Is the industrial heart of Europe dying? Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, AJN Resources
Uncertainty in Germany is greater than ever: Increasingly, companies in the automotive industry are cutting jobs. According to industry experts at EY, around 51,100 jobs were lost in the automotive industry within a year, corresponding to around 7% of all jobs. Companies in other sectors are also making cuts. Most recently, Lufthansa also laid off staff. This bad news is accompanied by a worrying mood of doom and gloom among the German population – especially in the traditionally wealthy southwest of the country. In this article, we explain how the industrial giants Porsche and Mercedes-Benz are faring and why more and more investors are turning their attention to gold stocks as a result.

Gold boom boosts critical metals! Another 100% with Power Metallic, BYD, Hensoldt and RENK
The geopolitical situation continues to escalate, but the stock markets continue to boom! Trade conflicts, sanctions, and military tensions dominate the headlines, but behind the front lines of a new Cold War, another competition has long been raging: the battle for access to critical metals. Without copper, lithium, nickel, cobalt, or rare earths, not only would the e-mobility revolution come to a standstill, but defense technologies, digitalization, and the energy transition would also grind to a halt. Supply chains are coming under increasing pressure from geopolitical power games, and the battle for resources is becoming a key strategic factor in a multipolar world order. For Western industrialized nations, security of supply is becoming a matter of survival, and for investors, this is creating new opportunities. Anyone looking for tomorrow's winners today should keep a close eye on the global raw materials poker game.

One-stop shop – Battery metals from a single source: Umicore, BASF, Power Metallic Mines
Anyone who is often in a rush knows the challenge after work: just a quick trip to the store. In such cases, we usually head to our trusted supermarket, where we can find all the products we need in one place. The same principle applies in mining. Complex products, such as modern high-performance batteries for electric vehicles, require a wide range of metals. Polymetallic deposits are therefore in particularly high demand – they are like the familiar neighborhood supermarket for industrial customers. We explain why Power Metallic Mines has the potential to become a one-stop shop for potential major customers such as Umicore and BASF.

E-mobility poised for the next boost! Focus now on Mercedes-Benz, Geely, BASF, and Graphano Energy!
The market for electric vehicles is heavily influenced by current battery technology. Advances in high-performance materials and solid-state batteries are significantly improving range, performance, and safety. Faster charging times and longer battery life are leading to greater consumer acceptance. The development of silicon anodes and new cathode materials is enabling more efficient and cost-effective batteries. Sustainable recycling methods are also important, as they strengthen the circular economy and reduce environmental impact. With the expansion of charging infrastructure, range anxiety is decreasing, and EV usage is becoming more convenient. This highly innovative environment opens up opportunities for both manufacturers and investors alike. Those who understand the key players in the space can achieve substantial returns.

Serbians don't want mines – Are Europe's battery supply chains at risk? BYD, BMW and European Lithium
A recent article in the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung (FAZ) reveals that the vast majority of Serbians oppose lithium mining in the country. The Journal for International Politics and Society cites a survey according to which 55% of Serbians are against a lithium mine in the Jardar Valley – only 25% are in favor of it. The latest media report paints an even bleaker picture. According to the report, the various population groups in Serbia have rarely been as united as they are in their opposition to the mine. But what does this mean for European battery supply chains? Which companies will be penalized, and which will benefit? We analyze the situation.

Margins war and soaring commodity prices! Caution advised on BYD, Mercedes, RENK, and European Lithium
So far, September has turned out to be a month of bliss. It appears that the stock market already underwent its full correction back in April. Investors are still buying high-tech and AI stocks, seemingly unconcerned by valuations of historic proportions. In the wake of this super bull market, automakers BYD and Mercedes have recently suffered significant price corrections. At the same time, the wave of euphoria surrounding defense stock RENK now appears somewhat exaggerated. The rally around critical metals has also driven European Lithium and its US subsidiary Critical Metals significantly higher. With commodity prices recently exploding, however, the rally here is likely only just beginning. We take a closer look at the numbers.
