Daimler Truck, dynaCERT, Plug Power - Hydrogen: The future king of energy sources?
Against the backdrop of climate change and dwindling fossil fuel resources, the world is at a turning point that necessitates a redesign of energy supply. Hydrogen is emerging as the centerpiece of a future low-carbon economy, especially in the transportation sector. This sector, which is currently heavily dependent on fossil fuels, accounts for a significant proportion of global greenhouse gas emissions. In a world seeking sustainable, long-term energy solutions, hydrogen could provide the answer to some of the most pressing challenges of our time. Today, we look at three companies working to reduce emissions using hydrogen.

E-mobility boom 2024, when will the German vehicle market take off? BYD, Edison Lithium, VW, BMW
The last word in e-mobility has not yet been spoken. While BYD is leading the sales list worldwide, Tesla is struggling with important supplier parts and has had to halt production temporarily. German manufacturers have used the last two years to catch up on technical backlogs and are preparing to score points in the "electric world", too. Last year, buyers were offered a state environmental bonus on top, but this was cancelled before Christmas. Now, the market has to prove that it can survive with fewer subsidies. Where are the opportunities for investors?

Hertz, Saturn Oil + Gas, Occidental Petroleum - Clear signs of a trend reversal
Electromobility, often hailed as the future of transportation, is at the forefront of a global transport revolution. A swansong has already been sung for the traditional combustion engine. However, the fossil fuel-powered vehicle is still by far the best-selling vehicle. Issues with battery-powered vehicles are increasing. In addition to the continuing lack of refueling infrastructure, the purchase prices are simply too high without government subsidies. Additionally, higher repair costs are becoming more prevalent.

Infineon, Globex Mining, Volkswagen AG - Excellent general conditions
The year got off to a bumpy start. The DAX, Dow Jones and Co. started the first trading week of the year with losses. The fact that several traders were still on their well-earned Christmas vacations and volumes were low led to high fluctuations in both directions. Chip stocks, in particular, suffered due to a sales warning from the US. In contrast, gold and commodity stocks benefited due to their stable underlying values. This positive trend could continue after the corrections of the past year.

Berlin abolishes the eco-bonus, so what now for e-mobility? Plug Power, Prospera Energy, VW and Porsche in focus
Investors who bet on green energy in 2023 took a big hit. Contrary to many forecasts for the future, the wind and hydrogen sector has yet to show any sustained positive development. Government budgets are simply insufficient to promote these still unprofitable forms of energy. Private investors want to see returns on their investments. State-of-the-art combustion technologies will likely remain available for years because they are efficient and work in all weather conditions. Those who experienced their electric vehicle running out of power on December 1, 2023, at minus 10 degrees with 1 meter of fresh snow can attest to the challenges. We look at titles that carry the essence of fossil energy approaches in their soul.

Almonty Industries, Volkswagen, Rheinmetall: Which share will take off in 2024?
The new year has barely begun, and investors are looking for the winning stocks for the coming year. Investors should keep an eye on the critical raw material tungsten, which Almonty Industries produces. There is significant dependence on China and Russia in this sector. The areas of application are diverse and range from electric cars, which Volkswagen builds, to medical products, metal alloys, industrial applications, electronic devices and the defense industry, where Rheinmetall operates. In times of increasing conflicts and escalating trade disputes between the US and China, essential resources such as tungsten are increasingly coming to the fore. We look at which of the three shares could take off in 2024.
