SIEMENS, NEL, BLACKROCK GOLD: Gold before the next buying wave!
The US-Department of Labor did not have good news to share yesterday. Although the number of initial applications for benefits from the US unemployment insurance scheme decreased in the week ending September 26, seasonally adjusted, it still amounted to 837,000, which was then corrected upward to 873,000. Compared to the previous week, this is only 36,000 fewer than previously reported. 11.77 million people now receive unemployment benefits in the USA. The gold market has known for a while now of the huge hole in the public coffers, due to the economic slump of over 30%, created by the pandemic. The latest market correction is complete, and it is heading north again at rates of over USD 1,900.00.

Barrick Gold, Blackrock Gold, Osino Resources: buy when weak?
The price of gold and silver has come under pressure in the past few days and so too has the price of the shares of the companies involved in the creation of value for precious metals. The fear of another lockdown in connection with the Corona pandemic seems to be worrying the markets. Against this backdrop the central banks and governments continue to support the economy with measures. The correction in precious metals may now be an opportunity to enter, because when the presses are running at full speed, the oldest currency in the world is usually a safe haven.

BHP Group, Newcrest Mining, SolGold: Getting bogged down or putting all your eggs in one basket
When it comes to investing in commodity companies, the BHP Group is a household name. The British company is active worldwide, mining coal, iron ore, copper and other commodities and has long been considered a solid dividend earner. But recently the company has disappointed: Special effects put pressure on profits, unrest in Chile made life difficult for BHP and the Corona pandemic also left its mark: the bottom line at the end of the financial year at the end of June was a profit of no less than EUR 6.75 billion. While the mood among investors was not particularly good, BHP cut its dividend by around ten percent, thus spoiling shareholders’ sentiment even further. On a year-on-year basis, the share price fell by around 1.4%. In view of the good performance of copper following the outbreak of the pandemic, this is too little for many investors.

B2Gold, Barrick Gold, Desert Gold: Did Warren Buffett bet on the right horse?
The price of gold has stabilized above the USD 1,900.00 per troy ounce mark in recent weeks. Against the background that the Corona Pandemic is not slowing down and that a second wave is becoming measurable in many places, the actions taken by governments and central banks are continuing cheerfully, thus ensuring further demand for the world's oldest currency. Those who want to protect their assets are probably best off buying shares in a gold company like Warren Buffett, and for those who can't decide, there is also a solution.

Newcrest Mining, Barrick Gold, Blackrock Gold: Eat and be eaten
Major gold producers are shining with fundamental data. This increases the scope for important acquisitions. At the same time, young companies are attracting attention. Is a wave of takeovers following?
Gold has become a serious alternative for many investors. Even investment professionals, who until now have tended to focus on bonds, are now adding precious metals to their portfolios. Due to high liquidity and certain investment guidelines among professional investors, equities are also increasingly becoming the focus of attention. But not all shares are the same - investors should not blindly buy everything that has "gold" or "mining" in its name.

Allianz, Bayer, Newlox - Opportunities and risks go hand in hand
If the shares of the U.S. company Apple fluctuate, then the impact on market capitalization may well amount to the entire equivalent value of the fourth-largest DAX company, Allianz. Apple's market value is around EUR 1,640 billion, and against this, Germany's insurance giant, at around EUR 75 billion, looks like a delicate little plant. There are various reasons for this, which lie beyond the objective or fundamental valuation. For one thing, more German investors buy the shares of U.S. companies than the other way around, and moreover, premium smartphones and tablets are simply more exciting for the younger generation of investors than insurance policies. From this perspective, healthy diversification makes perfect sense.

AngloGold Ashanti, Newmont, Velocity Minerals: Where does price potential slumber?
While the German government is thinking about softening the insolvency law even longer than expected and thus keeping many ailing companies alive, central banks make no secret of continuing the path of cheap money they embarked on immediately after the outbreak of the Corona pandemic. As a first reaction, the prices of gold and companies related to the mining of gold climbed significantly. Currently the prices have come back somewhat. Since the basic fundamental situation around the precious metal is still intact, the current phase should be seen in retrospect as a pause for breath. Reason enough to take a closer look at three companies from the gold sector.

B2Gold, Barrick, Blackrock Gold - who doubles its value the fastest?
Since Warren Buffett and his investment company Berkshire Hathaway joined Barrick, investors and media have tended to change their minds about the world's oldest currency. In the past, the US star investor has made no secret of the fact that, in his opinion, the expense of gold mining and subsequent monitoring is, in a sense, insane. In the meantime, however, the oracle from Omaha seems to have come to the conclusion that there is a lot of money to be made as a producer at the current price level and that demand for the precious metal will remain stable in the future due to the measures taken by the central banks.

Barrick Gold, Desert Gold, SolGold - Buffett's Berkshire gives the starting signal
When on Friday evening after trading hours the news went on the tickers that one of the richest people in the world was switching from banks to gold, then this in itself would have received attention. But that of all people Warren Buffett with his investment company Berkshire Hathaway is now investing in the gold sector has a completely different quality for the investment community. Buffett has always refused to invest in gold, this new attitude towards the precious metal will be the starting signal for a rally through new investor circles. In addition to Amazon, Apple, Facebook, Google, Microsoft and Tesla, gold shares obviously also belong in the portfolio. An exciting stock market week with buying opportunities begins.

Barrick Gold, Scottie Resources, Triumph Gold - Entry chance after rally
Who would have thought that a report on a Covid-19 vaccine from Russia would bring a breather to the gold rally? Within 24 hours, the price of the precious metal slipped through the USD 2,000.00 and USD 1,900.00 markers, recording a loss in value of around USD 150.00 per troy ounce. Currently the price is trading at USD 1,880.00 and the correction is the largest since March 2020, when the panic about the spread of the Corona virus was at its highest. Gold's rise has already begun in May 2019 at below USD 1,300.00 and the current trend may offer an excellent entry opportunity.
