McDonald's, Barsele Minerals, ING Group - Golden instead of Chicken McNugget
The crisis currency gold has already marked new all-time highs in the euro currency. In the case of the dollar, the precious metal moved above the psychologically important USD 2,000 mark, at least briefly. From a technical perspective, the next target is the high at USD 2,074.40. Various companies currently have entirely different concerns with regard to their high exposure to Russia. In contrast to other competitors, fast-food giant McDonald's is being hit extremely hard.

K+S, Phoenix Copper, Barrick Gold - Commodities as portfolio boosters
Prices for raw materials went through the roof last year. On the one hand, the global economy recovered faster than expected. On the other hand, demand for copper increased significantly, especially due to the turnaround in the automotive industry. Now, raw materials are becoming scarce again, as Russia is partially eliminated as an exporter of raw materials. It means that supply is lagging behind demand and resulting in rising prices. Especially for oil, gas and wheat, supply is expected to tighten significantly. Today we present three exciting commodity companies that could benefit from the crisis.

MAS Gold, Nordex, Hensoldt - Profit from the crisis!
War in Europe! After the end of the Balkan conflict and the ceasefire in Northern Ireland and the Basque country, no one could have imagined that it could happen again so quickly. On the stock exchanges, armed conflicts seldom cause storms of enthusiasm. On the contrary, investors take refuge in supposedly "safe investments," such as precious metals. Therefore, it is all the more important to closely examine the news situation in order to identify which stocks can benefit from the overall negative situation.

Bayer, Desert Gold, K+S - Market facing redistribution
Since Russia invaded Ukraine last week, the world has literally been turned upside down. There is bewilderment at the violence of the Russian president. Western nations are responding with sanctions against Russia, such as excluding Russian banks from the SWIFT system. In addition, the plan is to extend sanctions to other companies in various industries. Companies that are not affected benefit from this and gain market share. For example, the fertilizer industry is facing a redistribution of market conditions in favor of German suppliers.

Gazprom, BP, Barrick Gold, Ximen Mining - Putin's Ukraine conflict boosts gold and silver!
Over the weekend, the buzzword "mobilization of nuclear weapons" was heard in the media. In the ears of investors, the loud saber-rattling sounded like the starting signal for a gold and silver rally. Events then rolled over in sequence: Russian accounts were frozen, the SWIFT system was disconnected, and there were likely payment difficulties at Sberbank. The sponsorship contract with Gazprom was terminated by Schalke 04 without notice. In this country, people are wondering what medium-term effects the Russian crisis will have on society, the relationship with Russia in general, and the economy. In this context, we are watching a few interesting stocks.

Nordex, Rheinmetall, Triumph Gold: Russia crisis causes price swings
Since last Thursday, war has been raging in the euro, and the world has been spinning faster. Over the weekend, Chancellor Scholz announced a new defense and energy policy for Germany in response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The German armed forces is to receive EUR 100 billion as special assets. In addition, according to Chancellor Scholz, NATO's 2% target is to be met in the future. Energy independence is to be increased by, among other things, two German LNG terminals. Finance Minister Lindner calls renewables "freedom energies." Accordingly, shares in Nordex and Rheinmetall were in strong demand on Monday. The price of gold also picked up, with Triumph Gold's shares posting double-digit gains.

Dt. Telekom, Barsele Minerals, Munich Re - Top opportunities with discount!
In the last few days, what was supposed to be prevented by diplomacy has become the bitter truth. Russia, in the person of Russian President Putin, has made the decision for a military operation and has advanced with its troops into eastern Ukraine. A heavy blow for the stock market, sending the DAX temporarily down more than 5% below the 14,000 point mark. That political stock markets have short legs has been shown all too often in the past. As a result, investors should take a closer look at companies that have lost significant value due to the Ukraine crisis but are making significant fundamental progress.

Rio Tinto, Triumph Gold, Nestlé - Conflicts and inflation
Producer prices of industrial products in Germany were 25% higher in January 2022 than in the same period last year. According to the Federal Statistical Office (Destatis), this represents the highest increase since the survey began in 1949. The main reason for the sudden increase is the sharp rise in energy prices. Price increases compared with the previous year were also particularly high for secondary raw materials such as paper and cardboard (+72.7%), butter (up 61.1%) and wooden packaging materials (+65.7%). The situation in Ukraine is getting worse, which is likely to fuel electricity and energy costs once again.

Barrick Gold, MAS Gold, Gazprom - The conflict and its consequences
The next level of escalation in the Ukraine conflict has been ignited, and the consequences are severe. Oil prices moved close to the USD 100 mark, posting their highest levels since the end of 2014, and the precious metal gold shot above the important USD 1,900 mark. The stock markets buckled dramatically in the first hours of trading, only to start a rally and price fireworks in the course of trading. Despite the still acute concerns about an expansion of the conflict, a trend reversal may already have been heralded in the German benchmark index.
