Steinhoff, Sierra Grande Minerals, Barrick Gold - Played into the cards
The latest inflation data in the world's largest economy, the USA, plays into the central bank's strategy cards. After 5.4% in the previous month, the inflation rate weakened moderately to 5.3% in August, breaking the trend that had been rising for months for the first time. The FED, which sees the hype in the inflation curve as temporary due to the recovery after the Corona Crisis, thus feels vindicated and continues its ultra-loose monetary policy with bond purchases of USD 120 billion per month in favor of growth.

Xiaomi, Troilus Gold, Merck - First-class developments
Substantial gains were recently seen in consumer and producer prices in Germany and Europe. Inflation in Germany reached its highest level in almost 28 years in August and is close to breaking through the 4% mark. In contrast to central banks, which consider the rate of inflation to be temporary and continue to maintain an ultra-loose monetary policy with interest rates at zero percent, economists expect inflation to remain permanently high. There is a threat of a decline in the value of money, which could be slowed down by buying gold. Currently, the precious metal is still trading at a favorable level.

Gazprom, Barsele Minerals, Agnico-Eagle, Nordex - The energies of the future!
Election Sunday in Germany is approaching. No matter who will win the race at the end of September, the goals in climate policy have been put on the agenda by every party. In the future, it will not be possible to ignore this issue because young voters, in particular, are rightly concerned about the living conditions for the next generations. The decisive factor will be the course set in energy policy.

BASF, Desert Gold, Moderna, BioNTech - Keep going, keep going!
The Delta variant is teaching the markets to be afraid. After the economy was humming in the past two quarters, disillusionment is now slowly setting in. The unexpectedly weak labor market data in the US in August demonstrated this. Outside of agriculture, only 235,000 new jobs were created compared with the forecast of 728,000 new jobs. Thus, the market's fear of an end to loose monetary policy and possible interest rate hikes should also be off the table.

Tencent, Alibaba, Kainantu Resources, Aixtron - Asia on the rise!
The international supremacy of the USA is closely linked to the status of the US dollar as the world's reserve currency. However, the United States has turned the debt wheel too far and weakened itself through unwise policies. Outdated power interests and isolationism hinder economic dynamism, and they undermine well thought-out trade strategies. Asia has relied on modern infrastructure for decades, and not just at home. Public infrastructure in the US is dilapidated to the level of the last millennium. The new Silk Road and the takeover of international seaports and airports have recently given China a crystal-clear lead. That is why the Silk Road does not end in New York but Europe.

Desert Gold, MorphoSys, TUI - Are there game-changers in these stocks?
When the stock market has already made a decent run, many investors search for laggards or game-changers. In the case of the so-called laggards, 90% of the reasons why the stock is not performing are fundamental, usually due to complicated or low-margin business models or simply a wrong management approach. The temptation is great to buy charts at the bottom right of the screen according to the motto: "Now the downward trend is over!". This view is unfortunately 90% wrong because the stock market is trend and momentum-driven. So what remains is to try to find so-called "game-changer" stocks. Here, the entire situation changes fundamentally due to an event, and the trend often turns with an initial price jump.

BYD, Kainantu Resources, DWS - Investing against the tide
It is well known that a successful long-term strategy in times of high inflation is to invest in tangible assets.

Heidelberger Druckmaschinen, Troilus Gold, TUI: The Power of Transformation
Transformations are the salt in the soup of the stock market. Whenever companies break new ground, win new customers or enter completely new territory, opportunities arise for investors. At the beginning of such developments, the market usually does not quite believe in the chances. But then, more and more investors jump on the bandwagon and boost the share price. The further transformations go, the greater the associated opportunities. We present three companies that are breaking new ground and classify their prospects.

Siemens, Barsele Minerals, Lufthansa - Shares to take off
The stock indices continue to be on the rise. Disappointing labor market data and rising infection figures due to the Delta variant make possible interest rate hikes and an end to the bond-buying program by central banks a distant prospect. The ultra-loose monetary policy with further stimulus measures by the FED is thus likely to be continued and opens the door for further bullishness on the stock market.

ThyssenKrupp, Triumph Gold, Siemens Energy - Is the turnaround coming?
Despite galloping inflation, Jerome Powell took away the skepticism of market participants and assured them that an interest rate hike is still a long way off. The markets were delighted and have been rising ever since. But not all companies have seen their share prices rise. It is worth taking a closer look because many companies are fundamentally expensive. So one has to go bargain hunting. Often there are good reasons for lower share prices, but there are also hidden gems that want to be picked up. Today we take a look at three companies whose share prices are not getting off the ground.
