Barrick Gold, Barsele Minerals, BASF - Investing in scarcity: 3 B-shares with potential
The risks on the capital markets are increasing, as can be seen in the volatility indices. They were around 18 before the invasion of Ukraine and rose to over 35 by mid-March. The volatility index measures the range of fluctuation expected by the futures markets in the coming months. If we follow this indication, we could still be in for a tough summer. Possibly significantly lower again but, with the desired political easing, also a little upward similarly. However, investors need to be aware of the exploding inflation, the tight commodity markets and the supply chain problem. These are ongoing issues that will not pass anytime soon. The following values could provide some stability.

Barrick Gold, Ximen Mining, First Majestic Silver - Do precious metal stocks belong in the portfolio now?
Crises like the current Ukraine war or the steadily rising inflation are good for precious metals like gold and silver. According to the German Association for Precious Metals, demand for physical precious metals increased by at least 25% in the first three months of this year. Demand had already climbed by 31% last year. But not everyone can store precious metals safely. The alternative is to invest in precious metals companies listed on the stock exchange. We take a closer look at three candidates today.

Newmont, MAS Gold, Barrick Gold - This will be the hard currency
Precious metals lived up to their name as a crisis currency when the Russian army invaded Ukraine at the end of February. Gold rose by almost 10% in the first rush and marked a new high at USD 2,070.18 per ounce. Only USD 4 was missing to climb to a new all-time high in the current world reserve currency, the US dollar. Since then, the yellow metal has been correcting, but new highs should only be a matter of time in the long term. The importance of gold can currently be seen due to geopolitical tensions. The chairman of the Russian Energy Commission, Pavel Zavalny, proposed to pay for Russian oil and gas in "hard currency", i.e. in gold.

K+S, Almonty Industries, Barrick - Full speed ahead!
Across the board, commodity prices are going through the roof. Consumers and industry are already feeling the effects. Some price increases will only hit consumers with a time lag. Inflation, which recently rose above 7% in Germany, appears far from having reached its peak. The beneficiaries of the supply shortage are raw material producers. Their profitability and company valuations should continue to rise.

TUI, ThyssenKrupp, Desert Gold, Barrick Gold - Shares with 100% turnaround potential!
The armed conflict in Ukraine continues to drive inflation. In the US, inflation was recently reported at plus 7.9%, and the yield on the 30-year government bond rose above the magic 2.5% mark last week. For market experts, this heralds the long-term turnaround in interest rates. The Federal Reserve also sees the need for further interest rate steps to ensure monetary stability. These are conceivably bad conditions for the economy because the supply chain issue has already caused growth rates to plummet. Some economists see a slump in the western industrial nations of 4-6% as possible. For precious metals, this recession scenario could be the turning point. We select some promising stocks.

Shares between expropriation and the new era: Barrick Gold, Triumph Gold, Alibaba
Goldman Sachs has always been considered well-informed and well-connected in investor circles. Even if sometimes a little too much is read into the forecasts of the US bankers, investors should take note of them. Currently, Jeff Currie, commodity specialist at Goldman Sachs, assumes a "perfect upswing" for gold. The price target could be USD 2,500. Goldman sees the precious metal as the "currency of last resort" and points to rising ETF purchases and increasing demand from central banks. We take a look at three stocks and their prospects.

Newmont, Ximen Mining, Barrick Gold - Deceptive calm
Hopes of an imminent end to the war in Ukraine are causing the stock markets to turn upward again. The German stock market barometer DAX climbed above the psychologically important mark of 14,000 points. In contrast, the precious metals gold and silver, known as crisis currencies, came under heavy pressure. The various types of oil also lost a disproportionate amount of value, falling by more than 3%. The question is now whether the calming is only a flash in the pan or whether a new buying window will open in the short term, especially for the precious metals.

K+S, Phoenix Copper, Barrick Gold - Commodities as portfolio boosters
Prices for raw materials went through the roof last year. On the one hand, the global economy recovered faster than expected. On the other hand, demand for copper increased significantly, especially due to the turnaround in the automotive industry. Now, raw materials are becoming scarce again, as Russia is partially eliminated as an exporter of raw materials. It means that supply is lagging behind demand and resulting in rising prices. Especially for oil, gas and wheat, supply is expected to tighten significantly. Today we present three exciting commodity companies that could benefit from the crisis.

K+S, Globex Mining, Barrick Gold - On the road to success
The stock markets will certainly remain nervous for some time to come given the war in Ukraine and Putin's threatening nuclear gestures. But where there is uncertainty and risks, there are also opportunities. The big picture favors commodity investments: precious metals as a crisis currency, battery metals with high demand due to the energy transition, and agricultural commodities. We take a look at shares that offer good opportunities.

Gazprom, BP, Barrick Gold, Ximen Mining - Putin's Ukraine conflict boosts gold and silver!
Over the weekend, the buzzword "mobilization of nuclear weapons" was heard in the media. In the ears of investors, the loud saber-rattling sounded like the starting signal for a gold and silver rally. Events then rolled over in sequence: Russian accounts were frozen, the SWIFT system was disconnected, and there were likely payment difficulties at Sberbank. The sponsorship contract with Gazprom was terminated by Schalke 04 without notice. In this country, people are wondering what medium-term effects the Russian crisis will have on society, the relationship with Russia in general, and the economy. In this context, we are watching a few interesting stocks.
