Deutsche Börse, Desert Gold, MicroStrategy - Save your money
At the latest, after the inflation figures for November, every investor should have become aware that inflation will not only remain short-term due to the Corona effect but much longer than expected. So, what to do when the savings in your account are losing more and more value year after year. Investment alternatives to protect against inflation are precious metals and the still controversial Bitcoin. Despite the current weakness of the two asset classes, there is probably no way around rising quotations in the long term - time to position yourself anticyclically.

Alibaba, Hong Lai Huat, Baidu: Asia now in turnaround!
No stocks in 2021 have been under as much pressure as the Asian tech giants. E-commerce giant Alibaba lost a full 50% YOY, while other stocks such as Baidu and Tencent suffered high double-digit losses in some cases. In the US, the stocks that were so popular in the past have been removed from the funds; currently, only tough fans are likely to be invested. Fortunately, the situation has calmed down somewhat in recent weeks. Even the Chinese regulator gradually realizes that the heavy monitoring of its industry is extremely slowing down the growth prospects of its economy. Some analysts have already downgraded China's 2022 to 2025 GDP growth by 1.5 percentage points. We briefly bring you up to date.

Meta Materials, SAP, Palantir - Well prepared for the future!
New technologies are entering the mainstream ever faster. Cloud computing, machine learning using artificial intelligence and autonomous driving are coming out of the research departments and are influencing the economy and society to a great extent. In materials management, too, research is being conducted into new materials that have the prerequisites for turning the tide. Metamaterials are artificial materials that have specific optical, magnetic or electrical properties that do not exist in nature. A rosy future lies ahead for the market leader.

BYD, Manganese X Energy, Daimler - Enormous demand for Tesla, BYD and NIO
Temporary inflation is history and has been laid to rest by FED chief Jerome Powell. During his appearance before the US Congress last week, he said the time had now come to remove the word "temporary" from the vocabulary of the monetary guardians. With inflation at 6.8% in November and the sharpest rise in US inflation in nearly 40 years, even the greatest optimist assumes a permanent state of rising prices. Among the culprits are commodities such as copper. These are likely to see a further increase due to the energy transition.

Standard Lithium, Defense Metals, Nordex - The demand for metals goes through the roof!
A possible explosion in raw material prices was already indicated in 2019. Due to low selling prices, some mining companies even reduced their mining output or stopped their exploration activities. Then came the pandemic, which put further pressure on both production and logistics, and many operations had to close for longer than expected due to adjustments in sanitation infrastructure. There is now also the supply chain problem in this already tight supply situation. Presumably, things will not get any easier in 2022 under these conditions. Which companies are making a name for themselves in this environment?

Barrick Gold, Tembo Gold, MorphoSys - With which merger will 2022 start?
The record in the volume of corporate takeovers had existed for 13 years. According to M&A experts, in 2021, it was broken as early as October. There has never been such a high volume of mergers as this year. A total of USD 5.3 trillion was spent on takeovers. Often, the offers were far above the current market price, such as the takeover of Zooplus, where US investors put EUR 2.8 billion on the table and paid about a 40% premium over the stock market price. Deutsche Bank does not expect acquisitions to decrease in the coming year. Today, we take a closer look at the Barrick Gold and Tembo Gold deal and take a closer look at MorphoSys, another takeover candidate.

Bayer, Almonty Industries, JinkoSolar - Still considerable room for improvement
Inflation is growing relentlessly. In November, Germany's barometer for price increases climbed to 5.2%; a level last reached 29 years ago. Rising energy prices and exploding commodity prices are found to be the culprits here. Given the energy turnaround, the materials required for this, such as lithium, copper and cobalt, are in fact close to their highs. However, tungsten, which will be essential for electromobility in the future, still has some catching-up potential.

BYD, dynaCERT, Nikola - Traffic of the future must protect the environment
Today, we are more mobile than ever before. The downside of this is the environmental impact. A good 20% of global CO2 emissions are caused by traffic. Relying on e-cars alone is probably too short-sighted. In the private sector, this is quite realistic, but the electric approach does not yet work in freight transport or only at a significant loss of performance. Hydrogen could play a major role in this area in the future, but hydrogen is still too expensive per kilogram, and mass production is still a long way off. Today, we look at e-mobility and hydrogen and an alternative that could help the transportation industry in the short term.

Daimler, Daimler Trucks, Ayurcann, TUI: Great yield gifts in the Advent season!
The so-called quiet time before Christmas is often associated with cozy warmth, gingerbread and mulled wine. At the stock exchange, the books of the large investors close and private investors optimize their capital gains tax by the realization of pending losses. Because from a pure tax point of view, losses from private sales transactions can be set off against profits; only the annual residual profit then has to be taxed. As a result, the autumn stock markets are often more stormy than many people think, and there is less of a sense of "quiet time," according to Christian beliefs. We pick out a few pieces of gingerbread!

Steinhoff, Desert Gold, China Evergrande, Wirecard - The penny stock rockets for 2022!
Penny stocks are not only cheap; there are usually also solid reasons why a value has been sold out or has been quoted low. In the case of Australian stocks, a low par value and the issuance of a great many shares are the natural reason for zero comma listings. Canadian explorers also have this quirk, but they often make their share volume more manageable by rolling it back. Investors can only get a concrete indication of "expensive or cheap" by studying the circumstances or closely examining the fundamentals of the Company. Wirecard was once valued at EUR 25 billion. However, after the insolvency announcement, the stock market now realizes that even if some payment licenses are liquidated, there will be nothing left for shareholders. We take a look at three selected stocks.
