CureVac, EXMceuticals, Formycom - the undiscovered profiteers of the crisis!
The Corona pandemic continues to be the dominant topic of our time. Not a day goes by when new achievements in the fight against the pandemic come to public attention. The battle against Covid-19 is becoming a multi-billion-dollar business. In addition to the well-known profiteers, the vaccine manufacturers BioNTech and Pfizer, Moderna and AstraZeneca and many smaller companies are also profiting. Their potential is still largely unknown on the stock market and is far from being fully exploited.

Saturn Oil & Gas, BP, Royal Dutch Shell: Now the right oil stock!
The stock market is like a pendulum that swings back and forth. The year 2020 was undoubtedly the year of electromobility - just one look at Tesla with its USD 600 billion capitalization is enough - and a year for the "hype topic" hydrogen, which though still needs at least 3 years of research and development for series production. Both are much-discussed alternatives to oil and other fossil fuels. Unfortunately, this comparison is somewhat misleading, as significant amounts of oil and coal are still used to generate both electricity and hydrogen. The drivers of electric vehicles like to pat themselves on the back because of their political compensation. Still, there is now a consensus in the research community that electric propulsion systems on a broad scale can in no way be described as a solution for sustainable economic activity. On the government side, of course, there are great tax incentives that probably reflect the intrinsic motivation of the e-belief community to a huge extent. However, if the battery goes on strike in the winter, fortunately, you still have the V8 in the private garage.

BYD, RYU Apparel, JinkoSolar - There is huge potential here!
As of today, retail stores in Germany are closed. Do you already have all your Christmas presents? If not, thank goodness there is an ever-growing selection of retailers on the World Wide Web. Online retail is booming, all the more so because of the recurring lockdowns. The trend to use less brick-and-mortar retail and more online retail runs through all industries. For this reason, retailers are increasingly turning to the Internet as a sales channel.

Barrick Gold, Desert Gold Ventures, Yamana Gold - the winners of the next gold price increase
Central banks are printing new money at a rate that can make you dizzy. No one can answer where this will lead. The Corona pandemic causes further worry lines with its profound effects on our daily life but also in terms of the labour market and economy. Given these general conditions, it is not surprising that gold, as a crisis currency, has marked new highs in the year. Even though there is a consolidation at the moment, the outlook remains positive. Which stock should you bet on?

DOW, Henkel, Royal Helium - Chemistry learns sustainability
The chemical sector is entering a new era. Value chains are being reshaped as sustainability, along with economic and geopolitical shifts, new technologies, and changing consumer demands challenge the bottom line and future profitability of companies. Covid-19 has led to even greater complexity and caused significant shifts in supply and demand. However, sustainability factors and ESG criteria also offer growth and differentiation opportunities for companies that redefine their value chains and business models, adapt to the circular economy, seize the opportunities of digital technology, and upskill their employees to the best of their abilities.

And more big players are about to enter this segment.

E.ON, Sartorius, Defense Metals: The scarcer the goods, the higher the price
Only in times of need do you realize what matters, and this is precisely what many businesses and private individuals are experiencing during the lockdown. Industry, too, can quickly find itself in need. The best example was the first few months of the pandemic when global supply chains broke down. Today, Asia is back on the growth path and the cargo ships are fully loaded. But the industry could still be in trouble - for example, if the energy supply collapses. Only recently, it became known that increasing electromobility is causing load peaks in the power grids - for example, after work. Utilities such as E.ON want to take countermeasures and, if need be, implement so-called "peak smoothing." This implementation plan would mean that charging stations would no longer be supplied with electricity when the grid load is high. Anyone still wanting to drive an electric vehicle in the evening would be left out in the cold.

Moderna, AdTiger, AstraZeneca - here we go!
The announcement of the second lockdown last Sunday is a disaster for brick-and-mortar retailers. After an extremely sluggish Christmas season so far, the new closures will turn off the lights for stores during the most critical time of the year. Of the total 560,000 jobs in downtown retail, up to 250,000 are said to be acutely threatened. The beneficiary of this disastrous situation is once again, eCommerce. However, in addition to the major platforms Amazon, Alibaba or Zalando, other Internet companies are also profiting from the online trend.

dynaCERT, NEL, Plug Power - Who is working for climate targets?
The goal of reducing CO2 emissions by 55% by 2030 is Germany's contribution to the Paris Climate Agreement. The aim is to limit global warming to well below 2 degrees Celsius by the end of this century - if possible, even to 1.5 degrees Celsius. To achieve this, emissions of greenhouse gases, i.e., primarily carbon dioxide (CO2), must fall significantly. So far, Germany is among the pioneers, having reduced emissions by around 31% between 1990 and 2018. A good start, but it is still far from enough. With Brazil, Australia and the USA, the leaders of significant countries, unfortunately, gave the rest of the world the cold shoulder. But the engineers of future technology do not care about the pronouncements from politics. They continue to research, for example, in Canada, Scandinavia and the USA - because the essential course settings happen now or never!
