Meta Materials, BASF, Nvidia - Win with innovative companies in 2022!
The protection of intellectual property through patents is crucial for innovative companies. According to data from the DPMA (German Patent and Trademark Office), patent applications in artificial intelligence have recently risen sharply. Exciting developments are also taking place in materials management. New materials have a high disruptive potential.

BASF, Meta Materials, Siemens Gamesa - Significant acceleration
The stock market year 2021, an extremely successful one, is almost history. As expected, due to the Corona pandemic, vaccine manufacturers such as BioNTech, Moderna and Valneva are among the new stock market stars. In the technology sector, chip manufacturers such as Nvidia and AMD performed particularly well, boosted by the shortage of semiconductors. Which themes will dominate the coming stock market year? In addition to cloud computing and artificial intelligence, companies focusing on new materials essential for the future are likely to benefit.

Standard Lithium, Altech Advanced Materials, BASF - The super battery for 2022!
Whether e-mobility, aircraft technology or renewable energies, virtually all high-tech segments are looking for a suitable energy storage device. The development driver is climate protection, which will put mobility and energy generation and distribution on a new footing in the future. More environmentally friendly battery production processes are required to bring e-mobility to a level of efficiency similar to the most modern diesel technology, as well as a significant increase in performance with a simultaneous extension of service life. After all, what good is it if a vehicle eliminates emissions during operation but creates multiple pollutions during production and disposal of the energy cell? We highlight some of the companies at the heart of the technical revolution.

Daimler Truck, dynaCERT, BASF: Hydrogen powers depots
How sustainable is the German economy? As Handelsblatt recently wrote, key figures on climate damage are becoming increasingly important for investors. The newspaper lists all forty DAX companies according to their climate-warming potential. Right at the top are Linde, Volkswagen, Daimler incl. Daimler Truck and also BASF. At the other end of the ranking are SAP, Infineon and - somewhat surprisingly - E.ON. We take a closer look at two climate sinners and explain whether new technology can help these companies move forward.

BASF, Kodiak Copper, Salzgitter - Inflation stays longer
For the first time in almost 30 years, the German inflation rate rose above the 5% mark in November. According to an initial estimate by the Federal Statistical Office, goods and services cost 5.2% more than a year earlier. Energy and raw material prices, which have risen sharply, account for a major share of this increase. Given the increased demand for special materials to achieve the energy turnaround, the trend is likely to be confirmed in the coming years.

NIO, Defense Metals, BASF - Trade war with China
Didi Global's delisting on the New York Stock Exchange after less than six months of membership shows, on the one hand, the tremendous regulatory fury of the Chinese government, but on the other hand also the tensions between the USA and China. This trade war has been going on since 2018, and even the change in the US presidency has not brought any relief. At least both sides exchanged views in mid-November and do not want a cold war. China has also warned Europe against too much independence. However, since the Corona Crisis, it has become clear how dependent many countries are on China. A rethink is discernible, also because high container costs mean that imports are no longer profitable in some cases. Today we look at three companies that are at least indirectly affected by the trade dispute.

The battery solution: IBU-tec, Meta Materials, BASF - Materials that dreams are made of!
Whether e-mobility, aircraft technology or renewable energies, virtually all high-tech segments of industry require raw materials and processed materials in ever-increasing quantities. Currently, the problem lies in procurement, which is driving prices to unexpected highs. The tonnages relevant for 2022 and subsequent years can hardly be mined in the mines currently in production. Many projects in this area are only at the beginning of development or are already operating at their limits. Politicians are trying to create a certain degree of planning security for the domestic industry through long-term supply agreements with partner countries. For us, this is a reason to take a look at well-known high-tech material producers.

BASF, Osino Resources, Standard Lithium - Why does nobody believe it?
Since inflation rates have been growing, central banks have placated that price increases would only be temporary and would level off next year due to the recovery after the Corona lockdowns. Therefore, an interest rate hike is far from an issue; only the pumping of unlimited money into the capital market is to be slowed down to a snail's pace. If the high inflation rates prove permanent, only one thing will help - the flight into gold.

BASF, Royal Helium, Linde: This market is at the very beginning
Industrial gases are in demand - and expensive. Even gases such as Helium are not immune to price increases. Chemical giant BASF calls the noble gas valuable in a press release and, together with Linde, presented a process that can be used to extract Helium from natural gas production. In other regions, the extraction of Helium, which is used in medical devices and chip production, even succeeds independently of by-products - given the long-term dwindling production of fossil fuels, this is becoming increasingly important. We present three stocks.

BASF, dynaCERT, Nikola - These shares will be exciting
From today until November 12, all eyes are on the UN Climate Change Conference COP26 in Glasgow. Nothing less than the future of our planet and a trend reversal towards a climate-neutral economy are at stake. At the top of the agenda is the commitment of countries to reduce emissions. A company that has received little attention in the recent past is waiting in the wings with its patented technology and could soon take off. Be prepared.
