Opportunities in times of Crisis: Defense Metals, Rheinmetall and Thyssenkrupp shares as promising investments in Energy and Defense
Geopolitical unrest is shaking the global economy - those who bet on companies such as Defense Metals, Rheinmetall or Thyssenkrupp in good time have the chance to make substantial profits! Defense Metals, as a supplier of rare earth metals, under the leadership of President Dr. Luisa Morena and CEO Craig Taylor, is not only advancing the promising Wicheeda rare earth project but is also revolutionizing the entire supply chain for rare earth metals in North America with Ucore Rare Metals Inc.

Altech Advanced Materials, BYD, JinkoSolar - The Era of Energy Autonomy
In an era where energy not only needs to be generated but also intelligently managed, batteries and energy storage systems are increasingly taking centre stage. They are the inconspicuous heroes of the energy transition that will significantly shape our understanding of sustainability. While renewable energy from sun, wind and water is increasingly feeding into our power grid, reliable storage solutions are the key to using energy where and when it is actually needed. We look at Altech Advanced Materials, a company offering two exciting solutions for the future, and examine BYD, the top dog of electromobility alongside Tesla. Lastly, we explain why JinkoSolar can benefit from future energy storage systems.

ExxonMobil, Prospera Energy, Shell - Falling profits and new opportunities in black gold
The fall in energy prices led to a significant drop in inflation. Consequently, the colossal profits of oil giants, such as Chevron, Exxon, and PB, also melted away. As a result, the stock prices of these companies corrected, potentially providing long-term investors with a new buying opportunity. Many experts agree that in the long term, the decline in black gold is likely just a temporary dip in its overall upward trend, which should lead to significantly higher price targets in the coming years.

Focus on individual stocks: Why Saturn Oil + Gas, Siemens Energy, and JinkoSolar are scoring points in the energy poker game
Global demand for oil and gas is rising steadily, especially in high-growth economies. Saturn Oil & Gas is a Canadian company that is positioning itself as a promising investment in the energy sector. The Company is currently successfully producing light oil in Saskatchewan and has also completed horizontal drilling in Alberta. It also pursues a conservative accounting policy. Siemens Energy is in the focus of investors after a more than 50% drop in shares between June and November 2023. The damaged wind turbines from the Siemens Gamesa deal require a clear strategy from CEO Christian Bruch. Analysts are divided. While Morgan Stanley is optimistic about the development, Barclays lowers the price target. In an uncertain market environment for renewable energies, a differentiated view of individual values is crucial for investors. China is positioning itself not only as one of the leading industrialized oil and gas countries but also as a pioneer in the renewable energy sector. JinkoSolar, a Chinese company, is benefiting from its financial stability and the rising global demand for solar energy. Find out here which stock scores best.

Manuka Resources, Plug Power, Amazon: Precious Metals, Energy, E-Commerce - Which global future trends investors are betting on now
Renewable energy and digital transformation bring companies like Manuka Resources, Plug Power, and Amazon Web Services into focus. While Manuka Resources serves the rising demand for precious metals in the energy transition through mining activities for gold and silver, Plug Power, a pioneer in hydrogen technologies, faces challenges and seeks ways to overcome them. This time, the US government appears to be more of an opponent than an ally for Plug. In North America, Amazon Web Services, as a leader in cloud technology, is advancing Canadian infrastructure with an investment of over USD 17.9 billion. Meanwhile, the AI startup Anthropic, supported by giants like Google and Amazon, is betting on the future of artificial intelligence with ambitious revenue goals by 2024, from which AWS could also benefit. For more detailed insights into these connections, read here.

From record production to billion-dollar deals: Prospera Energy, Occidental Petroleum and Tesla in the spotlight
The world is undergoing an energy transition, and pioneering projects in Saudi Arabia demonstrate the significant role of renewable energy. Energy companies like Prospera Energy are experiencing record production with over 1,500 BOE/D. Value appreciation and a focus on reserves make Prospera Energy an attractive investment candidate, especially given the rising global demand for oil and gas. Warren Buffett is backing precisely these types of companies, such as Occidental Petroleum (OXY). The planned acquisition of CrownRock for USD 12 billion promises a significant increase in sales for the oil and gas company. Berkshire Hathaway is, therefore, increasing its stake in OXY by 5.2 million shares. While Tesla faces challenges with its electric vehicle (EV) doors, BYD is outperforming in the global BEV market. The Chinese car manufacturer has already overtaken Tesla in terms of market share, recording a 68% increase compared to the previous year. The future of electric mobility could lie in Chinese quality and reliability and, above all, in oil and gas companies. Where is the next profit leap?

Boom market for renewable energies - thyssenkrupp nucera, Globex Mining, Energiekontor
One week before Christmas, presents are still being handed out on the stock market. Several companies from the renewable energies sector, which has suffered in this stock market year, reported strong quarterly figures and positive outlooks. Due to the significantly lower prices, hydrogen, wind, and solar power offer attractive entry opportunities for the coming year. One thing is sure: in Germany in particular, politicians will do everything they can to ensure that alternative energy sources become a long-term success.

Star investor Buffett bets on oil: BYD, Plug Power, Shell, Prospera Energy
While the world was watching the Dubai Climate Conference, Warren Buffett invested in oil. The star investor increased his stake in Occidental Petroleum to 27% via Berkshire Hathaway. There is also the possibility of increasing the stake in the US oil company to 33%. The move came after Occidental shares had lost 20% in just a few weeks. This anti-cyclical move is typical of Buffett and shows that oil stocks like Shell are exciting. A similar turnaround story to Occidental is Prospera Energy. Things are expected to get interesting for the Canadian oil producer next year. This is likely also the case for BYD and Plug Power. Chinese companies want to attack the Japanese market, among other things. Like so many hydrogen companies, Plug Power has to address the question of the profitability of its business model.

Snow chaos and climate madness, who is playing in the Premier League of the energy transition? Nel ASA, Power Nickel and Plug Power under the microscope
Snow chaos and new record highs. While the DAX 40 demonstrates itself as the world's best blue-chip index, the German economy is currently navigating downward. It is not the earnings outlook that is presently driving share prices but the hope of lower interest rates. Meanwhile, the endless climate debates in Dubai continue. Among realists, however, there must be fears that the local oil lobby will not let a German know-it-all put a stop to the lavish margins with fossil fuels. There will, at least, be a friendly Arab nod to the 2050 climate goals and exclusive indulgence for the high-ranking German delegation. Whether this justifies federal expenditure of more than EUR 50 million is something we will leave uncommented. More important is a look at the top titles of the upcoming energy transition - where is the next 100 percenter lurking?

More than 30% with Plug Power, Siemens Energy, and Globex Mining! What is next?
Is the Plug Power share about to triple? Despite being one of the disappointments of 2023 along with Siemens Energy, both shares have risen in recent days. And analysts see further upside potential. The price target for the hydrogen specialist, in particular, is surprising. On the other hand, Globex Mining is performing well operationally throughout 2023. The shares of the mining incubator from North America have gained over 30% in value this year, outperforming commodity giants such as Barrick Gold. The Canadians' recent transaction shows that the business model has potential and is appealing to investors.
