NEL, Royal Helium, Linde, BASF - This is where it gets highly explosive!
How will the energy transition play out in Europe? With hydrogen is one way. It is costly to produce if you look at the issue sustainably. The raw material itself is seen as an alternative building block of a green future and, according to experts, could become one of the most important energy sources in the coming decades. The water element is available in abundance, but what is lacking is a truly environmentally friendly way to convert it back into hydrogen and oxygen. Even under the best conditions, green hydrogen costs about 10 times as much to produce as Russian natural gas, which also burns fairly cleanly overall. What is next for this sector?

Steinhoff, Tembo Gold, Nikola - Strong rebound potential
Which investor does not dream of investing in a stock anticyclically during strong price setbacks to earn disproportionately from the rebound? But the anticyclical investment strategy, in which one bets against the broad mass, is associated with considerable risks. Because of this, one should analyze the object of one's desire carefully to see the reasons for the rapid sell-off. Are they self-inflicted problems, as was best observed in the Wirecard example, or is the impulse coming from outside.

FuelCell Energy, Saturn Oil + Gas, Gazprom - The Renaissance of fossil fuels
There is no question that Germany has already achieved a great deal in terms of climate protection. In 2020, about 45% of its electricity came from renewable sources. However, the goal of becoming greenhouse gas neutral by 2045 is still a long way off. For this plan to become a reality, wind power still needs to be expanded significantly. The first half of the current year shows that it will not be possible to do without fossil fuels in the coming years. According to calculations by the Federal Statistical Office, over 56% of the total 258.9 billion kWh of electricity generated in Germany came from conventional sources such as coal, natural gas and nuclear energy.

Triumph Gold, First Majestic, Varta - Inflation is getting worse than we think - How to safeguard your assets!
Inflation in the US eased slightly in August from July's 5.4% to 5.3%. Nevertheless, this is a high value. It would be premature to derive a trend reversal from this. Far more dramatic are the rates of inflation in wholesale prices in Germany. As the Federal Statistical Office recently reported, these rose by 12.3% year-on-year in August. It was the most substantial increase since October 1974, during the first oil crisis. Investors should invest in tangible assets such as shares, real estate, commodities, or precious metals to protect their assets. Who offers the best risk-reward ratio?

Siemens Healthineers, PuriflOH, Fresenius, Novavax - Focusing on health!
The pandemic outbreak in 2020 ushered in a new era. People's health is once again moving to the center of attention. Politicians worldwide see themselves obligated to make public life safe, but whether this will be 100% successful remains questionable. Ultimately, it will depend on the commitment of private companies to what extent the existing health issues can be solved and by what means. On the capital markets, the healthcare sector has been sailing on the highest wave for months because the dangers for billions of people need to be reduced, and framework conditions for public life need to be created. Who benefits the most?

Valneva, Barrick Gold, Central African Gold: Inflation fears and liberation strike
High inflation keeps investors on their toes. In August, the inflation rate in the US remained at a high level of 5.3% compared to the same month last year, as announced by the Labor Department of the world's largest economy. Therefore, the increase in consumer prices was only slightly below market expectations and the increase in July of 5.4%. Compared with the previous month, prices were 0.3% higher. Inflation data usually brings momentum to commodity stocks - positive as well as negative. This is as true for Barrick Gold as for Central African Gold, with one on a good path to higher prices. Valneva shareholders would like to see higher prices after the crash. However, analysts remain cautious.

BYD, Kainantu Resources, JinkoSolar: Investing in green technology
Electromobility is on the rise and unstoppable. In July, a survey by E.ON showed that 66% of Germans could imagine buying an e-car. For around 70% of e-car sympathizers, climate protection is the most important argument in favor of an e-car. We highlight three stocks that can benefit from the trend toward more e-mobility.

Nel ASA, Enapter, Plug Power, FuelCell Energy - It is time to go all out!
Hydrogen is not only a climate-friendly means of propulsion for automobiles and heavy-duty transport. Large industries such as chemicals and steel can use hydrogen technology to reduce their consumption of natural gas. There are costs involved when converting to hydrogen, most of which are only feasible with political support. The German government's national hydrogen strategy fits in well here. But medium-sized industries, especially energy-intensive sectors, could also become much more environmentally friendly with hydrogen-based technologies. Which stocks are well-positioned here?

JinkoSolar, Defense Metals, Daimler - Sustainability only with rare earths
Rare earths are found in almost all new technologies such as smartphones, e-cars, etc. The leading supplier is China. Rare earths occur more often than one might think, but mining them is rarely economically profitable. Thus, China has a kind of monopoly position. With the trade dispute between the US and China brewing, more people realize that Western countries should seek alternative access to rare earths. If China limits exports, it would quickly lead to shortages. Accumulators or batteries would soon become scarce. Due to sustainability issues, the increased demand can already be seen in the increased prices for rare earths.

Steinhoff, Sierra Grande Minerals, Barrick Gold - Played into the cards
The latest inflation data in the world's largest economy, the USA, plays into the central bank's strategy cards. After 5.4% in the previous month, the inflation rate weakened moderately to 5.3% in August, breaking the trend that had been rising for months for the first time. The FED, which sees the hype in the inflation curve as temporary due to the recovery after the Corona Crisis, thus feels vindicated and continues its ultra-loose monetary policy with bond purchases of USD 120 billion per month in favor of growth.
