Second hydrogen wave launched - Plug Power, dynaCERT, Ballard Power
It is well known that green hydrogen has been identified by both industry and politicians alike as a key element for the energy transition. At the beginning of the decade, shares in the sector became the new darlings of the stock market and were given advance praise and valuations in the billions. However, the sector is still struggling with problems such as the high price of gas and the still undeveloped infrastructure. As a result, even market leaders in the sector have lost more than 50% of their stock market value. This presents a long-term opportunity to participate in the future market of hydrogen.

A lot of movement can be expected here: Covestro, Globex Mining, and Nikola - The focus is on 100% returns!
Greentech is politically promoted and booming. Many stocks are traded on the stock market with this fantasy. But what is really technologically feasible? Those seeking to switch from fossil energy to electric forms often overlook the sometimes poor efficiency in converting fossil primary energy sources to electricity from the socket. Truly green solutions are defined per se by applications that improve the overall energy balance of the goods moved or even achieve a net-zero impact. Access to cheap raw materials, especially high-tech metals, is a prerequisite for all endeavours. We look forward to interesting price movements in the sector.

Biotech comeback! Profit with BioNTech, Morphosys and BioNxt Solutions
Biotech shares have not been among the favourites on the stock market in recent months. After the Corona hype, they were overshadowed by BigTech and especially AI. Sartorius, BioNTech and Co. have corrected strongly. But in the meantime, there are strong signs of a comeback - led by Morphosys. The share of the German biotech veteran has doubled since the beginning of April. MediGene and Evotec have also recorded price jumps. Are BioNTech and BioNxt Solutions next? Morphosys also continues to be praised by analysts. But Goldman Sachs wants to end the party.

Financial System 3.0 saved? Deutsche Bank, Defiance Silver and Nvidia - Artificial Intelligence conquers the banking world!
We cannot help but feel a little uneasy when we see the capabilities of Artificial Intelligence, even as mere users, as demonstrated, for example, by ChatGPT. However, Big Data and related analysis tools have been used by large IT companies for years and accompany our daily lives in the background. Currently, the behaviour of financial institutions and the actions of central banks are of particular interest. They must pull out all the stops to smooth out the distortions caused by inflation, war and the interest rate explosion. A tried and tested means in the past was the creation of liquidity, but that is no longer working. Where do the opportunities for investors lie?

Volkswagen, Defense Metals, Rheinmetall - Dependence on China
Without rare earths, the energy transition fails. There would be neither electric cars nor wind turbines without the critical raw material, which has long been on the list of critical metals in Europe and the USA. But these applications are only the tip of the iceberg because this metal is also needed in the defense industry, smartphones, MRIs and many other high-tech devices. China processes the mined rare earths and has a near monopoly. Now that demand is increasing due to the energy transition and the BRICS countries are slowly breaking away from the US, alternatives should be sought. Today, we look at three companies that cannot do without rare earths.

Lanxess, Smartbroker, Helma Eigenheimbau - Great opportunities in uncertain times
The stock market is still defying negative omens such as recession, the strict monetary policy of the central banks and escalating geopolitical risks. Just a few days ago, for example, the German leading index DAX recorded a new all-time high. However, the negative voices concerning significant global stock market setbacks are increasing. Nevertheless, some companies have the potential to significantly outperform the market due to special situations.

Blackout! Energy shares urgently sought: Plug Power, Varta, Altech Advanced Materials, BASF - Solar, wind or hydrogen?
Now things are becoming clearer. Germany is unlikely to experience an energy shortage like a blackout, and gas supplies for the winter also seem secure, given a 20% drop in gas consumption compared to the average figures from 2018 to 2021. However, household prices remain significantly above the long-term average. Currently, energy suppliers are not passing on the purchasing advantages from the Leipzig power exchange to their customers. Wholesale gas prices have fallen by 85% since mid-2022, but these lower conditions are not reaching customers. What opportunities are there for resourceful investors?

Real estate - A golden future: Vonovia, BYD, Grid Metals
The numbers are shocking. The number of building permits in Germany plummeted by 32% in April compared to the same month last year - the sharpest drop since 2007. What is the reason behind this sudden halt in construction? What makes real estate future-proof today? And which stocks can profit? We take a look at the current trends for you.

Defiance Silver Corp., BASF, Ballard Power - Precious metals drive renewable energy to peak performance
Silver is essential to booming industries and is characterized by high conductivity of heat and electricity. Defiance Silver Corp., a Canadian exploration company, has achieved the broadest and highest-grade mineralization to date in its drilling at the San Acacio project in Mexico. Results from 4 of the 6 drill holes confirm the promising potential in the Veta Grande area. Meanwhile, BASF is collaborating with a Chinese green shipping partner to deploy its onboard CO2 capture system for decarbonization. Ballard Power is considering just the opposite. The Canadian battery manufacturer has doubts about China being a reliable partner. The call for money in the form of government subsidies makes them hesitant.

Breakthrough for the e-truck? Daimler Truck, Siemens Healthineers, Almonty Industries
For a long time, hydrogen was considered the energy carrier for heavy machinery. Now Daimler Truck has high hopes for a battery-powered model of its Actros. We explain the background, shed light on what lies behind Siemens Healthineers' share buyback program and also introduce a company that could benefit equally from advances in medical technology and the run on modern batteries.
