Sell Varta shares? Positive news from JinkoSolar and Manuka Resources
Is the Varta share price party over again? The shares of the former German battery darling have gained around 30% in value over the past six months. But now analysts are advising to sell. JinkoSolar's management had hoped for more buying when it announced the dividend at the end of September. While this was not the case, shareholders can at least look forward to a payout next week. Manuka Resources is currently managing the balancing act between positive cash flows from the sale of gold and investments in resource expansion. The Company is sitting on another potential "treasure" with a project for battery metals. Is the share undervalued?

Attention: New battery technology in demand! Freyr Battery, Manuka Resources, Varta and IBU-tec in focus
Despite all ecological reservations, the electrified future is advancing. In an effort to combat climate change, politicians have decided on the complete electrification of the future. The plan to entirely displace fossil fuels will lead many countries into a new economic dimension that will outperform conventional economies for a long time. However, a beautiful, new world must be economically affordable. This requires significant technological advancement and a tremendous amount of money for the transformation; ideological thinking helps little in this regard. Central Europe, in particular, is an importer of raw materials and energy and is a long way from setting world-changing parameters. However, since everything has already been decided in Berlin, millions of batteries and stationary energy storage systems are now needed for the green transformation. The key here is access to the critical metals of the future. These strategic decisions are being evaluated in the stock market. It is worth doing the math.

Green Energy in Focus - Varta, Siemens Energy, Power Nickel and Nordex - Find the next 100% gainer now!
That was a significant turnaround. While the DAX 40 index stood at 14,650 points at the end of October, it started its year-end rally at the beginning of November. On Friday, the index even broke back above the crucial 15,300 mark. There are now technical resistances to watch for upward movement. In the Greentech sector, there was good news from the corporate side: Varta is optimistic about the next quarter, and Siemens Energy is up 40% in 5 trading days. The Power Nickel share has been strong all year, and what about Nordex? All these stocks have the potential for a 100% gain – the question is, which one will take off first?

Lithium: The million-ton question! BASF, Standard Lithium, Edison Lithium, Varta - The Top List for 2024
Lithium-ion batteries are the most widely used battery type for electric vehicles and stationary energy storage. Estimates vary widely, but by 2025, we will need between 500,000 and 850,000 thousand tons of lithium, but in 2022 only 130,000 tons were produced. Against the backdrop of continued high global demand for e-vehicles, many high-performance batteries will be needed. Four gigafactories are currently being built in Europe, and the demand seems enormous. Each auto manufacturer has its own sourcing strategy, but there is currently a problem on the supply side because not every raw material is easy to obtain. Lithium is one of the most essential raw material components of a battery, along with nickel, cobalt, graphite and copper. Prices across the battery segment are under pressure due to the approaching economic downturn. What should investors look out for now?

Varta, First Phosphate, Volkswagen AG - Great opportunities in bombed-out sectors
The current environment with a weak economy, fears of recession and continued high inflation is causing problems for capital-intensive companies in the renewable energy sector. Even the raw materials required for this sector have significantly deviated from their all-time highs achieved in 2021. However, there is no question that the future belongs to this sector. More important than ever for investors, however, is active stock picking.

First Phosphate, Volkswagen, Varta - Battle for battery raw materials picks up speed
The global demand for electric vehicles is steadily increasing, driving the need for battery raw materials. However, the battle for these coveted raw materials has political consequences, particularly concerning the strained relations between the US and China. The US has recognized that it is heavily dependent on China for access to key battery raw materials, which has led to tensions between the two countries. The US is working to reduce these dependencies. This is reason enough to examine three companies that rely on battery raw materials.

BYD unstoppable. Sell Varta shares? 200% with Almonty Industries?
Electromobility and the energy transition offer numerous investment opportunities along the value chain. Take BYD, for example. The Chinese company is increasingly becoming the e-car market leader. Could they soon even dethrone Tesla? That should make the stock interesting. And what about Varta? The battery manufacturer disappointed investors last year. Is the stock attractive now? Analysts continue to take a critical view of the Company. Almonty Industries is a different story. After the latest half-year figures, the experts at Sphene Capital advise buying. From 2024, sales and profits of the tungsten producer are expected to grow strongly. According to the analysts, the share could triple.

Turnaround cancelled? Where 100% is possible: Varta, BYD, Manuka Resources
When soccer players move to a better team, it usually comes with higher earnings. Sometimes, the training is more intense, and the tasks off the pitch are more extensive. It is no longer comparable to the idyllic life at their former club. Athletes are then faced with the question, "Give up or bite the bullet?" The situation is similar for battery pioneer Varta, which is implementing its e-car plans with Porsche, of all companies. The sports car manufacturer offers major growth opportunities but is also considered meticulous among engineers. We highlight Varta's stock, take a look at BYD and outline opportunities at a company many have never heard of!

The IAA is just around the corner, and e-mobility is faltering - Where is the super battery? BYD, Tesla, Varta and First Phosphate in focus
Professor Ferdinand Dudenhöffer sees electric mobility on the decline. Despite the EU's ban on internal combustion engines from 2035, the switch to electric drive will take even longer than expected. In a recent interview, he sees the declining subsidies as of September 1 of this year as a possible showstopper. The reason: most purchases of e-vehicles are tax-motivated, and the increased interest rates have made expensive electric cars less competitive in leasing models. In addition, there are the technical limitations in safety, range and operating time compared to the mature, fuel-efficient combustion vehicles. So the challenge is to invent clean, efficient and safe battery technology. Where are the opportunities in this highly dynamic industry?

Volkswagen, Altech Advanced Materials, Varta - The future is electric - who will benefit?
The future of mobility is rapidly moving towards electrification, with more and more vehicles on the road being powered by electric motors. The trend towards electrification is expected to intensify in the coming years, bringing numerous benefits such as improved energy efficiency and reduced environmental impact. Talk of an "electric future" is gaining momentum in this context. The combination of technological progress and growing environmental awareness makes it clear that the "electric future" is not just a vision, but rather an unstoppable development that will fundamentally change our understanding of mobility and sustainability. Which companies will profit from this transformation?
