Out of defense, into gold!? Renk, Barrick Gold, Desert Gold
On Tuesday, German defense stocks were shaken briefly and sharply. In a flash crash, Renk, Rheinmetall and Hensoldt fell by more than 10%. This indicates that defense stocks have run hot. The future prospects for the companies are undeniably positive, but a consolidation is in order. Gold is an entirely different story. The price of the precious metal is at record levels, but the shares of gold producers are still a long way from their 2020 highs. This applies to the heavyweights like Barrick Gold and Endeavour Mining, but even more so to the explorers. One of the promising explorers is Desert Gold. The Company operates in an attractive region, is on the verge of becoming a Tier 1 mine producer, and is a takeover candidate. Barrick Gold is one of many companies that could make a move on Desert Gold.

Nel ASA, First Hydrogen, Nikola - Hydrogen on the rise
With the development towards a clean and efficient logistics industry, hydrogen is gaining importance as a forward-looking energy carrier. Continuous innovations in fuel cell technology and storage systems are making it increasingly competitive. This technological progress, coupled with government incentives to expand the necessary infrastructure, is paving the way for widespread adaptation in the logistics sector. Pilot projects are already validating the practical suitability and paving the way for more extensive implementation in the logistics sector. Recently, there have been positive signals from the three hydrogen companies we are looking at today.

BASF and Cardiol Therapeutics recommended to buy! TUI share with momentum!
BASF shares have gained over 30% within six months. But is the rally in BASF shares slowly running out of steam? The fact that the share did not rise sharply yesterday despite a significant price target increase suggests this is the case. Many experts see little potential for further price increases. The situation is different for the biotech company Cardiol Therapeutics. The analysts at Canaccord believe that the shares of the specialist in cardiovascular diseases could perform by around 200%. Financing is secured until 2026, and important study data is due in the current quarter. The TUI share has been on a roll for several months now. Will the share continue to rise with the increase in temperatures? Management is certainly optimistic about the future.

Attention: Biotech takeovers, after MorphoSys, now Bayer, Vidac Pharma, BioNTech and Pfizer are on the radar
Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been little movement in the biotech sector. However, after a challenging year in 2023, the sector was at least able to start the new year on a solid footing. The surprising takeover of MorphoSys recently got hearts beating again, as Novartis put a whopping EUR 2.7 billion on the table for the cancer specialist from Munich. Only months before, MorphoSys had been traded on the stock exchange at just EUR 700 million. The special market situation in this case was also characterized by the high short ratio, which led to an exorbitant rise in the share price of almost 400% in the final phase. Speculative investors are now keeping a wary eye on potential takeover candidates as the sector is once again attracting considerable attention. We are taking a closer look and searching for the next pearl.

Big Tech in focus - get in or get out? 100% with Singulus, caution for Nvidia and Super Micro Computer!
The direction for the second quarter is still uncertain in the stock markets. Big Tech stocks have so far more than met investors' expectations, but they have not risen across the board for two weeks. This is also causing the NASDAQ 100 index to enter a consolidation phase, which delivered a significant downward swing just last Thursday. The global markets are still characterized by ample liquidity and the hope that the central banks will cut interest rates by the early summer. However, the upward movement has become very selective. Fueled by a flood of money for the "Magnificent Seven", other major markets, such as the Nikkei 225 and the DAX 40 index, also reached new highs. However, investors should now be on their guard, as a correction could be lurking after the upcoming dividend round in April. We delve a little deeper.

Palantir, Globex Mining, Bayer - The trend is pointing upwards
After a successful first quarter of 2024, the DAX and Dow Jones took a well-deserved breather last week. In contrast, the precious metal markets for gold and silver continued their upward trend. Gold also reached new absolute highs of USD 2,354 per ounce. While gold producers such as Barrick Gold and Newmont remained in hibernation, they have been following the rising base price for several weeks now. There is currently also an opportunity for smaller commodity stocks to participate disproportionately in the upward trend.

Sell AI now and buy turnaround stocks: Nel ASA, Royal Helium, Linde and Plug Power
The stock market gives and takes away. When it comes to artificial intelligence and high-tech, investors have been able to make gains of up to 600% in recent months. Stocks such as Nvidia and Super Micro Computer are on the hit list of all fund managers worldwide. However, the first quarter is over, and there is no immediate reason to continue buying overpriced AI stocks. Last Thursday saw the first shot across the bow, with the NASDAQ 100 index plummeting by over 2% within three hours. Technically, the upward momentum is already waning, leading to increased profit-taking. If many investors do it simultaneously, it will result in a hefty correction. Do not wait too long; we present some interesting reallocation ideas.

Geopolitical uncertainties - Sibanye Stillwater, Saturn Oil + Gas and Barrick Gold benefit
In addition to the stock markets, which reached new highs last week, the direction of precious metals and oil is also clearly pointing upward. While gold also reached a new all-time high, silver has significant catch-up potential compared to its big brother. In the case of black gold, the current uncertain geopolitical situation could cause oil prices to break through the USD 100 per barrel barrier once again.

Volkswagen, Altech Advanced Materials, RWE - Use the dip in electrification companies for your portfolio
The future is electric. With the growing number of electric vehicles, energy storage technologies are also gaining enormous importance. These technologies form the backbone of a reliable, environmentally friendly energy landscape - they store energy from renewable sources and ensure that electricity flows even when the sun and wind are taking a break. Such progress not only promises a smaller ecological footprint but also a new era of energy independence. We have selected three companies that are helping with electrification.

Desert Gold Ventures, Barrick, Intel - Stagflation in the US as a gold price turbo?
Gold has reached another record level of over USD 2,300 per ounce. Investors are betting that the US Federal Reserve will cut interest rates later this year. Gold has been on an upward trend since mid-February. On the one hand, it has a reputation for maintaining or increasing its value during periods of inflation. On the other hand, it is seen as a store of value should FIAT money be significantly devalued - after all, gold has been considered a currency for millennia. For Desert Gold Ventures, the timing is right to complete its exploration drilling program in Africa. Demand for the precious metal is unabated. These are good times for gold explorers and producers. Barrick CEO Mark Bristow suspects stagflation in the US, which will further drive up the price of gold. Declining economy and rising inflation? It is not a suitable environment for US companies. One company seemingly lagging behind is Intel. The Company issued a profit warning this week. We take a look at what this means for investors.
