Plug Power share unstoppable! BYD and Globex Mining are on the rise!
Three shares along the energy transition value chain: Plug Power is currently unstoppable. Yesterday, the stock of the hydrogen pureplay again gained around 5%. On a one-month horizon, the gain is now around 50%. And it could go on because Plug Power had fresh orders in its luggage at yesterday's analyst day. The BYD share has also regained momentum in recent weeks. If it manages to jump above USD 33.50, the way is clear for the time being. Globex Mining is also worth a closer look. With this share, investors can add a broad commodity portfolio to their portfolio and thus benefit from the super cycle in a risk-reduced manner.

New record prices every day, but where is the perfect battery? Varta, First Phosphate, Volkswagen in focus
Without the next evolutionary step in traction batteries, it will probably be a long time before e-mobility can replace the combustion engine market. Short service life, limited flexibility and high production and disposal costs stand in the way of an economic approach, even if the red-green government likes to downplay these facts. In the end, politics has also failed to provide electricity in an appropriately "sustainable" manner and at an affordable price. Therefore, anyone who wants to promote ecology through politics must ensure that electricity prices are halved, and all currently required fossil components are eliminated from the energy mix. Otherwise, the enlightened consumer may revert to purchasing fuel-efficient internal combustion engine vehicles, even if they eventually have to import them into the EU at some point. Where are the opportunities for dynamic investors?

ThyssenKrupp, Power Nickel, Varta - Is nickel becoming scarce?
Nickel is a versatile metal that plays an important role in various industries. One of the largest applications of nickel is in stainless steel production, where it provides hardness, corrosion resistance and heat resistance. Nickel has also always been a crucial factor for batteries. Since the rise of electromobility, the metal has gained even more significance. Due to its ability to store high energy densities, it contributes to improving performance. Using it in the cathode achieves higher capacities and longer lifetimes, which is essential for electric cars. Given the growing trend towards electromobility, nickel is becoming an important raw material for the energy transition.

100% and more with these turnaround stocks! Plug Power, Globex Mining, Palantir. Take a close look now!
When investing in stocks, the goal is always to find low entry prices to optimize long-term performance. Unfortunately, buying downward-trending stocks promises less success than investing in stocks that constantly reach new highs. This principle embodies the wisdom of "The Trend is Your Friend." In applying this advice, one should let profits run and limit losses. A sensible risk diversification also requires a portfolio approach that spans countries, industries, and currencies. We look at three stocks from different sectors with promising return potential.

Heat pump madness and grid expansion: Vonovia, JinkoSolar, Grid Metals
A few weeks ago, Federal Economy Minister Habeck and Saxony-Anhalt Prime Minister Haseloff broke ground for the "SuedOstLink" converter. From 2027, wind energy will flow over the route to Bavaria for the first time. But the north-south connection is only part of the solution. Experts are sounding the alarm and consider massive investments in "the last mile" to be necessary. We take a look at what lies ahead and which companies could benefit.

Newmont, Tocvan Ventures, Rheinmetall - The lights are green
With a weaker-than-expected fall in inflation worldwide, plus a war in Ukraine that continues to escalate, the general conditions point to a long-term rise in the gold price above its all-time high reached weeks ago. With a threatened default in the United States, another argument for a gold bull market could now be added. Be prepared.

US payment default looms: PayPal, Citigroup, Globex Mining
According to US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen, the US could face a federal default as early as June 1. That is, if Democrats and Republicans in Congress fail to agree on a higher debt ceiling. Here we outline why the debate has come at an inopportune time, what dangers could arise for the markets and where opportunities await.

Plug Power, Canadian North Resources, RWE - Critical metals as a sticking point
The dream of a climate-neutral world still exists, at least in the minds of politicians. Thus, many companies that took on the transformation of the transport and energy sectors were also given plenty of advance praise. However, there are still problems with the implementation and the leap into the profit zone. One reason for the weakening margins is the raw materials needed for the energy transition, which are still at high levels. However, due to the scarcity of many critical metals, a reduction in base prices is likely to remain a pipe dream.

Mercedes-Benz, Canadian North Resources, Varta - Shortage of battery resources
Electromobility and the energy transition are essential to creating a more sustainable future. However, we need raw materials such as copper, nickel, cobalt and lithium to achieve these goals. These resources are an obstacle for many companies. Therefore, car companies are trying to secure access to these scarce resources to secure supplies for their production. In some cases, they are even developing their own batteries. The best example is Volkswagen, which wants to build 6 battery factories in Europe. So today, we look at Mercedes-Benz, analyze a possible supplier with Canadian North Resources and conclude with Varta, Germany's largest battery manufacturer.

Clear signals at BYD, Globex Mining and Plug Power
The growth rates of electric car companies continue to be enormous, as the recently published sales figures of the Chinese market leader BYD show. The trend will likely continue at least until the end of this decade. According to a forecast by Statista, there will be 116 million electric vehicles worldwide in 2030, representing an increase of 1,800% since 2020. However, the transformation of the transport sector is causing an enormous demand for industrial metals. For some critical raw materials, demand is already outstripping supply.
