New tax incentives for e-mobility in 2026 – The spark for BYD, Nio, Graphano Energy, and VW
The German government is planning to reintroduce an electric vehicle subsidy for private individuals. Currently, there are only purchase incentives for companies and tax advantages for purely electric company cars. In its coalition agreement, Berlin has now promised various purchase incentives for electric vehicles. This includes the reintroduction of an e-mobility bonus for private individuals. The government confirmed this plan at the German auto summit in early October. The plan is to support low- and middle-income households in making the transition to the new era of mobility. In addition to funds from the European Climate Social Fund, a further three billion euros will be available for this purpose until the end of 2029. The details of the subsidy have not yet been announced. Meanwhile, business with electric vehicles is still sluggish. Clearly, people are waiting for the new tax breaks. Which stocks are in focus?

AI, Bitcoin, and e-mobility in the eye of the storm! Opportunities at BYD, NEO Battery Materials, and Strategy
It is not just the stock markets that are running at full throttle! On days when Nvidia reports its quarterly figures, investors' nerves are on edge, and global power infrastructures are pushed to their limits. That is because the whole world is watching the pioneer of AI infrastructure, which briefly crossed the USD 5 trillion valuation mark in October before slipping back toward USD 4.5 trillion. Since then, trading in AI-related stocks on the NASDAQ has been dominated by profit-taking. The one-way rally appears to be losing momentum, but then again, it has been around for three years now. Amid this consolidation, three stocks in AI, battery materials, and e-mobility are offering attractive entry points. Read on to discover where new opportunities may emerge.

Mercedes-Benz searches, Graphano Energy finds, Siemens Energy uses: The three stocks for the next phase of energy storage
The global energy transition is heating up the market for critical raw materials. The spotlight is on a true jack-of-all-trades: graphite. Without it, lithium-ion batteries, which power electric vehicles and modern energy storage systems, simply would not work. But supply is lagging behind rapidly growing demand. This gap poses enormous challenges for supply chains. It is driving up prices, opening up exciting opportunities for companies – both those that source the raw materials and those that forge high-tech products from them. We therefore take a closer look at automotive giant Mercedes-Benz, raw materials expert Graphano Energy, and energy professional Siemens Energy.

Nel facing a shutdown? JinkoSolar weak! NEO Battery Materials' Next Big Moves!
Will the lights soon go out at Nel? After weak figures, the share price briefly rebounded. However, that rally has already faded, with the all-time low back in focus. Orders are seemingly being ignored by investors. The shares of NEO Battery Materials appear interesting for investors with a bit of patience. It is likely only a matter of time before battery stocks are rediscovered by the market. After all, they are essential for megatrends such as robotics, drones, and electromobility. NEO Battery has not only developed a new generation of high-performance batteries, but has also already secured orders and is scaling up production. And what about JinkoSolar? Will the quarterly figures provide a tailwind, or will the stock continue to underperform?

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.

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.
