Alibaba, Aspermont, ProSiebenSat.1 Media - Digital business models on the road to success
Digital business models are crucial for the future. Digital technologies are becoming increasingly important, and companies have more opportunities to offer their products and services. In addition, these models also enable companies to achieve cost savings and work more efficiently. Even during Corona, businesses that had already developed digital solution approaches performed particularly well. We look at three of these companies today.

Aixtron, Altech Advanced Materials, Sixt - Prospects remain rosy
Despite the continued uncertain environment of the Ukraine war, inflation and rising interest rates, many companies are surprising positively in their full-year 2022 figures. In addition, forecasts are extremely positive despite pessimism regarding the struggling global economy. In terms of innovations, too, the trend is steeply upward. In this context, one German company in particular could rise to become a leading player in battery technology.

BioNTech, BioNxt Solutions, Bayer - Turn of the tide
Just how fundamental biotechnology already is for humanity was demonstrated by the development of the various COVID vaccines, which was extremely rapid by historical standards. Previously unknown companies such as BioNTech, Valneva and CureVac came into the focus of the stock market and were able to multiply within a very short time. Even after the pandemic has ended, research in the biotech sector is running at full speed. This is giving rise to new, innovative growth companies that could follow a similar trajectory in the future.

Nel ASA, TUI and Alpina Holdings: Shares with up to 100% price potential?
The reporting season is in full swing. The 2022 figures are an opportunity for investors to review their investment decisions and, if necessary, reposition themselves for 2023. For one of our three companies, analysts see up to 100% upside potential but also a "sell". The figures from Nel ASA were awaited with great excitement. Since last year, hydrogen companies have been good for a surprise every time they open their books - unfortunately, more of a negative one lately. Nel has also seen its fair share of good and bad news, and the first analysts have spoken out. At TUI, analyst comments are rather negative. Analyst opinion: Better than feared, but not good enough. In contrast, Alpina Holdings offers a favorable valuation and a dividend yield of 3%. Yet 2022 was relatively quiet for the real estate company from Singapore. In the future, margins and earnings should rise again.

Nuclear power, yes please! GoviEx Uranium, Rheinmetall, BYD, NIO - Important power for e-mobility!
Currently, 47 nuclear reactors in the Chinese pipeline are scheduled to come on stream within the next eight to ten years. In a global comparison, this puts Beijing at the top of the international planning list, followed by Russia and India. At last count, four nuclear power plants were under construction worldwide in 2020. In Germany, electricity generation from renewable energies continues to increase every year, while the electricity yield generated with the help of nuclear power continues to fall. This increases the costs for the German energy supply more and more, but the Berlin traffic lights are not interested in this. According to announcements by the German government, all nuclear reactors are to be shut down by April 2023 as part of the energy transition. What do investors need to pay attention to now?

A 100% rocket launched - Who builds the best battery? Tesla, First Phosphate, BASF and Varta
The Tesla investor day is getting closer. On March 01, the eccentric visionary Elon Musk will again address his disciples, this time from the new Gigafactory in Austin/Texas. Analysts went into the presentation of the annual figures with cautious expectations because many negative rumors were surrounding Elon Musk's electronics company: Fewer sales? Cars on stockpile? It came as no one had expected. Elon Musk delivered and, at the same time, taunted all the shorties who wanted to push his stock below USD 100 before the end of the year. It was a big mistake because the Texans even exceeded the analysts' estimates, and then there was no stopping them. Up 100% in only 6 weeks, and Cathie Wood can celebrate success with her ARK funds again. But Tesla is not alone among the 100% movers.

BYD, First Hydrogen, Daimler Truck - Battle of the drive systems
In recent years, the debate about the future of mobility has focused heavily on conventional passenger cars. Yet it is commercial vehicles that are responsible for the majority of emissions. Here, the competition between electromobility and hydrogen as drive systems for trucks and vans is now moving into the focus of the discussion. While electromobility has been on the rise for several years, hydrogen is also gaining in importance as an alternative drive system. In contrast to batteries, fuel cell vehicles can achieve a significantly greater range with hydrogen. Another advantage of hydrogen as a propulsion system is the short refueling time. Today, we look at three companies that are taking different approaches.

dynaCERT, Mercedes-Benz, BYD - Is hydrogen the better alternative to electromobility?
New government measures are driving the shift from fossil fuels to renewables. While some of these measures defy logic (combustion car ban in the EU in 2023), others are leading to market changes that have a meaningful impact. The US Inflation Reduction Act, for example, is funneling money into the expansion of a nationwide hydrogen fueling station infrastructure. This is excellent news for the logistics industry, as tough cost calculations will determine the pros and cons of new forms of propulsion for heavy-duty trucks and commercial vehicles. This represents a market opportunity for the Canadian company dynaCERT, which provides switchable hydrogen drives. Hydrogen weighs less than electric batteries, and on the road, every kilogram counts for the freight. The Mercedes-Benz Group, including Daimer Truck AG, is also betting on hydrogen. China competitor BYD, meanwhile, has to reckon with cancellations for EV batteries because the devil is in the details here.
