The market is seeing red. Of course, in the short term, the outbreak of a new Coronavirus variant is determining events on the markets. In addition to stocks, cryptocurrencies are falling like stones, and even the safe haven gold is sliding into the red after initial gains. In the long term, values from the hydrogen sector, especially after the strong correction of the past months, offer enormous potential due to the tighter climate targets and are gradually becoming more attractive again at current levels.

    Ready for the mass market

    One of the stocks that has been in correction mode not just since the South African Corona variant broke out is dynaCERT. Since the peak in February 2020 at EUR 0.93, the share price has only known the downward direction, apart from a few significant countermovements. At EUR 0.17, the price is only minimally above its low for the year. The reasons for this are clear. The market is waiting for the roll-out of Carbon Emission Reduction Technology, which has been developed and patented worldwide for 17 years. It is aimed at reducing emissions and improving fuel efficiency.

    The resulting HydraGEN product is used in internal combustion engines, currently focusing on heavy vehicles. Here, the electrolysis unit produces water and oxygen, optimizing fuel combustion, resulting in both a reduction in fuel consumption and emissions of up to 19%. HydraGEN is compatible with many types and sizes of diesel engines used in passenger cars, refrigerated trucks, off-road construction, power generation, mining and forestry equipment, ships and railroad locomotives.

    In addition, HydraLytica, intelligent software that records and analyzes consumption, has been developed. The fleet companies can convert the CO2 saved into corresponding certificates and sell them. In this context, the potential for the next few years is virtually inexhaustible due to the CO2 reduction targets set at around 100 million vehicles. As a result, sales have been rolled out globally to a total of 38 countries.

    At least a small start was the implementation of the technology by Sofina Foods, one of Canada's leading manufacturers of primary and processed protein products for retail and foodservice and international markets. They are expanding their dynaCERT system from four to now twenty units.

    Significantly bounced back

    The stock market star of 2020, the Norwegian hydrogen specialist Nel ASA, celebrated a comeback in recent weeks. After the year's lows at EUR 1.20, the share rose to EUR 2.06 but stuck here several times at the striking resistance of the July high. Since then, the Norwegian shares have been in reverse gear and are in a corridor between EUR 1.60 and EUR 1.80. A slide would mean even more pressure on the share.

    An order for an electrolyzer system to accelerate fossil-free steel production recently came in from Sweden. The order, received by the subsidiary Nel Hydrogen Electrolyser AS, covers an alkaline water electrolyzer with a capacity of 20 MW. The order, worth around EUR 11 million, was placed by Ovako, a producer of structural steel, which intends to install the electrolyzer at the company's plant in Hofors, Sweden. For Nel Asa CEO Jon André Løkke, the order is a confirmation of the importance of green hydrogen: "There is enormous potential for reducing CO2 emissions from steel heating processes by using green hydrogen. There are numerous similar sites with equally great potential for decarbonization throughout Europe and the rest of the world."

    Correction after highs

    Even the shares of Chinese electric carmaker BYD, which have been running like clockwork for months, were unable to escape the South African Corona variant, losing more than 5% in the course of trading. In the process, the value closed an upward gap torn in the past week at EUR 34.20. The chart already finds support in the area around EUR 34.00. The growth prospects continue to be dazzling, and due to a positive overall market, BYD should also start heading north again.

    On the news level, a major order for the delivery of electric buses to Barcelona could be published. In this context, 25 electric buses of the latest generation are to be put into operation in the Catalan capital between 2022 and 2024 by the transport company Transportes Metropolitanos de Barcelona SA.


    Currently, a new Corona variant is weighing on the markets in the short term. In the long term, however, renewable energy stocks should perform due to the new climate targets. There is potential for dynaCERT in the event of a successful roll-out, and BYD should resume its upward path if the markets are positive.

    Dream Returns with Oil and Gas! Jump on Pure One, but Proceed with Caution on BP, OMV, and Nordex

    Recent developments are drawing renewed attention! US President Donald Trump has ordered the US Navy to implement a full-scale blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. He aims to halt Iranian shipments, which had previously been tolerated, in favor of countries that are no longer on the list of allies in this Middle East conflict. At the same time, a joint project by individual NATO allies is launching to secure the disputed strait, to enable future transit once again. With this news, energy and commodity prices surged higher again yesterday, even though some of the gains were already pared back by the afternoon. The focus is once again on oil and gas stocks, as well as some alternative energy and utility shares. In this environment, the Australian company Pure One can steer its diverse range of activities in the most profitable direction. Meanwhile, established players such as BP, OMV, and Nordex have already seen significant share price gains, prompting analysts to adopt a more cautious stance. A closer look is therefore warranted.

    Cleantech stocks are currently in demand like never before. For instance, Nordex shares have risen by over 30% since the start of the US attack on Iran. A flurry of news and positive analyst comments continue to provide a tailwind. At dynaCERT, German manager Kevin Unrath has already injected new momentum as COO. Now, as CEO, he is set to drive commercialization forward. If successful, the Cleantech stock could multiply in value. Analysts share this view. At Plug Power, analysts have significantly raised their price target. However, the stock has also performed very well in recent weeks. Can the former hydrogen hopeful continue its upward trajectory?

    Focus on Copper and PGMs: Rio Tinto, Sibanye-Stillwater, and the Opportunity at Power Metallic Mines

    Securing supplies of copper and platinum group metals (PGMs) is becoming increasingly important, as these elements are essential for both energy infrastructure and the hydrogen economy. Analyses by S&P Global and McKinsey forecast a rise in copper demand to 42 million metric tons by 2040, representing a 50% increase compared to 2025. At the same time, the International Energy Agency (IEA) reports that demand for hydrogen already reached approximately 100 million metric tons in 2024, driving the need for platinum and palladium in electrolysers. While major corporations like Rio Tinto are securing their market leadership by investing in massive copper projects to meet the industry's long-term needs, PGM specialist Sibanye-Stillwater is increasingly focusing on diversifying its portfolio toward polymetallic deposits in stable jurisdictions. It is in this environment that Power Metallic Mines operates its Nisk project in the Canadian province of Québec. Recent discoveries in the Lion Zone have confirmed exceptional copper grades exceeding 10% as well as significant PGM by-products. This quality in a world-class mining region makes the company attractive—both to investors speculating on strategic consolidations and to major corporations seeking world-class resources.
