Glencore, Barrick, Sibanye, Carnavale Resources - Inflation drives commodities!
The metal prices are going through the roof! After the first shock last week, when the People's Republic of China announced that it wanted to actively "fix" the prices for raw materials in the future, the next hammer followed at the end of the week: The consumer price index (CPI) in the USA set inflation at 5% - the highest level since mid-2008. Nevertheless, the central banks still see no reason to reduce the expansive monetary policy; risking an economic collapse in this fragile situation is too high. Given these settings, there are now two options for commodity investors to protect themselves against rising inflation: Invest directly in commodities or buy stocks in the commodities sector.

Nordex, Deutsche Rohstoff AG, Nikola - Enormous scope for further growth
The replacement of fossil fuels by renewable energies is a done deal. The targets for a climate-neutral world are being raised by politicians almost every week. Nevertheless, according to experts, the world will not get by without oil and gas as the primary source of energy in the future. Oil prices continue to climb, trading at around 30% above pre-Corona levels. At the same time, the economic recovery is only just getting underway. Due to global demand, this trend is likely to continue for some time, with significant upside potential for producers.

JinkoSolar, BYD, SunMirror: Rich thanks to climate protection
Sustainability has long been more than just a buzzword. The former core issue of the Greens has now reached all parties. Today, it seems clear that resources should be used intelligently. It is also essential to use regenerative energy. But to manufacture solar panels and store the green electricity generated in this way, raw materials are necessary. Those who have secured these can hope for good business.

First Majestic Silver, NewPeak Metals, K+S - Soaring commodity prices
Commodity prices continue to soar. If we compare the first quarter of 2021 with 2020, we can assume an average price increase of 36.7%. As the raw materials market is currently unable to respond quickly enough to the high demand in many countries, prices are rising. An end to this spiral is currently not foreseeable, as more and more countries are slowly getting to grips with the Corona pandemic. Thus the demand for raw materials will continue to grow. We have picked out three exciting companies from the commodities sector today.

White Metal Resources, BASF, K+S: How to react to 4% inflation
As reported by Handelsblatt, the German Bundesbank expects an inflation rate of up to 4% by year-end. Within the eurozone, for which the central bank ECB is responsible, it could be well over 2%. This mixed situation is particularly tricky for Germans. While inflation in Germany is already very high, the lower price momentum within the eurozone could ensure that the ECB leaves its money floodgates open for even longer. In the long term, this could encourage inflation to overshoot. How can investors react to this? We present three stocks.

ThyssenKrupp, SunMirror, Siemens Energy - Putting the energy transition in jeopardy
The pandemic issue is slowly fading into the background on the news pages. The energy transition is currently on everyone's lips again. Of course, the election campaign is beginning. The German Green Party positions itself and is calling for a complete switch to alternative energies. On its homepage, you can read the sentence: "We have a plan for the energy world of the future!" However, whether this plan has been thought through to the last point can be more than doubted. Phasing out climate-damaging coal and switching to completely alternative energies requires raw materials whose import is in no way guaranteed for the next few years due to scarcity.
