    Steinhoff International: What gamblers have to endure

    Steinhoff International's stock has been a hot stock for several weeks. Since 2017, the Company has been embroiled in a legal battle. After accounting violations, it rained lawsuits against the Dutch Company with its operational headquarters in South Africa. In total, the lawsuits cover claims amounting to around EUR 8 billion. The Company itself wants to settle these partly in cash and partly in shares in Pepkor. Recently, Pepkor reported quarterly figures. These sent positive signals to gamblers around the penny stock Steinhoff International; if the offer is attractive, the probability of a settlement between the plaintiffs and the furniture group increases. The better the figures at Pepkor, the more likely plaintiffs will also settle with shares in the Company, so the thinking goes.

    But speculation on a settlement is by no means a foregone conclusion. First, there are several plaintiffs, and second, litigation per se is not a suitable environment for investments - too often, there are nasty surprises or an information advantage of professional investors. Yesterday, the Steinhoff share climbed from EUR 0.09 to EUR 0.13 within a few hours, only to correct back below the EUR 0.10 mark. Any gamblers who want to accompany this roller coaster ride should accept such fluctuations at least intraday. The exit should work with fixed limits and directly place these orders after purchasing a share on the market. In this way, the exit is guaranteed and there are no book profits.

    AdTiger: When does this Asian tiger start to jump?

    In contrast to highly hyped gambling stocks, investors can lay the foundation for later success with relatively unknown stocks at entry time. If small companies with an exciting business model can be discovered before the masses, a favorable entry price inevitably results in a lower risk. On the one hand, such stocks have a lower drop height, and, on the other hand, a "safety buffer" is quickly created on the market when more investors become aware of the respective story. The AdTiger share offers just such an investment story.

    The Company sees itself as an advertising platform that helps Chinese advertisers to place ads on the most popular networks. Specifically, AdTiger works with Facebook, Google, Yahoo and also TikTok. In addition to its involvement in China, AdTiger is now looking to India and expects further growth from their vast market. A key to more growth could also be the AdTensor software developed by AdTiger, which uses artificial intelligence and large amounts of data to control and optimize ad campaigns. AdTiger is currently valued at around EUR 80 million and has more than EUR 20 million in cash. As the value is presently trending cautiously sideways, investors can analyze the stock in peace and plan an entry in a considered manner.

    NEL: Here are the decisive marks

    Given the nervous price jumps of their favorite stock, shareholders of the hydrogen pioneer NEL are, at best, capable of deliberate action after the close of trading. Although NEL has gained more than 100% over a three-month period, the warning signals are increasing. Three times in the past four weeks, the stock has gone into reverse beyond the EUR 3.20 mark. Investors sitting on book profits in NEL but still believe in the share's long-term success can reduce part of their risk using partial sales given the large drop in the share price. The chart also provides guidance: While additional selling pressure is to be expected below the EUR 3 mark, the share could pick up speed again beyond the previous high from the beginning of January.

    Furious debt mania, a thorough portfolio check is necessary! Allianz, Blackrock Silver, Deutsche Bank and Commerzbank in focus!

    From one high to the next - it is not just equities that are booming in Europe, the US and China; it is mainly debt. First Corona, then Ukraine, now Israel - there is no end to the flood of borrowing. Armaments are now being financed on credit, while the accompanying recession is draining the coffers. Real estate is becoming a hot topic: New builds are hardly affordable for families, and old buildings are swallowing up thousands of euros in green-tinted renovation costs. The Federal Constitutional Court has now put a retroactive stop to the creative spending culture in Berlin, and a new budget plan is necessary. Keeping a clear head as an investor in this environment is challenging. We look at the opportunities in the financial sector, but perhaps precious metals will also be the anchor that saves the day.

    Climate change is increasingly threatening our lives, with few areas worldwide considered safe. Sea levels are rising, and polar ice is melting. Many regions are experiencing severe storms and increased rainfall, while others face growing risks of heatwaves and droughts. Since the Paris Climate Agreement at the latest, countries have been stepping up their efforts to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius. This has created a market that experts predict will increase eightfold by the end of the decade.

    Deutsche Bank, Globex Mining, Barrick Gold - Enthusiasm for gold is back

    Despite several interest rate hikes, the price of gold has recently risen to over USD 2,000 again. Even though the latest increase coincided with the attack on Israel, this is unlikely to be the reason for it. Instead, the high demand from central banks is responsible for the steady gold price. Within the first 9 months, the central banks bought a whopping 800 tons of gold. That is a new record. The geopolitical tensions could also turn more and more private individuals into so-called gold bugs, who are making provisions for crises and assuming that gold will continue to rise in the long term. As the Fed has paused interest rates, this could give the gold price a further boost.
