Deutsche Rohstoff, K+S, Royal Dutch Shell - Where to invest as fund managers cut equity exposure?
A look at the Global Fund Manager Survey conducted by Bank of America shows the views of Fund managers have changed significantly in the past month. Only 27% now expect the global economy to be strong, compared with almost twice as much optimism the previous month. One reason is the expectation that the FED will noticeably turn off its monetary tap at the end of the year. The money glut has sparked inflation, which can be seen clearly in commodity prices. All these are reasons why the cash quota in the funds is being increased, and the equity quota decreased. The high commodity prices are benefiting commodity producers in particular, which is why we are looking at three companies from this sector today.

Barrick Gold, Desert Gold, K+S - Dark clouds everywhere?
Since the publication of the July minutes of the FED meeting, the indices have been going down. Investors do not like that the minutes held out the prospect of a possible end to the financial stimulus at the end of the year. The inflation rate in the US was 5.4%, as in the previous month, and currently remains high. Following the port closure in China, it can be assumed that supply chains will continue to be disrupted. In addition, the Delta variant is causing rising incidences. Therefore, the market is currently nervous and anticipates a possible correction. Gold is still popular as an inflation hedge. We look at three companies today and see if dark clouds are gathering there too.

Barrick Gold, Triumph Gold, K+S: Here comes inflation insurance
Inflation remains an issue, but the major central banks have not yet curtailed expansionary measures. As a result, there is an increasing risk that price increases will develop their own momentum and become inflation. Although inflation is a signal of a booming economy, sharply rising producer prices are already causing long faces at some industrial companies - after all, margins are shrinking as a result. Reason enough to look at insurances against inflation. We present three companies.

Blackrock Silver, K+S, Barrick Gold - China first!
The Chinese government is demonstrating with all its might who has the last word. The regulation of industries and business models, which, as recently seen in the Chinese education sector, destroys the existence of companies and has weighed heavily on Chinese stocks in recent days. If the situation continues to escalate, it could easily negatively color the world's stock markets' mood. That is when it is worth looking at precious metals stocks, as they usually benefit disproportionately from rising commodity prices in times of crisis. Who will come out on top?

K+S, Silver Viper Minerals, First Majestic Silver - Something is happening here!
Whereas in the past central banks were quick to stop rising inflation through a restrictive monetary policy, this has now changed fundamentally. In fact, this is the hour of precious metals. Nevertheless, silver, a precious metal that is becoming increasingly important in industry, has been fluctuating between USD 20 and USD 30 for the past year. Below are three papers that can be used to take advantage of the cyclicality in the commodities sector.

GSP Resource, Steinhoff, K+S - Commodities, gambler stocks and traditional companies
Commodities have had a hard time finding lovers in recent years, and when the oil price turned negative in the wake of the Corona Crisis, hardly anyone would have expected such a revival. Despite the crisis, almost all commodity prices exploded. Another trend emerged as a result of the pandemic - the so-called meme stocks, where private investors meet on Reddit and pick a stock to buy, no matter what the fundamentals say. Traditional companies didn't have it easy during the crisis either, and many found that their business models were not crisis-proof. Today we have picked out three stocks that belong to the above mentioned divisions.

K+S, Theta Gold Mines, Varta - Explosion in construction materials and raw materials!
The price rally in essential commodities continues. An acute shortage of building materials has caused some sharp price increases on construction sites. As reported by the Federal Statistical Office, in May 2021, solid structural timber increased in price by 83.3% year-on-year, roof battens by 45.7% and structural timber by 38.4%. The increased prices of wood and steel and industrial metal are driving up construction costs: reinforcing steel in bars was 44.3% more expensive in May 2021, and reinforcing steel mesh cost 30.4% more than a year ago. The main reasons for the rising lumber and steel prices are likely to be rising demand at home and abroad during the Corona pandemic and problems in the supply of raw materials. By comparison, the producer price index of industrial products rose 7.2% over the same period - the most significant monthly increase in 25 years. Who are the beneficiaries of the shortage rally?

Almonty Industries, K+S, Airbus - Rising demand will be reflected in share price increases!
The metal tungsten has special properties that make it unique as a material. The metal is highly resistant to corrosion, as heavy as gold and, as tungsten carbide, as hard as diamond. In addition, at 3,422 degrees Celsius, it has the highest melting point of all metals. However, processing it is expensive and time-consuming. At the moment, researchers in Karlsruhe are working on processing tungsten using 3D printing methods. Due to its unique properties, tungsten plays a vital role in high-temperature applications in energy and lighting technology and space travel and medical technology. How can investors profit from the rising demand? We will show you.

Blackrock Silver, JinkoSolar, K+S - Betting on the trend
Silver is not only in demand as a "crisis currency," but also from industry. The precious metal is characterized by several advantageous physical properties that make it extremely valuable for industrial use. For example, silver plays a major role in solar and battery production. As a result, the price of silver has already risen significantly in recent months. But what if the trend continues for longer?
