Penny stocks without risk? Nikola Corporation, Steinhoff, Orestone Mining
They have always held great appeal for investors: Penny stocks. Whenever shares are trading below one euro, gamblers pounce on them. But why is that? And are all penny stocks speculative? We explain the phenomenon of penny stocks using three stocks as examples. This much can already be revealed: They range from speculative to promising. Nevertheless, investors should keep their hands off one share.

Newmont, Tocvan Ventures, Rheinmetall - The lights are green
With a weaker-than-expected fall in inflation worldwide, plus a war in Ukraine that continues to escalate, the general conditions point to a long-term rise in the gold price above its all-time high reached weeks ago. With a threatened default in the United States, another argument for a gold bull market could now be added. Be prepared.

BYD, Orestone Mining, SMA Solar - Copper is the lifeline of the energy transition
Copper is an essential component of the energy transition. It has proven to be a key material for the production and operation of electric cars and solar plants because it is conductive, flexible and durable. It is also used in many other applications. The copper price has been in an intact upward trend since July last year. Copper serves as a leading indicator for the economy, and even if the price has recently come back a little, experts expect a further increase in the 2nd half of the year. Electric vehicles are on the rise worldwide and especially in China. The Middle Kingdom is hungry for raw materials. In the past few months, more gold has been bought. Today we look at three companies for which copper is important.

Tocvan Ventures, Palantir, Rheinmetall - Well equipped with gold, AI and defence
The US banking crisis continues to move in circles, this time in slow motion instead of at the record pace of 2008. Alternatives are needed to ensure that investors are well-equipped in these times. Precious metals like gold have always been an option. Tocvan Ventures, as an exploration company, offers a promising gold and silver project called Pilar in Mexico. The launch of Palantir's first AI platform, which is located in the defence sector, also sounds promising. In view of the profit forecast, the share price jumped by a whopping 22%. Significant price gains are also to be expected at Rheinmetall. An undisclosed major order will keep the cash registers ringing for the arms giant on the Rhine, even in times of peace.

Manuka Resources, Fresenius, Amazon - Gold to offset economic dismantling and restriction measures?
For decades, the annual production of gold has been increasing. In 2020, a total of 3200 tonnes of gold was produced, with China as the largest gold producer in the world, followed by Australia and Russia. Manuka Resources is an explorer and gold producer in Australia. The Company has now developed a 3-year gold production plan to give its shareholders the most value possible. A solid precious metal like gold can provide balance in turbulent times. Fresenius, for example, is in the midst of a turnaround and is reporting its first results. Things can get tight for Amazon, Microsoft and Alphabet if the EU enforces its new cybersecurity directives - but this can also turn out to be an advantage.

Barrick Gold, Globex Mining, Deutsche Bank - Gold in rally mode
The turmoil in the banking industry has recently hit Western Alliance Bancorporation. With the demise of Silicon Valley Bank, the gold price gained momentum and is heading for its all-time high. The constant increase of the money supply by the central banks and the threatening insolvency of the US support the gold price just as much as the gold purchases from China. In April, China collected another 8.1 tonnes of gold, about 10 tonnes less than in the previous month. In Q1, gold purchases by central banks were at record levels. Good for gold producers and explorers. We look at two today and see if Deutsche Bank has recovered after the turmoil.

Impending financial crisis 3.0 boosts gold: Desert Gold Ventures, Deutsche Bank, Allianz - This is where the music plays!
And another double interest rate hike. First the FED, now the ECB followed suit last week, as expected. Monetary policy is trying a dangerous balancing act, as the US banking sector is tottering, and at the same time, inflation rates remain high. Now lavish wage settlements are added to the mix, and the second-round effects are on. The aggressive interest rate hikes and the collapsing real estate market have been among the factors causing stress in the banking sector. Profiteers are few and far between at the moment, but precious metals are back on the buy list. What about the prominence of the German financial industry?

The banking tremors continue: With First Republic Bank and its distress sale to JP Morgan, it becomes clear once again that rising interest rates have the potential to plunge the economy into a deep crisis.
