Is the banking crisis returning? LAURION Mineral Exploration, Deutsche Bank, and Barrick Mining

Strategy, FINEXITY AG, Allianz – The next rally is coming
After steep, sometimes parabolic upward movements, especially in AI-related technology stocks, fears of a major correction are currently circulating due to the high valuations of Nvidia, Palantir & Co. But do not forget that the stock market moves in waves, and every consolidation offers opportunities for long-term re-entry. Even in the crypto sector, this is likely to be just a blip in the long-term upward trend.

Fact check: After the correction comes the next rally! Ups and downs for Almonty, Aixtron, and Deutsche Pfandbriefbank
Zigzag! Buy, sell, buy again! What wild volatility we are seeing on the trading board! Palantir delivers dream numbers, exceeding analysts' estimates by 10%, only to drop 20% after a brief rally.

In the case of Almonty, the stock surged an explosive 700% in just eight months, only to lose 40% in the subsequent correction. For flexible investors, it is worth taking a closer look and not losing sight of the fundamentals. Here are a few ideas for rocking the boat or tucking stocks away à la Kostolany!

Barrick Mining and Formation Metals shine – While Commerzbank now faces other concerns
The current gold boom is being fueled by a powerful driver: falling interest rates. In this environment, interest-bearing investments are losing their appeal, while the protective nature of metal shines. Driven by macroeconomic upheavals, investors are fleeing to the safe haven of gold. This boom is catapulting mining companies like Barrick Mining and exploration companies such as Formation Metals into the spotlight. The situation is quite different for institutions like Commerzbank: for them, the same interest rate cuts mean margin pressure, exacerbated by political risks in Europe and takeover speculation. An analysis of two contrasting worlds.

Achieve sustainable green returns of over 50%! How do Deutsche Bank, RE Royalties, and Nordex do it?
With the Green Deal, the European Union has committed itself to the most ambitious sustainability program in its history. Through multi-billion-euro funding instruments, from the EU taxonomy to the InvestEU Fund and the Innovation Fund, Brussels is directing capital specifically toward green technologies, renewable energy, and sustainable infrastructure. For investors, the triggers are clear: stricter climate regulations, rising CO₂ prices, and the increasing commitment of institutional investors to comply with ESG standards are creating structural demand for green projects. Those who invest early in low-emission business models benefit twice over - from political support and growing social acceptance. So what makes companies like Deutsche Bank, Nordex, and RE Royalties the winners?

The stock for the Dubai boom: Emirates NBD, Finexity, eToro
Dubai is increasingly establishing itself as a global hub for financial innovation. The city combines growth-oriented policies with open regulatory conditions, allowing foreigners to purchase real estate, for example. At the same time, Dubai is promoting blockchain and the tokenization of assets. In 2021, the Dubai Land Authority launched a pilot project for blockchain-based real estate tokenization to enable fractional ownership and give international investors access to this asset class. In this article, we explain the business models surrounding Dubai, tokens, and the future of investing, and why a company from Hamburg is causing a stir.

Fed turnaround and Chinese restrictions: How Deutsche Bank, Globex Mining, and Barrick Mining are positioned
Two forces are currently driving global financial markets. On the one hand, there is the US Federal Reserve's monetary policy turnaround and on the other, China's restrictions on commodity exports. This dynamic is driving volatility and creating unique opportunities in the commodities and finance sectors. Against this backdrop, it is worth taking a look at three companies. We examine Deutsche Bank, which is excelling in its home market, Globex Mining with its huge commodities portfolio, and industry leader Barrick Mining, which is benefiting from historically high precious metal prices.

Tariff shock for Trump, Concerns about US banks, Gold hype: Globex Mining, Newmont, Bank of America
In recent months, many feared the US was on a path toward dictatorship. Fortunately, this is not yet the case, as demonstrated recently by a US federal appeals court ruling, which declared 75% of Donald Trump's tariffs to be illegal. The judges involved ruled independently of their political leanings – both supporters and opponents of the tariffs included Republicans and Democrats. While this is not such a bad thing for US political culture, it does harbour enormous risks: tariffs worth billions could now be reversed, and the US Federal Reserve may once again delay its planned interest rate cuts. One clear beneficiary of this uncertainty has been gold, with the precious metal reaching a new all-time high. We highlight the opportunities.
