Armaments are becoming socially acceptable, and Hydrogen is finally turning! Rheinmetall, Hensoldt, dynaCERT, Nel ASA and Plug Power in focus!
Who would have thought armaments would become acceptable under a pacifist red-green government? Never before have the opportunities for German defense stocks been as great as they are now. This is because the significant increase in geopolitical conflicts has heightened the need for security in Central Europe. In addition, the EU wants to show its support for Ukraine against the aggressor Russia and is ordering substantial amounts of war materials. In contrast, hydrogen values have almost been forgotten in the last two years. But now, there could be a revival. We look at two sectors with different underlying conditions. Investors should sharpen their senses now!

Bloom Energy, Altech Advanced Materials, JinkoSolar - Renewables are booming again
The hype that began at the start of the decade was followed by disillusionment and drastic share price losses. Over the past three years, renewable energy companies such as Plug Power, Nel ASA & Co. have lost disproportionately to the broader market. For some months now, however, many share prices have been showing signs of bottoming out, which could herald the next upward movement. There is no question that hydrogen, photovoltaics, and wind energy technologies will be further expanded in the future.

Globex Mining, Samsung Electronics, BYD: Commodity rally and innovations from Asia
Increasing demand for generative AI, consumer electronics, and innovations in the automotive industry are significantly boosting demand for raw materials. These are golden times for explorers like Globex Mining. The Canadian company has such a broad-based commodities portfolio that it can be seen as a minerals land bank. For investors, this means reduced risk thanks to high diversification. Samsung Electronics is currently facing several challenges. Not only have they been overtaken by NVIDIA in chip production, but the workforce is also becoming restless. In South Korea, this would be the very first strike in the Company's history. Although the brand value is highly regarded globally, things seem to be quite off-kilter in Suwon. Innovations are produced in Asia. Car manufacturers such as BYD, Geely and Toyota are focusing on the next evolutionary stage in the development of electromobility. The EU, on the other hand, appears helpless and is trying to undermine competition with punitive tariffs. Will they succeed?

Takeover fever? Nel, Super Micro Computer, Kraken Energy
In the slipstream of Nvidia, the Super Micro Computer share is heading back towards an all-time high. The temporary dip following the strong quarterly figures - which fell short of even higher expectations - has ended, and the share is targeting the USD 1,000 mark. Energy producers are increasingly under the spotlight as the AI boom is set to surge energy demand. The billion-dollar takeover of Atlantica Sustainable Infrastructure by the private equity company Energy Capital Partners is currently underway. It is evident that some of the energy demand will have to be met by nuclear energy, benefiting companies like Kraken Energy, which is developing new uranium deposits in the US. Additionally, takeover speculation has recently driven up Nel ASA's share price, but is the rally already over?

dynaCERT, Mercedes-Benz, Amazon - German Engineering: technological transformations in focus
Entrepreneurs like the founders of dynaCERT are creating solutions for a cleaner environment. With a hydrogen-based bridging technology specifically for diesel engines, emissions can be reduced while maintaining the same level of efficiency. Now, the management team is being strengthened by a top-notch individual from Germany with vast experience in growth strategies. Intelligent minds are urgently needed everywhere. At Mercedes-Benz, there seems to be too much reliance on the allure of the brand and a popular model. There is hardly any other explanation for the electrification of this off-road design icon. SAP and Amazon Web Services are entering a special German-American relationship. With their joint venture, they are bringing generative AI to companies, thereby increasing productivity. Three solutions from three companies, with a focus on German expertise.

Already up 180% in 2024 - Who offers more? BioNTech, Bayer, Cardiol Therapeutics, or Evotec?
For investors in the biotech sector, 2024 has been a very rocky year. Everyone is waiting for the big breakthrough, which has yet to appear. In a sector where there is no longer a pandemic and cancer research is still stuck, selection has become very important. Complicating matters is the investor-unfriendly capital market interest rate, with hopes resting on support from central banks quarter by quarter. This makes it all the more important to identify and follow the most innovative business models. BioNTech does not currently have a blockbuster but still has a good EUR 17 billion in its coffers. Pharmaceutical giant Bayer has seen its share price drop to a fifth of its 2019 value, and Evotec also resembles a disaster. Cardiol Therapeutics has performed well so far - what is next for them?

Biotech stocks with a comeback! BioNTech, Evotec, Vidac Pharma
Avian flu has caused vaccine stocks such as BioNTech, Moderna and CureVac to soar in the past week; however, more is needed to ensure a sustainable comeback. BioNTech plans to achieve this with cancer drugs. In an interview with "Handelsblatt", BioNTech's CEO expressed his optimism about significantly reducing the mortality rate. The Mainz-based company plans to launch its first drugs on the market as early as 2026. Vidac Pharma is pursuing a revolutionary approach in the fight against cancer. The London-based biotech company has published promising study data and is being traded as a takeover candidate. And what about Evotec?

RWE, Desert Gold Ventures, GameStop - Stragglers in the bull market
Despite the fact that the US stock markets were closed yesterday for Memorial Day, Germany's leading index, the DAX, remained in the green. In addition to the major share indices, other asset classes, such as gold and Bitcoin, are generally in an overarching upward trend, which suggests that prices will continue to rise. Although the underlying assets are trading near their highs, companies from the relevant sectors are still far from reaching those levels.
