Geotechnical investigations are progressing rapidly in order to develop the valuable raw material. Volkswagen reports an impressive 17.9% increase in car sales in July. Nevertheless, the Company is lowering its annual sales forecast due to growing competition in China. Germany's energy transition is affecting major corporations like BASF. The US company Cheniere Energy will supply BASF with liquefied gas in the future. To adapt to the new market conditions, BASF has successfully completed the spin-off of its mobile exhaust catalyst and precious metal services businesses. The new site surprises.

Artificial intelligence (AI) is a key driver for the digital transformation of our society. Some technologies have been around for over 50 years but advances in computing power and the availability of big data and new algorithms have led to breakthroughs in AI in recent years. Even if AI is only slowly becoming present in our everyday lives, new applications are likely to bring enormous changes in the future. Decision-making processes, for example, can be strongly supported digitally since today's computers can sift through hundreds of years of knowledge within a few seconds. But does this necessarily mean that the quality of results will also increase?

Thanks to modern technology, real-time data can be analyzed, and responses can be made accordingly. High-tech also requires the necessary chip and cloud technologies. Investors were thus able to follow AMD's first results this year with excitement. Are they really ahead of their competitor NVIDIA?
