Barrick Gold, Triumph Gold, Standard Lithium: Get in relaxed with stragglers
Inflation is here - and it is not going away: Inflation rose by 5.4% in June within the USA compared to the same period last year. That is more than even pessimistic experts had expected in the run-up to the figures. Inflation is also picking up speed; compared with the previous month, inflation rose by 0.9%. The answer to this development may be gold. Shortly after the figures were published, the precious metal surged. We highlight two gold stocks and use the example of another currently very popular commodity stock to show why the time is favorable for gold now.

Gazprom, Desert Gold, Orocobre - Raw materials remain on course for growth
Raw materials are an important industrial commodity. If there are no raw materials, there are no industrial goods. When you think about this, it quickly becomes clear why commodities will always remain an important investment topic. Of course, there are phases in which some commodities are more attractive than others. The following three stocks can be used to take advantage of precisely this circumstance. Which stock has the greatest potential?

BP, Deutsche Rohstoff, Encavis - Is that it?
Nothing works without energy. But the world also needs to keep an eye on resource extraction and climate protection. ESG is a big investment topic. Even if the ideal target includes primarily renewable energy, that is simply out of touch with reality. Oil and gas producers are an attractive investment due to the high prices of the extracted raw materials. When will the next price jump come?

Pure Extraction, BallardPower, JinkoSolar, Siemens Energy - The makers of the future!
The most efficient ways to generate energy are being discussed almost daily. With nearly 8 billion people on the planet, we need to put energy-intensive mobility on a viable and sustainable footing. The shift to post-industrial economies and rapid changes in information technologies, for example, have greatly simplified the coordination of work. In terms of jobs, there is potential for greater flexibility and dispersion, according to Eurostat. The relationship between home and workplace is being redefined. Mobility and energy concepts that adapt to the new forms of work and production are therefore in demand.

Defense Metals, Varta, Nordex - Scarce metals are the new gold!
Whether gallium, chromium or rare earths - many metals are indispensable for modern technology. Where supply bottlenecks or shortages threaten, researchers have now determined the criticality of 62 elements in the most comprehensive analysis to date. As it shows, the supply risk is particularly high for the metals needed for the highly specialized tasks in high-tech devices. Iron, copper, nickel and tin, and almost all other metals of the periodic table, make our modern civilization possible. Most technical applications would not exist without them - from cars and computers to televisions and cell phones. How do companies deal with fragile supply chains and shortages?

SAP, White Metal Resources, Nokia - Markets facing a decision
The global economy is celebrating a turnaround, and corporate profits are bubbling. Consumer spending is jumping due to austerity during the Corona lockdowns. In addition, growth is fueled by billions of dollars in infrastructure projects from policymakers. Golden times for the stock markets, if it were not for concerns about rampant inflation. According to the Labor Department, consumer prices in the USA rose by 0.9% to 5.4% in June. It is the most significant price increase since August 2008. The FED is being challenged.

Newmont, Troilus Gold, Steinhoff: How much substance is needed?
Rising prices, ever higher national debts - many people are shifting parts of their savings into gold because of this. At first glance, that sounds plausible. Gold has retained its value over thousands of years and has outlasted states and monetary systems. But investors should not just assume the worst. While physical gold paired with silver is a good alternative in the biggest crisis, bars and coins show weakness when things don't end up quite so bad. If only a little inflation threatens and states and governments continue to muddle through in cooperation with central banks, physical holdings are not the best idea. It is here where shares in gold companies can score points. We explain how this works with two examples. Finally, we reject blunt gambling.

K+S, Silver Viper Minerals, First Majestic Silver - Something is happening here!
Whereas in the past central banks were quick to stop rising inflation through a restrictive monetary policy, this has now changed fundamentally. In fact, this is the hour of precious metals. Nevertheless, silver, a precious metal that is becoming increasingly important in industry, has been fluctuating between USD 20 and USD 30 for the past year. Below are three papers that can be used to take advantage of the cyclicality in the commodities sector.

BYD, GSP Resource, Volkswagen - Follow the trend
The future is to become climate-neutral and low-carbon. With the energy concept and the energy turnaround, Germany is phasing out nuclear energy and switching from oil to renewable energies. Today, the entire mobility sector is still highly dependent on oil, but this is now to change as quickly as possible. The car industry has already sung the farewell song of the combustion engine in favor of battery-powered vehicles. But we are only at the beginning of long-term development.

Enapter, NEL, Plug Power, FuelCell - Hydrogen under cross-examination!
The sharp rise in prices for heating energy and fuels keeps Germany's inflation rate at a high level. With an increase of 2.3% compared to the same month last year, inflation slowed slightly in June, but it had risen in each of the previous five months, reaching 2.5% in May, the highest level in almost 10 years. The efficient production of hydrogen and its industrial utilization would make our energy supply affordable and environmentally sustainable in the long term. Unfortunately, current technologies are still costly and not suitable for mass production. However, hydrogen remains a hot topic on the stock market. We take a look at the main actors in the H2 thriller.
