Where gold shines brightest: Barrick Gold, Desert Gold, Uniper
Secretly and quietly, gold has stalked towards the USD 1,800 mark. The reasons are the weaker dollar in combination with a possible end of the interest rate turnaround and the growing uncertainty: Even if current economic data, such as the recently published US labor market report, give hope, the risks are growing in the long term. We look at two exciting gold stocks and use the example of Uniper to explain why gold could soon be booming.

Investment stories that inspire: Freyr Battery, Manuka Resources, BASF
In order to be successful with stocks in the current market situation, a thorough analysis of companies and their business models is required. Blanket instructions for action do not lead to success. Investment strategies such as the value approach and the focus on unconditional growth are not guaranteed to lead to success. What matters now are convincing investment stories! We take a look at three stocks that are currently in focus and check their future.

Comeback stocks: Nel, Aurora Cannabis, Barrick Gold, Tocvan Ventures
Gold, cannabis and hydrogen could be among the top trends of the coming year - also on the stock market. Due to full order books, Nel could be poised for a comeback in 2023. At least sales are already secured until mid-2024. Now, all that is left is to cut the loss to reach analysts' price targets. Aurora Cannabis has largely completed its turnaround and is also hoping for legalization in Europe and the US. Driven by a strong gold price, mining stocks have already jumped. Now exploration companies should follow. Tocvan Ventures is one of them. And with the gold explorer, investors can look forward to a regular news flow in the coming year. Are the three candidates comeback stocks in 2023?

BYD, Auxico Resources, Hensoldt, Rheinmetall - Prepared for the future
Russia's invasion of Ukraine at the end of February this year changed everything. While global stock markets fell into a state of shock, shares in defense companies boomed. With the arms buildup in the Western world, the future looks bright for companies that were still viewed critically before the war of aggression. However, in order to produce enough tanks, aircraft and other war equipment, the industry needs a variety of critical metals for which demand already exceeds supply.

Profit now from the energy transition - Rock Tech Lithium, Power Nickel, Shell
In the past, the internal combustion engine was at the center of the automotive industry, but this is now to change as quickly as possible in order to achieve the specified climate targets. Electrification is the magic word. However, there are high hurdles to overcome in implementing this. For example, it is still not certain whether the battery metals required for this, such as lithium, cobalt, copper and nickel, are available in sufficient quantities. Demand for the critical metals already exceeds supply. The beneficiaries are undoubtedly the producers of the scarce goods.

What to buy cheap? BYD and Uniper, BASF and Manuka Resources are on the rise
Even if BYD delivers close to 100,000 vehicles to Sixt in the next few years, this is not a guarantee for rising share prices. After all, major shareholder Warren Buffet is divesting his Chinese hobby horse. Does he know more? Is it a portfolio decision, or does he want to preemptively counter possible geopolitical surprises related to Taiwan? We do not know. The fact remains: Buffet has a lot of followers, and that is forcing the BYD price further and further down. Meanwhile, BASF reports good numbers and pushes further north with a seasonally firm DAX - who would have thought? We dive a little deeper.

Is this patent causing a rare earths quake? Nordex, Defense Metals, BYD
Wind power is a crucial component of the energy transition. Rare earths are used to increase the efficiency of wind turbines and electric motors. Dysprosium and terbium, in particular, are in demand. But although rare earths are anything but rare, they are only found in a few regions worldwide. Scientists at Darmstadt Technical University have now developed processes to use rare earths more efficiently. We explain the technology and shed light on three stocks related to rare earths.

Almonty Industries, ThyssenKrupp, Varta - Earning from growing tungsten demand
In 2021, 79,000 metric tons of tungsten were mined worldwide from existing mines. In 2015, production was still 89,400 tons. One might think that demand has declined and production has been cut back, but the opposite is true. According to the British Geological Survey report, demand will increase between 3% and 7% per year and will soon exceed available supply. But now, demand could increase significantly in the short term because US Department of Energy DOE researchers have found a way to charge electric cars in 15 minutes. This involves using a molybdenum tungsten niobate alloy as the cathode material instead of graphite. So we take a look at three companies around tungsten.

Rheinmetall, Saturn Oil + Gas, Amazon - These shares are growing in the face of crises
Tech groups like Amazon are laying off 10,000 employees to get back on track. Shareholders will be happy, and Amazon's Alexa department employees should quickly sign up with Indeed. The department is posting the biggest losses in 2022. Rheinmetall AG is off to a good start through the crisis. Thanks to the "ring swap" deal, the Düsseldorf-based company is now supplying the Greeks with fresh tanks. In turn, the Greeks give their Soviet-designed tanks to Ukraine's soldiers. Rheinmetall's share price has risen by 127.14% since the beginning of the year. Also among the crisis winners is Saturn Oil & Gas. With its numerous active oil drilling projects, investors have a broadly diversified portfolio at their disposal.

BYD, Globex Mining, Nordex - When does it really start?
Climate change is one of the greatest challenges of our time. With tighter targets for climate neutrality and billions in subsidies, politicians are stepping on the gas. Renewable energies are the only way to achieve a CO2-neutral world. Despite the long-term rosy prospects, companies in the peace energy sector have corrected sharply in recent months, with even market leaders posting losses of over 50% on the stock market. This represents a new opportunity to participate in the energy transition over the long term.
