Hydrogen - further caution. Gold - strong buy! Nel, Plug and Nucera in the sell-off, consider increasing Globex Mining!
The year 2023 will go down in the history books as the anti-bull market for hydrogen stocks. Because of political declarations of intent, they were the most sought-after stocks on the stock market in 2019 and 2021. However, instead of public and private initiatives, hydrogen is becoming a specialized solution. Electrolysis, which is costly, makes sense where there is enough green energy and surplus available from the grid. In Europe, however, there is more of an energy problem, and expensive hydrogen cannot offer economic solutions. Investors are therefore rethinking and selling the still costly stocks. Mining and mining stocks have also fallen in 2023, but gold and strategic metals have an undeniable demand. Taking a look at Globex Mining could be worthwhile at this point. Here are some ideas for the active investor.

CO2 Certificates - The Solution for Climate Change? Nel ASA, Klimat X, Ballard Power and Plug Power in the analysis check!
The transition to a sustainable climate cannot be solely funded by the public. Success depends on private initiatives. It is, therefore, all the more important that inventiveness and entrepreneurial energy in this critical economic sector are also rewarded and promoted. In May 2022, the European Union launched REPowerEU, a billion-dollar program on how to shape the energy future. At the time, hydrogen accounted for less than 2% of energy consumption in Europe and was mainly used to manufacture chemical products such as plastics and fertilizers. The European Commission has proposed producing about 10 million tons of renewable hydrogen by 2030 and importing another 10 million tons to reduce climate-damaging gases. Climate innovations are evaluated differently on the stock market, and we will focus on some key players.

RWE, GoviEx Uranium, Plug Power - Profits with tomorrow's energy
Nuclear power has long been a controversial source of energy. However, if one wants to produce energy in a carbon-neutral way, nuclear power plants are part of the solution. Uranium is needed to operate them, and its price has recently increased significantly. It is no wonder, as there are 61 power plants in planning and 57 under construction worldwide. While some countries, such as France and China, rely heavily on nuclear power, Germany has decided to phase it out. Since then, Germany has had to import electricity, as renewable energies are not yet capable of meeting the base load. To do this, storing surplus energy would have to be possible. The solution could be green hydrogen. Therefore, we look at an energy supplier, a future uranium producer and a producer of green hydrogen.

Now it is getting dangerous! Hydrogen crash: Nel and Plug Power down, dynaCERT steps on the gas!
While the stock markets recently reached new highs and are now consolidating somewhat, there is widespread gloom in the hydrogen sector. Since the last hype at the beginning of 2021, the stocks have been trending downward. The Joe Biden Administration's Inflation Reduction Act and the EU hydrogen offensive had only been able to give the sector a short-term boost, and most recently, the protagonists marked new, multi-year lows. Nevertheless, there are also positive signs. We examine the risk-reward ratio.

Hydrogen losing, oil stocks gaining: Plug Power, Shell and Cashflow Monster Saturn Oil + Gas
Hydrogen is considered the future, but is it too early for pure-play stocks to enter? Companies like Plug Power and Nel are expected to continue posting substantial losses for the foreseeable future. Both are valued in the billions, and both will likely have to carry out a capital increase before they reach break-even. By contrast, oil companies are earning brilliantly. Shell prioritizes margin over revenue, which is winning over analysts. Similarly, Cashflow Monster Saturn Oil & Gas is receiving praise from analysts. Their performance in the second quarter was slightly above analysts' expectations. Will the Canadians soon pay a monster dividend?

Is the breakthrough coming? BYD, Plug Power, dynaCERT share in check
Shares related to the energy and mobility transition have not had it easy in recent months. But will the autumn bring a liberation blow? The negative sentiment could be a good contraindicator. BYD recently published convincing figures. However, analysts foresee fierce competition in the coming years. Plug Power has recently seen its price targets plummet. Does that mean the worst is behind us? At dynaCERT, the AEM electrolyser for green hydrogen is becoming a big seller. More and more industrial companies are testing it. Now, green hydrogen is also expected to contribute to green steel production in Canada.

Plug Power, Almonty Industries, JinkoSolar - Will the doubler come after the Crisis?
Currently, there are several hotspots of crisis around the world. There is the war between Russia and Ukraine, the efforts of the BRICS countries to free themselves from the supremacy of the US dollar, and the smoldering dispute between the US and China. Relations between the latter have deteriorated in recent years, partly because the US fears growing Chinese influence. However, the BRICS nations are blessed with raw materials that the West desperately needs. The list of critical metals is long. This is also true for Europe, which has had an energy problem above all since the Ukraine conflict. Efforts are being made to solve this. We have picked out one company from each of the various focal points.

DAX consolidates, Artificial Intelligence stutters and Hydrogen in rebound? Plug Power, First Hydrogen and Nel ASA in focus
The summer has so far not brought much joy to the bulls on the international markets. After a strong NASDAQ performance of plus 30% at the beginning of the year, the tech index is increasingly facing rough waters. Not even the solid earnings of the AI giant NVIDIA could prevent the 1,500-point correction since early July. The German benchmark index DAX 40 also plunged from 16,529 at its high to below 15,800 points. Chart technicians point to the critical zone of 15,450 to 15,650, which the market could approach in the next few days. This is where the continuation of the bull market since September 2022 will be decided. A brief look at the hydrogen sector provides clarity.

Disappointments and surprises: Nikola, Plug Power, First Hydrogen
Hydrogen and electromobility are megatrends. But not all shares from these sectors deliver what they promise. Nikola has recently disappointed. After the share price multiplied in June and July, it halved in August. And now Nikola has shocked shareholders again. Investors have also been unhappy with Plug Power in recent months. The hydrogen specialist just cannot get a handle on its margins. Is there hope for both again after the recent sell-offs? In contrast, First Hydrogen has surprised on the upside. A customer is enthusiastic about the test of the hydrogen fuel cell vehicle. Will a major order follow now, along with a rediscovery of the stock?

Plug Power, JinkoSolar, Altech Advanced Materials: Only one share is strong
The stock market is currently on shaky ground. In such times, it is worth considering stocks that show relative strength. Which renewable energy company falls into this category? Hydrogen specialist Plug Power disappointed again with its latest quarterly figures. And now analysts are also losing patience. In contrast, JinkoSolar has increased its half-year profit by over 300%. However, the shares of the Chinese solar group are trading lower than they have in a long time. The shares of Altech Advanced Materials - also listed on XETRA since July - are among the German stock market stars of 2023 with a plus of 250%. But is there more in store? After all, the Company aims to revolutionize the battery market and even outshine the new Tesla battery.
