Barrick Gold, First Nordic Metals, Commerzbank – The gold rally is fueled by falling interest rates
The gold price is once again on track for a new all-time high. A number of factors suggest that the rally will continue. The FED is expected to cut interest rates twice this year, central banks have been buying significantly more gold since 2022, and geopolitical tensions are fueling increased interest in the precious metal. In addition, Trump's policies could drive up inflation again in the long term, which would put the USD under pressure. This would also help the gold price. However, it remains to be seen whether the US central bank would actually cut interest rates twice. We are therefore looking at 2 gold companies and analyzing Commerzbank, for which the interest rate environment is very important.

D-Wave, Power Nickel, Amazon - Copper as a key raw material for the technological revolution
The increasing demand for copper for new technologies such as quantum computers, power grids, and solar system expansion is putting pressure on the global raw materials market. D-Wave, a pioneer in quantum computing, requires copper for its highly complex systems. With fresh capital of USD 150 million, the Palo Alto-based company is continuing its growth strategy. In the immediate vicinity, the Canadian raw materials company Power Nickel is tapping into promising copper and precious metal deposits with its NISK project. The ongoing boom in raw materials is ideal for Power Nickel. The current drilling is delivering promising results from a nickel-copper-cobalt-PGE deposit and a high-grade copper-precious metal zone. Amazon, in turn, is pushing ahead with its zero-emissions strategy with its 58-MW solar projects in Japan. Here, too, copper plays a key role in the construction of the solar plants. The economic sustainability of individual countries depends heavily on their available raw material resources and suppliers. Three companies exemplify how copper is becoming the strategic metal of the digital transformation.

Nel ASA, Siemens Energy, F3 Uranium: Up to 100% upside potential or DeepSeek disaster?
The DeepSeek quake has also shaken the shares of Germany's Siemens Energy. In response, numerous analysts have spoken out. Opinions on the upside target price differ widely. Could the share price halve despite strong operating performance? By contrast, analysts see an upside potential of over 100% for F3 Uranium. The Company offers one of the greatest opportunities among uranium explorers. F3 is active in one of the world's most promising uranium areas; the resource is already highly valued, and the takeover fantasy is increasing. In contrast, Nel currently offers little upside potential. One piece of bad news follows another. The latest investment should also not be viewed positively. New lows are looming.

Almonty Industries, Rheinmetall, BYD – Profiting from the trade war with critical raw materials
With Donald Trump's re-election as president and the announcement of tariffs specifically on Chinese goods, a trade war seems inevitable. In December, the Chinese Ministry of Commerce announced it would no longer supply tungsten and other rare minerals to the US. This was in response to the US restrictions on the sale of AI chips to China. Without critical raw materials such as gallium or tungsten, many high-tech products can no longer be produced. These materials are used in semiconductors, which are incorporated into nearly all electronics, cars, medical devices, and many other areas.

New BUY WAVE! D-Wave, TUI, and Saturn Oil + Gas want to break through resistance
Quantum stocks have come through Monday's AI quake relatively well. This shows that investors are differentiating and not blindly selling. D-Wave has proven good timing with a strategic move. Is the next purchase wave coming? Saturn Oil & Gas also appears ripe for rising prices. The Canadian oil producer is planning a massive free cash flow in the coming years and is buying back substantial amounts of new shares. The stock can be worthwhile for traders and long-term investors. TUI also makes a positive impression. The tourism Company's stock is currently gathering strength after the price rally in the second half of 2024. Buy now?

Watch out! VW and BMW are turning, Benton Resources is stepping on the gas, while Nordex and Siemens Energy are on the sidelines
For the German economy, a 180-degree shift in economic policy is needed to stop the ongoing migration of industries abroad. However, this requires signs of a consistent refocusing on burning issues, which neither the parties with a claim to the government nor the opposition can really present. International investors have refocused on European markets at the beginning of the year, as reforms are expected. The premature praise for Donald Trump has generated new highs in the US, but now the NASDAQ seems to be running out of steam. Germany, as the laggard in terms of economic growth, offers very low valuations that have rarely been seen for longer periods. We highlight some opportunities.

4,000% stock Carvana: TeamViewer, Bitcoin Group, Zalando, and Credissential offer opportunities
Away from the big tech stocks, multipliers are waiting. One example from the US is Carvana, which has risen 4,000% in two years. Credissential aims to challenge the online used car dealer. The startup wants to provide brick-and-mortar used car dealers with a response against Carvana using artificial intelligence. Scaling is planned for 2025. If successful, the stock is much too cheap. In the DAX, Zalando offers significant upside potential. The online retailer is back on the growth path and plans to compete with Shein and Temu through the acquisition of About You, with analysts recommending a "Buy". By contrast, TeamViewer's stock lacks momentum. Analyst opinions are divided. And is the Bitcoin Group stock finally waking up?

DeepSeek hits right in the eye! Selective correction on the way! Watch out for Nel, Siemens Energy, First Hydrogen, and SMCI
The Chinese language model DeepSeek is stirring up the AI market. The entire tech sector is reacting nervously and showing significant price losses. Artificial intelligence (AI) is proving indispensable in many areas. Large language models like ChatGPT are already helping to solve complex tasks, and their further development promises enormous advances for the economy and society. The new Chinese language model is seen as a serious challenge to US dominance in AI and threatens the dominance of the hyped US companies. The AI assistant introduced on January 10th recently overtook rival ChatGPT as the top-rated free software application in Apple's App Store in the US. A shot across the bow for Nvidia and associated companies. Some green energy stocks are also coming into focus. Is it time to jump on board now?

Plug Power, dynaCERT, Daimler Truck – Now is the hour of blue hydrogen
"Drill Baby Drill," said Donald Trump in his inauguration speech. The US wants to produce more oil and natural gas domestically, but while oil is still in demand, the US already has enough natural gas today to export. What should be done with the gas when the storage facilities are full? One option is to use the surplus gas to produce blue hydrogen. The national energy emergency declaration will reduce regulatory hurdles, paving the way for projects like blue hydrogen production. As a result, the price of blue hydrogen will decrease. This is reason enough to look at three companies banking on hydrogen within their business model.

Rheinmetall, European Lithium, BYD – Drastic measures
The pressure from the former and current US president to increase defense spending among NATO partners remains high, which means that defense companies will likely face a revaluation. By contrast, subsidies for electric vehicles in the US are on the verge of being phased out. However, industry experts and analysts are convinced that the global trend towards electric mobility will remain unaffected. China remains the largest growth market for electric vehicles, with a share of 65% and 11 million vehicles sold, and the trend is rising. As a result, the demand for the basic raw material lithium is increasing.
