Manuka Resources, Volkswagen, Mercedes Benz - Strong demand for resources for electromobility
A major restructuring is taking place at Volkswagen. The new chief designer will be Michael Mauer, who was previously responsible for the design of Porsche. The Wolfsburg company has big plans and wants to become the No. 1 EV manufacturer in Australia. It is precisely in this country that Manuka Resources mines the essential metals for the energy transition. From gold and silver to vanadium, the Company offers value chains from which investors focusing on renewable energies can benefit. Mercedes Benz, the big flagship from Stuttgart, also relies on renewable energies and is massively expanding its battery production sites.

Climate protection & energy crisis: BYD, Mercedes, Globex Mining, Volkswagen - Invest in metals!
Those who want to switch from fossil energy to electrical forms of use forget the sometimes poor efficiency in converting fossil primary energy forms to electricity from the socket. Truly green solutions are defined per se by "GreenTech" applications that improve the overall energy balance or even reduce it to zero. A prerequisite for all efforts is access to inexpensive raw materials, especially high-tech metals. These are copper, iron, nickel, silver, and, as the scope of applications expands, silver, platinum and gold. By the fall of 2022, green power yields were between 43 and 66% of the grid capacity. Fossil fuels had a share of only 15 to 20%. Winter has now set in, and trouble looms as the fossil component is more than uncertain for Europe, and solar power yields are falling. Where is the solution?

100% is possible: BYD, Varta, Power Nickel, BASF: E-mobility stocks for 2023!
With advanced stock market corrections, rising inflation and disrupted supply chains, many market participants wonder if 100% is possible in 2023. It is! Because there are currently many challenges to solving the climate and energy crisis. More than ever, revolutionary ideas with vision are in demand. The pressure to innovate could not be higher in the area of batteries for e-mobility because the issues of range, service life and recycling have not yet been satisfactorily resolved for consumers. Some representatives of the industry have already recognized the signs of the times.

Gas is becoming scarce and raw materials increasingly expensive: Uniper, BYD, Defense Metals, and Nordex in focus
Five years ago, Tesla CEO Elon Musk announced the transportation revolution. Last week, it finally happened: Pepsi was the first company to receive the keys to the new Tesla e-truck called the "Tesla Semi." It is said to have a full 500 miles, or 800 km, range and can be charged in less than an hour with the appropriate high-voltage current. Because fossil fuel energy supplies are becoming more and more expensive, electric innovations are now entering all areas of business. But electricity from the socket also needs its sources. For this, in turn, all countries worldwide are making efforts to get GreenTech off the ground, i.e. the climate-neutral generation of electricity. Only then can e-mobility be said to benefit the environment. What is urgently needed for this are inexpensive energy and metal raw materials.

Bayer, BYD, TubeSolar: Stocks for the year-end rally and beyond?
Investors are currently positioning themselves for the year-end rally. To that end, today, we look at three exciting and very different stocks. BYD has become Tesla's biggest competitor. But the "honeymoon" for electric vehicles in China is coming to an end, analysts say. What is the story? Bayer has increasingly emerged from the shadow of the glyphosate issue this year. Analysts continue to see upside potential for the DAX company. Just like the new German solar hopeful TubeSolar. If the energy turnaround is to succeed, companies like this are needed. After all, the Augsburg-based company is convincing with its innovative technology and could achieve rapid sales growth in the coming years - does this also apply to the share price?

Nordex, Kodiak Copper, Geely - Exploding demand, rising prices
In the coming decades, the electrification of transport is expected to continue to grow strongly, with battery-powered electric cars replacing internal combustion engines. In addition, the shift from fossil fuels to renewable energy sources such as wind and solar power will be greatly accelerated, both to reduce dependencies and to meet established climate targets. This transformation is expected to explode the demand for critical raw materials for climate change. Copper, in particular, plays a vital role in this.

BYD, First Hydrogen, Daimler Truck - Green solutions as a booster for the portfolio
With the climate crisis worsening, the need for viable solutions and systems to reduce emissions is greater than ever. One area that has a major impact on emissions is freight transport. As the demand for freight transportation increases, so does the emissions released into the atmosphere. This not only has a serious impact on the environment but also affects the sustainability of the freight transport industry. So the question is, what kind of drive system will prevail in freight transport? Will it be electric propulsion or hydrogen propulsion with its fuel cells? We take a look at three companies that are focusing on different drive systems.

Debacle for e-mobility? BYD, Varta, Almonty Industries, Nordex - Farewell from the Qatar desert!
The German national soccer team has experienced its next World Cup debacle and attracted even fewer interested people to their TV sets than during the first World Cup elimination 4 years ago. Even during the third-round preliminary match, TV figures remained comparatively low. The DFB women thus retain the viewer record in 2023, which is nice. E-mobility could also suffer a significant setback in 2023 because if electricity prices continue to rise and availability falls, charging stations could have to be taken off the grid. According to the ADAC, Switzerland is planning a speed limit of 100 and driving bans on non-essential private trips with e-mobiles to prevent the risk of blackouts. The decision will be made in the National Council on December 12. But the stock market is still betting on Tesla & Co - who are the profiteers?

First Hydrogen, Tesla, Volkswagen - Hydrogen or battery drive, who makes the race?
The German Federal Ministry of Research and Education has big plans: the natural gas network is to be converted as a supply structure for hydrogen so that Germany is well equipped for the future. The Canadian company First Hydrogen is betting on hydrogen propulsion, launching its first production facility in Quebec. A call for leadership is being heard regarding Elon Musk and his car company Tesla. It seems that a blue bird and the desire for freedom of expression are taking up so much of his time that the share price is wobbling. The competition is not sleeping: Volkswagen is currently number one in Europe with its EV models. Who will make the race?

Profit now from the energy transition - Rock Tech Lithium, Power Nickel, Shell
In the past, the internal combustion engine was at the center of the automotive industry, but this is now to change as quickly as possible in order to achieve the specified climate targets. Electrification is the magic word. However, there are high hurdles to overcome in implementing this. For example, it is still not certain whether the battery metals required for this, such as lithium, cobalt, copper and nickel, are available in sufficient quantities. Demand for the critical metals already exceeds supply. The beneficiaries are undoubtedly the producers of the scarce goods.
