Energy Investing 2.0: Siemens Energy, RE Royalties, and RWE - Formulas for stable profits in times of change
The global energy transition will reach a historic tipping point in 2025. For the first time, renewables surpassed coal in the electricity mix, driven by record investments in solar and wind power. This revolution, fueled by investments of over USD 386 billion, is creating an entirely new ecosystem for profitable business models and strategic positioning. The focus is on three companies that are not only mastering this change but also actively shaping it and offering investors unique opportunities in a rapidly evolving market: Siemens Energy, RE Royalties, and RWE.

Antimony remains scarce and in demand: EnerSys, Aurubis, Antimony Resources
Antimony is a semi-metal with a silvery sheen, primarily used in lead-acid batteries, flame retardants, electronics, and military technology. In recent months, China has severely restricted its antimony exports. According to estimates, China produced around 60% of the world's antimony in 2024, followed by Tajikistan. China's dominance is heightening supply fears: as Reuters reported in June this year, US battery manufacturers are already referring to a "national emergency." This is reason enough to take a closer look at the supply chain in the West and examine the role of Antimony Resources, which recently attracted attention in the stock market.

Yesterday +16%! D-Wave explodes again! Siemens Energy and First Hydrogen shares benefit from AI's energy hunger
What a bounce for D-Wave. After a sharp correction yesterday, the quantum stock rose 16%. Is the Trump administration getting involved in quantum companies? That is the rumor making the rounds. Meanwhile, the energy hunger of AI data centers is also keeping the stock market on tenterhooks. One beneficiary from Germany is Siemens Energy. The stock is running like clockwork. Small modular reactors (SMRs) are a huge topic in North America. The Canadian government is providing massive support to industry, which should benefit First Hydrogen. The Company plans to combine its hydrogen expertise with SMR technology. So - buy now?

Gold USD 4,300 and Silver USD 53 – Buying frenzy at Silver North, First Majestic, Nel ASA, and JinkoSolar
Silver has been shorted by many investment banks for several years because sufficient supply was available from Mexico and other producing countries. The tide has turned. Over the past 12 months, the precious metal has caught up with its big brother gold, gaining 54%. There are several reasons for the scarcity-driven rally: there are only around 250 active silver mines worldwide, compared to around 1,400 gold mines. In addition, silver has massively expanded its importance as an industrial metal: it is indispensable in high-tech, e-mobility, defense, and medical technology. As a result, less and less physical silver is available to investors, while inventories on the futures markets continue to decline. Now is the time to take a position in silver. Alongside industry giants such as First Majestic, Silver North is among the most promising beneficiaries of the new silver boom.

Who benefits, who suffers? The raw materials crisis in e-mobility: BYD, Graphano Energy, and Volkswagen
The future of mobility is being decided in the battery factory. Innovative battery cells promise longer ranges and lower costs, but the road to getting there is marked by a fierce race for scarce raw materials and technological supremacy. This tension between disruptive progress and geopolitical risks creates unique opportunities for companies that navigate the transformation strategically. Today, we take a closer look at how BYD, Graphano Energy, and Volkswagen are currently positioning themselves.

Barrick Mining and Kobo Resources: Gold as security – Occidental Petroleum: Energy as opportunity
In an era of geopolitical upheaval and monetary policy experimentation, tangible assets are gaining strategic importance. Gold remains a fundamental store of value, while the transformation of the energy sector is driving demand for critical raw materials. Even oil, despite volatile prices, retains its status as a geopolitical lever. In this environment, companies with access to these resources are well-positioned. Three players are in focus: the gold producer Barrick Mining, the exploration specialist Kobo Resources, and the oil and gas company Occidental Petroleum.

Hensoldt forges drone alliance! Nordex peaked? Over 10% dividend with RE Royalties
A dividend yield of over 10% currently makes RE Royalties shares an attractive buy. The Company finances renewable energy projects and will also participate in future earnings from these projects. With success, since 2020, the Company has grown by 38% p.a. and has paid dividends for 25 quarters. By comparison, Nordex is far from such continuity in growth. However, Nordex is currently riding a wave of growth. After a 100% increase in the share price, analysts see little potential for Nordex shares. Meanwhile, Hensoldt shares would likely have jumped after the latest announcement, as the sensor specialist is forging a new German drone alliance. Is now the time to buy?

Bombshell at Plug Power! Things are getting "critical" at Standard Lithium and Graphano Energy! Donald Trump is shaking up commodity stocks!
Investors are currently rushing to buy stocks in the rare earths, tungsten, and lithium sectors. The driving force behind this is the US government, which is investing in companies involved in critical raw materials to secure independence from China. Could Graphano Energy be next in line for government participation? In any case, no battery can function without the critical mineral, graphite. Graphano Energy is attractively valued and holds projects in Canada. Standard Lithium is benefiting from the hype surrounding critical metals. After rising more than 60% in four weeks, has a correction now arrived? Plug Power is in the midst of one. This week, the stock fell by over 20%. A capital measure and the surprising departure of the CEO are causing uncertainty.

DAX breaks 24,000 – E-mobility booming! Keep an eye on BYD, Pasinex Resources, Nordex, and Siemens Energy
In the third quarter of 2025, the global e-mobility market once again grew strongly: more than 4.2 million new electric vehicles were registered worldwide, an increase of around 28% over the previous year. China remains by far the largest single market, but Europe is also recording double-digit growth rates, driven by manufacturers such as BYD, Tesla, and Volkswagen. At the same time, investment in new battery technology is increasing in order to secure the rising demand in the long term. The raw material zinc is becoming increasingly important, not only for corrosion protection and alloys, but also as a key component in innovative zinc-air batteries, which could represent a cost-effective and sustainable alternative to lithium. This development underscores how closely raw material markets and e-mobility growth are intertwined. Here are a few investment ideas.
