Take cover - Tesla reports figures today! BYD, NIO, Power Nickel, BASF: Here we go with e-mobility!
The tension is rising. How will the annual figures of the industry leader in e-mobility, Tesla, really turn out now? By the end of 2022, there was a 70% slump in the share, and Elon Musk, the founder, had USD 100 billion less in the account within 8 weeks. He himself was to blame because in order to finance the Twitter takeover, he had to part with Tesla shares. For the year 2023, we are now interested in the expectations that will be placed on e-mobility. The fact is that many countries, including Germany, are now gradually withdrawing subsidies. So the new mobility must now learn to walk by itself. Where are the opportunities for investors?

Vonovia, Alpina Holdings, Commerzbank - Has the real estate market bottomed out?
The past few years have been an El Dorado for the real estate sector. But since interest rates started rising, dark clouds have gathered over the real estate market. In addition, the sharp rise in construction costs and inflation are pulling money out of the pockets of interested real estate buyers and making them reluctant to make purchasing decisions. According to a study by EY Real Estate, the real estate investment market slumped by 40% in 2022. In 2023, transaction volumes could fall further. We take a look at three companies around the real estate sector and highlight the opportunities and risks.

Hydrogen vision or greenwashing? Amazon, First Hydrogen, Plug Power
Nowadays, various sustainability projects are under criticism, for example, when companies invest in forests to offset their CO2 emissions. Even the EU Commission has been accused of greenwashing following its decision to classify natural gas as sustainable. The critical discourse that has now been initiated could put many companies under scrutiny. We explain where sustainability is just PR and where the hydrogen vision can become a reality.

Almonty Industries, ThyssenKrupp, Volkswagen - Tungsten: The raw material for high-tech applications!
Tungsten is a rare and valuable metal with a high melting point, hardness, corrosion resistance and good electrical and thermal conductivity. It is widely used in industry, national defence and high-tech applications. An important use of tungsten is in alloys, especially steel, where it increases the melting point, hardness and wear resistance. Now applications could be expanded even further. Researchers have developed a cathode material made from a molybdenum tungsten niobate alloy that can be used to charge electric cars in minutes.

Aurelius, Smartbroker Holding AG, Hypoport - Strong movements
For years, the construction industry was booming. However, the sector slid into a deep crisis last year due to rising construction costs and the end of low interest rates. Experts are not yet giving the all-clear for the current year, either. The figures for online brokers were also down sharply. As a result, the share prices of the companies concerned plummeted. At a discounted level, this offers attractive entry opportunities for a company that should enjoy an absolutely unique selling proposition in the event of a successful launch of its new platform.

Cameco, Tocvan Ventures, Barrick Gold - Shining in new splendor
The era of hefty interest rate hikes is coming to an end, but high inflation remains. That is bad news for the economy and society. But for precious metals, which serve as inflation protection, this is grist to the mill. In addition to the gold price, another metal has celebrated a comeback recently. Uranium was able to bottom out after a bear market that lasted for years. With demand rising due to climate change, stocks in this sector should promise sustainable gains.

Nel after the ITM Power shock: Better to bet on BioNTech and Alpina Holdings?
The year 2022 was not the year of growth stocks. Will this change in 2023? The positive start to the current year shows that the chances of this happening are quite good; however, not in the hydrogen sector. The renewed warning from ITM Power is weighing on the entire sector and stoking fears that Nel, Plug Power & Co. will not be able to work off their full order books in 2023 either. That is where a look at other sectors and stocks can pay off. Example: Alpina Holdings from Singapore. The Company is growing at double-digit rates, and its valuation is incredibly low. BioNTech wants to expand further. Goldman Sachs expects strong newsflow from the cancer pipeline in 2023.

Apple, Power Nickel, Volkswagen - New flights of fancy due to lithium resources
Apple shines with its new Mac Mini. Gone are the days of Intel processors. With their in-house M2 chips, a new consumer group of young creatives such as influencers, podcasters and other media professionals have an entry-level model at a fair price. No wonder the demand for metals like lithium is multiplying. The Canadian company Power Nickel can make excellent use of this boom. In its current drilling program, the results indicate high nickel deposits. This raw material is also of particular interest to Volkswagen. The group wants to invest in Canadian mines and is building six battery plants to produce and equip its EVs.

Nel ASA, First Hydrogen, Landi Renzo, Plug Power - Hydrogen: The 2nd row is booming
For climate protection and a secure energy supply, the Western world must become independent of fossil fuels. Hydrogen plays a key role in climate change as a substitute for natural gas, oil, and coal. Despite programs worth billions of euros from politicians and excellent prospects for the future, the largest companies in the hydrogen and fuel sector, such as Nel ASA and Plug Power, are still undergoing a profound correction. In contrast, it is mainly second-tier companies attracting attention that could catch up soon based on their technology.

The market for electricity storage to pick up speed by 2030: RWE, Nordex, Altech Advanced Materials
Being in on the action from the start is the dream of many investors. Imagine: Having bought shares of Amazon or Alphabet decades ago - you could also get rich with BYD over the decades. But there are new opportunities. By 2030, stationary energy storage will be the next big thing. Electricity grids must be stable, and energy from renewable sources must be stored for this purpose. Recently, RWE brought new giant batteries online and is planning much more. For some companies, enormous opportunities are emerging.
