Nvidia, Defense Metals, Uniper - Valuable commodities for trillion-dollar digital market
Digital transformation is critical for industrial companies worldwide to remain competitive and gain strategic advantage. In this context, Nvidia and Hexagon have partnered to provide companies with a comprehensive set of solutions for accelerating industrial digitalization. Defense Metals, on the other hand, secured the supply of essential rare earths for the global energy transition with a successful hydrometallurgical trial and feasibility study. The Wicheeda project in British Columbia strengthens the local energy supply and offers strategic advantages in defence, security and green technology. Uniper, an international energy company, relies on biomass instead of natural gas for energy production. With the construction of a syngas plant in the Netherlands, the Company aims to replace natural gas with sustainable gas in chemical production processes.

BYD, Globex Mining, First Hydrogen - Breakthrough results
Despite all the prophecies of doom, the world's stock markets are continuing their upward trend; neither the strict monetary policy of the central banks nor the geopolitical uncertainties have slowed them down so far. Among individual stocks, several companies have reported positive surprises in recent weeks, which should lead to further price increases in the long term. Due to the general correction in recent months, there are attractive entry opportunities, especially in the technology and mining sectors.

Nel ASA, First Hydrogen, Plug Power - Paving the way for hydrogen technology
Germany has shut down its nuclear power plants, and now the expansion of renewable energies is to be accelerated. But what happens to the surplus electricity when the sun shines all day? In order not to overload the grids, the energy is given away to neighbouring countries. In the future, it will be turned into green hydrogen that can cover the energy needs of industry and the transport sector. On May 25, the Federal Cabinet passed an amendment to the Energy Industry Act that defines the legal framework for a future hydrogen core network in Germany. Hydrogen technology will not only prevail in Germany. We, therefore, take a look at three international hydrogen companies.

Hydrogen drumbeat - where things can move quickly now: Plug Power, NEL, dynaCERT
Green hydrogen is becoming a key technology for the industry in the fight against climate change. Wirtschaftswoche reports that by 2030, a whopping 13 million tons of hydrogen will be produced annually in Europe. But the necessary investments are still lacking. In the US, USD 10 billion have already been invested in hydrogen projects, while in Europe, only 7. In order for Europe to reach its goals, it must move faster. But this much already seems certain: companies in the hydrogen sector are facing an exciting phase - we take a closer look at three stocks.

Powerful rebound potential - dynaCERT, Manuka Resources, Steinhoff
The default of the world's largest economy seems to have been averted. In the dispute over raising the debt ceiling in the US, Democrats and Republicans reached a compromise; only Congress still has to agree in the middle of the week. This is an advantage for the world's stock markets. The DAX briefly regained the 16,000-point mark. Several small-cap companies were also able to start a countermovement.

FREYR Battery, dynaCERT, BYD - Speed beats engineering and bureaucracy
The hunt is on for high-performance powertrains! Industry-experienced Canadian hydrogen technology company dynaCERT shines with a new collaboration with Cipher Neutron. Together they are creating an electrolyzer cell that will produce 28 times more hydrogen gas than conventional cells. FREYR Battery is also making progress with its battery gigafactories, but soon on the other side of the Atlantic due to tax advantages, as the domestic government in Norway seems too slow. Progress could be faster at Volkswagen. What good is German engineering when rival BYD is not only selling cars at a breathtaking speed but also securing battery production in China for the Company's own growth? We provide an overview.

DAX on a record chase, and hydrogen is making a comeback! VW, Daimler Truck, First Hydrogen, Traton. Who can convince?
The EU wants to invest about EUR 25 billion in hydrogen over the next 10 years. To this end, the Commission has drafted the concept of a "Hydrogen Accelerator" to promote the use of renewable hydrogen. The "REPowerEU plan" launched for this purpose aims to produce 10 million tons of renewable hydrogen within the EU by 2030 and to import a further 10 million tons. It is hoped that this will provide an important building block for saving the climate. The private sector is also involved. We take a look at some of the key players.

Movement in the hydrogen sector: What are Nel ASA, ThyssenKrupp and dynaCERT doing?
There never seems to be a dull moment in the hydrogen sector. After the horror figures and the announced capital measure at Plug Power, Stellantis' investment in Symbio is a positive signal for the sector. French Symbio is focused on zero-emission hydrogen mobility and was previously owned by the Forvia Group and tyre manufacturer Michelin. Now Stellantis, the third largest car manufacturer in the world with brands like Peugeot, Opel and Fiat, has acquired a 33.3% stake. According to Stellantis, hydrogen fuel cells are necessary to achieve climate protection goals. dynaCERT also wants to contribute to this. Perhaps a big partner will soon join the Canadians? And what is the hydrogen pioneer Nel ASA doing with its partner General Motors? ThyssenKrupp is making its subsidiary look good for the hydrogen IPO.

Thanks to Macron: Special boom for fuel cells? Plug Power, First Hydrogen, Volkswagen
It is a bombshell announcement that is expected to be made by the French Cabinet in Paris this week. As reported by Handelsblatt, in the future, emissions generated during the production of electric vehicles will be taken into account when promoting these vehicles. Until now, France, similar to Germany, has provided incentives for each electric vehicle priced below EUR 47,000. With the new law, Chinese manufacturers could be left out. We look at what this means and why hydrogen could be heading towards a special boom.

Financial crisis - which financial crisis? Spring bull market ahead: Mercedes-Benz, Blackrock Silver, Nel ASA, Plug Power - Still getting in now?
The stock markets are jumping from one high to the next. If it even comes, the long-anticipated recession has already been mentally filed away. That is because the GFK consumer climate index has been rising for 8 months, and the ifo index is once again close to the 100 mark at 96.5, which is considered an expansion signal among economists. Uncertainty in the financial sector could not be greater due to overnight takeovers. But after 8 consecutive US interest rate hikes, some market participants now believe the hawkish period is over. Since the ECB has been reluctant to get into the inflation fight, only 5 rate hikes have been registered here. Gold, silver, and even lithium are sensing the arrival of spring once again. We will now focus on three interesting stocks.
