New record prices every day, but where is the perfect battery? Varta, First Phosphate, Volkswagen in focus

  • Commodities
  • Technology
  • Rare Earth Elements
  • Battery Metals
  • E-Mobility

Without the next evolutionary step in traction batteries, it will probably be a long time before e-mobility can replace the combustion engine market. Short service life, limited flexibility and high production and disposal costs stand in the way of an economic approach, even if the red-green government likes to downplay these facts. In the end, politics has also failed to provide electricity in an appropriately "sustainable" manner and at an affordable price. Therefore, anyone who wants to promote ecology through politics must ensure that electricity prices are halved, and all currently required fossil components are eliminated from the energy mix. Otherwise, the enlightened consumer may revert to purchasing fuel-efficient internal combustion engine vehicles, even if they eventually have to import them into the EU at some point. Where are the opportunities for dynamic investors?

Nvidia, Defense Metals, Uniper - Valuable commodities for trillion-dollar digital market

  • Hydrogen
  • Rare Earth Elements
  • Energy
  • Digitization

Digital transformation is critical for industrial companies worldwide to remain competitive and gain strategic advantage. In this context, Nvidia and Hexagon have partnered to provide companies with a comprehensive set of solutions for accelerating industrial digitalization. Defense Metals, on the other hand, secured the supply of essential rare earths for the global energy transition with a successful hydrometallurgical trial and feasibility study. The Wicheeda project in British Columbia strengthens the local energy supply and offers strategic advantages in defence, security and green technology. Uniper, an international energy company, relies on biomass instead of natural gas for energy production. With the construction of a syngas plant in the Netherlands, the Company aims to replace natural gas with sustainable gas in chemical production processes.

Hydrogen picks up - Where profits lurk: ThyssenKrupp, JinkoSolar, Manuka Resources

  • Mining
  • Vanadium
  • Batteries
  • Energy

The hydrogen business is picking up speed worldwide. ThyssenKrupp plans to float its hydrogen subsidiary Nucera on the stock market before the summer break. This announcement is positive for the entire industry, as it indicates that ThyssenKrupp and the banks involved think the market is stable enough to get a reasonable price for shares in Nucera. We look at what is behind the IPO, which Greentech stocks are still interesting and which niche investors can profit disproportionately.

Ballard Power, Regenx Tech Corp., FuelCell Energy - Greentech with signs of life

  • cleantech
  • GreenTech
  • renewableenergies
  • Energy

Hope dies last. Despite the rosy outlook with regard to achieving the climate targets, most shares from the renewable energy and electromobility sector have fallen sharply in recent months. Especially companies from the hydrogen sector performed far weaker than the broad market. With an optimistic statement from Plug Power CEO Andy Marsh regarding the achievement of short-term sales targets, several stocks closed in the green by double digits. This momentum may now have heralded at least a short-term rally.

Despite the heat pump - uranium is in demand as never before! Rheinmetall, GoviEx Uranium, Palantir, C3.ai

  • Mining
  • Uranium
  • Software

Like a prayer wheel, green political ideas are raining down on the German industrial landscape - no more nuclear energy, but instead coal and gas. Historically high energy prices are to be accepted, even though wholesale prices are already below pre-war levels again and the energy mix is supposedly fed by more than 50% renewable energy. Because no one knows what the future holds for all this, major investment decisions by industry are now going against Germany. VW is investing EUR 10 billion in Spain, and BASF is doing the same in China. Valuable jobs that will no longer exist in Germany in the foreseeable future. What should investors keep an eye on to create at least sunny prospects in their portfolios?

Evotec, Morphosys, Defence Therapeutics: Strong biotech stocks

  • Biotechnology
  • Pharma

When thinking of strong biotech stocks in recent years, BioNTech likely came to mind initially. With the successful development of the COVID-19 vaccine, the Mainz-based company advanced to become the new industry high-flyer. But in the meantime, the Company has come back to reality. The coffers are bulging, but vaccine revenues are falling, and the development of the cancer pipeline will still take several years. Therefore, Evotec and Morphosys are currently celebrating a comeback. Analysts are hailing Evotec as the "Tesla of biotech," and price targets are rising. The Morphosys share has increased by more than 100% this year, and analysts believe the value is capable of even more. Due to positive news, investors can speculate on a rebound with Defence Therapeutics.

Standard Lithium, Grid Metals, Volkswagen - Lithium is essential for electromobility

  • Mining
  • Lithium
  • Electromobility

Electric vehicle sales continue to outpace sales expectations, driving demand for lithium, nickel and other battery raw materials. At the same time, the supply of these raw materials faces challenges, including technical problems with new types of lithium deposits, permitting procedures and social issues. This situation could lead to a 5-6 year opportunity for sustained higher lithium prices. First-to-market projects can achieve significant market valuation, so companies are focused on rapid implementation and revenue generation. We, therefore, look at two lithium companies and examine how Volkswagen plans to address the challenges in procurement.

AI reaches the old economy - Here is where it is happening now: Airbus, Star Navigation Group, BMW

  • AI
  • Software
  • Technology

Companies like Tesla and BYD have an advantage over BMW, Mercedes-Benz, and others thanks to their software. However, German industrial companies are increasingly hopeful they can catch up with the competition. The solution is Artificial Intelligence (AI). BMW and other companies aim to use software developers more efficiently and shift into high gear despite the shortage of skilled workers. There are also signs of an AI revolution in aviation. The mission: to reduce costs and increase safety. We look at what is at stake and how private investors can profit.

More than 100% with energy storage! Varta and Plug Power curious, BYD and Power Nickel mix up the battery sector!

  • Mining
  • Nickel
  • renewableenergies
  • Electromobility

There you go! In the last trading week, Varta and Plug Power turned up the heat and posted a price gain of almost 20%. After a long sell-off, this is the first technical rebound of the Fallen Angels. Long-term investors are wondering if there has been a fundamental change. Momentum traders are not interested in balance sheets, because rising prices attract buyers. We look at the shaken energy storage sector. Are there arguments for a buyback?

Disruption! From now on, everything will be different: PayPal, BYD, BioNXt

  • Biotechnology
  • Pharma
  • Electromobility
  • Software

What is now called disruption in the startup scene has always existed. It refers to creative destruction, cutting old ties and rethinking things from the ground up. Companies that create marketable products in this way have an edge over the competition - and score points on the market with their uniqueness. We present three titles.
