Do not ignore ESG risks: Deutsche Bank, Ximen Mining, BYD
ESG is more than electric company cars, a paperless office and avoiding unnecessary air travel. Those who take the third pillar of the ESG approach seriously must also pay attention to good corporate governance. In the criteria of the index and data providers, good "governance" is about, among other things, management structures and sophisticated control instances at the corporate level. We explain why the "G" in ESG can bring tangible benefits to investors and how investors can invest in companies with good ESG criteria.

Alibaba, Netflix, Meta Platforms, Globex Mining - Find the best turnaround stocks in 2022!
Rising interest rates and inflation - Central banks worldwide now have to tighten the reins to keep demonetization from getting out of hand. Traditionally, technology stocks, which are otherwise in demand, tend to do poorly in such phases because they have higher financing costs. The higher discount rate makes corporate cash values less profitable than in low-interest rate environments. The NASDAQ-100 Index hit its high of 16,767 points in November 2021, just as the 10-year interest rate began to rise. Since then, the technology index has lost about 22%. But some stocks have more than halved in value. We take a closer look at the former high flyers.

Stocks for bargain hunters: Mercedes-Benz, Power Nickel, Netflix
Share prices are falling. The mix of inflation, the war in Ukraine and the Corona problem in China is weighing on share prices. Even positive economic data in the form of a friendly ifo Business Climate Index does not help. For savvy bargain hunters, falling prices in the face of friendly economic data may even be a good sign. If the market exaggerates on the downside, there could be opportunities in quality companies. We take a closer look at three stocks.

Rio Tinto, Ximen Mining, Barrick Gold - Shares to counter the crisis
The precious metal gold has not yet been able to reach a new all-time high in the current reserve currency, the US dollar. However, the conditions for this to happen soon are extremely favorable. The uncertainties in geopolitics, not only in Ukraine, as well as continued high inflation rates and even higher debt levels in many countries, are a dangerous mixture that should speak for rising precious metal prices. The central banks are called upon to act if it is not already too late. It is therefore advisable to at least partially protect your portfolio.

Investments of yesterday for tomorrow: K+S, Globex Mining, Netflix
It is better to have and not need than to need and not have - this rightly somewhat hackneyed saying is more topical than ever. Everything is in short supply, whether structural timber, metal fittings or inverters for photovoltaic systems. The first property developers are already reacting and are no longer planning so far into the future for new construction projects. The reason - galloping prices could otherwise eat up the margins. We explain how you as an investor can invest in this phase with the example of three companies below.

Valneva, Power Nickel, K+S: The perfect mix for traders and long-term investors!
As is well known, the profit lies in the purchase. On the question of how quickly and in what amount this should be realized, traders and long-term investors certainly have quite different answers. The current market phase is interesting for both types of investors. For many sectors, such as commodities or life science, the general conditions are good, so the wave of success can be ridden further. Increased fluctuations also offer short-term opportunities.

K+S, Barsele Minerals, Shell - Which commodity stocks belong in the portfolio?
Commodity prices are rising in almost all areas. To blame everything on the Ukraine conflict is too short-sighted. Fertilizer prices have significantly increased in the past year due to crop failures caused by natural disasters. Oil prices also began to rise last year. However, the sanctions against Russia gave the oil price a further significant tailwind. Gold has only been able to increase with the outbreak of the Ukraine war and is currently quoted at between USD 1,900 and 2,000. The high inflation should further increase the demand for gold. Today we look at three companies from the three sectors and analyze their potential.

K+S AG, Globex Mining, KWS Saat - Perfectly positioned
Society has less than 30 years to achieve the climate neutrality agreed upon under the Paris Climate Agreement. But this requires many metals and raw materials. Demand for lithium, copper and nickel will exceed supply as early as 2022. With the outbreak of the Ukraine conflict, there will be a further shortage and an explosion in prices. The beneficiaries of this trend are commodity producers and exploration companies. Globex Mining is a global commodity incubator and stands out with its business model.

K+S, Saturn Oil + Gas, Salzgitter AG - Growth market for raw materials
The specter of inflation has been growing since the outbreak of the Corona pandemic and the unlimited money printing by central banks. According to the minutes of the monetary authorities, inflation was only temporary. But far from it, inflation will remain permanent and hit even harder than feared. Support is also coming from the sanctions imposed against Russia. As a result, the supply of oil, gas and many other commodities is becoming tighter, and prices are skyrocketing. And do not take the word of a central banker again who wants to explain to you that this time inflation is only temporary.

K+S, Ximen Mining, BP - The trend continues
The commodity markets are bullish across the board. Sanctions, supply bottlenecks, and demand that is increasingly exceeding supply can be observed in many areas. Precious metals play a unique role as a crisis currency. What is negative for consumers and demanders is a profit booster for commodity producers - rising prices. These companies should be among the beneficiaries. Who will be ahead at the end of the year?
