Discount battle over: Commodities on the counter-offensive! Rheinmetall, Power Nickel, BASF and Varta in focus
Since the bombing of Israel by Iran, the clocks are ticking differently in the Middle East. The next stage of escalation has been reached. If Israel now uses the right to defense as an opportunity to initiate something bigger, it is here: the conflagration. Gold and silver are shining as safe-haven currencies and pulling long-neglected commodity shares through the roof. Now is the time to keep the sails in the wind and ride the long-awaited upward momentum. In the energy transition, strategically safer jurisdictions that can safely serve the growing hunger for commodities are still in demand. We highlight a few opportunities.

Innovation made in Europe: Singulus Technologies, Siemens Energy, BASF - which share offers the greatest potential?
Companies in Europe, like Singulus Technologies, are leaders in the production of surface materials in future-oriented sectors such as photovoltaics, semiconductors, medical technology and cosmetics. This is reason enough to take a closer look at Europe as a location. The European Commission is determined to push ahead with CO₂ reduction with all its might and subsidize future energies. They would prefer to lock out Chinese companies that produce solar and wind turbines more cost-effectively than Siemens Energy. However, China is also an excellent place to do business. Chemical giant BASF strategically adheres to long-term contracts, in line with the Chinese strategist Sun Tzu. Which share offers the greatest potential for investors?

+100% and more with momentum stocks: AIXTRON, BASF, Exasol
Surprise! BASF shares have gained around 25% since mid-January. And the momentum could continue. Analysts see further upside potential. But there are also skeptical voices. In contrast, the Exasol share has only just taken off. The German AI hopeful has reported orders, the share has left the downward trend, and management is buying. Analysts believe the share could perform by more than 100%. At least it is certainly not expensive. Investors in AIXTRON are still waiting for the upward trend. Speculation has stalled the share price recovery for the time being. However, there are also optimistic voices from analysts.

BASF shares on the upswing, BioNTech sees breakthrough in cancer, and Defence Therapeutics benefits from study
Can BASF shareholders look forward to better times? One analyst is certainly hopeful. He believes that the chemical industry will recover in 2024. However, the price target gives pause for thought. The development of cervical cancer is also concerning. According to a new study, the number of cases has risen sharply in recent years, and with it, HPV infections. Accordingly, more HPV vaccines are urgently needed. The market volume is expected to more than double to over USD 15 billion in just a few years. Defence Therapeutics aims to become a profiteer. The biotech company is fighting cancer with its Accum™ platform. BioNTech CEO Ugur Sahin also believes that humanity will get cancer under control, thanks in part to artificial intelligence. The Company is currently working on 30 cancer therapies. Is it a good time to invest now?

BASF, Desert Gold, PayPal: Creating growth and value with the circular economy
BASF and Iveco are planning a partnership for the battery recycling of electric vehicles. This will fill a gaping hole in the economic cycle of e-mobility. Raw materials such as lithium and gold are only available in limited quantities and are increasing in value. The explorer company Desert Gold Ventures stands out in the robust precious metals business with promising gold projects in Africa. The Desert Gold Venture site holds mineral resources of 8.47 million tons, with a gold content of 1.14 g/t, equivalent to 310,300 ounces. Gold is mainly used in the jewellery industry. Digital payments have now established themselves as a currency. In this industry, the new PayPal CEO, Alex Chriss, is leading the technology platform into the next growth phase with a strongly customer-oriented strategy. The upcoming financial results on February 7 could provide new impetus for investors. Three industries, three perspectives - BASF, Desert Gold and PayPal offer different opportunities for investors seeking innovative growth and value preservation.

More than 100% upside potential - Buy recommendations for BASF, Evotec and Saturn Oil + Gas
After the price slide of recent weeks, Evotec shares appear to be ripe for a countermovement. In a conference call, the Company attempted to provide clarification and seems to have convinced analysts. Expert opinions on BASF are divided. Has the bottom been reached after the preliminary figures? At least the dividend yield of 8% is attractive. Investors are also anticipating a high dividend from Saturn Oil & Gas soon. Analysts see more than 100% upside potential in the shares of the junior oil producer. The valuation is significantly lower than the peer group. The Canadian company will significantly reduce its debt in the current year, making the share increasingly attractive in terms of free cash flow and enterprise value. The latest drilling program has also produced strong results.

BASF, Manuka Resources, Lynas - Corrections offer long-term opportunities
A "supercycle" is defined as an extended period in which the demand for certain goods exceeds the available supply. In the long term, this leads to a steadily growing supply gap and, thus, to sharply rising prices. In our current situation, where independence from countries like China and Russia is also sought, critical raw materials such as copper, vanadium and rare earth metals will become increasingly scarce over the next few years due to demand resulting from the energy transition. The current correction in these underlying stocks should, therefore, offer a long-term opportunity.

Forward into the Future of Energy: Investing strategically with BASF, Blackrock Silver and JinkoSolar
At BASF, CEO Martin Brudermüller will hand over the chairmanship of the Board of Executive Directors to Markus Kamieth after the Annual General Meeting in April 2024. The Company is facing challenges in the global energy market due to its long dependence on Russian gas. Kamieth has extensive experience in Asian business and navigates diplomacy between the Far East and the West. Those who prefer to invest directly in commodities will find what they are looking for at Blackrock Silver. It is a promising explorer focusing on gold, silver and lithium, making it an attractive option for investors. With successful drilling and an impressive track record in the US state of Nevada, the Company has already achieved success. Pioneers in RE technology can be found in the Chinese market in particular. The abundance of raw materials in the country plays a decisive role here. JinkoSolar, for instance, focuses on intelligent energy storage solutions in China. The recently implemented 42 MWh storage system in Yunnan, China, demonstrates technological innovation, especially in grid expansion and network security. Given China's focus on renewable energies, BASF's focus on Asia and the increasing demand for sought-after raw materials, investors should keep a close eye on these developments - further details in this article.

Climate Conference and Nel disappoint. BASF and Saturn Oil + Gas shares recommended as Buy
The World Climate Conference has disappointed - at least for anyone who had hoped for a clear stance on the end of fossil fuels. Negotiations on the final declaration took place throughout the night in Dubai. The result is sobering. The farewell to fossil fuels is only vaguely described. It has become clear in recent weeks that fossil fuels are here to stay for the foreseeable future and that their lobby is strong. Instead of new impetus, shareholders of Nel ASA received further bad news. The hydrogen pioneer had to announce the cancellation of a major order. And that is not all. BASF, on the other hand, has a tailwind. The share has been upgraded from "Sell" to "Buy". Analysts see more than 200% upside potential for Saturn Oil & Gas. The high cash flow enables the oil producer to expand production and reduce debt.
