Barrick Gold, Barsele Minerals, Merck KGaA - Much movement in the market
Currently, there is little movement in the gold market. The gold price peaked at around USD 2,070 an ounce in the summer of last year, and it is now consolidating around USD 1,800. Investors prefer to invest in higher-yielding assets such as equities or cryptocurrencies despite the economic environment with high inflation and historically low-interest rates. Behind the scenes, however, a lot is going on in the gold market. Most recently, for example, Tembo Gold announced its entry by Barrick Gold, with further acquisitions to follow.

Nordex, Osino Resources, Standard Lithium: Politics as a guarantor of returns
The markets have recovered a little after the Omicron shock. However, uncertainty remains. So how to invest? Investors can look to intact major trends that are also supported by politics. This approach could create a kind of risk buffer for turbulent times. We explain what lies behind this approach and present three possible investments as examples.

TeamViewer, Alerio Gold, Nvidia - Important impulses
The stock markets breathe a sigh of relief, with worries about the spread of the new Omicron variant being pushed aside for the time being. After a consolidation in the area around 15,200 points, the DAX also resumes its rebound towards 16,000 points. The year-end rally is alive and well. Driven by good news, the TeamViewer share can also send the first sign of life after the substantial price losses of the past weeks. Is this a sustainable trend reversal or merely a breather in the overarching downward movement?

Tembo Gold, Barrick Gold, Valneva - Sensation on the gold market
Gold mining companies have been in the shadows for months, the gold price is consolidating, and investors are looking for higher-yielding investments such as equities or cryptocurrencies. But behind the scenes, things are bubbling up. Gold producers are sitting on a mountain of cash and looking for interesting takeover targets at current levels. Now, one company has announced a milestone in its history.

Zoom, Prospect Ridge Resources, Twitter - New start after Waterloo
The stock market led the way in recent weeks and went into a broad-based correction phase. Last but not least, cryptocurrencies were hit last Friday. Bitcoin lost a good 25% of its value within hours, and Etherum also slumped by double digits. Following the price disaster, it is now time to lick wounds and put the right values for the next upward movement anti-cyclically in the portfolio.

Standard Lithium, Triumph Gold, American Lithium, Alpha Lithium - Is lithium the new gold?
The last quarter of 2021 is clearly dominated by the star "lithium". In the fall of 2020, all battery metals exploded after Tesla's Battery Day; this year, the political shifts towards red-green ignited the rocket for the "climate protection hype", at least in Central Europe. Gold took a back seat in this techno-hype because no one needed to hedge in this environment. However, this is surprising since the ECB announced a record inflation rate of plus 5.2%. We take a look at a selection of gold-modified stocks.

Desert Gold, Barrick, First Majestic - Countercyclical opportunities!
The drop of the gold price below USD 1,800 opens up first-class countercyclical investment opportunities for long-term investors. The high inflation worldwide and the low-interest rate policy speak for precious metals as inflation protection and crisis currency. High-quality gold shares have historically outperformed the underlying over longer periods. Who will be ahead in 2022?

TUI, Lufthansa, Alerio Gold, Carnival - This winter travel will not be golden!
The upward movement at the stock exchanges is very advanced because the higher valuation of the shares is continuously alimented by cheap money from the central banks. But now, the statistics show real inflationary pushes; for Europe, the inflation on an annual basis amounted to +4.4% in October. It is generally known that these rates do not correspond very closely to reality due to their hedonic measurement method; the actual price markup in the relevant goods is probably already beyond the 6% mark. Based on these dynamics, FED observers assume that the US central bank could double the pace of the current tapering so that bond purchases could end as early as March. That would probably have the first contractionary effects. What about gold and travel in this environment?

Steinhoff, Triumph Gold, JinkoSolar - On a knife-edge
The DAX was on the verge of falling below the 15,000 point mark, which had been successfully tested several times, and the nerves of traders and asset managers were put to the test concerning an impending sell-off in the leading index. Then the market turned around, and the chart picture brightened considerably. Chances for a conciliatory end of the year are still there, partly because on the part of science, at least a little confidence was spread concerning the omicron variant.

Nordex, MAS Gold, Deutsche Telekom - Should you invest now?
Is the year-end rally starting now, or is the next lockdown coming for Germany? The Federal Constitutional Court ruled on Tuesday that the federal emergency brake was legal, and thus the politicians get much more leeway. Not only the current Corona situation but also the new mutant Omicron is causing worry lines. According to a report from Tuesday, according to Tagesschau, there are currently 42 Omicron cases in 10 EU countries. Whether the current vaccine is also effective against the new variant has not yet been conclusively clarified. It will be interesting to see how the new traffic light government will proceed. In addition to Corona, investors should keep an eye on inflation, which has risen steadily of late.
