New record highs every day – a joy for investors, but a source of stress for fund managers. Time and again in history, stock markets have risen unchecked, only to be followed by an equally unexpected correction. This usually happens when there is a high degree of complacency. One indicator of investor sentiment is the so-called Fear & Greed Index. With values above 75 out of 100, it has been in the "Extreme Greed" zone for weeks now. But as a famous quote from the 1987 movie "Wall Street" said: "Greed is good!" We examine a few stocks with promising prospects and are betting on a continuation of the remarkable rally.

    D-Wave – Quantum computing at its best

    D-Wave Systems is one of the pioneers in the field of quantum computing and pursues a clearly differentiated approach: Instead of focusing on universal quantum computers, the Canadian company concentrates on so-called quantum annealers, which have been specially developed for optimization problems. This technology allows highly complex problems, such as those in logistics, financial modeling, and materials research, to be solved faster and more efficiently than with traditional systems. A strategic milestone was the introduction of the "Leap" cloud platform, which gives customers worldwide access to D-Wave's quantum processors. The Company is thus democratizing access to quantum power and creating a commercially viable ecosystem for developers, researchers, and companies.

    Particularly noteworthy is the ability to translate real-world business problems into quantum formats – an area in which D-Wave cooperates with industry partners such as Lockheed Martin, Volkswagen, and NEC. Unlike IBM and Google's gate-based systems, which tend to focus on long-term basic research, D-Wave pursues an application-oriented business model. By combining specialized hardware and scalable cloud access, the Company is positioning itself as a link between classic IT and next-generation quantum computing. Given growing computing requirements and the global trend toward edge optimization, interest in hybrid solutions is growing, and D-Wave is at the forefront of this development. D-Wave shares are one of the shooting stars on the Nasdaq, with a performance yesterday reaching 1,400% since fall of 2024. With estimated revenue of USD 25 million in 2025, a market capitalization of just under USD 5 billion is already impressive!

    MiMedia – How an AI-based cloud platform is becoming a global growth driver

    MiMedia is positioning itself as an innovative provider in the cloud segment and is pursuing a high-growth niche model. The innovative platform enables Android users to intelligently store, organize, and access their personal media content across devices. Unlike traditional cloud providers, MiMedia focuses on an AI-powered user experience that offers not only storage space but also real added value through personalization and seamless media integration. This offering clearly sets it apart from standard pre-installed cloud solutions and creates emotional loyalty through a consistent and intuitive user experience.

    A key driver of growth is direct integration into new smartphone models. MiMedia has gained a partner in US manufacturer Orbic, which will ship its robust devices worldwide with the MiMedia app as the standard gallery solution starting in 2025. This opens up new user groups for the Company, particularly in application areas such as construction, emergency services, and tourism. At the same time, the Company is expanding into emerging markets such as Africa, where it supports telecommunications providers in monetizing their customer bases.

    Increased presence at conferences such as the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona and direct OEM partnerships are leading to greater visibility and increased reach. Currently, over 35 million app installations have been agreed for the next 24 months. In addition, MiMedia is focusing on recurring revenues from storage subscriptions and in-app advertising with attractive margins of over 80%. Thanks to continuous platform optimizations, including faster uploads and enhanced security, customer loyalty is also improving steadily. With investments of over CAD 50 million over six years, MiMedia is now focusing on global scaling. The combination of AI, mobile lifestyle, and strategic OEM networking positions the Company as a serious challenger to established cloud providers, especially in untapped markets. Recently, CAD 3.872 million was raised through a private placement to support upcoming growth. The MIM share price already reflects high momentum and has gained 150% since the start of the year. As stock market traders like to say: "The trend is your friend!" – With the topic at the center of all high-tech discussions, MiMedia has a bright future ahead.**

    SMCI – Strong partnership with NVIDIA

    Two Nasdaq protagonists are currently gaining momentum hand in hand. These are Super Micro Computer (SMCI) and the world's most expensive publicly traded company, NVIDIA. Their long-standing partnership marks a key alliance in the high-tech sector that is shaping the global AI and data center market. SMCI provides highly specialized server solutions that are perfectly matched to NVIDIA's GPU-based accelerators. This combination enables companies to handle AI workloads more efficiently, faster, and more cost-effectively. The integration of state-of-the-art NVIDIA chips, such as the H100 and Grace Hopper, into SMCI systems creates high-performance platforms that set new standards for training and inference in AI models, as well as in GenAI and edge applications.

    This opens up groundbreaking application possibilities, especially in hyperscale and enterprise environments.

    SMCI benefits from its first-mover advantage and its ability to deliver customized, energy-efficient complete solutions extremely quickly. NVIDIA, in turn, gains a reliable hardware partner in SMCI that brings innovation to a wider audience. This synergy not only drives technological developments, but also creates strong market momentum. This enables companies worldwide to accelerate their AI strategies and make digital transformation a reality. At USD 52 and a market capitalization of USD 28 billion, SMCI still has strong upside potential relative to NVIDIA, with experts estimating a 2026 P/E ratio of around 18. NVIDIA's P/E ratio is 38.5 – more than twice as high.

    In the 6-month review, MiMedia and D-Wave Quantum are clearly in focus with gains of 158 to 200%. Even tech giant NVIDIA pales in comparison, reporting a profit of only 14%. SMCI is well on its way to joining the ranks of these top performers. Source: LSEG as of July 23, 2025

    The performance game starts anew every day. There is no end in sight for high-tech stocks, as the whole world is currently gearing up with AI and cloud services. MiMedia is rolling out its technologies in the smartphone sector and has excellent growth prospects in this environment. The rally at SMCI is likely to continue unabated, while the movement at D-Wave is fascinating.

    Every day, a flood of news hits the capital markets. The focus is on international crises, which in turn have major implications for national economies. Areas with large fossil fuel reserves are coming to the fore, and for months now, scenarios of critical metal shortages have been discussed and reassessed accordingly. High-tech and AI stocks thrive on a steady influx of computing power and are dependent on the promised expansion of the electrical infrastructure. This requires a variety of raw materials from the metal sector. Power Metallic Mines has positioned itself perfectly in the current situation with its NISK project, while Oracle and SAP are driven by their cloud and data models, which are falling out of favor due to AI. It remains to be seen whether a revival in earnings can take place in line with analysts' estimates. It is not easy to convince people, so we are analyzing the accompanying circumstances.

    Nuclear power comeback in the EU! Solid returns with American Atomics, Amazon, and E.ON

    Since the EU nuclear summit in Paris a few days ago, it has become clear that nuclear energy is once again socially acceptable in Europe. At the meeting, the European Commission described the former move away from nuclear power as a strategic mistake and launched a comprehensive offensive for small modular reactors (SMRs). According to the EU strategy, an SMR capacity of up to 53 GW is to be built up by 2050 in order to reduce the persistently high electricity prices and stop the impending exodus of industry. At the same time, a new factor is driving global electricity demand: artificial intelligence (AI). The International Energy Agency (IEA) predicts that the share of nuclear and renewable energy in the global electricity mix will rise to 50% by 2030. Tech giants such as Amazon increasingly want to satisfy the energy hunger of AI data centers themselves. E.ON is also likely to benefit from this historic strategic shift by operating stable grids. However, at the source of the new boom is the up-and-coming exploration company American Atomics, which is searching for urgently needed uranium and closing a strategic gap in the supply chain. We highlight where investors can find the most attractive opportunities.

    Tensions in Iran have escalated rapidly, with military actions unfolding over a seven-day period. For the international community and struggling economies, a sustained 20% increase in oil prices means a sharp decline in economic growth and a huge surge in inflation on store shelves due to downstream inflationary effects. Consumers will not fall into a new buying frenzy in times of war, but will keep their wallets closed. Stock market traders need to think beyond short-term reactions. The real opportunities may now lie in companies that have struggled in recent days or emerging stocks with strong long-term prospects. Which names are positioned to recover fastest once the crisis stabilizes?
