Xiaomi, SunMirror, Geely - An incalculable risk!
Electric vehicles currently account for around 10% of the cars sold in Germany. Since the "VW Power Day," the race to see who can jump on the electric car bandwagon the fastest, has officially begun. Whether Volkswagen, BMW or Daimler, the manufacturers, also driven by politics, are overflowing with promises of how quickly they will replace gasoline and diesel with the battery. However, it is still unclear where the lithium for the battery cells will come from. Other required raw materials such as copper or rare earth metals are also in short supply and are produced almost exclusively in China. There is a threat of scarcity and thus a price explosion that cannot be calculated. You, too, can participate in this development.

A few days ago, the global corporation presented a strategy for its battery production as part of its Battery Day. But batteries need raw materials and these raw materials have become increasingly scarce in recent years. There was already a boom around lithium in 2016. Prices have calmed down again, but many a small supplier went off the market. This is now taking revenge. When Volkswagen wants to double the number of electric cars it sells, raw materials are in short supply. How can investors use the situation for themselves? Read on.

BYD, Almonty Industries, Varta: Comebacks and insider tips
Shares related to electromobility and hydrogen have recently shown that trees do not grow to the sky on the stock market. Many a stock that was highly praised just months ago has since lost half its value. At the same time, however, it is clear that the trend toward new drive technologies will continue. In the fourth quarter of 2020, around one-fifth of newly registered vehicles in Germany were hybrids and pure electric cars. Reason enough to look at stocks that could still have potential now.
