Rheinmetall, Defense Metals, NEL: What can work in this market
The current events in Afghanistan show that countries will have to invest in their defense in the future in order to meet geostrategic requirements. Currently, the Bundeswehr is fighting tooth and nail against bureaucracy and time to save as many Germans or local forces and their families as possible from the Taliban. Modern equipment is just as necessary for this as efficient decision-making chains. In this article, we look at two defense-related companies and conclude with the current situation with NEL's hydrogen stock.

Palantir, Troilus Gold, Nikola - Protection from black swans
Discussions to end the ultra-loose monetary policy of both the FED and the ECB and a reduction in monthly bond purchases are currently in full swing. Fears of possible interest rate hikes due to rising inflation recently sent the gold price into flash crash mode. In the process, the precious metal lost more than USD 100 per ounce overnight and stopped short of marking a new low for the year. Since then, the crisis currency has stabilized again and could generate a new buy signal in the short term. In the long-term, gold is likely to shine brightly again due to the current framework data.

Standard Lithium, Aztec Minerals, Orocobre - Take advantage of trading opportunities!
Raw materials are a prerequisite for any kind of production. The more there is produced, the more raw materials are needed. Precious metals are also suitable as an investment. Historically, they are always in demand when inflation rises. Commodity prices are thus subject to many factors. Some of which can neutralize each other, and some of which can reinforce each other. For example, the persistently high inflation of over 5% in the USA speaks for an increasing flight of investors into precious metals and, thus, rising commodity prices. While at the same time, the semiconductor crisis, which is currently occurring, is causing production cutbacks and idle assembly lines. That means that fewer raw materials are needed, which in turn puts pressure on prices. What is the best strategy now and which share has the greatest potential?

TUI, Troilus Gold, Lufthansa - The golden summer of travel!
The "Second Summer with Corona" has seen a resurgence in international travel, even though not all corners of the globe have returned to pre-pandemic levels. At least, however, the lockdowns have largely disappeared, restaurants are open again, and cultural life is gradually returning. The travel industry is experiencing this period in different ways. For example, first, there were problems with the allotments due to many hotel bankruptcies, but then these were increased at short notice and ultimately, special promotions had to be called to sell them off. In the end, price increases could not be implemented. People's travel behavior is changing in the long term, as is society as a whole. The travel industry is, therefore, seemingly only at the beginning of a far-reaching structural change.

Barrick Gold, Desert Gold, K+S - Dark clouds everywhere?
Since the publication of the July minutes of the FED meeting, the indices have been going down. Investors do not like that the minutes held out the prospect of a possible end to the financial stimulus at the end of the year. The inflation rate in the US was 5.4%, as in the previous month, and currently remains high. Following the port closure in China, it can be assumed that supply chains will continue to be disrupted. In addition, the Delta variant is causing rising incidences. Therefore, the market is currently nervous and anticipates a possible correction. Gold is still popular as an inflation hedge. We look at three companies today and see if dark clouds are gathering there too.

Geely, GSP Resource, Nel ASA - Taking advantage of the correction
After a ten-year high of over USD 10,500 per ton, copper is correcting and is currently scratching the USD 9,000 mark. In the short term, there is a favorable entry opportunity to participate in the next supercycle. Copper is the base metal of the energy transition. The high demand due to the switch to renewable energy sources is already being offset by an extremely tight supply. The result is rising prices in the long term.

Volkswagen, dynaCERT, BYD: Sudden turnaround ahead?
When Volkswagen CEO Herbert Diess visits Markus Lanz's talk show, the corporate leader exudes an esprit that almost comes close to celebrity founders from the USA. Even if a comparison with Elon Musk would be far-fetched - they seem more modern and flexible, the managers of German corporations. This flexibility is probably also necessary to lead huge corporations into the future in a time of change. The challenges are great: In addition to the uncertainty about the future, numerous smaller companies are also digging in their heels and want to wrest market shares from the big players. We take a look at three stocks that focus on the future of mobility.

BYD, Fisker, Kodiak Copper, E.ON: Copper remains the linchpin!
According to the Paris Protocol, the implementation of the climate targets is based on the conversion to electric drives, the use of renewable energies, and sustainable raw material management. In addition to the development of new raw material deposits, especially in the field of battery metals, the topic of recycling is coming up. Here, too, it is crucial which resources are used to recover the metals. Currently, some copper projects are under development, but it will take 2-3 years before they can deliver. Part of the whole castling will also be the power companies because they have to provide the planned power purchase for the coming years, and this could be tight, especially for Germany.

First Majestic, Palantir, Silver Viper - Precious metals - The calm before the storm?
After the flash crashes, calm has returned to gold and silver. Is it just the calm before the storm? Currently, gold is working its way through resistance in the USD 1,790 area. Between USD 1,830 and USD 1,840 would then be the next critical zone. The purchase of gold by Palantir is raising eyebrows. Interesting: The tech company specializes in the use of big data to predict future developments. So does it know more? In addition, First Majestic has published strong figures, and junior explorer Silver Viper convinces with drilling success and takeover fantasy.

Conico, First Majestic Silver, VW - This moves the prices!
The stock markets are trading near their all-time highs. The high inflation rates cause only selective worries. The crisis currency gold is in waiting mode. The economy is recovering, but some sectors are still experiencing supply bottlenecks, which in some cases are severely disrupting activity. In this mixed situation, which stocks are worth a closer look?
