BYD, 123fahrschule, RWE – Pure growth
The Chinese market leader for electric vehicles has defied all odds in recent weeks, shooting to a new all-time high despite the trade war and punitive tariffs. Rising sales numbers and continued growth are expected for BYD in the future. Likewise, the disruptor of the German driving school industry, 123fahrschule, is fully focused on expansion. With the placement of a convertible bond and the expansion of the board of directors, the path forward is clearly structured.

Takeover speculation and buy recommendations: Buy Bayer, BioNTech, and BioNxt Solutions stock after a 150% rally?
While takeover speculations are currently on pause for Evotec, they are gaining momentum for BioNxt Solutions. The Company aims to achieve significant milestones in the next 60 days on the road to marketing its lead product for treating multiple sclerosis and expanding into the billion-dollar anti-aging market. Even after the 150% rally, BioNxt shares are not expensive. The BioNTech share has corrected sharply in 2025. However, positive analyst comments could now herald a turnaround. Will the oncology pipeline lead to a breakthrough? On the other hand, Bayer is facing a significant defeat in USD. Further billion-dollar payments are looming. Analysts remain skeptical.

Bayer, Vidac Pharma, BioNTech – Setbacks and New Standards
Glyphosate and no end in sight. Bayer's 2018 acquisition of US agricultural company Monsanto continues to develop into a billion-dollar grave, with a court again ruling against the Leverkusen-based company. Billions in revenue also disappeared from the books of vaccine manufacturer BioNTech after the COVID-19 pandemic subsided. In contrast, an innovative biopharmaceutical company is setting new standards in treating pediatric brain tumors.

Barrick Gold, Golden Cariboo Resources, Deutz – Seeking a safe haven? Gold shines, Weapons boom!
In turbulent times, investors flee to safe havens – but in addition to gold, defense stocks are now taking center stage. The price of gold is climbing to record levels in the face of geopolitical crises, trade conflicts, and a weakening US dollar, supported by demand from emerging markets such as China and India. At the same time, defense companies are booming: military spending is rising globally, NATO commitments are fueling the market, and complex supply chains are exacerbating scarcity. Companies like Rheinmetall are shining with record share prices and competing with gold as a crisis investment. A new era of hedging is dawning, in which both precious metals and weapons technology are becoming symbols of risk-averse capital.

Nel ASA, Almonty Industries, Tencent – Merz and Trump as trend accelerators
The past stock market week was quite a rollercoaster. In addition to the approval of the billion-euro package by the Bundesrat and Bundestag, which helped the DAX to reach new highs at times, the activities of the old and new US President Donald Trump also caused high volatility on the global stock markets. In particular, defense stocks such as Rheinmetall, Steyr, and Deutz, as well as companies that produce the raw materials needed for rearmament, benefited and could continue their rally.

BYD, Volkswagen, First Phosphate: Who will shape the future of batteries?
China's electric giant BYD is outpacing Volkswagen. With 322,846 vehicles sold in February 2025, the Chinese automaker is putting the competition under pressure. In addition, Volkswagen continues to lose ground in China, facing a meager profit margin of just 5.9%. The race for e-mobility supremacy is bringing more players into the game: First Phosphate, a Canadian explorer, reports progress in the extraction of high-purity phosphate for lithium iron phosphate batteries. BYD is successfully using these raw materials in its innovative Blade Battery. Volkswagen also aims to score points with electric vehicles and strike back with the ID. EVERY1 model for around EUR 20,000 from 2027. However, access to raw materials remains the ultimate challenge. First Phosphate could become the bottleneck: With the coveted raw material phosphate, the Company could generate USD 700 million in cash flow in three years according to the PEA and thus become a key partner in the battery supply chain. Will this make a Canadian raw materials supplier the secret winner? Investors should follow developments closely.

Sustainability as an opportunity for returns: How Nordex, Globex Mining, and SFC Energy are shaping the energy transition
The energy transition is no longer just an ecological promise – it has become a return factor for savvy investors. Three companies are at the forefront of this development. The Nordex Group is driving the expansion of wind energy: With a new 94 MW order for Canada and wind turbines that can survive freezing winters thanks to an anti-icing system, the Hamburg-based company is demonstrating its position as a global player with over 57 GW of installed capacity. Globex Mining Enterprises of Québec acts as a kind of mineral bank for the energy future: Over 200 properties provide raw materials for batteries and technologies. With a recent buyback of gold royalties, CEO Jack Stoch is increasing the value of his company, much to the delight of shareholders. SFC Energy of Bavaria relies on innovation with fuel cells: The EFOY technology – "Energy for You" – supplies remote regions such as northern Canada with quiet, clean energy. A CAD 5 million order further underscores the success of the growing company. Sustainability and profit merge into a concept that inspires investors. Eco-friendly investing and generating returns – are these three stocks the key to the energy future?

250% Stock Rockets: Attention, it is taking off now with Nel ASA, naoo AG, Steyr, Mutares, and Hensoldt
The German economic stimulus package has been launched. The only thing missing is the approval of the Bundesrat, which is expected today. Public opinion is divided because the total of up to EUR 1 trillion in "special funds" is the largest debt incurred by the now 75-year-old federal government. The doubters see it as an enormous burden for future generations, while supporters emphasize that Germany has hardly invested in its future for many years and that the renewal backlog is now finally being addressed. This measure will increase the debt-to-GDP ratio by around 25%, while at the same time, the targeted measures in armaments, infrastructure, and climate protection will improve growth by around 0.2 to 0.3% annually with an increased state quota. The stock market celebrates, while the working population has to contribute around EUR 500 in interest annually as an additional tax burden. The election winners had promised significant tax relief. Where do the opportunities for investors lie?

Commerzbank, Desert Gold, Strategy – A EUR 900 billion debt avalanche – Which stock best protects against inflation?
Germany is at a crossroads: With a planned debt surge of EUR 900 billion for infrastructure and defense, inflation, rising interest rates, and a possible loss of the top credit rating are looming.

Three companies, three strategies: Which protects the portfolio better from the debt avalanche, and which stock has potential? An analysis between security, precious metals, and crypto risk.
