After the NASDAQ correction – Hightech on the rebound: Palantir, Amazon, MiMedia, SMCI, and Intel on the rise
The NASDAQ correction was sharp and brief, with a 15% drop from 22,200 to 19,100 in just 4 weeks. In the context of a normal consolidation, that might be enough to bring the heavily overbought tech stocks back to normal levels. Unfortunately, however, there are also valid fundamental reasons that can be traced back to the official chaos of the new US President, Donald Trump. He is making wild tariff demands and withdrawing key resources from all international partnerships. This departure from normal political behavior could have a much more significant impact on the stock market, as global trade relations are faltering, while inflation and currency devaluation continue. Which tech stocks should be considered now?

Hydrogen stocks make a comeback and attract billions in investment! Nel ASA, Nordex, First Hydrogen
Almost 100% in three days. The Nel share celebrated a brilliant comeback last week. The entry of the Samsung Group as a new major shareholder in the Norwegian company shows that hydrogen continues to have a future. Can the rally continue? First Hydrogen's timing could hardly have been better. Shortly after announcing its expansion into Europe, the EUR 500 billion package for infrastructure in Germany has been approved. Of this, EUR 100 billion is reserved for the Climate and Transformation Fund (KTF). Accordingly, stocks in the renewable energy sector ended the week on a positive note. First Hydrogen is not the only company hoping to get a piece of the billion-euro pie; Nordex shareholders are also hoping for rising revenues. Analysts see potential.

Palantir, NetraMark, Alibaba – AI stocks set for an upward trend
For the first time in history, the German leading index, DAX, broke through the historic 23,000-point mark in the past trading week. There were also records to report for the precious metal gold, which jumped over the USD 3,000 per ounce mark. In comparison, US indices, like the Dow Jones or Nasdaq, are still in a correction cycle. However, signs of stabilization are emerging, particularly with the Nasdaq, which may present interesting entry opportunities after the massive losses in tech stocks.

NASDAQ crash, inflation, and price shocks – Gold protects! Golden Cariboo, TUI, Lufthansa, and Carnival
Just three weeks ago, euphoria reigned on the markets, with the DAX, NASDAQ and EURO STOXX reaching new heights – now the tech rally seems to be over for the time being. Germany has voted, and a grand coalition must now take charge of the current issues. However, the challenges remain formidable, and exploratory talks are proving correspondingly tricky. It remains to be seen whether a new government will be formed soon. Donald Trump is taking a unique path in the US and is alienating all former allies. He has boldly taken up the cause of resolving the Ukraine conflict – but so far nothing has happened! China is reporting a slump in exports, while in Europe, the debt ceiling is to be relaxed in order to overcome the tough transformation of the modern age. Infrastructure has been neglected for too long, digitization is in its infancy, and now there is a dramatic need for rearmament. This smells like more debt, higher prices, and further currency devaluation - a fertile ground for gold investments, as the precious metal recently reached a new high of USD 2,950 while everything else is falling. What happens next?

Nel ASA, First Hydrogen, Volkswagen – The EU and Germany are pumping billions into hydrogen – who is cashing in?
As the global search for alternatives to oil and gas gathers pace, hydrogen could become the secret star of the energy transition. Green hydrogen could become a game changer not only for factories but also in the transport sector. The EU has now launched a multi-billion funding program – in Austria alone, 112,000 tons of green hydrogen are to be produced with it, and in Lithuania, 13,000 tons. One thing is clear: from 2027, it will be noticeably more expensive at the gas station. Experts expect price jumps of between 38 cents and 1 euro per liter. Suddenly, many are looking again more closely at emission-free drives. Innovative companies are driving this technology forward and positioning themselves as pioneers of an emission-free era. Opportunities are opening up for investors. Those who invest in hydrogen players early on could benefit from the upheaval in the energy and automotive industries. But which companies are setting the trends?

AGAINST THE SELLOFF: Renk "reloading", Barrick Gold positive, Desert Gold share set to multiply?
Safe havens like gold and armaments? Although the gold price was initially unable to benefit from Monday's selloff, buy recommendations are piling up in the sector. Analysts believe that Desert Gold's share price could multiply. Currently, the stock is still valued using a worst-case scenario, even though the reality in West Africa has improved significantly. Barrick Gold is also benefiting from this, with UBS recommending buying and expecting gold production to increase. Could an acquisition of Desert Gold play a part in this? Despite the massive price increases in recent weeks, defense stocks are holding up well in the selloff. For Renk, analysts are raising the price target, suggesting that the stock could rise further.

Artificial Intelligence – Fabulous profits with Xiaomi, Credissential, D-Wave, and Palantir
It is incredible how politics can sometimes drive markets. US President Donald Trump had broken away from Ukraine aid due to a dispute with Volodymyr Zelenskyy, and the alarm bells were immediately ringing in Europe. Defense stocks went through the roof, and EU governments scrambled to come up with new special packages to rearm NATO countries, totaling up to EUR 800 billion. The flustered chaos must have amused Vladimir Putin. However, a correction is also currently taking place in the long-hyped AI stocks. Some of the losses here are quite painful. The stock market seems to have discarded its "one-way street decree". Accumulated profits should be secured as quickly as possible. We delve deeper into the context.

Bayer, BioNxt Solutions, Novo Nordisk – The pressure is on
The biotech sector has started the new year with momentum, and the acquisition wave is heating up, as confirmed by Johnson & Johnson's acquisition of Intra-Cellular Therapies for USD 15 billion. The trend will likely continue as major pharmaceutical companies are under massive pressure to strengthen their portfolios. After all, drug patents worth over USD 200 billion will expire by the end of the decade. This will force the giants to make strategic acquisitions.

Is a 100% rally on the horizon? Evotec, D-Wave, and AI pearl NetraMark
The sell-off in the tech sector continues at the beginning of the week. If sentiment changes, a 100% rally could start. At least, that is what analysts at D-Wave expect. Overall, analysts take a positive view of last year's quantum star. The development of the AI pearl NetraMark is also positive. With its NetraAI platform, the Company aims to revolutionize the development of drugs. The first customers are in place, and the latest study data is promising. Even in the current sell-off, the stock wants to go up. The positive news is currently evaporating at Evotec. The stock is threatening to fall below EUR 6. Are there further write-offs?

Olalla! And here comes the consolidation! Are these already buying opportunities for SMCI, Benton Resources, Palantir, and Meta?
Whenever investors use the term "one-way street", the market tends to correct. This time, several factors were at play, such as failed peace efforts, rising debt, increasing interest rates, and the threat of tariffs from the Trump administration. All four points have a long-term recessive effect, as they weaken consumer sentiment and purchasing power due to higher interest rates and product payments. In the short term, they also weigh on overheated growth portfolios. It is, therefore, worthwhile to take a closer look at the well-known protagonists. After all, buying opportunities arise time and again – timing is key!
