Glencore, Globex Mining, SGL Carbon - Safeguard your money!
According to the Federal Statistical Office of Germany, inflation in Germany exploded to 7.9% in May. Since the beginning of the Ukraine crisis, the horrendously growing energy prices contributed a large part to the increase. The last time there was a similarly high level was in the 1970s on the occasion of the first oil crisis. Experts do not yet believe that this will ease in the coming months. In addition to high energy prices, the supply shortage of necessary goods and raw materials will likely contribute to continued high inflation rates. Selected investments in commodities are considered suitable instruments to hedge against rising inflation.

Access. How companies are poaching in Africa: BYD, Almonty Industries, JinkoSolar
To understand the world, one should take a holistic view. Sometimes, only news from Germany is not enough for that. In Asia, in particular, decisions of great significance are sometimes made that hardly play a role in the German media. For example, the huge investment planned by the carmaker BYD in six lithium mines in Africa. We rank the measure and discuss three exciting stocks.

Bayer, Globex Mining, RWE - Diversified shares perform strongly in tough times
Going all-in is extremely risky on the stock market. Because in the long run, you are not always right with your estimates, so a poor trade can quickly tear down the good performance. For example, a better approach would be to diversify the portfolio, spreading the investment over 10 different companies. Two big winners are enough to more than absorb several total losses. Those who want even more security can add stocks to their portfolio that are already diversified. Today we will take a closer look at three companies of this kind.

K+S, Globex Mining, BHP Group - Commodity stocks for the next supercycle
Decarbonization is taking its toll. If you want to get out of fossil fuels, you need alternatives. But these alternatives require raw materials, some of which are not available in sufficient quantities. The result is rising prices. Goldman Sachs and Wells Fargo see commodities at the beginning of a supercycle, which means that the rally in commodities will last longer than 10 years. Tight supply is now further torpedoed by the Ukraine crisis and supply chain problems visible in China's ports. It is terrible for the industry but good for commodity producers. Today we look at three companies that could benefit from a supercycle.

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.
