Biotech stocks in focus: Morphosys, Evotec, Bayer, BioNxt Solutions
Biotech stocks have struggled in 2022. In Germany, BioNTech has overtaken the previous heavyweights Morphosys and Evotec in record time. Morphosys shocked investors with data on its Alzheimer's hope. Analysts lowered their thumbs, and short-sellers discovered the stock for themselves. Evotec has been quiet this year. Analysts think the valuation is attractive, but meeting earnings guidance in the current year is not a given. BioNxt shares have jumped recently, and if the positive newsflow continues into 2023, a re-rating is possible. At Bayer, the pharmaceuticals division is also developing positively. Conclusion: investors should position themselves for the biotech year 2023.

Profit now from the energy transition - Rock Tech Lithium, Power Nickel, Shell
In the past, the internal combustion engine was at the center of the automotive industry, but this is now to change as quickly as possible in order to achieve the specified climate targets. Electrification is the magic word. However, there are high hurdles to overcome in implementing this. For example, it is still not certain whether the battery metals required for this, such as lithium, cobalt, copper and nickel, are available in sufficient quantities. Demand for the critical metals already exceeds supply. The beneficiaries are undoubtedly the producers of the scarce goods.

What to buy cheap? BYD and Uniper, BASF and Manuka Resources are on the rise
Even if BYD delivers close to 100,000 vehicles to Sixt in the next few years, this is not a guarantee for rising share prices. After all, major shareholder Warren Buffet is divesting his Chinese hobby horse. Does he know more? Is it a portfolio decision, or does he want to preemptively counter possible geopolitical surprises related to Taiwan? We do not know. The fact remains: Buffet has a lot of followers, and that is forcing the BYD price further and further down. Meanwhile, BASF reports good numbers and pushes further north with a seasonally firm DAX - who would have thought? We dive a little deeper.

Nvidia, Meta Materials, SFC Energy - Strong signs
After turbulent months on the technology stock markets with high markdowns, a bottoming out is taking place across the board. While many companies are reporting better-than-expected figures, investors are also buying oversold companies whose quarterly figures were below analysts' consensus. Due to the still high fluctuation range, high trading profits can be expected.

China as a risk factor? Here is how it looks: Uniper, TubeSolar, BASF
China has repeatedly been a source of risk in recent years: We think of the real estate bubble or the trade war with the US. Now, one of China's supposed plus points could become a risk factor: the authoritarian central regime in Beijing. In just four minutes, we explain what the nationwide protests against Chinese lockdowns mean and how investors can use foresight to gain information advantages.

Hydrogen from Qatar: Nel, Plug Power, dynaCERT and ThyssenKrupp, winners in H2 fever!
"The accelerated expansion of hydrogen supply chains is central to the transition to sustainable energy." Economics Minister Habeck welcomed the planned cooperation between German companies and Emirati producers of hydrogen. For this purpose, there is a new research cooperation between the Fraunhofer Institute and the Ministry of Energy of the United Arab Emirates. Of particular interest to Germany is the production, storage and delivery of green hydrogen to the EU. Whether the FIFA World Cup will help to deepen industrial relations in this field is not certain. But what is important is that hydrogen technology is finally gaining momentum worldwide. We take a look at the protagonists in the round-up for important investments.

Is this patent causing a rare earths quake? Nordex, Defense Metals, BYD
Wind power is a crucial component of the energy transition. Rare earths are used to increase the efficiency of wind turbines and electric motors. Dysprosium and terbium, in particular, are in demand. But although rare earths are anything but rare, they are only found in a few regions worldwide. Scientists at Darmstadt Technical University have now developed processes to use rare earths more efficiently. We explain the technology and shed light on three stocks related to rare earths.

Almonty Industries, ThyssenKrupp, Varta - Earning from growing tungsten demand
In 2021, 79,000 metric tons of tungsten were mined worldwide from existing mines. In 2015, production was still 89,400 tons. One might think that demand has declined and production has been cut back, but the opposite is true. According to the British Geological Survey report, demand will increase between 3% and 7% per year and will soon exceed available supply. But now, demand could increase significantly in the short term because US Department of Energy DOE researchers have found a way to charge electric cars in 15 minutes. This involves using a molybdenum tungsten niobate alloy as the cathode material instead of graphite. So we take a look at three companies around tungsten.

SynBiotic SE, Cardiol Therapeutics, Canopy Growth - Like hitting the jackpot
The final draft of the German government's key issues paper on the legalization of cannabis in Germany is ready, and final approval is likely to be a mere formality. For the companies concerned, this is equivalent to winning the lottery. The global cannabis market is expected to grow by 13.9% annually to USD 64.91 billion between 2022 and 2027. However, these profit increases have yet to reach the stock market. Some companies, for example, are trading below cash, while others lost more than 90% of their value in the correction that has been underway since 2019.
