After yesterday's triumphant announcement regarding a possible vaccine against the Corona Virus, a rift in the stock market seems to be in full swing. Highly praised tech shares and the profiteers of the Corona Crisis are falling through the bank. In contrast, there is a rebirth of the old economy and cyclical stocks. Oil stocks are also picking up again. The hope for an economic revival is becoming more tangible and creates excellent opportunities for the Fallen Angels.

    Climate change mainstream again

    The Corona Pandemic has been the number one topic of conversation in recent months; however, climate change will likely find its way back into mainstream media once life normalizes again. "Fridays For Future" and Greta, will once again call for the world to be saved, and politicians who are currently acting as corona saviors, such as Bavarian Prime Minister Markus Söder, will once again put the ban of the internal combustion engine on the agenda.

    Green technology and hydrogen

    This is precisely where dynaCERT Inc., which was founded in 2001, comes in. The basic idea of the Canadians is to reduce the pollutant emissions of diesel-powered vehicles. For this purpose, retrofitting units for diesel engines have been developed which use hydrogen as a catalyst. This reduces both fuel consumption and CO2 emissions in peak times, by up to 20%.

    Trucks (still) in the foreground

    The target group of dynaCERT is, however, not yet the millions of passenger cars, but primarily fleet operators. The goal is to retrofit the millions of trucks still running on diesel. With the specially developed software "HydraLitica" (TM) it is possible to monitor the fuel savings. Building on this platform, the Company recently announced additional services such as fleet management, route planning, driver safety and load management. The Company's technology is currently being tested in more than 400 vehicles.

    Analysts extremely bullish

    The analyst firm GBC Research seems to be highly impressed. The experts set the dynaCERT share at a clear buy. The target price was set at no less than CAD 2.20 by the end of 2021. As of yesterday, the share price was at CAD 0.50, offering considerable upside potential. The Canadians have definitely taken the pulse of the times.

    Insiders started buying

    At the moment, positive and negative reports are coming from the pharmaceutical and agricultural giant, Bayer AG. After the share price reached a 5-year low of EUR 40.36 last week, the first insiders started to buy. Bayer CEO, Werner Baumann, ordered shares worth around EUR 2.45 million. Also, Chief Financial Officer Wolfgang Nickl and Heiko Schipper, responsible for the health products business, increased their portfolio with shares for EUR 154,000 and EUR 309,000 respectively.

    Hope for approval

    The application for approval of Bayer's renal drug, Finerenon, in the USA and the European Union is also positive. The applications were submitted simultaneously to the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Medicines Agency (EMA). Finerenon is considered a new treatment option for slowing the progression of chronic kidney disease. According to industry experts, the drug has a potential of up to EUR 1.5 billion per year.

    Sword of Damocles Monsanto

    However, the glyphosate controversy continues to dominate all news. The US judge in charge is putting pressure on the Leverkusen-based Company. He wants to resume negotiations in some unresolved cases. Bayer wanted to take the litigation off the table last summer with a large-scale settlement of USD 9.6 billion. However, this settlement was rejected by the court. According to the Bayer leadership, the settlement package increased to around EUR 11.6 billion as of the beginning of November. The uncertainty remains. In the last two weeks, the price of the Bayer stock has recovered by almost 20% and, from a chartist's point of view, is on the verge of the downward trend that began in June and currently stands at just under EUR 49. In the event of a successful breakthrough, the gap to EUR 52.60 should be closed quickly.

    NEL ASA keeps hoarding orders

    Almost every week the Norwegian hydrogen specialist can shine with new orders. This time the subsidiary, Nel Hydrogen US, received orders for PEM electrolyzer cell stacks worth more than USD 5.4 million from none other than Raytheon Technologies. Nel Hydrogen US is the exclusive supplier of electrolyzer stacks to the United States Navy. The stacks produce vital oxygen for the crews on several classes of nuclear-powered submarines.

    Gold Renaissance in Nevada: Nevada Gold Mines, Kinross Gold, and Takeover Candidate Lahontan Gold

    Gold has shown increased volatility in recent weeks, while geopolitical developments continue to shape capital allocation across the sector. In response, producers are increasingly focusing on politically stable regions where existing infrastructure offers cost advantages. According to the Fraser Institute, Nevada remains one of the most attractive regions globally for mining investment. While industry leaders such as Nevada Gold Mines are setting standards through optimizations at their large-scale mines and corporations like Kinross Gold are actively searching for new resources in the Walker-Lane trend to replace their dwindling reserves, junior explorers offer a unique opportunity. The up-and-coming company Lahontan Gold operates the Santa Fe project, a former producing mine that recently made headlines with strong drill results. Thanks to a combination of existing permits and its location in one of the world's most productive gold regions, the company's flagship project aligns closely with the acquisition criteria of larger producers.

    Congo in Focus: Barrick and Ivanhoe Pave the Way for DRC Gold

    The global mining industry is at a turning point—demand for new deposits is rising, while globalization is increasingly reaching its limits, making diversified and redundant supply chains essential. In this market environment, the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) has moved beyond its traditional role as a mere raw material supplier and is undergoing a significant transformation. The progress being made in the country is exemplified by the successes of companies like Barrick Mining and Ivanhoe Mines. Their multi-billion-dollar investments demonstrate that large-scale operations are indeed feasible in the DRC. The country's geological potential has once again drawn attention due to the recent record production at Barrick Mining's Kibali mine. While major corporations are successfully advancing projects in the DRC, junior explorers are also increasingly attracting investor attention. DRC Gold is capitalizing on this momentum and identifying new resources through drilling programs in close proximity to existing projects. Against the backdrop of declining reserves among major producers such as Barrick and Ivanhoe, the smaller company, led by German CEO Klaus Eckhof, offers an exciting opportunity to benefit from the new growth in the Congo.

    Back to the Debasement Trade: Gold Stocks Like Kinross Gold, Lahontan Gold, and Newmont Poised to Benefit

    Over the past year, the debasement trade has come into focus for many investors. The idea behind it is an investment strategy designed to protect one's assets from the creeping devaluation of currencies like the US dollar or the euro. As global debt continues to rise and central banks in countries like the US or Japan are massively buying up their own government debt, their currencies are being weakened. Creeping inflation, which is likely to be exacerbated by the war in the Persian Gulf, will then effectively result in taxpayers being expropriated. Economists have long realized that these countries will never repay their debts but will instead resort to massive inflation. This is what emperors and kings did in earlier times, and this is what heads of state and prime ministers will do today. Investors can protect themselves from these developments by investing in the gold sector while simultaneously generating returns.
