Attention in the battery sector: Varta in sellout, Mercedes, Power Nickel and IBU-tec with good prospects!
What a debacle for Varta! While many manufacturers worldwide are looking for clean battery solutions, things continue to go downhill for the company in Ellwangen. The linchpin of mobile electrification is the development of a super battery. The conventional battery market is dominated by the Chinese group CATL with a 38% share, followed by BYD. But there are also many smaller technology companies in Germany, such as Altech Advanced Materials and IBU-Tec, that are getting involved in the battery market. We go in search of sector highlights.

Security of supply? More and more commodity deals are wobbling: Lynas Rare Earths, Power Nickel, Volkswagen
Critical raw materials, such as lithium, rare earths and nickel, are indispensable for the desired mobility and heat transition. But which companies can secure the raw materials now in demand? And which mining regions are suitable? Recently, producing countries have become more and more self-confident - reason enough for investors to turn to safe mining regions.

Inflation picks up again! Here is what the figures mean for Mercedes-Benz, Power Nickel and Varta
Inflation rates in the US remain high. Consumer prices rose more than expected in January. For investors, this has several meanings: On the one hand, the spectre of recession is likely to have been dispelled; on the other hand, the US Federal Reserve could continue to turn the interest rate screw. What does this mean for innovative companies involved in the mega-trend of electrification? We provide the answers!

BYD, Power Nickel and Infineon - News drives share prices
The events are overlapping. In addition to the daily geopolitical news, the central banks are in the spotlight these days. Despite a further interest rate step, the FED sent positive signals to the capital market because the end of the strict monetary policy is approaching. In addition, the reporting season started, which could offer several surprises already at the start. After the price corrections, many companies have opportunities for a sustainable rebound.

Take cover - Tesla reports figures today! BYD, NIO, Power Nickel, BASF: Here we go with e-mobility!
The tension is rising. How will the annual figures of the industry leader in e-mobility, Tesla, really turn out now? By the end of 2022, there was a 70% slump in the share, and Elon Musk, the founder, had USD 100 billion less in the account within 8 weeks. He himself was to blame because in order to finance the Twitter takeover, he had to part with Tesla shares. For the year 2023, we are now interested in the expectations that will be placed on e-mobility. The fact is that many countries, including Germany, are now gradually withdrawing subsidies. So the new mobility must now learn to walk by itself. Where are the opportunities for investors?

Apple, Power Nickel, Volkswagen - New flights of fancy due to lithium resources
Apple shines with its new Mac Mini. Gone are the days of Intel processors. With their in-house M2 chips, a new consumer group of young creatives such as influencers, podcasters and other media professionals have an entry-level model at a fair price. No wonder the demand for metals like lithium is multiplying. The Canadian company Power Nickel can make excellent use of this boom. In its current drilling program, the results indicate high nickel deposits. This raw material is also of particular interest to Volkswagen. The group wants to invest in Canadian mines and is building six battery plants to produce and equip its EVs.

E-mobility - is it all over? BYD, Power Nickel, Varta
"E-cars will disappear just as quickly as they came." Boom! This statement by Georg Brasseur, emeritus professor of Institute of Electrical Measurement and Sensor Systems at Graz University of Technology, is currently making waves. But what drives the retired scientist to make this statement? And what are the consequences for the battery industry and investors? We shed some light on the matter - and even point out opportunities.

Power Nickel, American Lithium, Cameco - Last chance before new wave?
The climate targets have been set, and the energy turnaround must be achieved. After the escalation of the conflict in Eastern Europe, the future must become green even faster to escape dependence on Russian oil and gas. Decarbonization is to succeed alongside the electrification of transport and the significant expansion of renewable energies. To date, it has yet to be precisely analyzed where the required industrial metals and raw materials are to come from. A shortage and, thus, sharply rising prices are pre-programmed. Producers of critical goods, especially from the West, are the clear beneficiaries.

Power Nickel, Rock Tech Lithium, BYD - Race to secure critical raw materials
Since the major car manufacturers decided to equip their cars with electric drives, the demand for certain raw materials has skyrocketed. The result has been a sharp rise in prices. Some of the most important raw materials needed for the production of electric cars include lithium, cobalt and nickel. At the G20 summit in Bali, Indonesia, the world's largest nickel producer proposed to the Canadians that they set up an organization similar to OPEC for nickel. Such moves are a sign that the battle for key EV commodities is growing. So today, we look at one nickel and one lithium company and see how the battery and electric car maker BYD is positioning itself.
