Super Rally 2025: Artificial intelligence, crypto and the hunger for energy! TOP performance with MicroStrategy, XXIX Metal, BYD and Mercedes
The sudden cancellation of the government environmental bonus for e-vehicles at the end of 2023 has led to a significant drop in the number of electric vehicles being registered. However, interest in electric vehicles remains, albeit constrained, partly due to the high prices of many electric models. New government measures are expected to boost electric mobility again starting in 2025, with potential incentives of up to EUR 3,600 – though the implementation will likely only happen after the elections. What is being treated as an election promise for Germany has become the norm for the rest of the world. The increasing demand for energy driven by the electrification of various sectors, from high-tech and artificial intelligence to the crypto arena, which is even now being considered as a "reserve currency," highlights how quickly the world is changing in this disruptive environment. However, what all economic and political trends have in common is the need for access to strategic metals, especially copper! Where are the opportunities for investors?

Renk electric tanks with Rheinmetall? Buy Nordex shares? XXIX Metal profits!
Is electric mobility coming to the battlefield soon? This is likely to be only a matter of time. For example, Renk is already working on hybrid models that are expected to offer clear advantages in the field and could also be used to electrify Rheinmetall tanks in the future. In addition, the new transmissions pave the way for autonomous driving tanks. Electric vehicles are driving the demand for copper just as much as artificial intelligence and renewable energies. XXIX Metal is benefiting from this. The Company emerged from a merger this year and has become a leading player. The copper content of the projects, which already exists, is convincing. And what is Nordex doing? The wind turbine manufacturer has reported a new order. The stock has remained relatively stable throughout 2024. Analysts see upside potential, but there are also risks.

Mercedes-Benz, XXIX Metal, D-Wave Quantum - Copper shortage: Is a bottleneck looming due to new technologies?
Copper is an elementary industrial raw material whose importance is steadily increasing due to technological innovations and global megatrends. In particular, the rapid expansion of electromobility, the development of quantum computers, and artificial intelligence are driving demand to new heights. Electric vehicles require many times more copper than conventional vehicles with combustion engines due to batteries, engines and charging infrastructure. At the same time, demand is increasing in data centres and networks that rely on high-performance cables and cooling systems. Experts predict that global copper demand will increase by millions of tonnes by 2030 – and with it, new challenges for production and supply.

Copper shortage, Crypto, and a hunger for energy! What is in store for Super Micro Computer, MicroStrategy, SAP and XXIX Metal Corp. in 2025?
Sharp increases in energy commodities are hindering electrification projects. Copper is indispensable for these initiatives and will become one of the key resources driving innovation in the coming years. Without the red metal, electric motors cannot be built and huge amounts of electricity cannot be transported over land. Copper is also a critical component in designing a completely new energy infrastructure. Trends such as Web 3.0, high-performance computing, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence are further exacerbating the energy shortage. Significant demand increases are expected in China and India, whose resource hunger impacts the entire planet. The race against time is already in its third round; new copper deposits must be developed urgently! Which stocks are at the forefront?

Alamos Gold, Prismo Metals, Hudbay Minerals - Gold breaks out, copper turns, act now!
After a brief pause, gold returned with a brilliant breakout and crossed the USD 2,500 per ounce mark for the first time. This new all-time high has generated a striking buy signal. The conditions, with further escalation in geopolitics, provide the best opportunities for continued price increases. Copper also sent out positive signals. Despite economic concerns, the industrial metal may have found a bottom after the correction of recent weeks.

thyssenkrupp, Globex Mining, Barrick Gold - Which share holds the most potential?
In the midst of a turbulent phase on the global markets, companies in the commodities sector are facing enormous challenges. Recent developments have increased volatility, as evidenced by the unexpectedly strong growth in China's commodity imports in July. Despite these positive signals, the market reaction has been subdued, partly due to negative indicators like the falling copper price. Copper serves as an early indicator of global economic strength. Investors eagerly await a potential rebound while market observers discuss the causes and future opportunities. Today, we will look at a steel, mining, and gold company to determine which one holds the most potential.

Bulls at the controls: Nel, Barrick Gold, Viva Gold! What about BASF?
Low inflation in the US has given new impetus to the bulls. Not only are growth stocks benefiting from the hope that the interest rate cycle is coming to an end, but also gold. Thus, the gold price reacted on Wednesday by jumping to over USD 1,960 per troy ounce. Top-tier gold stocks such as Barrick also responded positively. Exploration companies have significant catch-up potential, including Viva Gold. The Company is favorably valued and has again reported positive drill results. The fact that the interest rate cycle is nearing its end is also evident in the chemical industry. Most recently, BASF issued a warning, and there are sell recommendations. On the other hand, there are buy recommendations for the Nel share.

Climate Crisis: Copper is the new oil! BYD, Orestone Mining, Ford, Nio - 100% acceleration in Greentech
At the beginning of May, analysts at Bank of America declared a new "super cycle" for basic and raw materials. What they mean by this is that a whole series of important materials will be in great short supply for years. The prime example is the red metal copper. The price of the industrial metal has almost doubled in the past 12 months. It is currently quoted at around USD 8,350 per tonne, not far from the historic high of USD 10,750. During the pandemic, the metal briefly fell to USD 4,500. Currently, however, forecasts are once again pointing upwards. Bank of America expects the price to more than double again to around USD 18,000 in the next three years. We take a look at some hot stocks.

ThyssenKrupp, Orestone Mining, Nevada Copper - Optimistic about the future
Overall, copper is an indispensable part of the green transformation due to its excellent electrical conductivity, corrosion resistance and reliability. It enables the efficient use of renewable energies, promotes electromobility and supports sustainable infrastructure development. Due to recession fears, the base price corrected strongly in recent months. In the long term, copper should make a renewed attempt to reach new highs due to high demand and too little supply.

Barrick Gold, Desert Gold, Deutsche Bank - What happens after the US debt ceiling is lifted?
In the US, the Democrats and Republicans have agreed on a compromise in the debt dispute. This means that the US can take out more loans, which will ultimately result in an increasing money supply. This could further fuel inflation, while on the other hand, it could boost the gold price. In recent months, the gold price has soared due to the turbulence in the banking sector and was able to mark a new high. Nevertheless, this is remarkable because the FED had raised interest rates significantly, which would typically have tended to argue for a falling gold price. If interest rates do not rise further or even fall, this would be another positive signal for gold. We, therefore, look at 2 gold companies and analyze Deutsche Bank.
