Energy supply and mobility are two crucial areas in our everyday life but also in the economy. Long misunderstood, hydrogen technology has finally moved into the spotlight, providing new answers to urgent questions. Hydrogen can be used universally, is easy to store, and can be converted back into electricity. But wherever there is potential and growth, there are occasional exaggerations. That is a normal course of events in the stock market world. We are convinced that the growth of the industry will continue sustainably and dynamically. We show you how to position yourself correctly now.

    ENAPTER AG - Hydrogen production for everyone?

    To invest in exciting companies from the hydrogen sector, investors do not have to look abroad. Since last summer, the German stock market has been enriched by Enapter in a reverse IPO. The Heidelberg-based Company is the technology leader in anion exchange membrane (AEM) electrolysis. This process allows "green" hydrogen to be produced. The technology makes it possible to build relatively small, standardized modules that can then be coupled and scaled up. Compared to conventional, much larger plants, flexibility is increased and maintenance is reduced. Control is simple and done via an app.

    The hydrogen economy market is enormous. Forecasts by the German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy indicate the dimensions: It is expected that by 2050, 5.4 million jobs will be created in Europe, and EUR 800 billion will be turned over! This forecast naturally plays into Enapter's cards. The Company wants to produce 100,000 electrolyzers p.a. initially in its factory as early as next year.

    Enapter is undoubtedly one of the most exciting companies on the German capital market. With the market penetration of the innovative technology, green energy can easily be converted into green hydrogen. Should this succeed, the motto "hydrogen for everyone" would become a reality.

    NEL ASA - Ambitious medium-term targets

    Norway-based Nel is a global hydrogen Company with its service offering including solutions for the production, storage and distribution of hydrogen from renewable energy sources. The Company covers the entire value chain, with demand from the industrial, energy and gas sectors.

    Last week, the Company hosted a Capital Market Day to communicate its targets for 2025. Also, Nel renewed its claim of continuing to play a leading role in the industry in the future. The Norwegian Company wants to offer customers green, renewable hydrogen from its large-scale plants for USD 1.5 per kilo in certain markets as early as 2025. According to CEO Løkke, this would achieve parity with fossil fuels and take an important step toward a carbon-neutral planet.

    Nel's products cover a wide range. The formulated price target at which hydrogen is to be produced in the medium term gives an idea of the disruptive potential. Therefore, it is not surprising that Nel expects the global hydrogen market to grow by more than a factor of 8 from the current 70 million tons by 2050. But then green hydrogen will dominate. Nel is a fundamental investment for all investors who believe in the success of the industry.

    LINDE PLC - New USD 5 billion share buyback program announced

    The global market leader in industrial gases yesterday announced two pieces of positive news regarding its dividend policy. First, the quarterly dividend will increase by 10%, and second, the DAX-listed Group is launching a new share buyback program. Investors rewarded this, and the stock was one of the winners in the leading index yesterday.

    The quarterly dividend will rise to USD 1.06 per share and will be paid on March 22, 2021 to shareholders of record on March 5, 2021. The Group is thus consistently continuing its dividend policy. In addition, the current USD 6.0 billion share buyback program, which ends on February 1, 2021, will be replaced by a new USD 5.0 billion buyback program. Given a strong balance sheet and good growth prospects, the Company considers itself comfortable distributing the cash surplus to shareholders.

    Technical gases have applications in a wide range of industries, including medical (e.g. endoscopy and respiration), food (cooling and freezing), and chemical. Investors can therefore invest in an established blue-chip with continuous growth and a shareholder-friendly dividend policy.

    Who can satisfy the enormous power demand of data centers and AI infrastructure? Microsoft and Meta have already demonstrated the possible direction forward: nuclear energy and so-called SMRs - small modular reactors. In the United States, there is no long-term alternative to nuclear power. On the other hand, hydrogen should not be underestimated. Plug Power and thyssenkrupp nucera are well-known industry representatives. First Hydrogen is pursuing exciting new approaches. The Canadians have the potential to shake up the industry. This could lead to a massive revaluation of the stock.

    The global economy is at a historic turning point in 2026. The forced shift away from fossil fuels is catapulting green technologies into a new dimension. Driven by regulatory hammer blows from Brussels and exploding investments worth billions, the decarbonization of heavy-duty transport and the hype surrounding hydrogen are colliding to create a perfect storm for investors. While battery-electric trucks are already conquering short distances, a race between systems is emerging in long-distance transport, in which only the technology with the best infrastructure can win. The following article highlights how Plug Power, Pure One, and Daimler Truck are shaping this battle for supremacy.

    TeamViewer is heading downward in 2026. The software company's shares are trading at an all-time low and are threatening to slip below the EUR 5 mark. So is now the time to get in? In contrast, dynaCERT shares could be on the verge of multiplying in value. However, that would require an operational breakthrough. According to the company's outlook for 2026, this scenario appears entirely possible, as is a revaluation. Steyr Motors shares underwent a revaluation last year. This needs to be underpinned by significantly higher revenue and profits in the current year. Analysts remain bullish on the defense stock.
