Running out of fuel? BYD, Porsche, VW, Globex Mining - Metals in demand!

  • Mining
  • Gold
  • Silver
  • Commodities
  • Electromobility
  • Metals

In benchmarking, anyone who sees electromobility at the forefront cannot ignore a powerful battery. In the last 3 years, there have been no real leaps forward in development, but at least power compression in lithium-ion technology achieved a doubling of the range and, in parallel, also lowered the previously long charging times. This made an electric vehicle suitable for long-distance travel for the first time, even though faster discharge must be expected in winter due to non-engine services such as heating. But technological development continues, and BYD, as one of the world market leaders, sets technological standards. Which stocks are the favourites in the sector?

German industry at a crossroads: Volkswagen, Altech Advanced Materials, BASF

  • Batteries
  • Investments
  • Technology

There was often talk of the end of German industry last year. But fortunately, gas supplies did not run out, and many companies showed themselves to be extremely robust in their quarterly figures. Nevertheless, many companies, too, are facing difficult decisions. We look at what is at stake and what this may mean for investors.

Rare earths are increasingly important: Rheinmetall, Defense Metals, Volkswagen

  • Mining
  • Tungsten
  • RareEarths
  • Electromobility

Der Spiegel, Die Welt, Münchner Merkur - in the past week alone, many media reported on the role of rare earths in the energy transition. The conclusion everywhere: rare earths are not rare but urgently needed. Mining sites, therefore, urgently need to be developed - ideally in a sustainable and environmentally friendly way. We focus on three companies in urgent need of rare earths or considered up-and-coming producers.

Altech Advanced Materials, Volkswagen, BASF - Innovative strength pushes growth

  • Technology
  • Innovations
  • Electromobility
  • chemicals

In the hunt for the precious raw materials needed for the energy transition, carmaker Volkswagen now has Canada on its radar. There, the Company wants to extract the lithium it so urgently needs for electric batteries. The Company would do well to reorganize its supply chains, and the EU is pushing for a CO2-friendly transformation of the automotive industry. The Company Altech Advanced Materials promises a higher performance of electric batteries. Its innovative technology allows electric batteries to perform better, which is ideal for the energy turnaround demanded by politicians. Chemical giant BASF is experiencing that politics cannot always be to the advantage of its own company. Once again, it is the EU that wants to ban a product...

Almonty Industries, ThyssenKrupp, Volkswagen - Tungsten: The raw material for high-tech applications!

  • Mining
  • Tungsten
  • hightech
  • Electromobility

Tungsten is a rare and valuable metal with a high melting point, hardness, corrosion resistance and good electrical and thermal conductivity. It is widely used in industry, national defence and high-tech applications. An important use of tungsten is in alloys, especially steel, where it increases the melting point, hardness and wear resistance. Now applications could be expanded even further. Researchers have developed a cathode material made from a molybdenum tungsten niobate alloy that can be used to charge electric cars in minutes.

First Hydrogen Corp., Volkswagen, Mercedes-Benz Group - Hydrogen or electric drive, who will win the race in Automotive?

  • Hydrogen
  • fuelcell
  • Electromobility

Europe is gearing up for a zero-emission sweeping blow. Volkswagen and the Mercedes-Benz Group, two globally producing automotive groups, are launching the electric initiative to say goodbye to the combustion engine quickly. The Canadian company First Hydrogen Corp., on the other hand, is benefiting from its own agility and, together with its strong cooperation partners, is already in the test phase for hydrogen-powered vans on British roads. Its USP is the 360-degree solution for fleet operators. Hydrogen is ahead of battery-powered electric vehicles in terms of range - who will win the race for CO2-free powertrains in Europe?

Tesla share continues to crash! Volkswagen, BYD, Kodiak Copper, Mercedes - E-mobility in distress?

  • Mining
  • Copper
  • Electromobility
  • Gold

E-mobiles still account for a single-digit percentage of all vehicles worldwide, but the growth trends speak a clear language: the world will electrify in mobility! Anyone following the price of copper should note one important point - copper is an important industrial metal that is not only used in cars. The biggest consumers are the construction and infrastructure industries. And these sectors are suffering from extreme inflation, high interest rates and the resulting economic decline in demand. For the copper price, of course, this also means no exuberant scarcity at present, and thus falling prices from around USD 5.00 to currently around USD 3.80 per pound. So, as with all commodities, timing in the economic cycle is the key determinant of investment success. Which stocks are in focus now?

Desert Gold Ventures, Amazon, Volkswagen - Commodities in hot demand, while big tech and Automotive in a nosedive

  • Mining
  • Gold
  • bigtech
  • Automotive

The new stock market year is starting with a strong pole position for commodities and companies like Desert Gold Ventures, which is looking for gold in Mali. Mali is the third-largest gold-producing country in the world. Desert Gold Ventures' 'SMSZ Project' already surrounds 6 active gold mines, and drilling for 2023 is secured. Things remain shaky for big tech companies like Amazon and automotive like Volkswagen. Can the past Christmas sales bring Amazon's once largest pillar back into the black? Will the Wolfsburg-based company recapture its market power through restructuring in procurement?
