Barrick Gold, Alerio Gold, Newmont - Can these stocks defy the interest rate scare?
What is next for gold? Since the beginning of November, gold prices have risen rapidly by over USD 300. Inflation figures in the US fell significantly during these months. Last week, therefore, all eyes were again on the inflation data in the US. Inflation fell in January, but not as much as experts had expected. Interest rate fears are already spreading again, pushing the indices down. If interest rates continue to rise, this will draw investors away from the gold market. However, state banks continue to buy gold. In January, Turkey purchased 68 tons of gold. We take a closer look at three gold companies.

Banks bet 5,000 tons of gold - explosive power? Deutsche Bank, Alerio Gold, Commerzbank

E-mobility 2023: The Tesla hunters are coming! BYD, Lucid Motors, Tocvan Ventures. Will the Varta share now also fly?
It Is hard to believe! The Tesla share is once again making a name for itself. Analysts went into the presentation of the annual figures with cautious expectations because there were many negative rumors surrounding Elon Musk's electronics company: Fewer sales? Cars on stockpile? Again, it came as no one had expected it. Elon Musk delivered and simultaneously mocked all the shorties who wanted to push his stock below USD 100 at the turn of the year. This gambit went badly wrong because Tesla was able to deliver even better figures than expected, and there was no stopping the share. With plus 70% in only 4 weeks, the Tesla share belongs to the shooting stars since the turn of the year - the short sellers must have lost their desire completely. But the variety of interesting shares is significant. Where are the opportunities for e-investors lurking?

Mega biotech rally 2023! Defence Therapeutics, Bayer, BioNTech, Morphosys - Where to put the money?
Who would have thought it? Since the beginning of the year, the stock markets have been jubilant despite difficult predictions about the economic trend in 2023. High inflation and rising interest rates are not a good breeding ground for the popular biotech stocks because they have to constantly refinance their research expenses. As the risk fee is readjusted as costs rise, investors demand higher premiums for providing money. However, some biotech stocks have taken off since the beginning of the year despite adverse conditions. What is their secret?

Commodity stocks pick up, Saturn Oil + Gas, RWE, BASF - Forward-looking with high returns
Central and Northern Europe are firmly enveloped in wintry temperatures. BASF AG's balance sheet is just as frosty as the current weather because its subsidiary Wintershall Dea is no longer doing business with Russia. The consequence for BASF is a minus of EUR 1.4 billion. Business is entirely different for RWE, with the figures exceeding analyst expectations. Thanks to the commodity trading division, the Company is doing exceptionally well, so DZ Bank has set RWE at "Buy" with a fair value of EUR 53 per share. Valuable raw materials such as oil and gas are extracted by the Canadian company of the same name, Saturn Oil & Gas. Thanks to a new takeover, their production potential has increased by a whopping 140%.

Vonovia, Alpina Holdings, Commerzbank - Has the real estate market bottomed out?
The past few years have been an El Dorado for the real estate sector. But since interest rates started rising, dark clouds have gathered over the real estate market. In addition, the sharp rise in construction costs and inflation are pulling money out of the pockets of interested real estate buyers and making them reluctant to make purchasing decisions. According to a study by EY Real Estate, the real estate investment market slumped by 40% in 2022. In 2023, transaction volumes could fall further. We take a look at three companies around the real estate sector and highlight the opportunities and risks.
