NIO, Kodiak Copper, Siemens Energy - Will green policies end in disaster?
Climate change is supposed to move forward quickly. The parties, above all, the Greens around chancellor candidate Annalena Baerbock, are wooing voters with ever shorter targets for CO2 neutrality. However, the construction of wind turbines, electric cars and solar plants requires an enormous amount of metals. There are already signs of a shortage in 2021, which will be even more drastic in the next few years and will seriously undermine the politicians' plans.

Gazprom, Kodiak Copper, Nordex: This is how the energy transition pays off
Keeping the economy moving requires energy. This energy can come from a variety of sources. Fossil fuels, such as oil and gas, have come under fire for their CO2 emissions. However, what is clear is that these energy sources will remain important for a long time to come. As a climate-neutral alternative, electricity from renewable sources is gaining in importance. However, this requires investments in storage facilities and transmission lines. We present three stocks related to the energy sector.

Teck Resources, GSP Resource, Standard Lithium: Thinking of the good times
The summer has caused a lethargic mood on the stock market. There are inflation concerns, and also, the pandemic is again leading to many hospitalizations in many countries. Nevertheless, the markets seem to have weathered the worst. The closer we get to fall, the more likely future issues will dominate the market again. Whenever issues of mobility or regenerative energy come up, commodities also come into play. We take a look at three shares related to popular commodities.

Orocobre, Kodiak Copper, Infineon Technologies - Good for the climate, even better for your portfolio
Heat records and droughts on the one hand and heavy rainfall and flooding on the other - climate change is no longer an abstract threat but a reality. Speculating about the causes is idle. It is more important to tackle the problem. Phasing out coal-fired power generation by 2038? Much too late, experts criticize. And politicians are also slowly realizing that it is already five to twelve. That is why they are really stepping on the gas! We need to say goodbye to the combustion engine, decarbonize industrial production, and expand renewable energy sources. But this requires certain raw materials. Here are three companies with a bright future ahead of them.

Lang & Schwarz, NEL, GSP Resource - Short-term or long-term rebound?
No annual general meeting, no dividend, in-house tax discovery and loss of confidence - the news from Lang & Schwarz on Tuesday could hardly have been more severe. Accordingly, the share price fell by more than 35% in after-hours trading. On Wednesday, the share price rebounded with a double-digit gain. But the possible involvement of the stockbroker in the Cum-Ex deal will certainly keep investors busy for longer. The NEL share also made significant gains on Wednesday. It benefited from an order and the generally friendly mood in the hydrogen sector. Copper specialist GSP Resource has been on the rise again for some time because the raw material could soon become scarce. When asking how sustainable the rebound is in each case, one should look at the details.

Geely, GSP Resource, Nel ASA - Taking advantage of the correction
After a ten-year high of over USD 10,500 per ton, copper is correcting and is currently scratching the USD 9,000 mark. In the short term, there is a favorable entry opportunity to participate in the next supercycle. Copper is the base metal of the energy transition. The high demand due to the switch to renewable energy sources is already being offset by an extremely tight supply. The result is rising prices in the long term.

BYD, Fisker, Kodiak Copper, E.ON: Copper remains the linchpin!
According to the Paris Protocol, the implementation of the climate targets is based on the conversion to electric drives, the use of renewable energies, and sustainable raw material management. In addition to the development of new raw material deposits, especially in the field of battery metals, the topic of recycling is coming up. Here, too, it is crucial which resources are used to recover the metals. Currently, some copper projects are under development, but it will take 2-3 years before they can deliver. Part of the whole castling will also be the power companies because they have to provide the planned power purchase for the coming years, and this could be tight, especially for Germany.

Steinhoff, Kodiak Copper, NIO - At the beginning of the trend
Rising inflation is making living more expensive. The culprit for the increase - in Germany, consumer prices rose by 3.8% in July compared to the same month last year - is increasingly expensive raw materials. In addition to agricultural commodities such as corn and wheat, metals in particular, which are urgently needed for the energy transition, are going through the roof. There is no end in sight to the price increase here; economists are already talking about a supercycle lasting years.

BYD, GSP Resource, Standard Lithium - Lithium hype, but do not forget copper
In recent weeks, real hype has broken out around lithium. It is said that lithium producers cannot adapt to demand so quickly. Due to the radical change of course in the automotive industry away from the combustion engine to the e-car, the demand for lithium will increase considerably. The price of lithium has already doubled from USD 5,000 to USD 10,000. It is expected that demand will increase by 300%. It should not be forgotten that copper is also essential for the switch to e-mobility. But it is not just in that sector that the demand for copper is increasing; worldwide, more and more people are gaining access to electricity. Today, we look at BYD, a manufacturer of e-vehicles, and two potential suppliers of copper and lithium.

TUI, GSP Resource, NEL - The volcano starts to smoke!
Chart analysis is a popular tool among traders and investors to optimize trading in securities or derivatives. The goal is to forecast future price developments based on charting techniques. However, there is a need to remember that under the assumption of efficient market theory, a chart already contains all the available information. Unfortunately, there are as big misunderstandings in chart interpretation as in fundamental analysis. In charts, formations may or may not indicate a breakout, whereas fundamental information has historical and future significance. In all assumptions, we naturally assume that the stock market is always right, meaning that the current price reflects the Company's value at any point in time. But that does not make the decision any easier!
