New hydrogen hype in 2025? Nel ASA, thyssenkrupp nucera, Plug Power, and First Hydrogen
Is nuclear-based hydrogen fueling a comeback for the industry? The growing energy demand for AI and other technologies is straining electricity grids. Shares of First Hydrogen have surged 17% following its announcement to venture into small nuclear reactors for hydrogen production, yet the Company is still valued at less than CAD 20 million. Nel is to build a pilot plant in South Korea to produce hydrogen from surplus nuclear power. However, the valuation of the Norwegian company still seems too high. Plug Power shareholders might face turbulent times in the coming weeks as short-sellers position themselves. By contrast, thyssenkrupp nucera is recommended as a "Buy". Which hydrogen player will take off in 2025?

Rivian, First Hydrogen, Volkswagen AG – Expansion continues
In terms of sales, the automotive industry is the largest manufacturing sector and by far the most significant industrial sector in Germany. However, German carmakers are currently in crisis and unable to escape the negative headlines. They are falling behind, especially when it comes to vehicles with alternative drive systems. In recent years, companies excelling in this area have emerged, offering enormous potential for share price growth due to their promising future prospects.

Nel ASA, First Hydrogen, Volkswagen – Hydrogen could save the European automotive industry
The European automotive industry is at a crossroads: Amid the transition to zero-emission drivetrains and growing competitive pressure from China, manufacturers are looking for technological alternatives beyond battery-based solutions. Hydrogen propulsion could play a key role here. Particularly in applications such as heavy-duty commercial vehicles or long-distance mobility, hydrogen offers advantages that push BEVs (battery electric vehicles) to their limits. In addition, the technology enables a diversification of the European drive system landscape and reduces dependence on scarce raw materials such as lithium or cobalt.

Make Trump love hydrogen – why not? Nel, Plug Power, First Hydrogen, thyssenkrupp and nucera
- Even though Trump ignores or denies climate change, he has an advisory team focused on the future of the US. After all, the Republican Party wants to continue to govern even after the Donald era. However, the current election result is weighing on the entire green tech sector, so investors should selectively take advantage of the current sell-off. After all, the technologies will not disappear but continue to develop in the background. Hydrogen propulsion systems still play a niche role but could become more important due to technological advances and infrastructure investments. Their future depends heavily on how effectively renewable hydrogen can be produced and made available and how costs develop compared to other zero-emission technologies. First Hydrogen is demonstrating how the logistics and transportation sector could develop under the EU's "Net Zero 2050" target! Sentiment is low, so investors should switch in time to benefit from the impending rebound.

First Hydrogen, BYD, Porsche - Two newcomers challenge the old guard
Germany is establishing itself as a pioneer in hydrogen mobility with an ambitious 9,700 km hydrogen network and 17 specialized hydrogen centers. The Company First Hydrogen is taking advantage of this momentum and is positioning itself in the German market with its field-tested commercial vehicles at exactly the right time. With an impressive range of 630 km per tank fill and successful fleet trials in the UK, First Hydrogen is making strides. At the same time, Hungary is developing into a strategic hub of European e-mobility. With BYD and BMW setting up operations and the battery manufacturer CATL investing EUR 7.3 billion, a major center for electromobility is emerging here. Once the undisputed star in the automotive sky, Porsche is experiencing a decline in revenue of 5.2% to EUR 28.56 billion and is struggling with a falling operating return. The important Chinese market, particularly, is causing concern for the Stuttgart-based company, where sales figures fell by a third in the first half of the year.

Siemens Energy unstoppable! BYD in a trade war? First Hydrogen share set for a price jump?
More and more analysts are suggesting it might be time to sell Siemens Energy stock. After all, the share is one of the top performers this year, with a price gain of more than 200%. What are the arguments in favour of selling? In contrast, anti-cyclical investors could add First Hydrogen shares to their portfolios. With plans to roll out hydrogen solutions for commercial vehicles across Europe, First Hydrogen's stock appears to have stabilized and represents the new generation in the hydrogen sector. Meanwhile, BYD is growing strongly. The Chinese are aiming for an aggressive expansion in Europe, but what do the new punitive tariffs mean? Is a trade war looming?

Smartbroker Holding, First Hydrogen, Hensoldt - 3 Rebounders for the year-end sprint
The year 2024, a successful year on the stock market so far, is already in the home stretch. In particular, major indices such as the DAX, S&P 500, and Dow Jones have reached new historic highs and appear overbought at current levels. By contrast, opportunities are offered by the second tier of small and mid-caps, which are attracting attention with a successful turnaround story. Investors could seize the opportunity and switch from value to growth, as many undervalued gems are currently in play.

Hydrogen 3.0 is coming – Where to get on board now? Nel ASA, First Hydrogen, Plug Power, BYD, and BMW
Despite new highs in all major indices, hydrogen stocks are performing poorly. This is because preferences vary widely among countries in the global "net zero" discussion. Topics such as nuclear energy or even nuclear fusion are being discussed, while sales in the e-mobility sector are declining rather than increasing. Assuming that, at some point, the world will once again approach the issue of climate change with an open mind regarding technology, hydrogen technology has a clear place among the green alternative solutions. There is still a cost problem and a lack of courage to move forward faster. However, experienced stock market players know that after a 90% price loss, the sell-off will eventually end. The first signs are evident.

Plug Power, First Hydrogen, thyssenkrupp – Has the bottom been found?
The hydrogen industry could be on the verge of a significant upturn, as numerous positive developments and investments have recently occurred. The US government has taken significant steps to strengthen the hydrogen infrastructure by introducing seven Gigahub locations, which will benefit companies like Plug Power. In Germany, demand for green hydrogen is expected to increase rapidly, and thyssenkrupp plans to use it to produce green steel. In addition, companies in the logistics industry are considering strategic adjustments to better position themselves. Together with the global movement towards decarbonization, this creates exciting potential for this sector.

Volkswagen, First Hydrogen, Lufthansa – Future Technologies for Transport in Focus
The monumental task required to convert entire industries to renewable energies is clearly taking shape. This week, the who's who of the German automotive industry came together for a virtual auto summit. Volkswagen is sticking with hybrids, while politicians want to make the e-vehicle more appealing to citizens. However, the proper infrastructure is lacking. The future could look quite different for the hydrogen market. First Hydrogen is a commercial vehicle supplier that wants to revolutionize the logistics industry with its hydrogen van. The outstanding range of the so-called FCEV, reaching 650 km with only one refuelling, demonstrates that this technology can be far more promising than battery-electric vehicles. Lufthansa customers are realizing that environmental protection costs money. On the one hand, the Company wants to charge fuel surcharges in the freight business, and on the other hand, flight connections are to be reduced in order to withstand the price war with competitors. We provide the details.
