Daimler Truck, First Hydrogen, Siemens Energy – Hydrogen with rebound potential
From a stock market perspective, 2024 was a year to forget for companies in the hydrogen fuel cell segment. Companies like Plug Power and Nel ASA faced significant setbacks, continuing to shed the inflated valuations that had ballooned since the pandemic lows. There is no question that hydrogen technology remains fundamental to the climate turnaround. However, smaller, innovative competitors are now pushing their way to the fore and could benefit disproportionately from the next upward wave.

The energy year 2025! Uranium stocks such as Oklo, NuScale and F3 Uranium are in high demand, as are Nel ASA and Plug Power
In 2007, a pound of uranium occasionally cost more than USD 140 per pound before a long decline in prices began. With the outbreak of the Fukushima disaster in 2011, the mood against nuclear power reached its peak and forced the uranium price even below USD 50. Since the "NetZero" wave, however, it has been rising unchecked because, according to the World Energy Agency, nuclear power is now once again being classified as environmentally friendly compared to fossil fuels. Currently, 439 reactors are operational worldwide, with 64 under construction and 88 planned. Uranium demand is, therefore, set to rise by a good 30%, which is not a good sign for the hydrogen industry because this is where government investment is urgently needed. F3 Uranium has extensive concessions in the world's largest uranium mining district: the Athabasca Basin. The industry is preparing for the coming supply shortage with acquisitions and purchases. Good returns are on offer for risk-conscious investors.

Horror for Nel share! Nordex and First Hydrogen impress!
Nel ASA is plunging - both operationally and in its stock performance. The hydrogen pioneer is shocking the capital market with massive job cuts and a production stop at its main plant. What are the reasons? Is there any improvement in sight? On the day of the Nel crash, First Hydrogen delivered a positive highlight. As a result, the share price even rose slightly. The technology company belongs to the new generation of hydrogen specialists. Its fuel cell commercial vehicles have passed the practical test, and the stock appears ready for a re-rating. Analysts believe that Nordex shares could make a comeback. The Company is considered one of the promising German midcaps. Operationally, things are going well, too, with a new major order from North America recently reported.

Greentech stocks make a flying start in 2025 – Tax package on the way? Nel ASA, dynaCERT, Plug Power, and Nordex in focus
The stock market kicked off the year with significant volatility. However, while the DAX 40 index is setting new records daily, the NASDAQ is consolidating at a very high level. Some profit-taking is weighing on the recently favoured "Magnificent 7" stocks, while long-neglected stocks in the greentech sector are starting to make a comeback. Canadian hydrogen specialist dynaCERT has now cleared all regulatory hurdles and strengthened its emissions trading team with the appointment of a new board member. In Germany alone, the environmental certificate market represents an annual volume of EUR 18.5 billion. We analyze which greentech stocks are now in a position to unlock their potential.

Bayer, First Hydrogen, Volkswagen – Turnaround Candidates for 2025 Under Review
After the year-end portfolio window-dressing in December, the new year starts with the hunt for the right stocks for 2025. Special attention should be given to turnaround candidates, meaning stocks that underperformed last year. These companies have faced challenging times and have often already begun addressing their issues through strategic realignment. Sometimes, market conditions for a sector can improve significantly from one year to the next, and then the stocks of these companies often rise disproportionately. Identifying the right stocks requires thorough research. We look at three potential turnaround candidates.

RESCUE for Lilium!? HYDROGEN WINNERS dynaCERT and thyssenkrupp nucera instead of Nel and Plug Power Share!
dynaCERT and thyssenkrupp nucera have emerged as new hydrogen favourites in the past year. dynaCERT's shares almost doubled in the second half of the year, and there is a good chance that a new multi-year high will be reached in 2025. The technology is convincing customers, and new major orders would justify a revaluation. thyssenkrupp nucera has already proven that it can operate profitably - a milestone that former favourites Nel and Plug Power have yet to achieve. Similarly, Lilium filed for insolvency just before Christmas, but now investors, including Frank Thelen, are expected to inject millions. Is this the rescue?

Automotive revolution: BYD leads the way in electric power, First Hydrogen focuses on hydrogen, and Porsche loses market share
The mobility revolution is in full swing. Whether in the automotive or energy production sectors, innovative CEOs and daring engineers worldwide are working on environmentally friendly drives and energy sources. The Chinese automaker BYD impressively demonstrates the success of its aggressive pricing strategy and a broad model range from hybrid to electric vehicles. It is only a few sales figures away from the top dog Tesla, then BYD is number 1 worldwide. The innovative company First Hydrogen is even going one step further in its planning. In addition to its hydrogen-powered commercial vehicles, it plans to build several mini-reactors to produce hydrogen. These mini-reactors will be used by tech giants like Google in the future. While it used to be ahead of everyone else, Porsche is currently driving with the handbrake on. Last year's sharp drop in share prices is forcing the Company to change its strategy. Even its largest market to date, China, is collapsing. Find out here what the Stuttgart-based company is banking on this year.

+500% return in 2025 with D-Wave, Plug Power, or BMW partner European Lithium stock?
500% price gain in 2 months! This is extraordinary but possible, as D-Wave's share price demonstrated at the end of 2024. Analysts believe that European Lithium's share price is capable of a similar price jump. Maybe not in 2 months, but there is massive upside potential expected by March. Experts believe that lithium can make a comeback in the new year. BMW partner European Lithium, with deposits in Austria and Ireland, should benefit from this. Additionally, the Company has other valuable resources, including rare earth elements. Plug Power shareholders are hoping for a hydrogen comeback. Can the turnaround succeed, or is insolvency looming at the start of the year? By contrast, quantum computing is likely to continue to electrify the stock market in the new year. So, will the rally continue for D-Wave & Co.?

dynaCERT, Mercedes-Benz and Volkswagen: Three strategies for the mobility transition
The automotive industry is undergoing a unique transformation: innovative technologies are creating new markets, while established European manufacturers are struggling with tighter environmental regulations. The Canadian company dynaCERT offers an applicable interim solution with its HydraGEN™ technology: the switchable retrofitting of conventional diesel engines with hydrogen technology enables significantly lower CO₂ emissions. Ideal for logistics, shipping and mining. dynaCERT is enjoying profitable new business in the Mexican mining industry. For Mercedes-Benz, Mexico is also the mobility country of the future. The Company is setting new records there with its bus business and dominating the sector, achieving a market share of 45%. In contrast, the German carmaker Volkswagen is suffering from a lack of demand for electric mobility at its home base. It plans to avert the impending crisis by cutting 35,000 jobs. Where should investors be looking now?
