The Energy Sector Boom Is Boosting Critical Metals: Siemens Energy, Nel ASA, Globex Mining, and Nordex in the Spotlight
The world is changing rapidly! The escalating crisis in the Middle East highlights the acute vulnerability of global commodity supply chains and is forcing Western industrialized nations to undergo a radical geopolitical realignment. To free themselves from dependence on unstable regions and autocratic monopolies, the US and Canada are investing heavily in the accelerated development of self-sufficient North American supply chains for critical minerals and precious metals. This development is receiving an additional regulatory boost from the protectionist economic policies of a second Trump administration—under the slogan "Drill, Baby, Drill"—and is creating a boom for resource-rich areas of North America, such as the Abitibi Belt in Québec. In this highly volatile market environment, Globex Mining, a licensing specialist that consistently operates behind the scenes, is emerging as one of the biggest beneficiaries of recent times. While partner companies finance the capital-intensive drilling operations, the company risk-free acquires valuable smelting licenses and positions itself perfectly for the energy transition that will shape the future. For investors, the North American renaissance in resource extraction offers multiple opportunities. In contrast, after an extended rally, established energy companies appear to be taking a breather. A critical look is warranted.

A Moment of Truth, Bankruptcy Fears, or Comeback? Plug Power & Nel ASA Fight for Survival! Will Lahontan Gold See a Technical Breakout?
Geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and an escalation in the Iran conflict are currently causing further turmoil in global financial markets. Crude oil prices are climbing noticeably, while uncertainty among market participants grows by the day. How much higher can prices go, or will peace negotiations resume? The news suggests otherwise. B-1 bombers are being sent to, or redeployed to, the Middle East. Yields on 10-year US Treasury bonds have risen to 4.7%—the highest level this year. In any case, with the resurgent oil price shock, inflation also threatens to pick up again, which could pose significant challenges for central banks worldwide. In this nervous market environment, investors are desperately searching for clear reference points and promising tangible assets. While traditional hydrogen pioneers such as Plug Power and Nel ASA continue to struggle to maintain their own stability and liquidity, select commodity stocks may offer better prospects. In these turbulent times, investors looking to build a more resilient portfolio need to take a closer look.

Things are heating up! Disappointment at Nel ASA - can A.H.T. Syngas, E.ON, and ITM Power deliver?
It is earnings season again! As is the case every year starting in mid-July, publicly traded companies are reporting on the past quarter. There is a lot of movement, especially among the highly watched tech stocks, some of which have suffered sharp price declines in recent weeks. Nel ASA has already reported its Q2 results, confirming the difficult situation in the hydrogen business with another revenue decline—though at least order intake is on the rise. With the climate and energy transition back in the spotlight amid summer temperatures nearing 40 degrees, we are also taking a look at its competitors in the energy sector. A.H.T. Syngas continues to grow in Poland, ITM Power secures additional EU funding, and E.ON is making acquisitions in the UK. So the M&A merry-go-round is spinning again—investors should remain on their toes despite the heat!

Nel ASA Reports Dismal Results! ITM Power Enjoys a Cash Windfall! Is dynaCERT Poised for Multi-Bagger Returns?
When an established company posts a quarterly loss that exceeds its revenue, it is fair to describe the results as dismal. That is exactly what happened at Nel ASA. Against this backdrop, the slight decline in the share price can almost be viewed as positive. That said, not everything in the quarterly report was negative. Analysts view developments at dynaCERT positively. If the company succeeds in commercializing its fuel- and emissions-saving technology, the stock could deliver multi-bagger returns. Management currently sees particularly strong growth opportunities in Asia, where the company has already secured its first major orders. Meanwhile, ITM Power's shares have roughly halved in value in recent months. The market's enthusiasm surrounding the partnerships with Rheinmetall and Deutsche Bahn persisted for quite some time. At least the British company can now celebrate a significant cash windfall.

How to Secure Your Hydrogen Advantage: Nel ASA, dynaCERT, and Plug Power Now in the Spotlight
The era of green hydrogen has finally left behind its much-criticized phase of announcements and exaggerations. Concrete investments worth billions in electrolyzers, pipelines, and storage facilities are propelling the sector into the real economy by 2026—and thus into the spotlight of investors who want to see more than just political declarations of intent. As production costs for green hydrogen improve and industrial demand surges, the spotlight is now on those companies that have mastered the technology behind this value chain. We are therefore taking a look today at the Norwegian electrolyzer specialist Nel ASA, the Canadian emissions reducer dynaCERT, and the US system integrator Plug Power.

Daimler Truck Warns of Charging Station Shortages: NEL Refines Its Strategy While Pure One Rethinks the Entire Approach
The transformation of heavy-duty road transport remains an uphill battle. While increasingly stringent regulations are pushing vehicle manufacturers toward zero-emission technologies, the rollout of charging and hydrogen infrastructure across EU member states continues to lag far behind. The shortcomings are particularly evident along Europe's highways and major freight corridors: for transport operators, an emissions-free truck offers limited value if reliable charging stations or hydrogen refueling infrastructure are unavailable. Against this backdrop of ambitious regulation and slow infrastructure development, agile technology providers are finding new opportunities. We take a closer look at pragmatic solutions and examine where the most promising investment opportunities may emerge.

Penalty Shootout in the Energy Sector: Takeovers Ahead? Keep an Eye on Nel ASA, A.H.T. Syngas, Helios Solar, ITM, and Plug Power
Markets continue to climb, and the global energy transition is entering a new investment phase. Yet the momentum is far from evenly distributed. While Europe is accelerating the expansion of renewable energy to meet rising electricity demand from electric vehicles, industry, data centers, and artificial intelligence, the US administration is placing renewed emphasis on expanding nuclear power. Meanwhile, Southeast Asia is quietly emerging as one of the world's fastest-growing solar markets. According to the International Energy Agency, annual global investment in clean energy technologies will need to exceed USD 2 trillion by the end of the decade merely to move closer to international climate targets. At the same time, the European Commission is easing fiscal rules, giving member states greater scope to invest in energy infrastructure, while the European Investment Bank plans to provide EUR 75 billion in financing for energy transition projects by 2028. Who stands to benefit?

Oil on Sale, Gas and Hydrogen in Vogue! Nel ASA, Pure One, Plug Power, and Shell in the Spotlight
A Fragile Ceasefire! Tensions between the US and Iran remain high, even though the recent de-escalation has provided short-term relief for the oil markets. There is no sign of a robust peace agreement; rather, the situation remains characterized by a fragile political framework, military incidents, and diplomatic feelers. This is particularly relevant for the oil market because the Strait of Hormuz, as a key transport route, remains a geopolitical risk factor. Accordingly, Brent reacts sensitively to any new news from the region. After falling to around USD 72 per barrel, it could rebound at any time. Investment banks are now significantly scaling back their short-term price targets of up to USD 150 set in April, but remain cautious overall for 2026. Depending on the firm, forecasts for Brent now range from USD 70 to USD 85 per barrel, with geopolitical risks, OPEC policy, and the development of the global economy remaining key influencing factors. For investors, this means that oil prices are currently more of a tactical positioning matter and are unsuitable as a long-term investment. It is therefore worth taking a critical look at viable alternatives in the energy sector. But let's get one thing out of the way first: high volatility is here to stay!

Hydrogen Is Gaining Ground in Emerging Markets - How the Transition Can Succeed: Trimble, Nel, dynaCERT
While the long-term goal of completely emission-free mobility remains, opinions on the path to achieving it vary widely. Especially in light of the sluggish economy and major challenges, more and more economies are turning to pragmatic solutions. Many technological and infrastructural hurdles can be circumvented in this way. Since the conversion of large commercial vehicle fleets to battery or fuel cell systems is likely to take decades for well-known reasons, transition technologies are gaining importance. We shed light on the market and introduce three promising players.

Siemens Energy leads the pack, A.H.T. Syngas follows closely, while Nel ASA struggles—which stock will deliver the highest return in the hydrogen boom
The hydrogen market has moved beyond its visionary phase. By 2026, the sector will likely be clearly separated. Some companies are delivering real substance; others are trying to gain attention with new approaches; and some are still struggling to prove their viability. This three-way split is what currently makes the sector so attractive, as the market is no longer rewarding mere participation in a megatrend, but rather execution—turning it into orders and margins. Investors now need to clearly differentiate between these groups. And this is precisely where our focus on three very different companies comes in: Siemens Energy as a current beneficiary, A.H.T. Syngas with its new technology approach, and Nel ASA as a classic turnaround candidate with potentially explosive upside.
