Bayer AG, First Phosphate, Porsche - In the fast lane with the right stock mix
Can sustainability and profitability go hand in hand? When looking at First Phosphate, a company that recently went public, this is true. The Company has found its place in the niche of LFP batteries for the global energy transition. Porsche AG also knows that electromobility is winning the race. The eMacan is selling so well that CFO Meschke has set a target return of 19%. Is that what Bayer's new CEO, Bill Anderson, is thinking? The conglomerate of Consumer Health, Crop Science and Pharma has more potential than the market is currently pricing in.

Buy or sell? TUI, BASF and Defence Therapeutics
BASF share a buy or sell? Analyst opinions on the chemical giant diverge widely. The DAX-listed company has just reported quarterly figures, but it did not provide clarity about the prospects. However, some speculate on a forecast increase. Analysts have not commented on TUI for quite some time. After the turbulence surrounding the capital increase, new impulses are being sought, perhaps through a deal with the German government? There is plenty of impetus for rising prices at Defence Therapeutics. The biotech high-flyer of the past months is increasingly positioning itself as a partner to BioNTech, Moderna and Co - and perhaps even a takeover candidate.

Commerzbank, Blackrock Silver, JinkoSolar - Banking crisis fuels demand for precious metals
May 3 was marked by the decision of the FED. The experts expect this to be the last interest rate hike for the time being. The interest rate increases of the past months have led customers to withdraw their money from the banks, which, however, had put the money into long-term government bonds that had fallen in value. Accordingly, First Republic was the next victim and the assets were sold to JP Morgan. Despite the interest rate hikes, inflation remains at a high level. This is one of the reasons why precious metals such as gold and silver have made significant gains recently. Silver is essential in many industrial sectors, especially in the production of solar panels.

Clear signals at BYD, Globex Mining and Plug Power
The growth rates of electric car companies continue to be enormous, as the recently published sales figures of the Chinese market leader BYD show. The trend will likely continue at least until the end of this decade. According to a forecast by Statista, there will be 116 million electric vehicles worldwide in 2030, representing an increase of 1,800% since 2020. However, the transformation of the transport sector is causing an enormous demand for industrial metals. For some critical raw materials, demand is already outstripping supply.

Starting signal for a share price rally? BioNTech, Bayer, and BioNxt Solutions ahead of important dates
Things can move fast in the biotech sector. The share price of Prometheus Biosciences shot up by a good 75% practically overnight. The reason: US pharmaceutical group Merck & Co wants to buy the Company specializing in treating immune diseases, thus strengthening its own product portfolio. Thanks to clever takeovers, Sartorius has also grown strongly in recent years, become a success story on the German stock market and risen to the DAX. The latest acquisition of the laboratory supplier is Polyplus. The French company develops DNA and RNA components for cell and gene therapies. Is BioNxt, also active in Germany, the next takeover candidate? In any case, the Company is taking big steps towards commercialization. Investors are also hoping for new impetus from Bayer and BioNTech. Both companies have important dates coming up. But analysts are skeptical.

The copper war! Nordex, Orestone Mining, Nel ASA, ThyssenKrupp - Shortage of copper weighs on Greentech expansion
The World Copper Conference 2023 took place in Chile in mid-April. According to the experts, the global energy turnaround requires huge investments in new industrial metal mines, especially copper. The red metal has become very rare, and the large deposits are working at their capacity limits. One figure made the conference participants turn pale. According to estimates by the International Copper Association (ICA), at least USD 105 billion must be invested to provide enough mining capacity for the upcoming demand. Converted into quantities, this means 6.5 million tonnes more than the production from 2022. Anyone hearing these figures doubts the successful solution to climate change. Some stocks are to be considered in this context.

Analysts in full swing - Nel ASA, dynaCERT, Enphase Energy
Technology companies, in particular, had their turn last week to present their first-quarter figures to the broad investor community. The Facebook group Meta exceeded its profit forecasts, and the technology giant Microsoft also impressed with its profit and turnover. In contrast, the picture in the second tier was mixed. The battery manufacturer Varta recorded significant losses. Another stock from the renewable energy segment experienced a massive sell-off, and analysts reacted promptly.
