Uranium and defense – Rally expected in 2025! Renk, F3 Uranium, Hensoldt, Rheinmetall and thyssenkrupp in focus
After nearly 19% gains in 2024, many investors wonder whether such dream returns are repeatable in 2025. We believe so, although the growth will be selective. Stocks are no longer rising across the board; instead, they are rising due to their strength in the sectors or because of an extraordinary competitive position. Underperformers will still be abundant, and investors should, therefore, position their portfolios to weather the storm. There is a significant risk of a lower valuation in certain NASDAQ-listed stocks, which have already reached P/E ratios of over 40. One indicator of such exaggerations is the so-called Shiller P/E ratio. At 24.8, the MSCI World is currently well above its long-term average, mainly due to stocks in the technology and communications sectors, which are trading relatively well above their historical valuation median. The time has, therefore, come for a sector rotation – here are a few ideas.

Portfolio Rockets for 2025! Nel ASA, F3 Uranium, Renk, Rheinmetall and Hensoldt in focus
For many investors, this year's stock market felt like a warm rain. High-tech, AI, and defense stocks reached new all-time highs, thus gilding the returns of risk-conscious portfolios. However, even with the DAX 40 index constantly setting new all-time highs, there were only 34% winning stocks in Germany compared to 66% losing stocks. The market's rally has been highly selective, driven by just a few names. This makes it all the more important to identify dormant portfolio risks, regroup, and build a lineup poised to deliver strong returns in 2025. Here are some suggestions to consider.

Missiles for Russia! Returns lurk at thyssenkrupp, Rheinmetall, Almonty, Renk and Hensoldt?
Western missiles for Russia! A new escalation in the Ukraine conflict hits the trading floors of the stock markets, leading to significant losses for the DAX - dropping 400 points in just 24 hours. Portfolios now have to be quickly restructured as armaments are back in demand again. In addition, critical metals are also gaining traction because special elements such as tungsten are also needed to harden ammunition and military equipment. Those who pivot their portfolios swiftly could benefit from rapid revaluations.

Smartbroker Holding, First Hydrogen, Hensoldt - 3 Rebounders for the year-end sprint
The year 2024, a successful year on the stock market so far, is already in the home stretch. In particular, major indices such as the DAX, S&P 500, and Dow Jones have reached new historic highs and appear overbought at current levels. By contrast, opportunities are offered by the second tier of small and mid-caps, which are attracting attention with a successful turnaround story. Investors could seize the opportunity and switch from value to growth, as many undervalued gems are currently in play.

New DAX highs – are 100% gains still possible for Airbus, Rheinmetall, Almonty, or Hensoldt after the correction?
With a new all-time high of over 19,400 points, the DAX has now run very far. The drivers are the recent interest rate cuts by the central banks and hopes of an early change of government in Berlin. Despite the widespread euphoria, some top stocks have already corrected significantly. Possible peace negotiations in Ukraine initially pushed down the well-performing armaments stocks. However, with the renewed escalation of Russian attacks, these hopes have once again faded into the distance. As a result, defense stocks and tungsten supplier Almonty Industries are back in the spotlight. Strategic metals also remain on the shopping lists of Western nations, and the focus is now on securing the supply chains as best as possible. Where are the opportunities for investors?

Hensoldt AG, Almonty Industries, Vonovia - New opportunities after the crash
The past trading week was indeed quite a challenge. Uncertainty and high volatility dominated the global financial markets. Although share prices gradually recovered after Black Monday, it is still too early to sound the all-clear due to increasing geopolitical tensions and the unwinding of the global yen carry trade. Nevertheless, interesting entry opportunities have opened up for investors following the exaggerated price losses at many companies.

Trump shares: Airbus, Royal Helium, Hensoldt, and Rheinmetall appear systemically relevant, and Plug Power aims high!
The world seems to be coming apart at the seams! While the capital markets are skyrocketing, we find ourselves in the midst of several geopolitical conflicts and a brutalization of social conditions. In Saxony, poster-holders are being beaten up; in the US, presidential candidates are being shot at, and in Ukraine and the Middle East, there seems to be no end in sight to the warfare. No wonder the population's need for security is at an all-time high. This also drives up gold and Bitcoin, as political confidence is waning. Donald Trump may be a flamboyant and over-excited politician, but he is right when he says that the current situation is almost unbearable. He wants to invest a lot of money in security and get "his country" back on track. Strategically relevant shares remain in demand in this context. Here is a current selection!

Acute threat? Armaments and high-tech in the crosshairs: Aixtron, Almonty Industries, Rheinmetall and Hensoldt
The recent European elections have enabled the conservative camp to make significant gains. Undoubtedly, a whole bouquet of issues has led to the so-called "shift to the right". In times of war, however, the neutral observer may not be surprised that the self-proclaimed peace parties, represented by the colours red and green, have lost considerable ground. After all, the competence for peacemaking and security in Europe tends to be found in the conservative camp. The capital markets currently favour high-tech and armaments, orders are booming, and growth is assured for years to come. It is now crucial for stock market players to take a closer look at these sectors, as the high-yield performers of the first half of the year appear to be correcting more strongly. What will happen here in the medium term?

Armaments are becoming socially acceptable, and Hydrogen is finally turning! Rheinmetall, Hensoldt, dynaCERT, Nel ASA and Plug Power in focus!
Who would have thought armaments would become acceptable under a pacifist red-green government? Never before have the opportunities for German defense stocks been as great as they are now. This is because the significant increase in geopolitical conflicts has heightened the need for security in Central Europe. In addition, the EU wants to show its support for Ukraine against the aggressor Russia and is ordering substantial amounts of war materials. In contrast, hydrogen values have almost been forgotten in the last two years. But now, there could be a revival. We look at two sectors with different underlying conditions. Investors should sharpen their senses now!

Caution with Hensoldt and Siemens Energy? Record numbers for Saturn Oil + Gas!
The shares of Hensoldt and Siemens Energy are among the stars of the current year. However, analysts are advising caution with both. Although the order intake at Hensoldt is convincing, there are also disappointments. Analysts see a significant risk to Siemens Energy's share price, which is not mitigated by their intention to sell in India. In contrast, Saturn Oil & Gas' record figures for the first quarter are convincing and offer share price potential. With the latest takeover, the oil producer aims to move up into the league of mid-sized producers and, thus, into a new league. Analysts are likely to raise their estimates upward soon.
