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.

SAP, MiMedia, Alibaba – Why Cloud Services are the Gold mines of the Future
Microsoft once again set a milestone in the second quarter of 2025 with a turnover of USD 69.6 billion. Driven by cloud services, which increased by 21%, and artificial intelligence (AI), which grew by 175%, the tech giant exceeded analysts' expectations. Azure and cloud services alone grew by 31%, while the AI business generated USD 13 billion. But the race has only just begun: Microsoft plans to spend USD 80 billion on AI data centers, which is just a fraction of the global investments that are expected to catapult the cloud market to USD 2.4 trillion by 2030. Who is footing the bill for the hunger for AI? And who stands to benefit most? The answers lie in the cloud.

D-Wave and naoo stocks escalate! Will the rally continue? HelloFresh after a price slide with a 100% chance?
100% in one week! D-Wave's stock made a spectacular comeback last week. Despite stagnating revenues and high losses, investors pushed the stock to its old record level of USD 10. Can the rally continue after such a strong outlook? naoo's stock has also rebounded. The newcomer to the German stock market combines the opportunities of social media and AI. The sell-off was likely exaggerated, and a takeover caused the price to jump. And what about HelloFresh? After a disappointing outlook, the stock fell sharply. Is a 100% price gain possible now?

After the NASDAQ correction – Hightech on the rebound: Palantir, Amazon, MiMedia, SMCI, and Intel on the rise
The NASDAQ correction was sharp and brief, with a 15% drop from 22,200 to 19,100 in just 4 weeks. In the context of a normal consolidation, that might be enough to bring the heavily overbought tech stocks back to normal levels. Unfortunately, however, there are also valid fundamental reasons that can be traced back to the official chaos of the new US President, Donald Trump. He is making wild tariff demands and withdrawing key resources from all international partnerships. This departure from normal political behavior could have a much more significant impact on the stock market, as global trade relations are faltering, while inflation and currency devaluation continue. Which tech stocks should be considered now?

Palantir, NetraMark, Alibaba – AI stocks set for an upward trend
For the first time in history, the German leading index, DAX, broke through the historic 23,000-point mark in the past trading week. There were also records to report for the precious metal gold, which jumped over the USD 3,000 per ounce mark. In comparison, US indices, like the Dow Jones or Nasdaq, are still in a correction cycle. However, signs of stabilization are emerging, particularly with the Nasdaq, which may present interesting entry opportunities after the massive losses in tech stocks.

Big Pharma's billion-dollar markets under pressure – NetraMark as the key for Bayer and Novo Nordisk?
In 2025, the pharmaceutical market faces significant challenges, including rising costs and regulatory hurdles. In this environment, companies like NetraMark, Bayer, and Novo Nordisk could make a significant difference through innovative solutions and strategic partnerships. NetraMark, a Canadian HealthTech company, is revolutionizing clinical trials with AI technology, which could be particularly beneficial in the areas of research into active ingredients for the central nervous system and in oncology. These are currently the biggest dropouts in industry. NetraMark's technology could increase the efficiency of drug development and open up new opportunities for investors. Bayer is focusing on targeted therapies in precision oncology and has a promising drug in development that specifically targets an overarching mutation in various cancers. Novo Nordisk is cementing its reputation as an innovator in the fight against chronic obesity, particularly with its successor to the obesity drug CagriSema. The Phase III REDEFINE 2 study achieved its primary objective, although the results fell short of high expectations. A closer look is now warranted.

Artificial Intelligence – Fabulous profits with Xiaomi, Credissential, D-Wave, and Palantir
It is incredible how politics can sometimes drive markets. US President Donald Trump had broken away from Ukraine aid due to a dispute with Volodymyr Zelenskyy, and the alarm bells were immediately ringing in Europe. Defense stocks went through the roof, and EU governments scrambled to come up with new special packages to rearm NATO countries, totaling up to EUR 800 billion. The flustered chaos must have amused Vladimir Putin. However, a correction is also currently taking place in the long-hyped AI stocks. Some of the losses here are quite painful. The stock market seems to have discarded its "one-way street decree". Accumulated profits should be secured as quickly as possible. We delve deeper into the context.

Is a 100% rally on the horizon? Evotec, D-Wave, and AI pearl NetraMark
The sell-off in the tech sector continues at the beginning of the week. If sentiment changes, a 100% rally could start. At least, that is what analysts at D-Wave expect. Overall, analysts take a positive view of last year's quantum star. The development of the AI pearl NetraMark is also positive. With its NetraAI platform, the Company aims to revolutionize the development of drugs. The first customers are in place, and the latest study data is promising. Even in the current sell-off, the stock wants to go up. The positive news is currently evaporating at Evotec. The stock is threatening to fall below EUR 6. Are there further write-offs?

Olalla! And here comes the consolidation! Are these already buying opportunities for SMCI, Benton Resources, Palantir, and Meta?
Whenever investors use the term "one-way street", the market tends to correct. This time, several factors were at play, such as failed peace efforts, rising debt, increasing interest rates, and the threat of tariffs from the Trump administration. All four points have a long-term recessive effect, as they weaken consumer sentiment and purchasing power due to higher interest rates and product payments. In the short term, they also weigh on overheated growth portfolios. It is, therefore, worthwhile to take a closer look at the well-known protagonists. After all, buying opportunities arise time and again – timing is key!

thyssenkrupp, Globex Mining, Super Micro Computer – Defense, critical raw materials, and the AI boom drive profits
As the world moves towards a new era of tariffs, resource wars, and technology hegemony in 2025, there are three companies that can profit from the current hot topics. The EU has not only expanded its list of critical raw materials but has also announced billion-euro investments in domestic supply chains. This shows how important access to critical raw materials is for keeping one's economy running. Thyssenkrupp is taking advantage of the demand for high-security technology for maritime projects, Globex Mining is controlling key raw materials for high-tech projects and decarbonization, and Super Micro Computer is cooling the servers that are making the AI boom possible in the first place.
