Breakthroughs in the hydrogen sector - Nikola, First Hydrogen, Plug Power
Just last week, the German cabinet approved the update of the National Hydrogen Strategy from 2020, which is now being further developed to meet the increased level of ambition in climate protection and the new challenges in the energy market. Hydrogen is seen as the missing piece of the energy transition puzzle, and not just for Germany. Considerable progress has been made in the development of vehicles powered by hydrogen and fuel cells. At the same time, many innovative companies from this sector appear promising in the long term after the correction.

BP, Saturn Oil + Gas, Shell - Gains due to rising oil prices
The price of crude oil rose again last week. While Brent went out of trading on Friday at USD 85.45, the price for WTI stood at USD 81.53 per barrel. This could just be the beginning, as both Saudi Arabia and Russia have cut back production, which has tightened supply. In addition, US oil reserves fell by an unprecedented 17.1 million barrels, the most significant drop ever recorded. Only the downgrade of the US credit rating weighed a little on sentiment. But the risk that this will weigh on the economy seems small. The FED has let it be known that interest rates are not to rise for the time being, inflation is falling, and many company figures are above analysts' expectations. We, therefore, look at three oil producers that benefit from a rising oil price.

Saturn Oil + Gas, Vonovia, First Hydrogen, VW - How energy and propulsion are changing the markets, winners, and losers
Saturn Oil & Gas is adding three experienced forces to its leadership team. Janet Yang brings her expertise in finance and strategy, Andrew Claugus is a versatile petroleum engineer, and Grant MacKenzie will serve as Chief Legal Officer. Their knowledge and years of experience in the oil and gas industry make them valuable resources for the Company and its future development. Vonovia is severely undervalued due to the current real estate situation in Germany. First Hydrogen is making strides with a hydrogen refueling that covers a distance of 630 km, while Volkswagen is reducing the production of its electric car, ID.4. Let's find out who the winners and losers are in the stock market this time.

Uranium soon to be sanctioned? GoviEx Uranium, Plug Power, Nel ASA, AMS Osram - Can hydrogen solve the energy issue?
Somehow, energy policy has become very complicated. The EU sanctions coal, oil, gas and gold from Russia, but uranium remains untouched. Why? There is one who vehemently opposes this behind the scenes in Brussels: France! The German Minister of Economics, Robert Habeck, does not want to accept this. Of course, Germany no longer needs uranium for its decommissioned nuclear power plants, and the defense industry has its own sources of supply, which are not known to the public for security reasons. There is also the military coup in Niger, one of the world's major uranium-producing countries. What do investors have to pay attention to now?

CleanTech stocks about to rally? Standard Lithium, FREYR Battery, RegenX Tech Corp.
FREYR Battery could break out of its sideways trend next week. On August 10, the Company will report on its performance in the second quarter. Analysts see significant upside potential. At Regenx, too, there are many indications of an exciting second half. The first recycling plant for the extraction of platinum and palladium is currently being ramped up. In addition, the Company intends to earn money from emission certificates in the future. Tension is also rising at Standard Lithium. When will the feasibility study for the Arkansas project be completed, and will Germany's Lanxess then move to strike?

dynaCERT, BASF, Daimler Truck AG: Investors pounce on logistics stocks, new opportunities and profit potentials
dynaCERT is developing a patented technology that generates hydrogen and oxygen on demand and delivers them through the air intake system to improve combustion and carbon emissions in various diesel engines. The Company has sold 93 HydraGEN™ units to a logistics company in Guyana to support the country's ambitious goal to reduce CO₂ emissions by 70% by 2030. BASF has cut its investment budget amid a global downturn to preserve cash. Amid takeover rumors from chemical company Covestro, BASF CEO Martin Brudermüller calls for support from the German government to improve the competitiveness of European chemical companies. Daimler Truck has launched a share buyback program in which up to 82.3 million shares may be repurchased. The Company expects a significant increase in profits with higher revenue and sales.

Nikola Motors share unstoppable: Strong news also from BASF and Manuka Resources
Forget about a recession. These stocks are on the fast track or the verge of a breakout. For example, the Nikola share gained more than 15% in value yesterday. The reason was a new order in the US. This means that the shares of the manufacturer of zero-emission trucks have multiplied within two months. The Manuka Resources share could also be on the verge of a breakout. Due to the ramped-up gold production, exploration activities are expected to be financed through the next three years. An added kicker for the Australians could be their involvement in battery raw materials. As for BASF, the recent profit warning hardly affected them. Analysts express positivity, but the possibility of a dividend cut remains on the table.

Barrick Gold, Desert Gold, Deutsche Bank - Revolution through a new gold-backed currency?
As expected, last week, the FED and the ECB raised interest rates by 0.25% each in an effort to further fight inflation. The US dollar also showed strength. These factors are typically considered negative signals for the gold price, yet gold futures recently rallied and are preparing to test the all-time high. What could be the reason for this? One possible explanation could be the meeting of BRICS countries in Johannesburg from August 22 to 24. There are rumors that the participants want to introduce a new gold-backed currency to compete with the US dollar. Such a move could drive the price of gold to unprecedented heights. Additionally, many central banks have been increasing their gold purchases recently.

Well positioned for the future - BioNTech, Defence Therapeutics, Sanofi
There is currently a lot of movement in the capital-intensive biotech sector. After second-tier companies, in particular, were hit hard by the effects of tighter monetary policy last year and at times traded below their cash levels, many are now considered hot takeover candidates thanks to their innovative technologies. The well-heeled pharma giants must act to avoid missing out on future blockbusters.
