The future of digital content: MiMedia, Dropbox, and Amazon in the race for data sovereignty
Cloud services are simple and incredibly useful. Whether it is photos from past vacations, data from a long-term project from 2020, or the baking recipe Grandma sent us years ago via WhatsApp - all this information is now just a few swipes away. However, the more personal data we store online, the greater the risk. More and more customers are focusing on security. We look at the business models of cloud service providers MiMedia, Dropbox, and Amazon.

Hope for German industry: Amazon, Cameco, and First Hydrogen
Political stock markets are short-lived, and the world keeps turning. Even if the current US administration is shaking this principle to its core, there are many indications that the trend toward green transformation will continue. A prime example: In Germany, the "Heating Act" is being loudly repealed, but its effects remain. Oil and gas are becoming increasingly expensive, and renewable solutions continue to be the preferred choice. The transformation is also progressing in industry – in the case of hydrogen specialist First Hydrogen, even more ambitiously than before.

How hedge funds are now betting on gold: Amazon, Barrick Gold, and Golden Cariboo Resources
"Asset managers and hedge funds are seeking refuge in gold," read the headline in Handelsblatt in the week before Easter. But what is driving the rush for the precious metal? In addition to the considerable uncertainty surrounding the trade tariff dispute, investment professionals are also turning to safe havens due to growing geopolitical risks. But what options do investors have beyond coins and bars? We look at how investors can indirectly bet on the precious metal through stocks.

First Hydrogen, BYD, Amazon - How hydrogen, e-mobility, and quality control are transforming the economy
The global economy is changing, opening new doors for investors. Three companies are in the spotlight. First Hydrogen is attracting attention with hydrogen and small reactors as an energy source. The founding of the new subsidiary First Nuclear makes it clear: The energy future is being built here. Electric automaker BYD is pushing forward with all its might, aiming to produce 5.5 million vehicles in 2025 - the ambitious goal: To double sales outside of China. With production sites in the EU and other countries, the Company is cleverly avoiding possible tariffs and conquering new markets. Amazon remains a pioneer in its field and relies on green energy and quality: Wind and solar projects are being developed in Spain and Portugal. In addition, it is taking a tough line against brand counterfeiting – the fight against plagiarism in the marketplace has begun. Hydrogen, electric mobility, and quantum technology – these future drivers could fundamentally change existing industries. How exactly are these companies influencing tomorrow's world?

After the NASDAQ correction – Hightech on the rebound: Palantir, Amazon, MiMedia, SMCI, and Intel on the rise
The NASDAQ correction was sharp and brief, with a 15% drop from 22,200 to 19,100 in just 4 weeks. In the context of a normal consolidation, that might be enough to bring the heavily overbought tech stocks back to normal levels. Unfortunately, however, there are also valid fundamental reasons that can be traced back to the official chaos of the new US President, Donald Trump. He is making wild tariff demands and withdrawing key resources from all international partnerships. This departure from normal political behavior could have a much more significant impact on the stock market, as global trade relations are faltering, while inflation and currency devaluation continue. Which tech stocks should be considered now?

D-Wave, Power Nickel, Amazon - Copper as a key raw material for the technological revolution
The increasing demand for copper for new technologies such as quantum computers, power grids, and solar system expansion is putting pressure on the global raw materials market. D-Wave, a pioneer in quantum computing, requires copper for its highly complex systems. With fresh capital of USD 150 million, the Palo Alto-based company is continuing its growth strategy. In the immediate vicinity, the Canadian raw materials company Power Nickel is tapping into promising copper and precious metal deposits with its NISK project. The ongoing boom in raw materials is ideal for Power Nickel. The current drilling is delivering promising results from a nickel-copper-cobalt-PGE deposit and a high-grade copper-precious metal zone. Amazon, in turn, is pushing ahead with its zero-emissions strategy with its 58-MW solar projects in Japan. Here, too, copper plays a key role in the construction of the solar plants. The economic sustainability of individual countries depends heavily on their available raw material resources and suppliers. Three companies exemplify how copper is becoming the strategic metal of the digital transformation.

Thunder Gold Corp., Amazon, Rheinmetall - Record values for gold, AI and armaments
The technology landscape and the commodities sector are currently showing their most dynamic side. Thunder Gold Corporation is delivering exceptional exploration results in Ontario, Canada. The reported gold grades of 9.12 g/t Au over 12.66 m are not only the strongest in the project's history, but they also indicate a potentially large gold deposit. The project's strategic location, with direct access to important infrastructure, further enhances the potential of this area. Amazon is making a technological breakthrough in the highly competitive AI chip market. With its new Trainium 2 processor, the tech giant is taking a direct shot at market leader Nvidia. The promised fourfold increase in computing power at a significantly lower cost could fundamentally change the balance of power in this billion-dollar market. Rheinmetall is also continuing its growth course. Deutsche Bank is significantly raising its estimate and the target price to EUR 700. The Düsseldorf-based company, which wants to double its sales to EUR 20 billion by 2027, is benefiting from a new major order from Canada worth EUR 215 million.

BP, dynaCERT, and Amazon – Substantial profits through new markets
Under the leadership of its new CEO, the oil and gas giant BP is scaling back its ambitious climate targets. Even if the policy of some countries would prefer to focus on zero emissions, transitional technologies are needed between fossil fuels and renewable energies. It is precisely at this interface that the technology company dynaCERT is developing applicable solutions for CO₂ reduction for diesel engines. The Company has now received certification from the renowned organization Verra according to the latest and globally valid CO₂ standards. The Verra Verified Carbon Standard (VCS) program is the world leader in the certification of carbon credits. This certification opens up an additional market for dynaCERT and its investors, from which shareholders also benefit. Amazon, in turn, is using AI to improve both efficiency in its warehouses and the sustainability of its logistics. We take a look at the growth opportunities in detail.
