Volkswagen, Carnavale Resources, Daimler - Prepared for the future
In addition to the global economic recovery, a long-term structural change towards a climate-neutral future is driving raw material prices. Copper is considered a key element for electromobility and renewable energies. It is used in the production of batteries, electric cars, solar modules and wind turbines. Other essential materials such as nickel, cobalt and lithium are primarily produced in China. Demand threatens extreme shortages and skyrocketing prices. Profit from this cycle.

BYD, Plug Power, White Metal Resources - Watch out at the platform edge!
At some point, the market must also consolidate! Almost daily, the S&P 500 had climbed to a new high in recent weeks. Despite individual inflation warnings from the central banks, the shares continued to climb blithely: "The trend is your friend!" - and so it is not a big deal to have to give up 2%. The time had come yesterday - investors took cover for the time being. Now it must be seen whether strong trends can withstand a temporary downturn. We look at three interesting stocks.

GSP Resource, Steinhoff, K+S - Commodities, gambler stocks and traditional companies
Commodities have had a hard time finding lovers in recent years, and when the oil price turned negative in the wake of the Corona Crisis, hardly anyone would have expected such a revival. Despite the crisis, almost all commodity prices exploded. Another trend emerged as a result of the pandemic - the so-called meme stocks, where private investors meet on Reddit and pick a stock to buy, no matter what the fundamentals say. Traditional companies didn't have it easy during the crisis either, and many found that their business models were not crisis-proof. Today we have picked out three stocks that belong to the above mentioned divisions.

Gazprom, Aztec Minerals, Steinhoff: Fast takeovers instead of lengthy procedures
Commodity investments are in demand, especially in times of sharply rising prices. Many investors focus exclusively on the big names. But there are also speculative second-line stocks that are suitable for investment.

K+S, Theta Gold Mines, Varta - Explosion in construction materials and raw materials!
The price rally in essential commodities continues. An acute shortage of building materials has caused some sharp price increases on construction sites. As reported by the Federal Statistical Office, in May 2021, solid structural timber increased in price by 83.3% year-on-year, roof battens by 45.7% and structural timber by 38.4%. The increased prices of wood and steel and industrial metal are driving up construction costs: reinforcing steel in bars was 44.3% more expensive in May 2021, and reinforcing steel mesh cost 30.4% more than a year ago. The main reasons for the rising lumber and steel prices are likely to be rising demand at home and abroad during the Corona pandemic and problems in the supply of raw materials. By comparison, the producer price index of industrial products rose 7.2% over the same period - the most significant monthly increase in 25 years. Who are the beneficiaries of the shortage rally?

Nel ASA, Barsele Minerals, Nordex - The profiteers of climate policy!
June had to offer strong repetition effects to the last bull market in January and February. The typical stock market favorites made substantial gains again, especially the so-called "climate stocks." These are stocks whose business models fit into the decarbonization strategies of governments. On December 12, 2015, the Paris Protocol was adopted, and one year later, the international climate treaty came into force. A milestone of the agreement was that China and the United States also ratified it. Trump formally withdrew from the Protocol in November 2020, but his successor Joe Biden rejoined on February 19, 2021, while authorizing USD 500 billion per year by 2025 for climate investments.

JinkoSolar, NewPeak Metals, TUI - Between uncertainty and opportunity
As an investor, it is not easy to find suitable investments at the moment. Either the share has already run hot and the key figures no longer justify an investment, or the shares are struggling with some kind of crisis. In the end, these crises also bring opportunities, but you have to be well informed and patient. The low of a consolidation is seldom caught, but one or the other price trend can be predicted based on chart technology. We have taken a look at three companies today that are fraught with a certain amount of uncertainty but offer opportunities.

BP, NewPeak Metals, Nordex: Three shares with energy
The energy turnaround offers excellent opportunities - that is what you read in many media reports. Indeed, regenerative energy has a great appeal - it does not produce any CO2 emissions. But this is not entirely true. The production of solar panels and wind turbines requires raw materials. Only when these are also produced in a climate-neutral way are regenerative energy sources genuinely sustainable. At the same time, oil and gas still play a significant role in the energy mix. We outline three companies involved in this complex of topics and also examine investment opportunities.

Infineon, Nvidia, BMW, Defense Metals - Exploding commodity prices ahead!
The explosion in commodity prices is foreseeable. Due to the fatal misjudgment of the governments on how the COVID pandemic will develop, the economies are currently in a supply shock. The months-long lockdowns have broken off some supply chains, and the breakdown in the Suez Canal has further aggravated the situation. Ever Given's wrecked ship is still stuck in the Egyptian Bitter Lake with 20,000 containers on board. Whether in cell phones, electric vehicles, non-fossil power generation and storage, or modern server farms - industrial metals are needed everywhere. For special applications, we even need rare earths, which makes it highly political.

Carnavale Resources, Rio Tinto, TotalEnergies - Commodities still in hype
Commodities are in demand, as seen from the Bloomberg Commodity Index, which reached a multi-year high on June 11. Among other things, this is due to China's enormous hunger for raw materials and the infrastructure program of the USA. Inflation fears also drive more investors to commodities, as there is no end in sight to the loose monetary policy. In addition, there is a rethinking of climate protection, giving rise to hypes such as hydrogen or e-mobility. These new technologies require raw materials such as copper or nickel, and so commodity prices are picking up significantly in almost all sectors. That's why we are taking a look at three exciting commodity companies today.
