Price developments on stock markets around the world have led to enormous losses for investors in recent weeks. Particularly hard hit were investors who worked leveraged with credits and had to sell their positions in connection with falling prices.

    In purchasing is the profit

    The oil price will be in the spotlight today as a video conference of OPEC+ member countries is expected to result in a cut in production. Due to the drop in demand for the black gold as a result of the Corona Crisis, the price has fallen. The oversupply must be reduced in a concerted manner by the producers in order to increase the profit margins per barrel.

    Companies like Royal Dutch Shell and Saturn Oil & Gas are therefore in the focus of investors. The CEO of Saturn Oil & Gas, John Jeffrey, recently announced that he will be prioritizing ESG criteria from now on. The appointment of dynaCERT CEO Jim Payne as a new board member supports this step. As a CleanTech company, dynaCERT has developed a hydrogen technology that will be used in the oil industry in the future.

    Growth market fertility treatment

    In a recent interview, Alison Coutts, Executive Chairman of Memphasys, announced that the company expects to begin distributing FELIX in the second half of this year. The FELIX device helps in the separation of sperm for couples who wish to have children. In addition, the medical innovation should also be able to be used for animals in the future. The market for artificial insemination is growing because more and more couples decide to have their own child at a later age and the natural chances of a successful pregnancy then decrease significantly.

    Investors shy away from risk

    The two financial houses Commerzbank and Wirecard have also come under enormous pressure in recent weeks. While the Wirecard shares are already trading above the level of December 2019 again, the value of the Commerbank shares is still close to the all-time low. The advantage of the payment service provider Wirecard is that, despite curfews, online transactions are processed via the company's systems. At Commerzbank, there are fears that the default risks for the bank will increase with ongoing economic restrictions in connection with the Corona Crisis.

    10% dividend yield and upside potential: These stocks offer both - RE Royalties, Lang & Schwarz, and DWS

    • royalties

    • Investments

    High dividends delight investors. It is even better when they are accompanied by growth potential and rising share prices. Lang & Schwarz's share price has recently plummeted. Can the dividend level of EUR 2, which corresponds to an 11% yield, be maintained for the payout scheduled for late August? DWS is set to pay a special dividend next year, which could also yield up to 10%. RE Royalties tops these figures with a highly scalable and innovative financing model. Furthermore, creating shareholder value is at the top of the priority list. All-around positive prospects for shareholders!

    Interest Rates, Commodities, and Real Estate: Why Deutsche Bank, Globex Mining, and Vonovia Could Help Diversify a Portfolio

    The European Central Bank continues to keep markets guessing over the path of interest rates, geopolitical risks remain elevated, and Germany's residential property market is still searching for stability. The key question is no longer which sector will outperform, but how banks, commodities, and residential real estate can be combined to help balance interest rate risk and broader market volatility. Investors who focus solely on gold or a potential real estate rebound may overlook the more complex reality: monetary policy, commodity cycles, and construction costs each follow their own dynamics. As a result, diversification across these themes is becoming increasingly important. Deutsche Bank, Globex Mining with its diversified commodities portfolio, and the real estate group Vonovia each represent one of these three pillars and could serve as complementary building blocks within a well-diversified portfolio.

    Lahontan Gold's stock is currently one of the most exciting gold mining stocks. The Canadian small-cap has more than tripled over the past year and could be poised for its next big move, as the North American company's business model still holds significant growth potential. This is likely to be confirmed by an updated preliminary economic assessment, which is eagerly anticipated and is scheduled to be completed by the end of August.
