First Majestic, Silver Viper, Barrick Gold - Best prospects for precious metals
For the first time since December 1993, the inflation rate in Germany reached a value of over 4%. In the USA, too, the rate rose to 5.4%, although economists had actually expected it to fall. Nevertheless, the central banks are currently making no attempt to counter inflation by raising key interest rates. No one wants to jeopardize the tender little plant of the economy after the disastrous Corona year. Surprisingly at first glance, prices for precious metals as a "crisis currency" are not rising to the extent that would be expected. But there are clear signs that demand will increase strongly.

MorphoSys, Sativa Wellness Group, CureVac: Healthcare investments of tomorrow
The healthcare sector is facing a reassessment. For years, especially in Germany, health care has been "fiddled with" - a reform here, a change there, but in basic terms, little has changed in the system in recent years. With the new federal government, things could start to move. Regardless of ideological trench warfare, observers can state, especially under the impression of the pandemic, that innovative treatment methods and preventive care are the most important trends for the future, along with the digitization of the healthcare system. In this context, we present three companies and highlight their opportunities.

Varta, Standard Lithium, Sierra Grande Minerals, Nordex - The next hype rolls in!
In Germany, politics is becoming significantly greener! But what do the mobility concepts of the climate protectors look like? In addition to the publicly demanded reduction of unnecessary business flights, the bicycle would also be an alternative for 30-kilometer journeys. Fossil energy has already become 50% more expensive in 2021, and gas prices are going through the roof. There is still a high demand for energy in Germany because we are currently buying cheap nuclear power abroad. This is how it can go when a botched energy policy is associated with climate protection goals. No matter how things go, the world needs copper for modern technologies, and this raw material, along with lithium and other critical metals, is just terribly scarce. How are the typical industry players doing?

ThyssenKrupp, Graphano Energy, BYD: The hype returns
Prices are rising and the economy is booming. Supply chains are not yet running smoothly again, meaning that many basic materials are expensive. But the signs for rising raw material prices are also good in the long term: New technology is driving demand, both for entirely new applications such as batteries and for infrastructure. Buildings, bridges, wind turbines - all of these will remain a topic for years to come. We present three stocks that could benefit from these developments.

SMA Solar, dynaCERT, TotalEnergies - Good for the climate, good for your portfolio!
The signs of the times are climate protection: In America, Joe Biden is trying to push his Green New Deal through the legislature, China is phasing out the construction of coal-fired power plants, and in Germany, the Greens will most likely be part of the next government. Industry is also rethinking its position. Recently, an alliance of 69 leading German companies called for an "implementation offensive for climate neutrality" within the first 100 days of a new government. Signatories included heavyweights such as SAP, E.ON and Bayer. The following three stocks should get a tailwind from the new climate awareness.

BioNTech, Cardiol Therapeutics, CureVac: A decade's worth of ideas!
Biotechnology remains a hotly contested industry. In the fight against a wide range of diseases, biopharmaceuticals are the first port of call. It studies the relationship between drugs and excipients' chemical and physical properties and their form of administration in a living organism. By directly applying findings from biology and biochemistry, technically functional elements are identified. The central objectives are to research, improve and develop processes for the production of relevant substances. Often research goes nowhere; we take a look at the sector.

Square, BIGG Digital Assets, Advanced Micro Devices - Profiteers of the FinTech and crypto boom
FinTech and crypto are defining investment themes of today. Even though there are now efforts by politicians to curb or regulate cryptocurrencies, they will remain part of our everyday lives in the long run. For cryptos to be usable by the broad population, it is essential to make them easy and safe to trade and use as a means of payment. That requires certified trading platforms and reliable payment service providers. These are not the only ones who will benefit from the development; hardware manufacturers are also in great demand.

SAP, Kleos Space, Ballard Power - Igniting like a rocket
The storage and processing of data will be one of the themes of our society for the coming years. Big Data will create scientific advances and innovations, increasing the competitiveness of both science and companies across industries. Already today, innovative startups are working on the processing of larger amounts of data using artificial intelligence. The potential is enormous, the predicted growth rates gigantic.

BASF, Almonty Industries, Millennial Lithium, BYD - All sold out?
Anyone who can offer scarce raw materials today is in a fortunate position as far as business prospects are concerned. In particular, metals and battery raw materials are in high demand and have become a bone of contention in globalization. That is because many critical metals are majority-owned by China, meaning that the regime decides on potential allocations to foreign countries. Admittedly, the Middle Kingdom wants to stay in business with the West, so long-term contracts exist. Nevertheless, the domestic industry is naturally given preferential treatment; we can only hope for political stability and incremental improvements in the West. Who are the interesting players in the tight commodity market?

XPeng, Central African Gold, Volkswagen - It will not work without metals
Decarbonization is the magic word when it comes to achieving the ever-tighter climate targets. The phase-out of coal and the move away from fossil fuels, oil and natural gas is a done deal. However, considerable quantities of copper, lithium, cobalt and nickel are needed to ensure the energy turnaround, whether for electromobility, solar or wind technology. A limited supply is already matching the enormous demand. A stalling of ambitious plans is already preprogrammed.
