K+S, Globex Mining, Barrick Gold - Has the bottom been reached for commodity stocks?
Recession fears have had a grip on the commodities sector in recent weeks. Copper was quoted below USD 7,000 per ton again for the first time. Two other factors create additional pressure. First, there is the strong dollar. The last interest rate hikes failed to lower the inflation rate. At the same time, the strong USD is making raw materials more expensive, which has led to a drop in demand. On the other hand, the zero-Covid policy in China is slowing demand. Nevertheless, the outlook for commodity stocks is good. At the moment, many companies are taking a wait-and-see approach because of the uncertainties. If the recession does not materialize, prices will soon rise again. The three companies we are taking a closer look at today will also benefit from this.

BYD, Tocvan Ventures, Nel ASA, Plug Power - Money is flowing into these turbo stocks!
Some companies were under extreme pressure during the crisis and lost a good 2/3 of their share price. Today, it is essential to assess whether the business models can recover quickly after the crisis or whether the adjustment path could be a bit slower. Following the latest interest rate hikes, also in Europe, the economic environment could cloud over for the time being. That is because higher interest rates also make financing much more difficult. We look at a selection of potential "turbo stocks" that should immediately be back on investors' lists if momentum picks up.

BYD, Globex Mining, Nio - Unbridled growth due to climate change
Looking through the mainstream media regarding climate change, the German government around Baerbock, Habeck and Co. is calling for an even greater and faster transformation from fossil to renewable energy sources. In this context, the greatest challenges are evident in the transport sector because it is precisely in this area that CO2 emissions have actually risen since 1990, despite the development of more energy-efficient vehicles. According to experts, the all-encompassing solution for radical change is the electrification of the automotive sector. It will require enormous quantities of industrial metals in the coming years. The few producers are likely to profit enormously from the high demand.

Mercedes-Benz, JinkoSolar and Globex Mining with top news - Nordex needs money again!
Rising commodity prices have recently pushed inflation in Europe to over 7%. With the ongoing conflicts, economic forecasts for global growth are now also clouding over further. The German Federal Bank expects increasing economic risks in the second half of the year and consequently reduced demand for raw materials. As a result, inflation is expected to fall next year due to the high base effects from 2022. The beneficiaries would be the industries currently suffering from fragile supply chains and dependent on a stable supply of raw materials. Hopes are therefore pinned on a near end to the war in Ukraine. Which stocks could then benefit very quickly?

Buy or sell? Nel, Zalando, Aspermont under analyst review
After the heavy losses of the past months, a countermovement seems to be starting at the moment. Whether this will turn into a real summer rally remains to be seen. Buy or sell is the question. Analysts see a price potential of over 50% for Nel ASA. Even though competition from China and India is increasing. Aspermont also appears attractive at the current price level. The latest quarterly figures were positive, and the positioning of the small-cap in the booming commodities sector is promising. At Zalando, analysts react to the profit warning, and the price targets are significantly reduced. Nevertheless, some advise buying the online fashion retailer, but not everyone.

TUI, Barsele Minerals, Steinhoff - Which share will manage the turnaround?
Times are currently difficult on the stock market, as there is a lot of uncertainty. On the one hand, there is the question of how long the Ukraine conflict will last, and on the other hand, there is high inflation, which the central banks are trying to combat with rising interest rates. But higher interest rates mean less investment, so the fear of recession is palpable. The still ongoing supply chain problems are also causing headaches for investors. Today, we take a look at three companies that have recently fallen foul of the market and analyze which of the candidates can turn things around.

Deutsche Bank, Barsele Minerals, Commerzbank - Weak share prices offer opportunities!
The times of ultra-loose monetary policy by central banks are history. While the inflation rate in the US exploded to 8.6% in May, the FED is forced to ring in further interest rate steps. After raising the key interest rate by half a percentage point last month, experts expect additional steps between 0.5% and 0.75%. On the other hand, the stalling of the economic engine and the increased risk of a recession speak against further drastic interest rate steps. Due to this fact, gold stocks should benefit in the long term, even if they are dragged down in the current market weakness.
