The world keeps turning! Caution with VW, Mercedes, Altech Advanced Materials, Plug Power, and Nel ASA!
E-mobility and the upstream battery market are making headlines. Following the abolition of tax incentives, the topic of "electric mobility" has to face up to the harsh market conditions. Hydrogen is also competing, but it is currently still far too expensive to be economically successful. This leaves us with battery technologies, which are used both in energy storage systems and in vehicles. The near bankruptcy of Varta shows how tough the market has become here. There is plenty of room for innovative ideas! Altech Advanced Materials is making waves in German engineering with solid concepts. The market eagerly awaits the first mid-sized products, while many other market players must first justify their billion-dollar valuations. We take a closer look.

Deutsche Rohstoff AG, Saturn Oil + Gas, Siemens Energy - Weak demand offers opportunities
Persistent concerns about slow demand in China led to a sell-off and pushed oil prices below USD 80 per barrel. According to customs data released over the weekend, diesel and gasoline exports from the major oil importer fell sharply in July, driven by lower crude processing due to weak margins. However, this is offset by supply risks related to tensions in the Middle East and the escalation of the war between Russia and Ukraine, which could bring the current correction to a rapid end.

New Nasdaq bull market: Highs ahead for Rheinmetall, Almonty Industries, Super Micro Computer, and Infineon
The correction was over quickly! The Nasdaq 100 index has lost 3,000 points since the beginning of July. This meant a third of the annual performance was wiped out in the short term. However, the fantasy of imminent interest rate cuts by the Fed quickly put an end to the correction. The highly regarded technology index recovered more than half of its losses in just one week. Nvidia led the way, rebounding from USD 92 to USD 125. The half-year figures for Rheinmetall and Almonty will be available at the end of August. We take a closer look.

Alamos Gold, Prismo Metals, Hudbay Minerals - Gold breaks out, copper turns, act now!
After a brief pause, gold returned with a brilliant breakout and crossed the USD 2,500 per ounce mark for the first time. This new all-time high has generated a striking buy signal. The conditions, with further escalation in geopolitics, provide the best opportunities for continued price increases. Copper also sent out positive signals. Despite economic concerns, the industrial metal may have found a bottom after the correction of recent weeks.

Starbucks, First Hydrogen, Amazon - Which industry has the greatest growth potential?
The markets are on the move. Large companies such as Starbucks are facing new challenges as the system catering business stagnates. A rigorous CEO replacement is now intended to bring both the team and shareholders back to the core of the coffee roasting company: Entrepreneurial spirit, customer friendliness, and innovation. Brian Niccol, who has already set other system catering businesses on the road to success, has been appointed to the helm with these key words. All hopes are now pinned on him. In the booming hydrogen market, the Canadian company First Hydrogen has an entirely different set of challenges. With a focus on the logistics sector, the team is concentrating on developing a delivery van that companies like Amazon & Co can use. Initial tests under real-life conditions bode well: the First Hydrogen vehicle can cover a whopping 630 km on a single tank of hydrogen. Like Starbucks, Amazon is experiencing a slowdown in growth. New competitors, particularly from China, are appearing on the e-commerce scene. However, the Seattle-based company has a growth strategy that uses AI. Where is the greatest growth potential for investors?

Takeover! Records! All-time high! Rheinmetall, Barrick Gold, Prismo Metals, and TUI
Strong figures, a takeover, and a share at an all-time high - Rheinmetall is bursting with strength. How much further can the share go? The gold price is also at an all-time high, and industry heavyweight Barrick has released strong figures. Is this finally the time for gold shares and explorers in particular? One exciting candidate is Prismo Metals. The Canadians are not only drilling for gold but also for copper and silver. The newcomer appears to be ripe for a price surge. The TUI share is still a long way from its all-time high. However, a competitor's operational development and insolvency give hope for rising share prices.

Shock for Siemens Energy share! BYD and Altech Advanced Materials are going full throttle!
Will the Siemens Energy share price halve? JP Morgan shocked the Company's shareholders with this theory at the beginning of the week. The latest figures were convincing. How did the analysts arrive at the target price, and is there any hope of the share price rising? Altech Advanced Materials is also likely to see its share price rise. The Company is working on next-generation battery technology, and the first prototypes have exceeded expectations. With a high level of equity and strong partners such as Fraunhofer, the rest of the year looks promising. BYD is also going full throttle, aiming for a 5% market share in Europe soon to avoid tariffs.

Commerzbank, Desert Gold, Coinbase - Which assets retain their value in a crash?
Following the financial crash, investors are increasingly seeking safe and profitable investment opportunities. Traditional savings methods at banks offer security but often only yield low returns. Gold, on the other hand, has been considered a crisis-proof store of value for centuries and experiences a resurgence in uncertain times. At the same time, cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin are gaining popularity, both because of their high return potential and their decentralized nature. We therefore take a look at one company from each sector and see how the shares have reacted in the latest setback.
