More and more investors are betting on companies that are leaving traditional therapeutic paths to rethink cancer, chronic inflammation, or nutritional issues. While some corporations struggle with their balance sheets due to mountains of debt and patent expirations, others are quietly developing technologies that crack the metabolic code of diseases. Whether anti-aging tests from saliva samples, mRNA-based cancer cocktails, or active ingredients that overcome the blood-brain barrier – the stock market rewards those who combine research success with strategic risk-taking. But which companies have what it takes to develop the blockbusters of tomorrow? Let's take a closer look at three companies.

In the current economic situation, investors are presented with promising opportunities in companies that stand out due to their innovative strength and skilful crisis management. Particularly attractive are companies that invest countercyclically in research and development and thus emerge from crises stronger than before. Altech Advanced Materials, with its innovative battery technology, shows how companies can tap into new market opportunities through research and development. McDonald's, on the other hand, is struggling with a food safety issue that requires rapid crisis management to restore consumer confidence. Volkswagen has to deal with the consequences of a personnel scandal in its most important foreign market, China. We take a look at the details.

BYD, Altech Advanced Materials, Xiaomi - Battle for the gold of the energy transition

  • Batteries
  • Electromobility
  • Innovations

The energy transition is underway, and demand for electric vehicles is increasing, albeit more slowly than expected. Lithium has so far been fundamental to the electrification of transportation. To minimize dependence on China, which controls a large part of the mining and processing of the rare metal, the European Union is turning to Serbia, where considerable deposits for battery production lie dormant. However, in addition to lithium-ion batteries, there are alternatives "Made in Germany" that could set the future standard.

Transformation in full swing: Altech, Volkswagen, and Bayer focus on new technologies and markets

  • Batteries
  • Electromobility

  • Innovations

Shortly after the grandiose Olympic opening ceremony, Paris showed us what it means to sit in the dark. One day after the opening ceremony, the inhabitants of the Seine were hit by a power outage. Speculation as to the cause ranges from a cyber attack to sabotage, similar to the recent arson attacks on the French rail network. But one thing is certain, it shows how fragile the power supply currently is. This is reason enough for Altech Advanced Materials to press ahead with the development of its stationary solid-state battery. A type of local battery power plant ensures a stable power supply, even with fluctuations in the grid due to wind and solar energy. The German company has another profitable development up its sleeve for the EV market. Volkswagen continues to focus on its electric vehicles and can look forward to increased sales in China. Nevertheless, the Wolfsburg-based company must make considerable savings to remain profitable. The results of the first half of the year provide deep insights. Additionally, for 27 million women in the US, ones battery can be figuratively "empty" at times. Fatigue, hot flashes, and nervousness are classic symptoms of menopause. 27 million is the market size of menopausal women that Bayer AG now aims to capture with a very special medication...

  • Innovations

Alarm at Plug Power. After the price jump in May, the share has gone into reverse again and lost 10% of its value in just a few days. Financing worth billions for the struggling hydrogen pioneer is uncertain, bringing the Company's potential insolvency back into the focus of investors. German hydrogen hopeful Thyssenkrupp Nucera received positive analyst comments. Could the share perhaps even double in value? And what is Altech Advanced Materials doing? The shares of the German battery hopeful have bottomed out and may offer an entry opportunity. The market potential for Altech is huge.

Bloom Energy, Altech Advanced Materials, JinkoSolar - Renewables are booming again

The hype that began at the start of the decade was followed by disillusionment and drastic share price losses. Over the past three years, renewable energy companies such as Plug Power, Nel ASA & Co. have lost disproportionately to the broader market. For some months now, however, many share prices have been showing signs of bottoming out, which could herald the next upward movement. There is no question that hydrogen, photovoltaics, and wind energy technologies will be further expanded in the future.

Globex Mining, Samsung Electronics, BYD: Commodity rally and innovations from Asia

  • Mining

  • Gold
  • Electromobility
  • Innovations

Increasing demand for generative AI, consumer electronics, and innovations in the automotive industry are significantly boosting demand for raw materials. These are golden times for explorers like Globex Mining. The Canadian company has such a broad-based commodities portfolio that it can be seen as a minerals land bank. For investors, this means reduced risk thanks to high diversification. Samsung Electronics is currently facing several challenges. Not only have they been overtaken by NVIDIA in chip production, but the workforce is also becoming restless. In South Korea, this would be the very first strike in the Company's history. Although the brand value is highly regarded globally, things seem to be quite off-kilter in Suwon. Innovations are produced in Asia. Car manufacturers such as BYD, Geely and Toyota are focusing on the next evolutionary stage in the development of electromobility. The EU, on the other hand, appears helpless and is trying to undermine competition with punitive tariffs. Will they succeed?
