DeepSeek hits right in the eye! Selective correction on the way! Watch out for Nel, Siemens Energy, First Hydrogen, and SMCI
The Chinese language model DeepSeek is stirring up the AI market. The entire tech sector is reacting nervously and showing significant price losses. Artificial intelligence (AI) is proving indispensable in many areas. Large language models like ChatGPT are already helping to solve complex tasks, and their further development promises enormous advances for the economy and society. The new Chinese language model is seen as a serious challenge to US dominance in AI and threatens the dominance of the hyped US companies. The AI assistant introduced on January 10th recently overtook rival ChatGPT as the top-rated free software application in Apple's App Store in the US. A shot across the bow for Nvidia and associated companies. Some green energy stocks are also coming into focus. Is it time to jump on board now?

Plug Power, dynaCERT, Daimler Truck – Now is the hour of blue hydrogen
"Drill Baby Drill," said Donald Trump in his inauguration speech. The US wants to produce more oil and natural gas domestically, but while oil is still in demand, the US already has enough natural gas today to export. What should be done with the gas when the storage facilities are full? One option is to use the surplus gas to produce blue hydrogen. The national energy emergency declaration will reduce regulatory hurdles, paving the way for projects like blue hydrogen production. As a result, the price of blue hydrogen will decrease. This is reason enough to look at three companies banking on hydrogen within their business model.

Rheinmetall, European Lithium, BYD – Drastic measures
The pressure from the former and current US president to increase defense spending among NATO partners remains high, which means that defense companies will likely face a revaluation. By contrast, subsidies for electric vehicles in the US are on the verge of being phased out. However, industry experts and analysts are convinced that the global trend towards electric mobility will remain unaffected. China remains the largest growth market for electric vehicles, with a share of 65% and 11 million vehicles sold, and the trend is rising. As a result, the demand for the basic raw material lithium is increasing.

Biotech - Here we go! 100% opportunities for Evotec, BioNxt, Bayer, Formycon, and Novo Nordisk!
Last week, the DAX 40 index reached a new all-time high of 21,520 points. At first glance, this sounds odd because half of the stocks are languishing at multi-year lows. However, the driving forces are the heavyweights SAP, Siemens, Allianz, Airbus, and Deutsche Telekom. They are pushing the index upward daily, putting ETF fund managers under pressure as they have to adjust the weightings accordingly. However, the more capital flows into the leading stocks, the more investors are looking for lagging stocks that could successfully turn the chart around due to operational turning points. We select a few opportunity stocks.

RWE, F3 Uranium, Nel ASA – New energy policy under Trump! Who benefits?
While former President Biden worked towards climate policy goals, Donald Trump is taking a different approach. His primary goal is to boost the economy, and the best way to do that is to make energy affordable. He wants to increase drilling for fossil fuels in order to lower energy prices. This puts pressure on renewable energies, especially wind power. Solar energy remains part of the energy mix. Nuclear power is gaining in importance. By 2050, nuclear power capacity is to be tripled, partly through the use of small modular reactors. This should improve the CO2 balance. In the hydrogen sector, the focus could be on blue hydrogen due to increased natural gas production.

Novo Nordisk, Desert Gold Ventures, Palantir – AI madness, Trump fuels the gold rush
Things have been moving at a rapid pace since the old and new President of the United States, Donald Trump, took office. Around 80 decrees were signed on the first working day alone. One of the Republican's goals is to make the US the "global hub for crypto and artificial intelligence". With the commitment of over USD 500 billion for the largest AI project in history, the industry is likely to face further appreciation. The price of gold has also increased, and it is now approaching the magic mark of USD 3,000 per ounce. In this context, producers and exploration companies are now likely to tap into their catch-up potential.

Volkswagen, Nova Pacific Metals, D-Wave Quantum – Is a trade war about to break out?
Donald Trump is the new president of the United States of America, and he is moving at a rapid pace. On his first day, he issued several decrees, and his inaugural address was also impactful. He announced tariffs on imports. Goods from Mexico and Canada will be subject to 25% customs duties. And tariffs of up to 60% are being considered for products from China. If the US isolates itself like this, China, in particular, could significantly restrict its raw material exports, and the trade war would be officially underway. The race for critical raw materials has already begun. Trump has already put out feelers to Greenland and Canada. Where will high-tech industries source their raw materials from in the future?

Better than Nvidia! Vistra, Siemens Energy, Nordex, XXIX Metal
With a gain of 264%, Vistra Energy outshone Nvidia in 2024. Who would have thought that a "boring" stock could increase tenfold in less than four years. But the stock is benefiting massively from the AI hype. The same goes for the German company Siemens Energy. Both are still unstoppable in the new year. At the beginning of the energy value chain, commodity stocks have catch-up potential. One promising stock is XXIX Metal. The Company focuses on copper in Canada and has takeover potential. The stock has also been listed in Frankfurt since this month and recently published positive results. Nordex could become a Trump loser. US business accounts for a noticeable share of the bulging order book. What happens next?

Top performers wanted! Nel ASA, First Nordic Metals, thyssenkrupp and Agnico-Eagle
With rising inflation since 2021, the price of gold has also risen significantly. Over the last 20 years, resourceful investors have always been able to compensate for the loss of purchasing power with an average return of a good 8.5% per year. The crux of the matter is that one could not trade the ups and downs in precious metals because only long-term holders can look back on gold prices around USD 500 in 2005. Today, 20 years later, new highs of USD 2,788 have already been reached. Agnico-Eagle is one of the most successful mines in the world, with its shares almost doubling in the last 12 months. Things have been going equally well for Agnico's partner, the explorer First Nordic Metals. A closer analysis reveals even more ideas for boosting your portfolio.

Almonty, Rheinmetall, Palantir - Strategic decisions in global competition
Geopolitical tensions and technological innovations are the driving forces behind the current market movements in the defense and AI sectors. The leading tungsten producer, Almonty Industries, plans to move its headquarters to the US to strengthen domestic raw material independence for the defense industry. The timing is ideal as China tightens trade restrictions on both raw materials and US defense companies. Meanwhile, in Germany, the Federal Cartel Office has approved a far-reaching German-Italian defense project between Rheinmetall AG and Leonardo S.p.A. - the aim is to strengthen European security, particularly with regard to ground troops. The US tech company Palantir Technologies is further expanding its position in the AI market and is increasingly using AI platform technology for commercial customers. We look at what investors need to know now.
