BYD's battery revolution, Pasinex's hidden treasures, Rio Tinto's green metals: How to crack the profit code of the energy transition
Driven by the global energy transformation, historic opportunities are emerging. At the forefront are pioneers who are redefining not only technologies but entire markets. They control the critical levers for the future, from revolutionary energy storage and the development of high-grade raw material sources to the sustainable mass production of key metals. These companies are the silent architects of change and offer what is arguably the most compelling growth potential in the coming years. Three players, led by technology leader BYD, followed by raw materials specialist Pasinex Resources and mining giant Rio Tinto, show how investors can participate.

New developments in drones – Is a growth spurt on the horizon? NEO Battery Materials, LG Chem, Albemarle
The war in Ukraine has triggered a boom in micro drones – and with it, a surge in demand for specialized battery technology. Ukrainian forces are increasingly relying on swarms of low-cost mini drones to counter larger unmanned combat aerial vehicles (UCAVs), such as Iranian Shahed drones. Several trends are emerging here for investors: demand for high-performance small drone batteries is soaring, while stable supply chains free of geopolitical risks are becoming more critical than ever. This is precisely where the up-and-coming company NEO Battery Materials comes into play.

Playing megatrends with the right stocks – NEO Battery Materials, XPeng, BYD
"The trend is your friend" – this is a well-known stock market adage that advises investors to take advantage of a stock's upward trend and let profits run. For investors, it is often worthwhile to focus on so-called megatrends - sectors expected to achieve dynamic growth over the coming years or decades, thanks to sustained high demand, for example, in terms of technology or socio-demographics. Artificial intelligence and robotics, as well as everything related to the defense industry, are currently very popular. Equally exciting are the areas of electromobility and battery technology. China dominates the market, and this strong position is unlikely to change in the foreseeable future. However, innovations from players outside China, such as those from NEO Battery Materials, are particularly exciting. The Canadian company is implementing innovative approaches and processes that could contribute to meaningful advancements in the global battery market.

BYD, Power Metallic Mines, and Nordex: How to benefit from industry leaders in the energy transition
A new industrial era is dawning. Driven by the global energy transition, there is an unprecedented demand for clean technology, powerful batteries, and the metals that power them. But this multi-billion-dollar arms race reveals a critical vulnerability: the scarcity of strategic raw materials and fragile supply chains. The key to success no longer lies solely in innovation, but in mastering the entire value chain, from the mine to the finished plant. We take a closer look at three companies at the forefront of the energy transition: BYD, Power Metallic Mines, and Nordex.

NEO Battery Materials: Making companies like Rheinmetall and Mercedes-Benz less dependent on China's battery market
The next wave of the industrial revolution is being driven by high-performance batteries. They are the lifeblood of booming sectors such as electromobility, autonomous drones, and AI-powered factories. Investors who back the companies developing and integrating these advanced energy storage systems are positioning themselves at the forefront of a megatrend worth billions. Battery innovator NEO Battery Materials is therefore increasingly coming into focus. Defense giant Rheinmetall is seeking improved batteries for its drones to enable longer flight times, while car manufacturer Mercedes-Benz is searching for next-generation battery technology that could finally help electric mobility achieve its definitive breakthrough.

Takeover fever! BYD is amazed, Graphano celebrates, and Lyft buys FreeNow from Mercedes and BMW!
If the electric vehicle market wants to overtake combustion engines, further advances in battery technology are still needed. Consumers need to be convinced, which means that economic realities should be at the forefront of their purchasing decisions. Major innovations require high-performance materials, including graphite, which is a key component of modern lithium-ion batteries. Graphite contributes to a greater range, higher energy density, and improved safety. At the same time, innovative approaches to silicon anodes and novel cathode materials are ensuring more efficient and cost-effective production processes. With the steady expansion of charging infrastructure, range anxiety among consumers is diminishing, further boosting the adoption of e-mobility. This highly dynamic innovation environment thus opens up attractive prospects for both technology developers and investors, as the industry is changing rapidly.

BYD and Graphano Energy are driving the energy storage revolution - even Nordex is benefiting indirectly
The energy landscape is undergoing radical change. The key no longer lies solely in the generation of green electricity, but in its intelligent storage and use. Electric vehicles are mutating into rolling power tanks that can stabilize grids, while extensive stationary storage facilities compensate for the fluctuating feed-in from wind and solar power. This revolution opens up massive savings potential for consumers and reduces the need for expensive grid upgrades. We take a look at whether BYD, Graphano Energy, and Nordex can benefit from this booming ecosystem.

Does Germany have a drone problem? Hensoldt, TKMS, Helsing, and NEO Battery Materials!
Drone alerts at German and European airports! At the same time, criticism of Germany's defense policy is growing louder. Is the federal government investing too much in tanks and other heavy equipment and too little in drones and counter-drone systems? This opinion is shared not only by the head of Germany's new drone star, Helsing, but also by several other experts. The situation is quite different in the rest of the world, where demand for drones is rising significantly. NEO Battery Materials is also benefiting from this trend. The Company recently secured an existing factory in South Korea for the production of high-performance batteries, and the first million-dollar orders are already in place. And what is TKMS doing? Its share price has slipped in recent days. Could large orders bring new momentum?

Trade war over? Not at all! Here is what's happening now with Graphano Energy, Porsche, and Volkswagen
The US and China have agreed to a kind of truce in their trade conflict. China's export restrictions on metals, which were only announced in October, have been lifted. In return, China will purchase agricultural products from the US, and the agreement will be renegotiated in a year's time. What US President Donald Trump is selling as a major victory is, at best, a temporary ceasefire. The past few weeks have shown that the preliminary agreement will change little for Western industrial companies: they have gained time and must make good use of it.

CAUTION with Nel ASA! TAILWIND for Standard Lithium and Graphano Energy shares!
Exercise caution with Nel ASA. The Norwegian company's quarterly results yesterday caused disillusionment - there are no signs of growth. And one figure in particular should set alarm bells ringing for shareholders. On the other hand, there is strong momentum for electric mobility. While debates about the phase-out of combustion engines continue in Germany, sales of electric and hybrid vehicles are rising – both globally and in Germany! Industry's challenge is that the value chain for battery technology remains firmly in Chinese hands. Companies like Standard Lithium and Graphano Energy aim to provide raw materials from the West.
