+500% return in 2025 with D-Wave, Plug Power, or BMW partner European Lithium stock?
500% price gain in 2 months! This is extraordinary but possible, as D-Wave's share price demonstrated at the end of 2024. Analysts believe that European Lithium's share price is capable of a similar price jump. Maybe not in 2 months, but there is massive upside potential expected by March. Experts believe that lithium can make a comeback in the new year. BMW partner European Lithium, with deposits in Austria and Ireland, should benefit from this. Additionally, the Company has other valuable resources, including rare earth elements. Plug Power shareholders are hoping for a hydrogen comeback. Can the turnaround succeed, or is insolvency looming at the start of the year? By contrast, quantum computing is likely to continue to electrify the stock market in the new year. So, will the rally continue for D-Wave & Co.?

Saturn Oil + Gas, Nel ASA, RWE - How three energy giants are redefining the future of global energy supply
Only a few days remain until January 20, 2025. The day the new US president will be sworn in and can push ahead with another energy turnaround. In North America, energy companies like Saturn Oil & Gas are expanding, and their products are driving the economy. With its blueprint strategy, Saturn ensures continuous value creation and is investing around CAD 320 million in further oil drilling projects for 2025. The clear financial strategy also provides more flexibility for the coming year. In Europe, the shift toward renewable energies continues. Nel ASA boasts full order books thanks to demand from Asia, but analysts remain cautious given the lack of hydrogen supply infrastructure in Europe. However, the new EU supply chain law could reshape the market conditions in favour of Nel ASA, as initial threats from Qatar indicate. As a global player, RWE continues to do business where it is most lucrative. The Company has achieved a milestone in the US, and in Italy, RWE is bringing a fresh breeze to the energy sector. Where investors should act now.

Trump, Bitcoin and a gold rally in 2025? Barrick, Thunder Gold, Agnico-Eagle and D-Wave in focus
Geopolitical tensions, war, inflation, spiralling national debt and clueless politicians – a set-up that hardly impacted stock markets negatively in 2024. Fueled by immense expectations of productivity gains from high-tech advancements, cloud computing, artificial intelligence, and high-performance computing in the coming years, valuations on the NASDAQ soared to unprecedented heights. The local DAX 40 index was also able to keep pace, albeit with reduced momentum. As the year ends just shy of December highs, major uncertainties in 2024 also sparked a rush for precious metals. A troy ounce of gold peaked at USD 2,790, while silver exceeded the USD 32 mark several times - prices not seen in years. Technical analysts now predict a super cycle for commodities. The key point: compared to the overheated high-tech sector, the current metal prices for mining stocks are more likely to produce upward surprises than profit warnings. The time is ripe for a selective entry.

Myriad Uranium - Uranium prices are exploding! What is the outlook for Nel ASA and RWE?
Uranium is increasingly coming into focus. Recently, the largest uranium producers, Kazatomprom and Cameco, revised their production forecasts downward, and this at a time when the world needs more energy. Data centres for quantum computing, crypto mining, artificial intelligence, and electromobility are driving the world's hunger for electricity. At the same time, some large tech companies are researching modular nuclear reactors, which could further boost the demand for uranium. While the uranium sector is performing well, 2024 has been a tough year for hydrogen and renewable energies. We look at one company from each sector and examine the prospects for 2025.

Will the corks be popping in 2025, too? 100% with BYD, VW, Power Nickel, MicroStrategy and Bitcoin possible
Since the tech bubble of 2000, there has been no year in which profits were so concentrated in just a few sectors as in 2024. Bitcoin, high-tech, artificial intelligence, and armaments were the blockbusters, while other sectors such as biotech, pharmaceuticals and automotive lagged far behind or even ended the year in the red. Nvidia, Tesla, D-Wave, Super Micro Computer, Rheinmetall and MicroStrategy were the protagonists of an incredible spectacle. Now, these stocks have priced in a golden future, in some cases with P/E ratios of over 100, and no one can seriously predict how things will continue here. Historically, the subsequent crash in the three years following the reference year 2000 resulted in losses of over 90%. The important difference: whereas in the past stocks were listed without any fundamental value, today it is predominantly world market leaders in their particular niche. Investors are betting on the fact that there will be no competition in the long term. Where are the opportunities for investors at the turn of the year?

dynaCERT, Mercedes-Benz and Volkswagen: Three strategies for the mobility transition
The automotive industry is undergoing a unique transformation: innovative technologies are creating new markets, while established European manufacturers are struggling with tighter environmental regulations. The Canadian company dynaCERT offers an applicable interim solution with its HydraGEN™ technology: the switchable retrofitting of conventional diesel engines with hydrogen technology enables significantly lower CO₂ emissions. Ideal for logistics, shipping and mining. dynaCERT is enjoying profitable new business in the Mexican mining industry. For Mercedes-Benz, Mexico is also the mobility country of the future. The Company is setting new records there with its bus business and dominating the sector, achieving a market share of 45%. In contrast, the German carmaker Volkswagen is suffering from a lack of demand for electric mobility at its home base. It plans to avert the impending crisis by cutting 35,000 jobs. Where should investors be looking now?

MicroStrategy buys Bitcoin! Nel ASA halved! F3 Uranium ultra-high grade!
The Bitcoin super-bull has struck again just before Christmas. MicroStrategy purchased an additional 5,262 Bitcoins, with an average price exceeding USD 100,000. However, the potential for a setback is increasing. The story is different for F3 Uranium, where new drilling results are described as "'ultra-high grade"'! This seems to prove analysts right. They see the fair value of the uranium explorer's shares as almost 200% higher than its current level. In contrast, experts have halved their price target for Nel ASA shares. For them, the former hydrogen high-flyer is no longer a buy, as the industry faces serious problems.

Renk electric tanks with Rheinmetall? Buy Nordex shares? XXIX Metal profits!
Is electric mobility coming to the battlefield soon? This is likely to be only a matter of time. For example, Renk is already working on hybrid models that are expected to offer clear advantages in the field and could also be used to electrify Rheinmetall tanks in the future. In addition, the new transmissions pave the way for autonomous driving tanks. Electric vehicles are driving the demand for copper just as much as artificial intelligence and renewable energies. XXIX Metal is benefiting from this. The Company emerged from a merger this year and has become a leading player. The copper content of the projects, which already exists, is convincing. And what is Nordex doing? The wind turbine manufacturer has reported a new order. The stock has remained relatively stable throughout 2024. Analysts see upside potential, but there are also risks.

STOCK FAVOURITES 2025: Will Rheinmetall, TUI and Power Nickel continue their price rally?
Will Rheinmetall soon be supplying warships and submarines as well? This is entirely possible and would further fill the already bulging order books. However, risks are also looming. At Power Nickel, the revaluation began impressively in 2024. The stock still appears to have plenty of significant upside potential, as the Company not only has large deposits of nickel and copper but also palladium, gold, and silver. Strong news flow is expected in 2025. And what about TUI? The stock has held above the EUR 8 mark after the figures. Management is optimistic about the coming year.

Volkswagen, Globex Mining, Novo Nordisk – Here are the opportunities for the coming year
The vbw commodity price index recorded a remarkable increase of 4.4% in October 2024 compared to the previous month – an increase of 18.4% year-on-year. On the one hand, this is surprising, as the economy has reportedly noticeably slowed down. On the other hand, geopolitical tensions seem to be causing overcompensation. Raw materials are the engine of the economy, and it is not for nothing that the price of copper is considered a leading indicator of economic activity. In times of export restrictions, it is clear how dependent the world is on China and Russia. Without the crucial raw materials, production comes to a halt. We take a look at three companies and assess whether they are well-positioned in the raw materials sector for the upcoming year.
