Watch out for these Greentech and battery stocks: Varta, Manuka Resources and BASF in turnaround
Tesla is currently considering building its own battery factory in the US. The Company wants to operate the plant itself, and the battery giant CATL is to contribute the latest technology. For Tesla, the Texas location would be a welcome addition to its assembly plant for electric vehicles. After the decision to phase out internal combustion vehicles in the EU from 2035, international pressure remains high to finally initiate climate change. E-mobility is seen as a pathfinder. Innovations are needed in the battery sector because the performance parameters are not yet convincing. However, there are many profitable conspicuous features for shareholders in the round trip through the industry.

Winners of the supercycles - Rheinmetall, Defense Metals, BYD
Rare earths are indispensable for the production of high-tech products in the defence industry and electromobility due to their unique physical and chemical properties. China controls around 80% of the global output and thus has a key role in the global supply chain. Dependence on China poses a security risk, as the country could restrict access to rare earths or use them for political purposes. Therefore, diversifying supply chains and exploring alternative sources of rare earths is of great importance to ensure long-term security of supply.

BASF, Almonty Industries, Plug Power - The world is in upheaval
The Western world wants to break away from fossil fuels. These efforts have intensified since the Ukraine conflict. Europe, in particular, has realised how dependent it was on gas supplies from Russia. Globally, however, there is also a dependence on China for certain raw materials. This could be one of the reasons for the tensions between the USA and China, in addition to the conflict over Taiwan. The BRICS countries Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa have moved closer together in the last year and want to establish their own currency. With Iran, Argentina, Egypt, Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Algeria, six more countries are interested in joining. The world is in a state of upheaval. Therefore, we look at three companies that are part of it.

Positive signs - Nordex, Meta Materials, SMA Solar
The first quarter of the 2023 stock market year is already history again. Despite the uncertainties related to global geopolitical tensions and continuing high inflation, the most important indices were stable in the first three months. While the DAX was able to shine with a plus of around 14% since the beginning of the year, there is still a lot of catching up to do among the growth stocks.

Range of up to 2,000 km - Hydrogen comeback? Volkswagen, dynaCERT, NEL
Car manufacturers like Volkswagen apply for a whole series of patents every year. Many of them never become relevant. A few months ago, however, Volkswagen and a partner company filed a hydrogen patent that is quite something. There is talk of a fuel cell that, thanks to a ceramic membrane, is more efficient and enables ranges of up to 2,000 km for one tankful. Will the patent bring about the hydrogen revolution in private transport? We analyse the situation and look at three listed companies.

Altech Advanced Materials, Mercedes Benz, FREYR Battery - Stocks with longevity
The battery industry is currently experiencing a significant upswing, driven by the EU's plan to phase out combustion engines in twelve years. Companies like Altech Advanced Materials are working hard to improve conventional batteries' charging capacity. Mercedes-Benz is feeling the impact of losing its third-largest shareholder, demonstrating that German thoroughness is at odds with innovation. The Kuwaiti sovereign wealth fund has turned its back on the Stuttgart-based automaker, while Scandinavian battery producer FREYR Battery is currently doing much better. They have teamed up with four global players to explore strategic partnerships.

Panic at Vonovia and Plug Power - Barrick Gold and Tocvan Ventures shine
Concrete gold? Real estate stocks are currently in an absolute panic. The share of Germany's industry leader Vonovia recovered somewhat yesterday, but an end to the downward slide is not in sight. Analysts are also skeptical. The range of price targets is broad, and there is already speculation about an (emergency) capital increase. So buy or sell? The Plug Power share could also use some buying. From a chart perspective, the situation is critical. Fuel cells for smaller forklifts are now being offered. The situation is different at Barrick Gold. The group's share is about to break out to the upside. Price targets for gold of USD 3,000 provide for a good mood. Tocvan Ventures should also benefit from this. The gold and silver explorer published news about its project in Mexico yesterday, and the stock is waking from its slumber - there appears to be further air to the upside.

Saturn Oil + Gas, Bayer, Amazon - Big business on a growth path
The oil industry is booming again: since Russia has been severely sanctioned, EU companies are fleeing to their international production sites to operate cost-efficiently. The winner in the energy poker is Saturn Oil & Gas. The Canadian company is now presenting its results for fiscal year 2022. What is clear is how hard the Company has worked on substance to grow steadily. Change is also felt at Bayer in the wake of the CEO change. Research in the field of women's health is discontinued, only one new blockbuster is still in the pipeline, but it is a big one. The fact that the stock market is associated with fear and greed is shown by the jump in AMC's share price. Just one piece of news from Amazon takeover rumors has investors jumping at the chance.

Scarcity threatens energy transition - BYD, Canadian North Resources, Encavis
Critical raw materials are becoming increasingly important with the global challenge of climate change and the need to drive the transition to renewable energy. However, these raw materials, which are essential for manufacturing technologies such as solar cells, batteries and electric motors, are limited and often difficult to access. Securing a stable and sustainable supply of critical raw materials is, therefore, one of the key challenges of climate change.

Copper massively missing - what to do? Nordex, Orestone Mining, JinkoSolar - Greentech shares in the focus of investors
The energy transition in Europe can only work if critical metals such as copper, lithium or nickel remain available. For an almost complete electrification of road traffic from 2035 onwards, quantities of copper 3 to 7 times the current consumption are required. At present, however, hardly any new mines are coming on stream. It will therefore be exciting to see which copper source the EU will soon tap in order to supply industrial sites with the coveted metal. So the EU Council of Experts should urgently look for a few mining consultants and have the current decisions verified by the Fairy Tale Department. How do we manage it after all?
