In recent months, central banks and politicians around the world have taken hand in hand actions to preserve the economy and social peace, despite restrictions to curb the spread of the Corona Pandemic. The money supply has been increased and travel opportunities have been restricted. The planned holidays were cancelled and jobs were moved to the home. Luxury was almost impossible to think of and nothing remained as it once was. What options do investors now have to deal with this situation?

    Majestic luxury cars

    Aston Martin Lagonda is a British luxury car group with two brands and can look back on more than 100 years of experience. During the Corona Crisis, the British company had to increase its equity capital by issuing new ordinary shares in order to use the additional funds to compensate for the slump in sales. The Canadian billionaire Lawrence Stroll is one of Aston Martin's major shareholders.

    The shares of the manufacturer of the legendary James Bond car lost significant value during the Corona period. Aston Martin now wants to survive the crisis through cost-cutting and restructuring. The management has high hopes for the introduction of a new off-road vehicle called "DBX". However, industry experts criticise that the company is jumping on the trend much too late. Porsche, Bentley and other competitors have been profiting from the lucrative SUVs for quite some time.

    A promising strategy

    SolGold is a successful exploration company focused on the discovery and definition of very large copper and gold deposits. The company has a first-mover advantage in Ecuador, in a very promising but little explored section of the Andean Copper Belt, which hosts several large copper and gold projects. The deposits probably host half of the world's copper resources.

    From an investor's perspective, for projects of the magnitude of SolGold, it is important to remember that the right team with sufficient experience is particularly important to be successful in implementing a strategy. With copper and gold, the company focuses on commodities that can serve a booming market. The electrification of modern society requires huge amounts of copper and as the money supply increases, more and more people are fleeing with their wealth into the oldest currency in the world. With gold production expected to reach its historic peak in 2020, these are good conditions for SolGold and its shareholders.

    A reliable travel partner even in bad times

    The TUI Group is one of the world leaders in the tourism industry. As a responsible company, TUI is not only affected by global travel restrictions during the Corona Pandemic, but has also brought back stranded tourists from all parts of the world or looked after them. A nightmare from a business perspective. Not only did the revenues collapse, but money had to be spent to cope with the situation.

    No company can survive permanently without turnover and with considerable costs. For this reason, TUI, which got into the situation through no fault of its own, has also received financial support from the German government. In the EU, more and more travel is now becoming possible and also on a national level, the travel business is booming due to a lack of alternatives. However, before TUI can return to its former strength, the worldwide travel restrictions must fall.

    When interest rates rise, and the mountains of debt in Western industrialised nations grow ever higher, experience shows that investors view the financial system with increasing unease. The automatic tendency to simply park liquidity in accounts or invest it in government bonds is being called into question. On both sides of the Atlantic, the strain is becoming palpable. While US public finances are suffering from ever-higher interest rates, ailing infrastructure and high energy prices are weighing on Europe's economic potential. This also shines a spotlight on banks, which, as key players in the financial system, serve as a barometer of financial stability. Resourceful investors are already changing their behaviour and turning their attention increasingly to crisis-proof tangible assets such as gold.

    The gold market surged by a whopping 15% in August, reaching as high as USD 4,700 per ounce. The last time such an explosive single-month rise was seen in the gold sector was 27 years ago. The triggers are the fragile US fiscal policy, conflicts in the Middle East and the Fed's expected interest rate cut. Gold companies are benefiting from the high gold price. Leading the way are those operating in West Africa's most promising gold-producing regions. In Mali, calm is returning following the political turmoil. The country increased production by 30% in the first half of the year, while Côte d'Ivoire attracts investors with its stability and rich deposits. Reason enough for us to take a closer look at Newmont, Kobo Resources and B2Gold.
