Nel, Standard Lithium, Power Nickel: Shares for the electric boom
BYD and Tesla are celebrating new delivery records in 2022 - and the trend continues to rise. German automakers are also trying to keep pace with electromobility with new models. But success has long since ceased to depend solely on technology and brand; the supply of raw materials is increasingly becoming a critical factor. Lithium and nickel, in particular, are in short supply, and prices are going through the roof. The shares of Standard Lithium and Power Nickel, among others, are benefiting from this. While Standard Lithium has been able to win groups as partners, the spin-off of Power Nickel's gold activities is providing additional share price potential. Hydrogen also has great potential, regardless of whether it will play a role in cars in the future or not. With the latest cooperation with the energy supplier Iberdrola, Nel is taking a further step to secure a piece of the pie.

Lithium explosion: BYD, Standard Lithium, Edison Lithium - Explosives for e-mobility!
Whether e-mobility, aircraft technology or renewable energies, virtually all high-tech segments seek suitable energy storage. The development driver is climate protection, which will put mobility and energy generation and distribution on a new footing in the future. In order to bring e-mobility to a level of efficiency similar to the most modern diesel technology, on the one hand, significantly more environmentally friendly battery production processes are required, as well as a massive increase in performance. The electric boom is thus creating an incredible pull for battery metals, above all, lithium. With a 500% increase in 24 months, the price of the white metal recently reached a new high. But producers are scarce!

The next e-car revolution: Volkswagen, Altech Advanced Materials, BYD
Higher, faster, further - and cheaper too? Manufacturers and suppliers of electric cars are breaking new ground these days with new battery compositions and innovative technology. At the same time, the aim is to make electromobility as sustainable as possible. That means traceable and transparent supply chains and the avoidance of metals from dubious sources. We get to the bottom of three interesting representatives from the electromobility field and tap into investors' opportunities.

Varta, BYD, Nevada Copper: Shares under power
With the "Easter Package", Economics and Climate Protection Minister Robert Habeck wants to accelerate the expansion of renewable energies once again. The central goal is to double the share of electricity from renewable sources to 80% by 2030. In order to achieve this, approval procedures for new projects are to be shortened, among other things. In addition, new areas are to be made available for wind and photovoltaics, and remuneration is to be increased. Electromobility should also benefit because the environment is only really protected if the electricity comes from renewable sources. Companies across the entire value chain should benefit. The Chinese car manufacturer BYD is currently shining with several positive reports. Raw materials producer Nevada Copper also impressed with its quarterly update and is on the verge of a revaluation. At battery pioneer Varta, analysts are having their say after the figures.

Varta, Standard Lithium, Edison Lithium: Shares profit from e-mobility
Tesla has reported a new delivery record. This confirms the high demand for e-cars, and demand is necessary because the energy turnaround will hardly work without a consistent shift to e-mobility. In Germany, this development is compounded by the reduction in oil supplies from Russia. The demand for batteries and their components - above all lithium - is correspondingly high. The price per ton of lithium carbonate knows only one way: up. Today, more than EUR 70,000 per ton is being paid for the "white gold". Investors can profit from this: One of the favorites in this area is Standard Lithium. After a breather, the share is stepping on the gas again. The still largely undiscovered Edison Lithium share also has potential. Battery specialist Varta is having a more challenging time. The figures were okay. The outlook did not convince analysts, but there is hope.

NIO, Power Nickel, BYD - Extreme demand despite rising prices
Due to climate change, something historical is taking place in the transport sector: the transformation of fossil-fueled cars to so-called electric vehicles powered by batteries. The growth figures of electric car manufacturers such as Tesla, BYD and NIO are impressive. The trend is only just beginning and is expected to pick up speed significantly in the next 2-3 years. Due to the high demand for battery-powered cars, the raw materials required, such as lithium, cobalt and nickel, are increasing in parallel. Due to the lack of supply, the winners are precisely those producers and exploration companies that are currently, or in the near future, able to supply the scarce commodities.

TUI, Barsele Minerals, BYD: Some stock speculations can be expensive
The question of war and peace leaves many gray areas open. Humanitarian corridors, cease-fires, reduction of military intensity - what these terms truly mean must remain an open question after the events of the past days and weeks. The only thing that is certain is that the world needs time to find a new order after the pandemic, climate change and the war in Europe. Until then, chaos remains. What can investors still rely on in the midst of this chaos? We explain using three stocks as examples.

Varta, Phoenix Copper, JinkoSolar, Nordex: Numbers upon numbers, where is the explosive?
The copper price reached its preliminary high on March 7, 2022, at around USD 10,730. Since then, we have seen a standard consolidation of 3-4%, which is not an unusual occurrence in the present uptrend. Thus, the coveted metal has exploded by over 100% since the beginning of 2020. Large mining groups and copper mines have often been able to post a multiple of this performance for themselves in the same period. For many market participants, the medium-term upward scenario for the industrial metal remains set. Since the political closing of ranks on e-mobility, demand for copper and battery metals has shot through the roof. Mine operators and governments worldwide are alarmed because the current recoverable capacities cover just 85% of the current year's demand. Who can close the gap?

Nordex, Altech Advanced Materials, Varta - Winners of the energy turnaround!
Renewable energy generation and energy storage are taking on an increasingly important role. The challenges for the infrastructure with decentralized energy sources are also increasing. Given the explosively rising lithium prices, which are essential for the production of batteries, innovations are gaining importance. Some solutions have the potential to powerfully shake up the industry. Long-term investors can profit from the megatrends in various ways.

Attention: BYD, Edgemont Gold, Delivery Hero, MorphoSys - Shares with the highest dynamics!
The intensity of fluctuation on the capital markets remains high. It is measured by volatility indices such as the EU Vola Index or the VIX on the S&P 500. Both indices had risen well above 30 at the beginning of the crisis, with the EU Vola Index even reaching a peak of 43.3% on March 7. At the beginning of the Corona Lockdown in February 2020, this index rose overnight to values of over 70%. Although these volatility coefficients are slowly trending downwards due to political easing tendencies, hedgers on the derivatives markets are pricing volatility into their products at a higher price. So those who are currently trading options may experience their blue miracle with Vola changes overnight. Some stocks have recently jumped in this environment; where are the opportunities?
