Volkswagen, ARI Motors, BYD – Electric vehicles in the fast lane: Time to invest
The automotive industry is undergoing a period of profound upheaval that is shaking established structures. While electric vehicles are breaking new records worldwide, the European and American markets are faltering – a development forcing manufacturers like Volkswagen to make strategic changes. At the same time, Chinese players such as BYD are setting new standards with their dynamism and innovative strength. However, it is about more than just drives: software, networking, and digital sales concepts are revolutionizing the industry. We take a look at three companies that could be worth investing in.

Mercedes-Benz, 123fahrschule, BYD – Between crisis and recovery
Electromobility in Germany is in crisis, while other markets, especially China, are experiencing strong growth. In 2024, new registrations of electric vehicles in Germany have fallen by more than 26%. The reasons for this include the phasing out of state subsidies, high costs, and a limited range of affordable models. Despite this, demand for driving licenses is growing in Germany – a sign of an increasing need for individual mobility despite high costs. The Chinese market is showing enormous momentum, with electric and plug-in hybrids accounting for over 50% of the market, supported by price reductions and political incentives. We take a look at two leading vehicle manufacturers and how 123fahrschule can benefit from the driving license boom.

BUYING OPPORTUNITY in gold and billion-dollar investment: Barrick Gold, Thunder Gold, BYD
The price of gold is consolidating, the major gold producers are weakening and they could soon be forced into takeovers. This presents investors with an interesting buying opportunity with promising gold explorers. One of these takeover candidates is Thunder Gold. The Company has a highly promising project in Canada with excellent infrastructure and outstanding resources, which could soon increase further. Then a big player like Barrick Gold could strike. The second-largest gold producer has missed analyst estimates and could keep investors interested through acquisitions. The mood of German automakers is unlikely to improve when they look at BYD. The Chinese are currently celebrating a milestone and announcing a billion-dollar investment program for the integration of artificial intelligence. Should one take advantage of the buying opportunity now?

Uncertainty, volatility and BTC at USD 100,000? The stock checklist with BYD, VW, 123fahrschule and Mercedes
Donald Trump is moving back into the White House. Investors took the election result as an opportunity to stage a celebration on the US stock market. The major indices recorded a full 10% increase, and the US dollar strengthened significantly. Trump stands for fossil fuels, nuclear power and armaments. He dismisses climate change and the Paris Agreement and will not invest any further funds in the energy transition. This is a warning sign for the European economy because local governments are pursuing a "net zero" target for 2045, and their efforts are globally losing ground. High costs are squeezing the margins of local corporations, whereas US companies and Asian firms are doing brilliantly. For investors, there are many opportunities and timing is more important than ever. We have done the math.

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.

Traffic light disaster brings new opportunities for e-mobility: VW, BMW, ARI Motors, BYD and NIO
The traffic light coalition has broken down – so right before left applies! In addition to the Berlin disaster, a relentless struggle has long since broken out in the automotive market. Habeck, for example, wants to get the environmental subsidy back in 2025 due to a sharp drop in electric vehicle sales, while important market shares of German industry have long since been lost. Germany is making only hesitant progress in the area of energy transition, while nuclear energy is experiencing a renaissance worldwide. Fortunately, innovative concepts are repeatedly emerging from medium-sized companies, driving Germany forward as a business location. With a new, forward-looking industrial policy, Germany could regain its leading position. For dynamic investors, this is an explosive environment with extraordinary opportunities for high returns.

Trump triumphs! What happens now with gold, e-mobility and green tech? BYD, VW, Thunder Gold, Nel, and Plug Power in focus
The US election is over. Donald Trump is moving back into the White House. Along with a tougher stance on China, conservative voters in the US are hoping for a greater focus on their own country. America needs a complete renewal of its infrastructure and will push ahead with armaments, so commodities of all kinds will come into focus. For Europe, the degree of responsibility for its own affairs will increase significantly, and the development of stable supply chains is imperative. Trump supports Bitcoin, so gold may have to give up some of its recent gains. What are the yield or loss drivers for investors now? After the election, investors should separate the wheat from the chaff to ensure their portfolios are properly positioned.

Soaring share prices, battery revolution, sales record! BYD, Plug Power and Altech Advanced Materials shares!
Altech Advanced Materials is getting ever closer to the battery revolution. And it is all happening in Germany! The prototype of their revolutionary solid-state battery is operational, and there is an initial declaration of intent in the three-digit million-euro range. The Company is valued at around EUR 25 million, providing solid reasons for a potential rapid 50% price increase. Meanwhile, Plug Power's stock has shot up a good 20% since Friday. Is this just a blip, or is there more to it for the former hydrogen high-flyer? In any case, Plug shareholders should be cautious next week. There is also a lot to be said for rising prices at BYD. The Chinese electric carmaker is in a thrilling race with Tesla for industry leadership, and analysts are forecasting over a 20% upside potential.

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?

BYD, Altech Advanced Materials, JinkoSolar – Better batteries are key to a green revolution
Batteries are essential to the future of electrification. However, both technologies need to be improved in terms of performance and safety. EV batteries require higher energy density for better range and lighter weight, with technologies such as solid-state batteries that could reduce the risk of overheating and fire. On the energy storage side, long-lasting, environmentally friendly solutions are needed to balance out fluctuations in renewable energies and ensure grid stability. Innovative approaches in both areas are crucial to making e-mobility sustainable, high-performance, and safe.
