The banking tremors continue: With First Republic Bank and its distress sale to JP Morgan, it becomes clear once again that rising interest rates have the potential to plunge the economy into a deep crisis. Why? If the interbank business comes to a standstill, numerous zombie companies, of which there are still some, could also be in trouble. We explain in three minutes what threatens banks and the economy and why in the end, some shares could rise particularly sharply.

It continues to be uncertain times for Amazon employees. CEO Andy Jassy is cutting around 9,000 jobs in the group to keep the numbers stable. Tech rival Alphabet, on the other hand, can rejoice: for the first time, its cloud business is posting an operating profit, prompting the management team to buy back shares. The mining business is somewhat more consistent. Globex Mining has two pieces of good news for gold investors.

E-car surprise in China: Mercedes-Benz, BYD, Grid Metals

  • Mining

  • Nickel
  • Commodities

E-cars? Yes, please! At least, that is the case for Mercedes CEO Ola Källenius. He sees his company clearly focused on the electric drive - regardless of technology openness. This seems to be paying off at Mercedes: In the first quarter, the Swabians sold almost twice as many e-cars as in the previous year. But how far can this growth go? What do the absolute figures say? We make the comparison and outline investment opportunities.

Opportunity-oriented investing: Barrick Gold, Canadian North Resources, Steinhoff

  • Mining
  • Gold
  • Lithium

Inflation in the US is rising less quickly than expected - but what is the gold price doing? It remains at a high level. The reason is that the situation in many currency areas remains tense. The Eurozone, for example, is still far from inflation rates with a five before the decimal point. Investors should therefore continue to keep gold and commodities on their radar. We show which investments could be worthwhile.

The increasing demand for renewable energies to reduce global dependence on fossil fuels and combat climate change has led to increased scarcity. Metals such as copper, lithium, cobalt and rare earths are crucial for the production of batteries, solar cells and other renewable energy technologies. Competition for access to these raw materials has political, economic and social implications worldwide.

Mercedes-Benz, Canadian North Resources, Rheinmetall: Canada leads the way in raw material supply for electromobility

  • PreciousMetals

The energy turnaround is prompting German carmakers such as Mercedes-Benz and defence companies such as Rheinmetall to further expand their search for precious metals. In particular, the Stuttgart-based DAX-listed company has chosen the treasure-rich country of Canada as a cooperation partner for the guaranteed supply of nickel, lithium and cobalt. For explorer Canadian North Resources, such agreements are ideal as the Company pushes ahead with its 100% owned Ferguson Lake nickel, copper, cobalt, palladium and platinum project: further drilling is promising.

Blunt, clear text - that is what the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change had promised, in case governments still did not get it. The latest "State of the World Report" is clear. Hesitation is a thing of the past. The message: action is needed now and must be taken worldwide. This is the conclusion of the so-called synthesis report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which was presented yesterday in Interlaken, Switzerland. Leading scientists have spent the past week wrestling with more than 650 government representatives to lay things out as transparently as possible. The conclusion is quickly formulated: Full throttle for the Greentech industry!
