Split & Dividend: Allianz, Aspermont, Amazon - These Triple-A stocks are a joy to watch!
In volatile stock market times, investors are again focusing on the time-honored virtues of investing in stocks: stable business models, profits, cash flows, and dividends receive special attention. If a company can also announce investor-friendly buyback programs or splits, then it is usually a liquid and growing Company that has its investors in mind and is also prepared to share. In 2021, the payout ratio of the companies included in the German selection indices was around 42%. That means that almost half of the profits generated end up with the investor. Historically, this figure has fluctuated between 37 and 51%. We look at companies that stand out with special actions.

Valneva, Power Nickel, K+S: The perfect mix for traders and long-term investors!
As is well known, the profit lies in the purchase. On the question of how quickly and in what amount this should be realized, traders and long-term investors certainly have quite different answers. The current market phase is interesting for both types of investors. For many sectors, such as commodities or life science, the general conditions are good, so the wave of success can be ridden further. Increased fluctuations also offer short-term opportunities.

Plug Power, Barsele Minerals, Nordex - Prepared for the crisis
A ghost is haunting, not only in Europe. It is the ghost of stagflation. Stagflation means stagnating economic growth with rising inflation. Russia's invasion of Ukraine has now added another factor of uncertainty. The central banks are being challenged. While the Fed reacted by raising interest rates for the first time, the European Central Bank has shone by failing to act. The consequences for consumers are drastic, and inflation is likely to weigh on us for a long time to come due to the food and energy crisis.

Meta Materials, BYD, Deutsche Telekom - Revolution through metamaterials - which stocks benefit?
There have been revolutionary changes in industry throughout time. Be it Ford's assembly line production or the first computers that filled entire rooms - these innovations managed to transform people's lives permanently. Today, a computer doesn't need much space; when in doubt, a cell phone will do. Now, metamaterials are poised to trigger a new revolution. Read more about the advantages of metamaterials and which stocks could benefit from the new technology in the future in this article.

Where you can still place your trust: Deutsche Bank, Desert Gold, Newmont
Thorough research, thoughtful consideration, a sense of timing and trust are all necessary ingredients for sound investments. But time and again, companies disappoint their shareholders. Rarely does it get as bad as it did with Wirecard. Often there is a communication crisis, and announcements are just not kept. We present three stocks and analyze: Where can investors put their trust?

Rheinmetall, thyssenkrupp, Defense Metals: The scarce metals matter!
Some companies have been in the international spotlight since the outbreak of the Ukraine crisis. This is primarily because they are seen as having an important role in resolving and ending the armed conflict. It is generally assumed that the Ukrainian people can only free themselves from Russia's grip with international support. Thus, it is perfectly legitimate to make investments where no need has been seen in recent years. The peace dividend that has been withheld for years is likely now coming back into circulation - the Ministry of Defense is now rearming after years of consolidation! Who can profit from these orders?

Twitter, Alibaba, Triumph Gold - Inflation protection: Golden times for good stocks!
Inflation is galloping, with so-called "steepening" occurring in the bond markets. A steepening yield curve is historically often accompanied by a peak in the stock market in the following 9-15 months after the yield curve reaches a cyclical minimum. The last interest rate low was reached in August 2019 at minus 0.50% in the ten-year range, and it even managed to stay there until October 2020. The DAX reached its all-time high in November 2021 at over 16,300 points, 13 months after the previous interest rate low, then followed a 25% downward correction to 12,400 points. If inflation and the rise in interest rates do not moderate, things look bleak for the stock markets. Selection, therefore, remains key!

BP, Saturn Oil + Gas, Deutsche Rohstoff - Continued clear dependence
We can spin it any way we want and make further ambitious plans for a faster transition from fossil fuels to renewables. Still, currently, the global economy is dependent on oil and natural gas. And this is likely to remain the case in the near future, as seen from the significant rises in Brent and WTI crude oil. The primary beneficiaries of this trend - JPMorgan declared a supercycle for oil as early as June 2020 - are undoubtedly the producers of the black gold.

Where the music is playing now: BioNTech, MAS Gold, Bayer
Capitalism is the best system when it comes to distributing goods effectively. Supply and demand first make scarce goods expensive and then turn them into a promising business area. That is what happened with vaccines. Today, the International Federation of Pharmaceutical Manufacturers & Associations (IFPMA) is warning of an oversupply of Corona vaccines - two years ago, things looked very different. While biotech stocks such as BioNTech are being penalized, it is important to identify tomorrow's opportunities. Scarcity plays an important role here.

SAP, Kleos Space, TeamViewer - Profiting from technological progress
It is a first in world history. The currently ongoing Ukraine conflict is the first major war in which commercially available satellite imagery plays an important role in providing information about troop movements, military buildups in neighboring countries, and refugee flows. These images are provided by private satellite companies, which provide global geolocation data as a service using AI-powered technology and deliver it to customers such as governments, intelligence agencies or insurance companies. The market for satellite-based data is growing enormously, and company valuations still promise significant upside potential.
