public proof of action, after all. Now travel is possible again with good conditions for the vaccinated and a bit more cumbersome for recovered, healthy and non-vaccinated. Exciting to observe: How are the travel companies doing now?

CureVac, BioNTech, Novavax, XPhyto Therapeutics - The Covid giants and the sellout!
How quickly the tide can turn in the environment of the Corona pandemic can be seen in the vaccine manufacturers and test providers. BioNTech's share price has been rising steadily since the start of the vaccination campaign in Germany, and minor reports of potential side effects are hardly disturbing. In the case of test provider NanoRepro, the bull market of recent months is turning into a total sell-off, with the share losing over 70%. And then there is the Tübingen-based biotech Company CureVac. Delays in approval and a shock on efficacy send the share down by a whole 50% in one day. We take a closer look at the situation.

Kodiak Copper, Deutsche Telekom, Varta - What is going on in commodities?
The hype around wood lasted until May 25, after which the rally ended and the price consolidated by a whopping 40%. Gold was trading above USD 1,900 last week. In parallel to this article's writing, the price is below USD 1,800. A minus of about 5.5% within five days, and the industrial metal for electrification and copper, dropped by 8%. Currently, all factors speak for a further increase in commodity prices. Real interest rates are still negative, and inflation should also remain high. The Fed could not help calm the markets, although interest rate hikes were not announced until 2023. However, the Fed intends to continue its bond purchases. Consolidation can always occur after strong increases, and so we will see long-term rising commodity prices, especially for precious metals and copper.

Bayer, White Metal Resources, Barrick Gold - Trendsetting news
At Federal Reserve's meeting, runaway inflation was the topic par excellence. With US consumer prices up 5% in May, market participants assumed at least an announcement of a pullback in bond market volume. However, an interest rate hike, which would actually be necessary for price stability, is not considered before 2023, according to FED Chairman Jerome Powell. Thus, through the continued ultra-loose monetary policy, he refers to the attitude that economic growth and a rising stock market are more important than low inflation.

Adler Modemärkte, Steinhoff, Osino Resources: Which penny stocks have substance?
Penny stocks often have something disreputable about them - at least in Germany. As soon as a share is quoted at less than EUR 1 in Germany, it is considered to be at risk of insolvency. The reason for this is that the minimum nominal value of German stock corporations is EUR 1. Abroad, however, things are quite different: In Australia, it is not uncommon for shares to trade even below one cent. For investors who are used to this, it is anything but disreputable. In concrete terms, it all depends on the companies themselves anyway. We profile three companies that are either penny stocks or were, not long ago.

Deutsche Bank, Enapter, LPKF - Profit from the green future!
Last year's boom topic, hydrogen, has suffered its first setbacks on the stock market. Industry leaders such as Nel ASA, Plug Power and Ballard corrected sharply in the first half of the stock market year. The valuations of the companies around the green future industry were too high. Nevertheless, it is becoming increasingly clear that decarbonization and the achievement of climate targets are not possible without green hydrogen. Politicians have recognized the signs and released more than EUR 8 billion in subsidies just last month. Take advantage of the second wave.

The safest option is to invest in producers, but the potential return is much higher with exploration companies due to the higher risk. Which will you choose?

At the same time, the NATO powers seem to underestimate how dependent they are on the Middle Kingdom in terms of the energy transition. By capping access to rare minerals essential for electric vehicles, wind turbines and drones, the Western states are threatened with a bottleneck that will have a major impact on the development of new technologies.

Varta, Apple, BYD, EuroSports Global - The stock market stars of electric mobility
The number of companies focusing on the electric mobility sector has been rising sharply for the past 2 years. Different business models and the majority of the companies are suppliers to larger integrators. Then there are many followers and startups that still want to harvest a piece of the future pie. For many ideas, time is ticking - time to market is the keyword - because the race for ready and in-demand products started about 5 years ago. Those who are just starting out today could be too late to market once the lengthy and costly development and testing phases have been completed. Apple and Google are investing billions to be part of it. We deal with a few of these protagonists.

A tick higher every day, letting off some steam in between, but then closing at all-time highs again. This is the current stock market trend, which presents itself daily. It continues to be the stock market darlings and large standard stocks that move up. The NASDAQ has done a 4-week ride again, as it has done for the third time in a year. A 1000 point correction is followed by a 1500 point rise to a new high. Those who are not there just watch; even harder it hits the shorties, who again were not allowed to experience a bear market.

Silver is not only in demand as a "crisis currency," but also from industry.

This week alone, the federal government released EUR 1 billion in funding for six hydrogen projects in Bavaria.

Barrick Gold, Triumph Gold, Bayer - is a golden summer coming?
An old stock market adage says: Sell in May and go away. In German: Sell your positions; in summer, the market will consolidate. There was a slight correction at the beginning of May, but the DAX has been climbing since then. It is currently trying to reach the 16,000 point mark. The price of gold recently traded above USD 1,900 for the first time again, which can certainly be understood as a sign that investors want to secure their money from inflation. While the US Federal Reserve emphasized that it does not want to take any countermeasures for the time being, the US Treasury Secretary Yellen recently surprised with the statement that higher interest rates would be good for the United States. It remains exciting. There is the possibility of a golden summer on the markets.

NIO, Volkswagen, Toyota, Silkroad Nickel - Now it really starts!
Armin Laschet (CDU), the CDU/CSU candidate for chancellor, does not want to give the internal combustion engine an expiration date, even though he himself drives an electric car. He also warns against focusing solely on the electric vehicle regarding climate protection in the transport sector. "I do not believe that this will be the form of mobility for the next 30 years, even though I drive an electric car myself," the CDU federal chairman told Handelsblatt. "There are ecological implications, for example, in battery production and the extraction of raw materials. We will still see many technological leaps." So in terms of e-mobility, the last word has not yet been spoken. Nevertheless, the industry is gearing up for a politically motivated wave of purchases. For this, it needs raw materials.

The metal prices are going through the roof! After the first shock last week, when the People's Republic of China announced that it wanted to actively "fix" the prices for raw materials in the future, the next hammer followed at the end of the week: The consumer price index (CPI) in the USA set inflation at 5% - the highest level since mid-2008. Nevertheless, the central banks still see no reason to reduce the expansive monetary policy; risking an economic collapse in this fragile situation is too high. Given these settings, there are now two options for commodity investors to protect themselves against rising inflation: Invest directly in commodities or buy stocks in the commodities sector.

Inflation means nothing else than a loss of value of money. So, where is the best place to invest at the moment?

Silver Viper Minerals, Nordex, JinkoSolar - These shares are taking off!
Like gold, silver is a precious metal. Both are characterized by the fact that they do not rust. They have always been used for the production of jewelry and in medicine. However, since silver is much more abundant than gold, its price is many times lower. Currently, the ratio is about 1:70, so it was affordable even for less well-heeled investors, which earned it the nickname of the "poor man's gold." However, silver is also characterized by various physical properties that make it extremely valuable for industrial use today. Due to its excellent conductivity and catalytic properties, it is used in solar and battery production. As a result, the price has literally exploded over the past twelve months. Below are three promising stocks that are directly or indirectly related to the price of silver.

Today, new inflation data is due in the USA. Inflation is estimated at 3.4%. But no matter how it turns out, the development of commodity prices in recent weeks and months is already pointing the way for inflation. While some observers expect that a normalization of supply chains could take some price pressure away, certain commodities are simply in short supply: wood, copper and even gold. In the case of the latter metal, rising investor demand could quickly rattle the market and tip it out of balance in favor of rising gold prices.

The copper shortage continues as demand is continuously increasing. The current slightly weakening copper price should not hide the general state of the market. Resources are scarce, procurement markets are depleted, and demand remains at a high level. Current trends in the economy are further exacerbating this situation. Modern electric vehicles use about three to four times as much copper as a conventional internal combustion vehicle. It should not be forgotten that the construction of the charging infrastructure also requires significant amounts of copper. New mines are not currently in sight, but there is news from Nevada.

Stock market stars of 2020, the shares of companies in the hydrogen, electromobility and fuel cell technology sectors, recovered after heavy losses in the first quarter and are currently on the verge of further price gains. Future prospects for these sectors remain intact. Due to the demand resulting from the energy transition, investors are also focusing on the necessary raw materials. In this context, the shift to a low-carbon economy is only at the beginning of a major upheaval.

NEL, Troilus Gold, K+S: After the hype is before the hype
For some time now, more and more private investors have been flocking to the trading floor. New, low-cost smartphone brokers and innovative technologies have attracted these investors. Hydrogen stocks, in particular, triggered a stock market boom in 2020. But what is next for these new stock market investors when the shares of NEL, Ballard Power and others no longer perform? Where are there still opportunities? We provide answers.

BYD, GSP Resource, Varta - Where do we go from here?
Electromobility is experiencing strong growth rates. The International Copper Association forecasts a considerable increase in demand for copper over the next 10 years, driven mainly by e-vehicles but also by industry and technology. Copper, lithium & Co are making the triumphant advance of electrification possible in the first place. We present you with exciting shares of the megatrend.

TUI, TeamViewer, White Metal Resources - Is the breakout to the upside coming?
Calm is different! Actually, with volatility well below 20, there should be a noticeable calm in the market. However, this is not the case. There is high turnover in individual stocks and sectoral movements as not seen for 20 years. The reason for this is the number of active shareholders and market participants willing to trade since the many lockdowns. No longer under the supervision of the bosses, one or two trading platforms are simply running along at home. This increases the depth of trading and turnover on the stock exchanges - and 95% of all speculators are trading long. The percentage of shareholders is also growing steadily; in 2021, it could approach 10% in Germany. We look at stocks with breakout potential.

The Power of Digital Media - AMC, ProSieben, Tencent, Aspermont
Sell in May and go away...in 2021, it has not yet worked. The weather in June is much warmer and the markets are rushing from one all-time high to the next. The DAX reached a new high yesterday at 15,732. The mood was outstanding, especially when it came to vehicle values. However, the excesses were slightly slowed down at AMC Entertainment. Now that the Company has placed three capital increases, some calm has returned. We look at a few special situations in this advanced bull market.

Deutsche Bank, Commerzbank, Sierra Growth: Of fast money and true values
Prices are rising ever more sharply. Industrialized countries have now surpassed even the emerging markets in terms of inflation. For banks, the current market phase is rewarding: investment banking has become a mainstay and the prospect of higher interest rates also gives hope for the bread-and-butter business. We look at why investors should nevertheless not bet on bank shares and what alternatives there are.

NIO, Almonty Industries, Daimler - The power struggle escalates
The US government bans American investments for 59 companies from China. They are accused of cooperating with the Chinese state apparatus and military. The response from Beijing is not likely to take long. The Middle Kingdom is pulling the strings concerning the globally planned energy revolution. Whether solar plants, wind turbines or electric cars. The switch from fossil fuels to a sustainable energy supply based on renewable energy requires many metals. At the moment, more than 80% of the production of rare metals takes place in China. The currently prevailing chip shortage could be just a precursor.

Gazprom, Desert Gold, Siemens Energy - Everything is getting more expensive!
Inflation is here. In May, prices in Germany rose by 2.5% over the year as a whole, according to initial calculations by the Federal Statistical Office. Driven by reduced capacities and consumers' saved purchasing power, experts expect price increases between 4 and 5% by the end of the year. Such levels last occurred at the end of 1992. Interest rates, which are kept close to zero by central banks, still act as an accelerant. Hedge your portfolio before it is too late.

Commodity prices are rising, Corona is still a major theme and stock gambles, like AMC last week, are still working. As a resourceful investor, you have to do your research and ideally get an information edge over other investors. If you read a lot, you learn a lot and can often profit from it. Today we have picked out three stocks with a lot of potential - one from the commodities sector, another the Corona flagship and a chance on the next AMC.

Everything is finite, every material and every raw material. Here is where the idea of a circular economy comes in. The aim is to develop a regenerative system in which resource use and waste production, emissions, and energy waste are minimized by slowing down, reducing, and closing energy and material cycles. The following three companies are all involved in the circular economy in different ways. Shareholders can also benefit from this.

Bayer, Defence Therapeutics, MorphoSys - A paradigm shift in biotechnology
The search for a vaccine against the Coronavirus brought biotechnology back into the focus of investors last year. Companies such as BioNTech or CureVac were able to multiply in this regard. In 2020, the biotech sector in Germany raised a record sum of EUR 3 billion, and the trend is rising sharply. The fight against incurable diseases and the development of important innovations such as vaccines, cancer therapies, or sustainable products lift the segment into higher realms and offer attractive investment opportunities.

Royal Dutch Shell, BP, Saturn Oil + Gas: Starting signal for the "green" oil megatrend
"This will influence climate legislation around the world," was the headline in the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, referring to the ruling by the District Court in The Hague against the Royal Dutch Shell corporation. The court ordered the corporation to reduce its CO2 emissions by 45% by 2030 compared to 2019. Never before has a court forced a corporation to take such drastic climate protection measures. What does this mean for the sector now?
Despite this development, Saturn Oil & Gas announced on Friday after the end of the trading day the successful placement of the capital increase, which had already been adjusted upwards several times, including the greenshoe, now totaling CAD 32.8 million. The use of the proceeds from the placement is quite interesting.

CureVac, Cardiol Therapeutics, Formycon, NanoRepro - Pharma stocks with potential!
In Germany, around 231,000 people died as a result of cancer in 2019. As reported by the Federal Statistical Office, cancer was the cause of a quarter of all deaths. This proportion has hardly changed within 20 years, even though the number of cancer deaths has increased by around 10% since 1999. The precise number 1 cause of widespread disease in Germany is cardiovascular disease, such as heart failure, coronary heart disease and myocardial infarction. With 18.2 million deaths, they represented the most common cause of death worldwide in 2019. In Europe, more than 4 million people die each year due to such a disease, 1.4 million of whom are younger than 75. So research continues to be in demand. We look at interesting representatives of the industry.

Desert Gold, Endeavour Mining, Newmont - Gold is rallying as expected
I pointed out the double bottom in gold in one of my earlier articles, and since then, the price has risen over USD 200. Interestingly, the buy-side consists mainly of young investors up to 25 years old. According to research from several online brokers, they own 39% of gold - 3 years ago, it was only 26%. This percentage is three times higher than in the overall population. Inflows into physically deposited gold ETFs amounted to nearly 34 tons. Driven by inflation fears and political tensions, gold is enjoying a renewed revival. We take a look at three gold stocks today.

The stock market madness goes into the next round. If it was GameStop last time, it is now AMC Entertainment. Plus 600% in 2 weeks and the day before yesterday a smooth doubler in one day. The share started at 30 and ran in the high to USD 70. Then yesterday came the issue of 11 million shares to increase liquidity supposedly. Good marketing stunt! The Company is, of course, taking advantage of the high share price to place USD 500 million. That is a sum the Company could not have raised at all six months ago. Yesterday, the Company warned that its share price was far too high.

Nordex, Deutsche Rohstoff AG, Nikola - Enormous scope for further growth
The replacement of fossil fuels by renewable energies is a done deal. The targets for a climate-neutral world are being raised by politicians almost every week. Nevertheless, according to experts, the world will not get by without oil and gas as the primary source of energy in the future. Oil prices continue to climb, trading at around 30% above pre-Corona levels. At the same time, the economic recovery is only just getting underway. Due to global demand, this trend is likely to continue for some time, with significant upside potential for producers.

Troilus Gold, First Majestic Silver, Sibanye Stillwater - This will move the prices!
The reasons to invest in precious metals are manifold: as protection against inflation, as a crisis currency, or to profit from increasing industrial demand. In addition to investing in gold or silver bars, certificates or funds, active investors are likely to focus on direct investment in stocks that offer good opportunities. The universe is huge, and there is the right opportunity for every risk appetite. Exploration companies searching for raw materials, development companies busy building the mine and ramping up production, or producers, whose success shareholders can ultimately participate in through dividend payouts. Below are three promising stocks that have recently published excellent news.

Sustainability has long been more than just a buzzword. The former core issue of the Greens has now reached all parties. Today, it seems clear that resources should be used intelligently.

When Joe Biden announces economic stimulus programs worth billions, Elon Musk suddenly discovers his heart for the environment after months of hype and thus sends Bitcoin on a downward slide, or the current US Treasury Secretary and former head of the Federal Reserve Janet Yellen suddenly thinks out loud about rising interest rates, investors around the world listen closely.

GameStop, AMC, Bitcoin Group, Triumph Gold - Chaos is the order of the day!
Now the stock market must show how much steam is still in the boiler. Again, the DAX could mark a new ATH the day before yesterday; it was at 15,687 points. Here the air was then somewhat thin, and the afternoon brought a correction to below 15,600 points. The investment community has taken a rest here for the time being. The volatility as a fluctuation indicator even came back strongly in the last few days but then fell back below 20. This indicator shows that the need for hedging is probably dwindling, i.e. the interest of the investment community is instead directed upwards. Some stocks are worth keeping on the radar.

These can now also be found in gold. The precious metal is currently trading at a 5-month high. Due to the potentially escalating inflation, the fundamental conditions for a further increase in the gold price are more than given.

Infineon, Defense Metals, Aixtron - It is getting tight!
Supply bottlenecks in various industries, e.g. wood, metals, semiconductors or chips (see Infineon and Aixtron in this article), are causing prices to skyrocket. Whether only a short-term phenomenon, it remains to be seen. One area that is heading for ever-increasing demand with manageable supply is "rare earths." Particularly for producers or prospective producers or exploration companies, such as Defense Metals, this should pay off in the medium term.

Whenever the stock market marks another high, investors think about which stocks might be "left behind." Sure, there are undervalued stocks, yet the market usually has good reasons why stocks are trading low or even in the penny stock range. Often, these are stocks that have reported very low figures or operate an uncompetitive business model. While DAX stocks were able to climb to new highs again yesterday, some stocks still lag or show interesting special movements. We take a closer look at a few stocks that fluctuated strongly.

The fear is going around. The new enemy of the economy is no longer the pandemic but the consequences due to the easing. In May, growth in Chinese industrial activity reached its highest level for 2021 due to rising demand from domestic and global markets. Commodity prices are skyrocketing due to supply shortages, and supply chains are broken, affecting the economy. Due to the green revolution, the trend of expensive metal prices will continue. The losers will be the end consumers, while the winners will be the producers of the scarce goods.

Sometimes it is a gradual process, but sometimes it is a sudden event like the Corona pandemic. A company gets into trouble and the management has to develop strategies that will nevertheless lead the business into the future.

Adler Modemärkte, Steinhoff, Carnavale Resources: Where gambling pays off and why
Anyone who has money can speculate. If you have no money, you have to speculate. That is how stock market veteran André Kostolany once put it. But only very few people know what a good speculation is. As a rule, private investors are too late when it comes to promising speculations. Only those who recognize good stocks in time and understand the investment stories behind them can score with speculative stocks in the long term. We outline how this works and what investors should look out for, using three stocks as examples.

Royal Dutch Shell, BP, Gazprom, Saturn Oil + Gas - The oil rally is starting now!
Now it is getting really exciting on the oil market. Brent is scratching at the USD 70 mark and WTI is preparing to leave the USD 67 mark behind. At the moment, oil prices are moving at the upper end of their annual range. In addition to a general shortage of raw materials, there is now some inflationary pressure, and to add, many market participants expect a travel boom in the summer. All of this requires energy, and most of it is still made up of fossil components. For some time now, oil prices have benefited from the prospect of a gradual increase in demand. The decisive factor is the economic recovery, especially in the USA, China and large parts of Europe. In this environment, the oil ministers of the OPEC+ Group intend to discuss their production policy on Tuesday.

Biotechnology is the map to the holy grail that needs to be found as quickly as possible for many sick people. When the pandemic broke out last year, it accelerated some developments. For example, mRNA technology, which BioNTech and CureVac had already been researching, was successfully launched as a vaccine technology. It is well known that this can be used to develop effective vaccines against coronaviruses and target diseases such as cancer. BioNTech has this option in mind and holds good cards to succeed with it. The young biotech startup Defence Therapeutics has also recently reported its first successes in the fight against cancer.

dynaCERT, Plug Power, Nel ASA - Hydrogen stocks pick up speed again!
Undeniably, 2020 was a fantastic year for stocks even remotely involved in hydrogen technology. It seems all too obvious that hydrogen will become an essential part of the new energy mix and play a central role in most major industrial and transportation projects. Whether as a fuel in the automotive industry (both for combustion and in fuel cell technology) or as a storage medium for smart power grids, the high-energy gas that burns only to form water is seen as the answer to many questions. Then, in early 2021, a trend reversal. Too many uncertainties about the green production and usability of hydrogen technology unsettled investors, so a correction followed. Now, however, hydrogen stocks are starting a new rally, and those who were too late last time should think about getting in now.

You do not have to be an economist or a well-connected investment guru to evaluate opportunities on the stock market. It is often the apparent developments and trends that point the market in the right direction. For investors, it is then a matter of interpreting these facts. For example, building materials are scarcer than ever - prices for wood and other essential materials have risen rapidly. Industrial metals are also in high demand. New technology, investment in construction and infrastructure, and the end of the pandemic make for an explosive mix.

BYD, Kodiak Copper, Xiaomi - Copper: Buy or cash in?
The demand for copper will continue to grow. These are the findings of the recently published study by the International Copper Association (ICA). The ICA predicts that by 2030, more than 250,000 tons of copper per year will be used as part of the windings in electric traction motors. But copper is also in demand in many other industries. Demand exceeding supply or supply bottlenecks can make the raw material more expensive overnight at any time. For this reason, today, we take a look at a budding copper producer. Of course, large demanders such as BYD or Xiaomi must not be missing in the consideration. After all, our everyday companion, the smartphone, contains 15% copper. Let us surprise you with three exciting investment ideas.

The first delicate, chart-technical stabilization tendencies can be recognized with many shares of the boom industry. The importance of hydrogen as an energy source will increase in the coming decades as governments work to reduce carbon dioxide emissions. Hydrogen produces no carbon dioxide when burned or used in a fuel cell to generate electricity. Thus, rosy times are ahead for the industry. Take advantage of the second chance!

It could still end badly! The crypto world corrects properly; Bitcoin has now lost over 50% from the top. Whether it was the ban in China or simply an exaggeration - we do not know. The fact is that stocks continue to rise just like yields, i.e. the inflation trend in assets of all kinds is once again in full swing. The stock and real estate markets are not bothered by the higher interest rates, and commodities are also marking new highs every day. The bull market in commodities seems well-founded if one wants to evaluate the physical scarcity of wood, iron, nickel, copper and aluminum. The same is true for gold & silver. Will lithium also start again soon?

One potential candidate for this is the Canadian Company Barsele Minerals, developing a prospective gold project in Sweden. Deutsche Bank, on the other hand, recently showed how not to do it.

First Majestic Silver, NewPeak Metals, K+S - Soaring commodity prices
Commodity prices continue to soar. If we compare the first quarter of 2021 with 2020, we can assume an average price increase of 36.7%. As the raw materials market is currently unable to respond quickly enough to the high demand in many countries, prices are rising. An end to this spiral is currently not foreseeable, as more and more countries are slowly getting to grips with the Corona pandemic. Thus the demand for raw materials will continue to grow. We have picked out three exciting companies from the commodities sector today.

Bitcoin Group, SUSE, Barrick Gold, Troilus Gold - Gold is back!
Now the question arises: precious metals or crypto? The answer was straightforward in recent days because the cryptocurrencies corrected hand in hand with the Bitcoin crash by up to 80%. On the other hand, gold and silver were able to optimize their chart trajectories upwards and regained the levels from last summer. Gold is now USD 150 short of the 2020 high, and silver is just under USD 2 short. Precious metal fans say that this is all to be done; the crypto community, on the other hand, calls the digital currency the new salvation. Currently, this is probably a problematic stalemate for investors, but the long-term trends speak in favor of gold.

Following a performance of over 15% since the start of the year, the DAX seems to be running out of steam around the 15,500 mark. At least a short correction would be more than due here and only healthy to tackle the next barriers to the top. Gold was able to break through the USD 1,900 mark for the first time this year. It should now be a done deal that the correction that has been underway since August has come to an end. The general conditions of rising inflation fears and the further loose monetary policy of the central banks should soon help the precious yellow metal to new highs.

NEL, Plug Power, FuelCell, dynaCERT: Hydrogen stocks - is there a comeback?
At the start of the year, they were the hit stocks - the hydrogen stocks. The expectation was that governments would heavily subsidize hydrogen alongside electromobility to help another green alternative to the internal combustion engine get off the ground. The idea was good but failed on only one point: battery-powered vehicles already exist in large numbers, but H2 vehicles suitable for mass production do not yet exist. With a lack of products, no tax rebates or the like can be granted either. So today, the private consumer can only choose one green technology, the electric or hybrid drive. Is there still a future for hydrogen values?

Kodiak Copper, ThyssenKrupp, BYD: Three trends in one share
Copper is the metal of the moment. There are several reasons in favor of copper. Firstly, copper is benefiting from the global economic recovery following the end of the pandemic. The industrial metal has always been the primary beneficiary when infrastructure is invested in or otherwise built. It is precisely in this way that countries want to boost their economies after the pandemic. At the same time, there is a dynamic demand from the e-car industry. E-cars and charging infrastructure, none of that works without copper. And last but not least, inflation is getting to us - the Bundesbank is already expecting inflation rates beyond the 4% mark. Again, commodity prices tend to benefit.

Since the end of March 2020, the copper price has doubled. The trend is intact and investors are using every minor interim correction to get in. After the pandemic, countries worldwide want to get their economies back on track and fit for the future. Investments in infrastructure have been overdue for years anyway and are the very first measure for many countries. Sustainable solutions, such as charging infrastructure for electromobility, are also on the agenda. The copper price should continue to benefit. Demand from Germany, in particular, is likely to increase - a look at the polls in the election year suggests that it should soon rain billions for electric cars and their charging infrastructure. Some stocks are already benefiting.

BYD, Carnavale Resources, NIO - Now into the megatrend
Without question, electromobility will be one of the future industries in terms of the energy transition. Car manufacturers are already vying to determine when the final switch from combustion engines to purely electric cars will occur. In Germany alone, around 12 million e-vehicles will be rolling along the roads in 2030. With the switch to electric-powered vehicles, demand for the necessary raw materials is also rising. The high level of interest offers enormous opportunities to participate in the trend, which is still in its infancy.

Nel ASA, Triumph Gold, Palantir - Inflation is coming!
According to the Bundesbank, the inflation rate in Germany could rise to 4% by the end of the year. In the United States, this was already at 4.2% in April. According to central bankers, this is related to the reopening of the economy after the Corona Crisis and supply bottlenecks, and it is likely to remain only a temporary phenomenon. Instead of counteracting with interest rate hikes, the lively money printing continues. Protection against escalating price increases is advisable. The conditions for investing in gold have never been as favorable as they are now.

Chips sold out: Nvidia, Infineon, AMD, Defense Metals - E-mobility empties the shelves!
The high-tech industry is currently not coming to rest. The great excitement in the industry is enormous, resulting in delivery bottlenecks for important control and sensor chips, especially for the automotive industry. In addition to delayed deliveries, there are also general resource bottlenecks in the raw materials sector. Often, 50% higher immediate delivery prices for individual components have to be included in the calculation. The chip shortage is a side effect of the Corona Crisis. Due to home offices and misjudgments of the limited manufacturing capacities, supply bottlenecks for semiconductors and components have been occurring since 2020. We take a look at an industry that has had a hard time since the trade war between the USA and China.

Almonty Industries, ThyssenKrupp, Klöckner & Co.- Indispensable raw materials!
According to the EU, tungsten is one of the most critical raw materials globally in terms of economic importance and procurement risk. The chemical element has the highest melting and boiling point and is therefore used in many critical industrial sectors. The main application of tungsten is in the form of tungsten steel - a high-alloy steel. Given the resource scarcity, it is reason enough for us to take a closer look at the interface between the steel industry and tungsten production with three promising stocks. Where is the yield driver?

White Metal Resources, BASF, K+S: How to react to 4% inflation
As reported by Handelsblatt, the German Bundesbank expects an inflation rate of up to 4% by year-end. Within the eurozone, for which the central bank ECB is responsible, it could be well over 2%. This mixed situation is particularly tricky for Germans. While inflation in Germany is already very high, the lower price momentum within the eurozone could ensure that the ECB leaves its money floodgates open for even longer. In the long term, this could encourage inflation to overshoot. How can investors react to this? We present three stocks.

BioNTech, PsyBio, Bayer: The opportunities of tomorrow
Even after the pandemic, there will be no "business as usual" in the healthcare system, as shown by a survey conducted a few months ago by the Barmer Institute for Health Research. The scientists surveyed called for far-reaching reforms. In addition to billing and uniform rules, digitization could also be a key to meaningful reforms. Innovative drugs also play a role when it comes to treating Covid-19 and concomitant diseases.

Bayer, Saturn Oil + Gas, Deutsche Lufthansa - All the ingredients for a price fireworks display!
Information moves prices. Sometimes up, sometimes down, and sometimes information seems to "bounce off" - ignored or misinterpreted by market participants. It is easier said than done to correctly classify the information in relation to the long-term perspective of a company. Thus, as seen last week with Bayer and Deutsche Lufthansa, a short-term price dampener is a good opportunity to enter the market. But also, information that is complex in detail and must first be "understood", offers the chance to make a real bargain. Canadian oil and gas producer Saturn is a case in point. The Company is moving into new dimensions with an acquisition, and according to the latest analyst report, the stock has the potential to triple in value. Where will you buy?

Attention Crypto Investors! Coinbase, SAP, Glencore, Barsele Minerals - Where are the opportunities?
Those who want to make returns today often attach themselves to well-known names such as Elon Musk, Warren Buffett or even Cathie Wood. The latter is a former portfolio manager at Alliance Bernstein. She has become known in recent years for being a trump card of technology investors. Her ARK funds raised a whopping USD 34.5 billion in 2020. One of its flagship funds is the ARK Innovation ETF, which has its largest positions invested in NASDAQ darlings. For the past month, this fund has had a problem, as 14% declines have rarely been seen on a monthly basis. Tesla, Coinbase, and Zoom are the largest positions and they are dropping big time right now.

ThyssenKrupp, SunMirror, Siemens Energy - Putting the energy transition in jeopardy
The pandemic issue is slowly fading into the background on the news pages. The energy transition is currently on everyone's lips again. Of course, the election campaign is beginning. The German Green Party positions itself and is calling for a complete switch to alternative energies. On its homepage, you can read the sentence: "We have a plan for the energy world of the future!" However, whether this plan has been thought through to the last point can be more than doubted. Phasing out climate-damaging coal and switching to completely alternative energies requires raw materials whose import is in no way guaranteed for the next few years due to scarcity.

Daimler, QMines, Freeport McMoRan, Glencore, BMW - The Gold of Energy Transition
It is not without reason that copper is currently at a 10-year high. On the one hand, the recovering economies in China and the USA have enormously boosted demand for the metal. On the other hand, copper is one of the most important metals in the energy transition. Demand for solar modules, wind turbines and electric cars already exceeded supply last year. Yet, the new technologies are only at the beginning of a new cycle. The copper shortage is expected to increase dramatically in the next ten years. Profit from the new gold.

Barrick Gold, Newmont, GSP Resource: With this stock from the start
Gold is trading around USD 1,900 again. At the same time, inflation data is picking up and Bitcoin is proving extremely volatile. These are good conditions for companies in the gold and commodities sectors. Although the shares of the best-known representatives are already slowly picking up, there are still numerous laggards. Commodity stocks have a lot to offer, from conservative to speculative - we outline this below using three stocks as examples.

ESG stands for Environmental, Social and Governance. The Environmental area covers environmental pollution or hazards, such as CO2 emissions and energy efficiency issues. In the Social space, health care, occupational safety and social commitment are assessed. Under leadership, one looks at sustainability, corporate values and their control processes. The trend towards ESG shares has increased significantly in recent years. Especially for the younger generation, sustainability is fundamental. We take a look at three companies that are addressing sustainability.

BASF, White Metal Resources, Deutsche Telekom - The winners of future trends
By 2025, there will be around 1.5 billion vehicles on the road worldwide. This figure is alarming since today we have to contend with rising air pollution and the consequences of climate change. However, the energy transition, which is being accelerated more and more by both politics and business, will increasingly require scarce raw materials and novel technologies. These requirements give rise to young companies that will benefit in the long term from rising sales and bubbling profits.

Trend break, please look closely! BYD, Nel ASA, Bitcoin Group, SunMirror
"Turned on its heel" would be an apt description for Wednesday. Bitcoin was at the record-breaking USD 65,000 mark in mid-April and there were announcements that the USD 100,000 mark would soon be on the cards. Since that high, the cryptocurrency has plummeted by over 50% at the low and immediately stormed back up. The anti-protagonists of this casino mentality cite the decarbonization of the planet as a reason why the entire crypto world should be condemned for its power-hungry mining. Others see blockchain technology as the most significant digitization breakthrough of the future. Some companies are directly affected by these movements.

BYD, Nevada Copper, AT&T - Nothing works without copper
More and more people worldwide have access to electricity. The electrification of the world is progressing and this requires copper - the non-precious metal that conducts electricity best. Copper was one of the most widely used industrial metals even before the advent of renewable energies and e-mobility. It is found in consumer goods such as air conditioners, telephones and everything around power grids. Increased sales of e-cars are also increasing demand for the "red gold" here, as more copper is needed for these than in conventional passenger cars. Added to this is the charging infrastructure for e-cars, which still has to be built nationwide. Demand will certainly not decrease, but since the supply is not growing at the same time, rising prices are the result.

Silkroad Nickel, NIO, Varta - Pre-programmed bottlenecks = price opportunities
Electromobility and battery technology are inextricably linked. Sales figures for e-vehicles are rising rapidly and will multiply in the next few years. This global increase in production will become challenging in many places. Not just with the competitive situation, which is becoming increasingly intense as Chinese players gain strength, but also the availability of the critical raw materials for battery production. There are signs of a huge supply deficit in nickel over the next few years. We show you how to invest with foresight and profitably.

Newmont, Desert Gold, Kinross Gold, Aspermont: Gold outperforms Bitcoin
In about eight weeks, the price of gold has transformed from a problem child to a beacon of hope. The reason: inflation is on the rise. In the US, consumer prices are already at 4.2%. At the same time, more and more economies are taking steps towards normality as the pandemic nears its end. That should ensure that prices continue to rise. Gold is particularly interesting because while demand can explode overnight, supply is slow to grow. Using various companies as examples, we explain how money can be made with this mixture of factors.

Climate change, renewable energies, electric mobility - these are the topics that currently occupy the headlines alongside Corona. People forget that in 2020, more than 75% of the global energy supply was still covered by coal, oil and gas. Due to the resurgent economy after the pandemic, the demand for black gold is increasing enormously. Last year, JP Morgan already predicted the start of a new "oil supercycle" that could propel the price to just under USD 200 per barrel. A feast for producers.

Bitcoin, Etherum and the entire crypto family are rushing into the basement. The reason for this is once again the Middle Kingdom. After a statement by the Chinese central bank that one may not use digital currencies for payment purposes, they lost more than 20% in value yesterday. China's market power is even greater when it comes to raw materials for the energy transition. Due to the scarcity of the corresponding metals, prices will rise enormously in the long term. Producers who offer alternatives in the Western industrialized countries can profit significantly from this.

The stock market is showing initial downward reactions. Having trended close to its high of 15,508 points again at the beginning of the week, the DAX saw a sell-off in growth stocks yesterday. Again, hydrogen stocks, e-mobility and especially crypto stocks were targeted by sellers. The crypto collapse of up to 50% was once again fueled by the Chinese government yesterday. The nationwide trading ban declared since 2013 was repeated accordingly. One can well imagine that trader turnover will soon be controlled and sanctioned on the Internet as well. The crypto community reacted in shock to this news.

Royal Helium, Royal Dutch Shell, Gazprom - These commodity stocks are stepping on the gas
Commodities are currently on everyone's lips again: energy transition, electromobility, medical progress. All of these require resources that, as always, have to be laboriously extracted or produced. Corona has made the situation even worse: people are currently feeling the pain of global production shortfalls. Semiconductor chips are currently in short supply, and copper prices are rising. What this means for the manufacturing industry and the end consumer, however, is reflected in the profits of the raw material producers. Time to take a closer look at them and profit from the development!

Concerns about escalating price increases pushed the precious metals away from their lows in recent weeks. Currently, both gold and silver are about to test their medium-term downtrends.

Due to the historically high national debts and the ultra-loose monetary policy of the central banks, this would be fundamentally justified in any case.
