What is the next big trend or with what can you achieve a decent return in the next days, weeks, months or even years? These are the questions that investors are currently asking themselves because the world and the investment environment have changed dramatically since the outbreak of the Corona Pandemic. On the one hand, social and economic life around the globe came to a virtual standstill and, in contrast, the German leading index, for example, after a short and sharp correction, is now only around 10% below its all-time high of last February. Those who have so far missed the start of the recovery phase are now looking for opportunities that have attractive price potential in the second half of the year.

    Potential in the gold boom

    In the context of the Corona Pandemic, central banks around the world have adopted measures to ensure the stability of the financial system. The money supply was drastically increased and thus the course was set for a higher inflation rate. If you want to avoid the risk of currency devaluation, gold is a safe haven. The private banker John Pierpont (J.P.) Morgan is said to have once said that gold is money and everything else is credit. This proven truth may well be the beginning of a new trend.

    Each piece of gold is unique. This year gold production is expected to peak at around 118 million ounces. By 2029, production is expected to decline by up to 45%. The reserves of gold producers are also shrinking. In the period from 2012 to 2019 the reserves of the major producers were down 34% to 584 million ounces. Triumph Gold is exploring projects in the Canadian Yukon and already has the producer Newmont on board as a major shareholder. With further discoveries and a stable gold price, a takeover is a common exit strategy for shareholders.

    Loser of political planning

    The Daimler Group is currently in a dilemma. On the one hand, politicians have defined emission standards that limit the scope for action with regard to the product range and at the same time demand electromobility in which there is a widespread lack of charging and refueling facilities. The chicken/egg problem will be exacerbated by a lack of public understanding that electric mobility should be clean. As long as the source of the electricity is not cleaner than a combustion engine and the problem of disposal or recycling of batteries is not solved, sales are likely to decline and the lifetimes of combustion engines will be extended. The experiment to influence the climate will change Germany massively.

    Germany's heavyweight

    The German software company SAP is by far the most expensive company in the DAX. SAP's market value is currently around EUR 145 bn, well ahead of Linde with EUR 97 bn and Siemens with EUR 86 bn. Without SAP, many companies around the world can no longer function. The company has made itself simply irreplaceable with its software solutions. The latest project from SAP in cooperation with Deutsche Telekom is the Corona Warn App of the German government. SAP's stock combines vision, expertise and dividends.

    Nordex strong! D-Wave with an important date! JPMorgan gives Finexity a tailwind!

    Stock market newcomer Finexity is still struggling with its revolutionary business model. The Company operates a trading platform for tokenized assets. The fact that JPMorgan is now also entering the tokenization sector is a real bombshell. This should benefit the entire industry, including Finexity, especially since the Hamburg-based company is collaborating with a savings bank in a pilot project. This offers the opportunity to reach over 45 million potential customers. Nordex has won over customers in France and Belgium. The German company will supply them with wind turbines in 2026 and 2027. Can the stock break out? D-Wave has made substantial gains in recent days. An important event is coming up for the quantum pioneer in January.

    Defense stocks are RISING! The US is leaving Europe on its own! Rheinmetall, Hensoldt, and Antimony Resources!

    Investors are once again snapping up defense stocks. On the one hand, peace in Ukraine seems unlikely in the foreseeable future. On the other hand, Europe can no longer rely on the US. Rheinmetall and Hensoldt are therefore in high demand. The shares of both companies have gained ground in recent days and have received additional tailwind from orders. Defense companies such as Rheinmetall and Hensoldt would likely face major problems without antimony. Nevertheless, this critical metal is relatively unknown among investors. Here, too, China determines supply. This makes Antimony Resources interesting for investors. After strong share price gains, the stock has recently consolidated. This offers an entry opportunity before the first resource estimate is published shortly.

    Gold rush 2026: Position yourself quickly! Keep an eye on Barrick, B2Gold, Desert Gold, and DroneShield!

    Who would have thought it? Gold and silver are the clear winners among defensive assets in the 2025 investment year. Protection against inflation, geopolitical risks, and fiscal-policy uncertainty has made precious metals shine, which, despite all the doom and gloom from tech stock market traders, were able to generate high double-digit returns of 57% and 82%, respectively. Of course, a 10% drop in the US dollar is weighing on returns in euros, but there is still a nice profit left in the account. Gold and silver mining stocks and, selectively, some explorers performed even better. In today's peer group, we turn our attention to the African continent, where important changes in the regulatory and economic environment could transform local producers into potential cash machines in 2026.
