Glencore, Almonty Industries, Albemarle - Commodities on the verge of a rebound
The first quarter of the stock market year 2024 is already history, and despite many disruptive factors, it has turned out better than many expected. Germany's leading index, the DAX, achieved growth of almost 11% and reached a new all-time high. The precious metal gold also reached the highest level in its history at USD 2,233 per ounce at the end of the quarter. In contrast, important commodities needed for the climate and energy transition are lagging. After months of bottoming out, copper, tungsten and lithium offer attractive entry opportunities at the current levels.

Attention: Uranium despite the energy transition! Does this fit together? Plug Power, Nel ASA, Kraken Energy and Renk Group in focus
It feels like a paradox. The EU aims to be largely climate-neutral by 2050. The main focus is on mobility, heat and energy generation. As a core country of the EU, Germany is taking the political lead in the necessary measures. While France, Poland, Finland and the Czech Republic are actively expanding nuclear energy, this form of energy is virtually taboo in many other countries. Germany has been able to increase its renewable energy sources to over 50% with billions in subsidies at the expense of the taxpayer and the price of energy. Yet, Berlin still has to buy cheap electricity from abroad and also use coal and gas to stabilize the grid. It all sounds kind of crazy, but it gets really interesting when the wind isn't blowing and the sun is only to be found behind the clouds. Which shares should be considered in this mixed situation?

Shares in Focus: TUI, Rheinmetall, and Defense Metals with good reasons for price increases
The TUI share was one of the top performers on the German stock market yesterday. The EUR 7 mark was exceeded, making things exciting on the chart. Analysts expect significantly higher prices for the tourism group. Rheinmetall shares are among the top performers of the year. An end to the price increase is not in sight. The armaments group has announced a new order worth billions. The manufacture of armaments, aircraft, cruise ships and numerous other high-tech products would not be possible without rare earths. However, most of these come from China and Russia. This makes the Defense Metals share interesting. The Company is making great strides with its rare earths project in Canada. The share should also benefit from this progress.

Watch out: DAX record chase! Automotive stocks in the fast lane: Mercedes-Benz, Globex Mining, VW and Tesla
The DAX 40 index is chasing from one high to the next, surpassing the 18,400 mark yesterday. In addition to artificial intelligence, it is primarily high-tech and defense stocks that are moving the market. The automotive stocks are still in the doldrums, as an expected decline in GDP also means smaller household budgets. Nothing is worse for the industry than the postponement of new car purchases until next year. The stockpiles are getting bigger, and dealers are plunging into desperate discount battles. However, the market is changing noticeably. Currently, there are clear buying candidates; we analyze the current situation.

RWE, Almonty Industries, Nel ASA - Emission-free energy as a booster for the portfolio?
The search for an emission-free energy future is one of the most urgent undertakings of our time. In the face of increasing climate challenges and the growing need to reduce global carbon emissions drastically, innovative energy solutions are becoming the focus of scientific and public attention. At the heart of this energy revolution lie three key technologies: Fusion reactors, renewables and hydrogen. These three fields of technology form the cornerstones of an emission-free energy future. They promise not only a sustainable energy supply but also the transformation of our energy systems towards greater efficiency, security and climate compatibility.

Nvidia, Manuka Resources, Aurora Cannabis - All the rage
The stock markets continue to boom. The DAX was able to climb above the psychologically important 18,000-point mark, at least in the short term, while other asset classes, such as gold and Bitcoin, also reached new highs. By contrast, different sectors, such as hydrogen and cannabis, have continued to plummet in recent weeks. The latter, in particular, has received an upward boost from the US government's statements, which could herald a trend reversal.

Volkswagen, Defense Metals, BYD, Rheinmetall - China's weapon in the tech race
In the shadow of global power rivalries, rare earths play a crucial role, not only for the defense industry, but also for the booming electric vehicle market and the production of catalytic converters in the automotive industry. These metals are the invisible backbone powering high-tech devices and are of strategic importance for the global economy and security. China's dominance in extracting and processing such resources - as illustrated by Deng Xiaoping's statement: "The Middle East has oil. China has rare earths." - sheds light on potential geopolitical tensions and highlights the importance of supply chain diversification and resilience.

HelloFresh, Royal Helium, Evotec - Rebounds in sight
Despite all the various challenges in today's world, such as geopolitical tensions or inflation, the stock market indices have managed to climb upwards. Investors are faced with a crucial question: Where is the hidden value in a market that has already broken many records?
