Rheinmetall, XXIX Metal, Newmont – The Merz trade is on
The traffic light coalition is history. Chancellor Olaf Scholz suffered a shipwreck and achieved the worst election result for the SPD in the post-war period. The new strong man at the helm, CDU frontman Friedrich Merz, already stated in advance that Germany would support Ukraine even more strongly, which means that armaments companies are likely to be among the long-term profiteers. The price of gold also performed strongly afterwards, heading towards the USD 3,000 per ounce mark. Copper could also continue its turnaround, benefiting undervalued producers and exploration companies.

RWE, First Nordic Metals, and Siemens Energy: Europe's new energy independence is gathering pace
Germany is still feeling the effects of the sabotage of the Russian gas pipelines years later. Expensive energy costs are driving industry to the brink of ruin. Solutions are needed to bring the European country back to the forefront economically. Energy company RWE is setting a good example by launching large-scale battery storage systems in two cities that can provide energy for critical infrastructure within seconds. This project demonstrates how Germany is future-proofing its energy supply. First Nordic Metals is working to make Europe independent of raw materials and is conducting exploration projects with a focus on gold in Scandinavia. This precious metal offers a solid hedge, especially in times of crisis. Adam Cegielski, recently appointed president, strengthens the team with his 25 years of industry experience. Siemens Energy is banking on growth on the French coast: the Company is investing EUR 200 million to build offshore wind turbine rotor blades. This will not only create 200 new jobs but also send a strong signal for Europe's path toward energy independence.

DAX makes a decent correction – Gold sets its sights on the USD 3,000 mark! Caution advised with Palantir, Barrick, Desert Gold, Lufthansa, and TUI
After weeks of gains, the DAX 40 index saw its first noticeable correction yesterday. It rose to 22,935 in the morning, but by the evening, it had fallen to just 22,450. Hardly anyone had considered that the one-way street of rising valuations would eventually come to an end. Will the correction continue and perhaps go really deep? The opposite is currently true for gold. The inflation figures from the UK of a smooth 3% in January are causing the central bank to break out in a cold sweat. Adieu interest rate cuts – instead, gold is appreciating again and reached a new all-time high of USD 2,945. We look at the winners and losers. It is time to position yourself correctly.

Renk in a SUPERCYCLE! Elon Musk wants gold! USD 3,500 an ounce? Barrick off to a good start, but Globex Mining does better!
Will Renk shares soon reach an all-time high? The EUR 30 mark was broken yesterday. According to analysts, the defense stock will likely continue its FOMO rally. Like Hensoldt and Rheinmetall, the transmission manufacturer is in the supercycle. There is also news from Elon Musk. He wants to examine US gold reserves! This is once again leading to conspiracy theories – this time, the question is whether there is actually gold in Fort Knox. Meanwhile, experts see the gold price marching towards USD 3,500. The rally has now even reached the crisis-stricken Barrick Gold, with the stock climbing after recent announcements. Is all the bad news priced in? The stock of Globex Mining is performing significantly better than Barrick. And at the mine incubator, the price is being driven by positive newsflow. With its risk-diversified commodity portfolio, the stock still has potential.

thyssenkrupp, Golden Cariboo Resources, Intel – Which comeback strategy will pay off?
In a world where raw materials are becoming scarcer, markets more volatile, and technologies more disruptive, companies face a threefold challenge: they must transform, innovate, and, at the same time, preserve their roots. This balance between tradition and the future currently shapes three publicly traded companies that could not be more different – yet all three have long histories to look back on. thyssenkrupp, a former industrial giant, is in the midst of a transformation. Golden Cariboo Resources, with its "Quesnelle Gold Quartz Mine," can trace its history back to 1865 and has recently presented exciting drilling results. Meanwhile, Intel, a semiconductor giant, is grappling with the aftermath of a technological sprint that has catapulted the industry into a new era.

Palantir, First Nordic Metals, Barrick Gold – WATCH OUT: These stocks are on the move!
The tech industry celebrates Palantir as an AI pioneer: With a 390% price increase in 2024 and a forecast of USD 3.75 billion in revenue in 2025, the Company is convincing with its government and commercial AI solutions – but the P/E ratio of 600 raises sustainability questions. Meanwhile, First Nordic Metals is building on exploration momentum in the Scandinavian gold sector: new anomalies and cost-efficient drilling techniques are driving the stock. Barrick Gold, in turn, combines robustness (19% revenue growth) with geopolitical challenges in Mali and long-term, large-scale projects. We take a look at which companies offer potential and where valuations could be too high.

Barrick Gold, First Nordic Metals, MicroStrategy – Profiteers in the bull market
The gold price is unstoppable and reached the USD 2,800 per ounce mark for the first time in its long history during the past trading week. In comparison, gold producers such as Barrick Gold or Newmont are trading well below their highs. However, should the underlying asset remain at this high level, the profits of precious metals companies are likely to skyrocket. By then, producers, as well as exploration companies, should start to catch up.

Palantir, Desert Gold, MicroStrategy – Profits with data, gold, and Bitcoin
In times of looming trade war and high volatility, as recently triggered by DeepSeek, one should invest in booming business models. Otherwise, in these turbulent times, it is wise to move at least part of your portfolio into "safe havens." Traditionally, this has been gold, but for the younger generation, who are more willing to take risks, it is cryptocurrencies. To outperform the market in the long term requires patience and foresight. Today, we look at three companies in the fields of data processing, gold, and cryptocurrencies and examine where the risks and opportunities lie.

Puma, Nordex, and Power Nickel - Potential for a price jump? Analysts see opportunities in these stocks
Power Nickel's shares were among the commodity high flyers of 2024. The upward trend appears to be continuing in the new year. Power Nickel's high-grade Nisk project is increasingly turning into a gold mine with numerous valuable metals. To increase its value further, it will continue to drill and spin off non-core activities. Will analysts soon be raising their price targets? Puma shareholders have been waiting in vain for a price jump for quite some time. The sporting goods company is caught in a margin trap. The target prices are widely divergent. After difficult years, Nordex is actually doing well. But the US is becoming more and more of a concern. And now there is also a headwind in Germany.
