High Energy Prices: How Samsung SDI, dynaCERT, and First Solar Stand to Benefit!
On Wednesday, the US inflation figures for May were released. At 4.2%, the reading came in exactly in line with market expectations, and the individual sector data were also broadly consistent with forecasts. Nevertheless, this initially triggered a sell-off in the stock market. It appears that some investors have only now realized that the conflict in the Gulf has driven up energy prices and, consequently, the prices of many other goods and services. Given the renewed US escalation in the Middle East, oil, gas, kerosene, and fertilizer prices appear set to remain at elevated levels for an extended period. For companies whose products become more competitive as energy prices rise, however, these conditions are favourable. That is why we are taking a closer look at the shares of Samsung SDI, dynaCERT, and First Solar.

AMD, American Atomics & Super Micro Computer: How to Capitalize on the Multi-Billion-Dollar AI Infrastructure Trend
Artificial intelligence requires chips and electricity. Data centers already consume as much energy as all of Japan, and demand is surging. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), global electricity consumption by these centers could rise to over 945 terawatt-hours in 2026. The problem is that renewable energy sources do not provide a constant base load. The solution is nuclear power. Tech giants like Google have long been relying on old nuclear reactors and mini-reactors. For investors, this creates a multi-billion-dollar infrastructure supercycle. Three companies are addressing it from different angles: AMD with high-performance AI accelerators, American Atomics with the critical uranium supply chain, and Super Micro Computer with highly efficient, liquid-cooled server technology.

ITM Power and Nel ASA in Correction Mode – Is dynaCERT Poised for a Breakout?
Nel ASA shares fell more than 5% yesterday alone, extending the stock's correction through June. On the positive side, the former investor favourite recently succeeded in resolving a legal dispute. ITM Power is also in correction mode. Even a new partnership in the UK has failed to halt the recent sell-off. That said, both Nel ASA and ITM Power had previously enjoyed substantial rallies, with their shares roughly doubling and more than tripling, respectively. Analysts believe dynaCERT shares are capable of such a price surge. Under its new German management team, the cleantech company has undergone a significant transformation over the past two years. Currently, the company is benefiting from elevated oil prices. There is significant interest in technology for optimizing internal combustion engines. Should dynaCERT announce larger commercial orders, the stock could attract increased investor attention and potentially continue its upward momentum.

The SpaceX Frenzy and the Urge to Travel! Caution on Lufthansa, TUI, Zefiro Methane, Shell, and BP
The SpaceX frenzy continues. With an anticipated initial valuation approaching USD 2 trillion, Elon Musk is launching what could become the largest IPO since Saudi Aramco's debut in 2019. Back then, the Saudi oil giant raised nearly USD 30 billion. Musk is now targeting an astonishing USD 75 billion. At the proposed valuation, his 42% stake would make him the world's first trillionaire. The moment of truth will come in the next few days. As the FIFA World Cup kicks off, investors may briefly have to take their eyes off the pitch to avoid missing the first trading quotes. Whether Elon Musk can successfully bring SpaceX—with crown jewels such as Starlink, xAI, and its space operations—to the NASDAQ remains to be seen. One thing is certain: volatility is already elevated, and markets are highly nervous ahead of the listing. But SpaceX is not the only story in town. Following initial signs of de-escalation in the Gulf, investors are once again turning their attention to oil stocks, while travel and tourism shares are also moving back into focus. These are interesting times for flexible investors.

Hydrogen Ramp-Up: High Costs Are Slowing the Industry – Investors Turn to First Hydrogen, Plug Power, and Nel
According to the think tank Agora Energiewende, greenhouse gas reductions in Germany stagnated in 2025, with emissions falling by only 1.5% to 640 million metric tonnes of CO₂ equivalent. Although renewable energy already covers 55.3% of electricity demand, high investment costs are slowing the transformation of energy-intensive industries. While the production cost of grey hydrogen ranges between approximately EUR 1.50 and EUR 3.30 per kg depending on the price of natural gas, green hydrogen currently costs around EUR 7.00 per kg. New regulations for renewable fuels of non-biogenic origin are likely to drive these production costs even higher by 2030. Fraunhofer experts in energy infrastructure and geotechnologies have calculated that economic viability without government demand stimulation requires a CO₂ price of well over EUR 200 per tonne—clearly an unrealistic level. So how can the hydrogen ramp-up succeed nonetheless? We take a look at companies driving innovation in the hydrogen sector.

RWE, American Atomics, Venture Global: The Winners of the New Energy Order
The Western world's energy supply is on the verge of a profound transformation. Several forward-looking industries stand to benefit from this. Liquefied natural gas remains in demand as a reliable energy source, nuclear energy is making a strong comeback as a carbon-free baseload source, and the multi-billion-dollar expansion of power grids is becoming key to the energy transition. For investors, attractive opportunities could arise from these megatrends, as the next energy rally is likely to gain momentum again following the current correction.

Cleantech Shows Strength: A Look at Nordex, Pure One, and Linde
Few sectors are bringing as many new and established companies back into the spotlight as cleantech. From solar and wind power to innovative technologies that can make the world a better and often more efficient place. For those who identify emerging trends early, the opportunities can be substantial. That is why we are taking a look today at Pure One, a company that appears poised for significant growth in the hydrogen sector. At the same time, established players also deserve attention. Industry heavyweight Linde, which has long since moved beyond supplying traditional industries, has built itself a formidable competitive moat. Investors may also want to revisit Nordex. Following its strong comeback year in 2025, the Hamburg-based company appears firmly back on a growth trajectory.

CAUTION with Siemens Energy! BUY CTS Eventim? OPPORTUNITY with Strategic Resources!
Something significant is taking shape at Strategic Resources, and investors still have an opportunity to get involved at an early stage. Unlike in Germany, Canada is actively embracing this new era and strengthening its domestic defence industry and raw materials supply chain. Strategic Resources should benefit significantly from these developments in the coming years. The company is building a value chain spanning from raw materials to the steel industry and battery manufacturing. Caution is advised with Siemens Energy. Given its current valuation, the company can ill afford any operational missteps. Moreover, developments in the US could create additional challenges. By contrast, things appear to be running more smoothly again at CTS Eventim. Analysts were positively surprised by the latest quarterly figures and have recommended the stock as a "Buy". Investors, however, remain somewhat hesitant.

The Efficiency Market: A Multi-Billion-Dollar Opportunity — Zefiro Methane, Friedrich Vorwerk, and Serviceware in Focus
For decades, many areas of the global economy have suffered from persistent underinvestment. Aging oil and gas wells, strained energy infrastructure, and inefficient corporate processes are now translating into rising costs and operational constraints. At the same time, global pressure is mounting to reduce emissions, modernize infrastructure, and improve productivity. This combination is giving rise to new, structurally driven multi-billion-dollar markets focused on efficiency and remediation. Against this backdrop, Zefiro Methane, Friedrich Vorwerk, and Serviceware currently appear particularly promising. Although active in very different industries, the three companies are linked by a common economic function: they eliminate inefficiencies and benefit from the fact that the economy and society must clean up their act and invest heavily.

Energy Transition Meets AI Boom: Siemens Energy, RE Royalties, and NextEra Energy in Focus
The rapid expansion of renewable energy is colliding with the insatiable appetite for electricity driven by artificial intelligence. This collision is creating a demand gap in the electricity sector unlike anything seen before. While data centers are popping up worldwide, the expansion of wind and solar power plants can barely keep up. The result is a structural shortage of clean electricity. Investors can benefit from this perfect environment. Those who bet on the right companies now can benefit disproportionately from this convergence of megatrends. That is why we are looking today at Siemens Energy as a technology supplier, RE Royalties as an innovative financier, and NextEra Energy as the largest producer of green energy.
