Morphosys, Power Nickel, Nvidia - A pre-Christmas gift
The stock market year 2023 brought with it a lot of volatility and no let-up in both geopolitical and fiscal policy upheavals.

On Monday, shareholders of the biotech company Morphosys also experienced a pre-Christmas gift, with an impressive gain of 30% at the end of the trading day.

Uranium, lithium or gold? The climate conference tells us which way to go! BYD, Globex Mining, VW and Mercedes!
At the international climate conference in Dubai, several Arab countries sharply criticized and ultimately rejected the global move away from fossil fuels. The move by Western countries is an "aggressive attack", said Kuwaiti Oil Minister Saad Hamad Nasser al-Barrak yesterday, Tuesday. "I am astonished by this extraordinary insistence on depriving people and many countries of their basic source of energy. This approach is racist and colonialist," al-Barrak continued. This means that there will be no decision on a global phase-out of oil and gas with the OPEC states. Therefore, the current World Climate Conference is likely to be inconclusive or conclude with unilateral declarations from the EU. However, there is much to suggest that commodities that positively impact the global climate will remain on the import list of industrialized countries. Which shares should be considered in this mixed situation?

Gold and Silver in 2024 - Breakout or Crash? Blackrock Silver, TUI and Lufthansa should show their colors now!
A new record high for the DAX at 16,782 - who would have thought it? The stock market is anything but boring at the moment. Gold started the week at a new all-time high of USD 2,147 in Asian trading, then sold off and even fell below the USD 2,000 mark again over the course of the week. Although the central banks are currently absorbing 30% of production, the price is unable to hold steady at the top. This is likely due to the lower-than-expected inflation at the beginning of the last quarter of the year. All in all, lower inflation also means lower interest rates. This is actually a bullish signal for gold and silver, but things often turn out differently than expected. On the consumption side, the tourism market should also be considered due to higher household budgets. Is this where the top yields for the coming year are hiding?

Snow chaos and climate madness, who is playing in the Premier League of the energy transition? Nel ASA, Power Nickel and Plug Power under the microscope
Snow chaos and new record highs. While the DAX 40 demonstrates itself as the world's best blue-chip index, the German economy is currently navigating downward. It is not the earnings outlook that is presently driving share prices but the hope of lower interest rates. Meanwhile, the endless climate debates in Dubai continue. Among realists, however, there must be fears that the local oil lobby will not let a German know-it-all put a stop to the lavish margins with fossil fuels. There will, at least, be a friendly Arab nod to the 2050 climate goals and exclusive indulgence for the high-ranking German delegation. Whether this justifies federal expenditure of more than EUR 50 million is something we will leave uncommented. More important is a look at the top titles of the upcoming energy transition - where is the next 100 percenter lurking?

Siemens Energy, Defense Metals, Rheinmetall - Rare earths as a risk factor
The scarcity of and access to rare earths has become a major global concern. China plays a decisive role in the production of rare earths, as the country mines 60% of all rare earths worldwide and processes 85% of them. After the US banned the export of AI chips, China considered banning the export of rare earth metals. These trade blockades from both sides are causing tensions in international trade relations and concerns about supply bottlenecks. Rare earths play an important role in wind power, armaments, medicine, electromobility and the electronics industry. As an investor, one should be aware of these risks.

Blackrock Silver, BYD, Infineon - Silver: The new gold of the technology sector?
There is currently an attractive opportunity for investment in silver as it plays a key role in the growing e-mobility sector and chip manufacturing. The increasing production of electric vehicles is driving the demand for silver. Simultaneously, silver is becoming increasingly important due to its use in highly conductive pastes for the progressively sophisticated chip manufacturing industry. These developments could lead to a sustained increase in demand and make silver a potentially lucrative investment. Precious metal prices have already risen sharply.

More than 30% with Plug Power, Siemens Energy, and Globex Mining! What is next?
Is the Plug Power share about to triple? Despite being one of the disappointments of 2023 along with Siemens Energy, both shares have risen in recent days. And analysts see further upside potential. The price target for the hydrogen specialist, in particular, is surprising. On the other hand, Globex Mining is performing well operationally throughout 2023. The shares of the mining incubator from North America have gained over 30% in value this year, outperforming commodity giants such as Barrick Gold. The Canadians' recent transaction shows that the business model has potential and is appealing to investors.
