Rheinmetall, Almonty Industries, Lynas - Rearmament, now!

  • Mining
  • Tungsten
  • RareEarths
  • armaments

The decision on the Leopard deliveries to Ukraine has already been made, but now the discussion is turning to the provision of further heavy guns such as the "Panther" super tank developed by Rheinmetall. In addition, the NATO states are discussing the provision of combat aircraft. Once again, an important point is being forgotten. The production of these weapons systems requires critical metals, whose market is primarily dominated by China. The next dependency is thus preprogrammed.

Nel ASA, dynaCERT, Plug Power - Hydrogen as the problem solver in the energy transition

  • Hydrogen
  • greenhydrogen
  • renewableenergies

Hydrogen is essential to the energy transition because it can solve many of today's problems. One of these problems is that wind and solar energy are difficult to plan. Since they produce irregularly, the surplus on sunny days or windy days must be stored. This is how green hydrogen is produced, which can solve the problem of fossil fuels in the field of mobility solutions. Current electric solutions are not yet convincing, especially for freight transport, but this is where most CO2 is produced. With hydrogen, vehicles have more range and, most importantly, shorter charging times. We look at three companies that have built their business using hydrogen.

Defence Therapeutics, Bayer, BioNTech - US investors love biotech stocks

  • Biotechnology
  • Covid19

US investors love biotech companies. So it is thanks to pressure from investor Jeff Ubben that Bayer AG's leadership is changing a year earlier than planned. Shareholders welcome the decision, with Bayer's share price rising a whopping 5% this week. The fight against cancer is the mission of the Canadian company Defence Therapeutics. They have taken another critical step forward in the pipeline to bring their cancer therapy to solid tumors. BioNTech co-founder Ugur Sahin is also showing commitment. The Turkish-born physician actively supports the crisis regions of the earthquakes in his home country and Syria. Find out how this relates to the Group's profits here.

Defense Metals, Rheinmetall, Encavis - New technologies cannot do without this critical raw material

  • Mining
  • RareEarths
  • Technology
  • renewableenergies

What do metal alloys, magnets, phosphors, ceramics, glass, catalysts and chemical processes need to function well? Rare earths - a critical raw material that is primarily processed in China. Without this raw material, there are no smartphones, computers, wind turbines or electric vehicles. There have been tensions between China and the United States for some time. If these tensions escalate and China stops its rare earth supplies, the Western world will have a problem. As demand for rare earths continues to rise, it is important to ensure sufficient supplies to meet the growing demands of the technology industry.

ams OSRAM, Meta Materials, Microsoft - Disruption within reach?

  • metamaterials
  • Innovations
  • AI

Disruptive technologies are new solutions that replace the previous success of existing technology, product or service or displace them entirely from the market. ChatGPT holds this potential. An AI that can change the way we search online and, in doing so, sweep Google out of the market. Innovations from Meta Materials also have such a market opportunity in aerospace, 5G, automotive and optics. In optics, the currently beleaguered ams OSRAM AG is on the trail of an innovation expected to hit the market as early as 2025.

BYD, American Lithium, Altech Advanced Materials: Shares in rally mode

  • Electromobility
  • Technology

The rally at the beginning of the year on the stock markets has surprised many investors. Among the winners are the shares of BYD, American Lithium, and Altech Advanced Materials AG. All three are already showing significant double-digit price increases after the first few weeks. And the chances are good that the positive developments will continue. That is because they are benefiting from the boom in electric mobility. In the current year, BYD is relying heavily on foreign expansion outside its home market of China. The first vehicles have now been delivered in India. In the future, the Chinese carmaker's batteries could contain lithium from American Lithium. In any case, the Canadian company has published a promising resource estimate, and the IPO of the uranium division may become the next share price driver. Altech Advanced Materials is working on a new generation of batteries with the Fraunhofer Institute. More and more investors are discovering the Altech share. The market capitalization is not high.

Banks bet 5,000 tons of gold - explosive power? Deutsche Bank, Alerio Gold, Commerzbank

  • Mining

In the US alone, more than 5,000t is at stake in bank balance sheets with the potential for dramatic price movements.
