German economy is in danger of crashing: E.ON, Globex Mining, Deutsche Bank and Commerzbank in focus
Germany's free-market decline continues vehemently. After using about 40% of imported gas for electricity in recent years, local utilities now lack real alternatives. Prices are rising dramatically, and gas, in particular, seems to know only one direction - up! The dependence on energy imports and the intended sanctioning is becoming a price driver for local utilities, electricity production and thus the entire economy. As yet, there is little evidence of the benefits of the said climate change; so far, only the cost increases are noticeable. Shareholders should be alert to which areas could soon be affected.

Barrick Gold, Desert Gold, MicroStrategy - Catch a falling knife!
The recently published inflation data from the US sent not only the stock markets into the basement. Even the oil price, which has been bullish of late, went down. Precious metals, as well as cryptocurrencies, suffered the most from the inflation shock. With the US Federal Reserve meeting next week and the expectation of a significant interest rate step, new lows for the year could be marked for these two assets in particular, and a further sell-off could occur. However, it seems unlikely that further major interest rate hikes will take place in the medium term, as this would tend to favor a hard landing of the global economy. Thus, with an anti-cyclical entry, the chances of long-term price gains increase.

Nordex, Rheinmetall, Barsele Minerals: Turnaround potential!
These three stocks have turnaround potential. Admittedly, investing is not easy in the current environment with inflation, rising interest rates and war in Ukraine. But challenging times offer great opportunities. Take Rheinmetall, for example: The stock has corrected by over 30%, yet the prospects are good and analysts also see a price potential of over 70%. Nordex has many problems of its own making, but here too, the industry environment is right, thanks to global investment packages for renewable energy. At Barsele Minerals, the gold price is a burden, but in the meantime, the market capitalization is well below the asset's value, and the recent capital increase was significantly oversubscribed.

Rheinmetall, Defense Metals, MP Materials - The trend persists
And once again, the recently started upward movement on the stock markets is abruptly ended by new inflation data from the US. Consumer prices rose by 8.3% last month, the core rate by 6.3%. The figures were thus once again higher than economists' estimates, making further interest rate hikes more likely. Higher interest rates are a further burden on the economy. In addition, high demand is causing prices for urgently needed raw materials to rise further.

Analysts are bullish on BYD, less bullish on Varta and news from Infinity Stone Ventures
In terms of sales figures, BYD has already overtaken industry star Tesla. But the share could not benefit from this due to the partial sales of major shareholder Berkshire Hathaway. After the price slide, it now seems to be regaining its footing. Analysts are bullish and see great opportunities for the Chinese e-car maker in foreign expansion, among other things. Experts see few opportunities at Varta at the moment, and the chart is battered. Most recently, an analyst reduced the price target to EUR 65. The newsflow currently offers little hope. Infinity Stone Ventures is an entirely different story. The specialist for critical raw materials in Canada benefits from the political environment and is expanding its lithium areas. More news can be expected in the fall.

TUI, Almonty Industries, Bayer - Rebound after the sell-off?
Since September 8, the DAX has gained over 700 points despite inflation, a halt in Russian gas supplies and fears of recession. Inflation was 7.9% in August. The ECB's interest rate hike seems to have reassured many investors. The question remains whether the indices will again move to new highs. The S&P has broken its downward trend channel on a daily basis. No uptrend has been formed yet, but as long as the last lows are not broken again, it will continue to go up according to the chart technique. We therefore take a look at three companies that were recently sold off strongly and see whether there could be a sustainable rebound.

Up and away! Lufthansa, TUI, Viva Gold, Aston Martin - Turnaround stocks take off!
The warlike activities in Ukraine now seem to be entering a critical phase. It appears that the resistance forces have been able to wrest important sections of land from the Russian aggressor. While we should not dream of a quick end to the war, a spark of hope remains. With inflation data remaining high, investors are predominantly looking for stability. Wildly fluctuating stock and crypto prices have become daily companions, and even real estate markets are no longer immune to corrections in the face of rising interest rates and skyrocketing construction costs. Thus, the focus is on stocks that have already endured a long period of suffering.

Back to basics: JinkoSolar, Alpha Copper, Varta
Without energy, everything is nothing. Every craft business, for example, in metal processing, depends on energy. The need in industry is much greater. But how can investors profit from the energy turnaround? Are the obvious stocks really the best choice? Or is it more promising to think very fundamentally? Here is an analysis between groundbreaking opportunities and solid basic investments.

Forget lithium! Now comes vanadium! Nordex, Manuka Resources, ThyssenKrupp
Since February 24 at the latest, a new era has also begun in Germany. While before that, it was still possible to avoid the energy turnaround somewhat, the war has changed everything. Fossil fuels are no longer just considered dirty, but also expensive. The energy turnaround that has been triggered is also shaking up the stock market. We present companies that could surprise positively and clarify how investors should best invest.

Fuel price explosion: 200% jump in profits for stocks - BP, Saturn Oil + Gas, Shell, BYD
Energy consumption in Europe is currently declining slightly, partly due to the new savings mentality, especially in Germany, but also to a weighty extent due to a slowdown in economic momentum. In their latest estimates, the German research institutes have also made clear reductions; expectations for 2022 are now only just in the black, and a recession could be on the cards next year. That would not be surprising, as the consumer has to bear inflation rates of an official 7-10%, which cannot be compensated for on the revenue side. The obvious winners so far are the big oil multinationals because they do not have to do anything but sell the oil they produce at a high price. Where are the opportunities for investors?
