Almonty Industries, PowerCell Sweden, Nordex – It is all happening in quick succession
The FED's interest rate cut and announcements of further easing of monetary policy are giving the indices additional momentum. The German-leading index DAX, the Dow Jones, and the S&P 500 continue to jump from high to high. In contrast, companies in the hydrogen fuel cell sector are more than 90% away from their historical record highs. However, several companies are currently forming a sustainable bottom that could lead to a sharp rebound.

Barrick Gold, Desert Gold, Commerzbank – Falling interest rates drive the price of gold
Recently, the price of gold reached record highs as interest rates continue to fall worldwide. This economic trend reflects deeper uncertainties and adjustments in global fiscal policy. A record high in gold often indicates that investors seek refuge in supposedly safe investments in times of economic turmoil and rising inflation. At the same time, falling interest rates represent central banks' efforts to stimulate economic growth and encourage investment. This dynamic interaction between the gold price and interest rates raises many questions about the long-term economic prospects. Therefore, today, we are looking at two gold companies and will examine the interest-sensitive Commerzbank.

150% turnaround likely! TUI, Saturn Oil + Gas, Plug Power, Novo Nordisk, and Evotec in focus
With the FED's latest interest rate cut, the way is paved for higher prices. In addition to the main performers, investors are increasingly turning their attention to equities that have so far seen little appreciation. The key question here is when the fundamentals will ultimately improve. This could then ensure that the analysts' bias finally turns and positive assessments are possible again. TUI, Evotec, and Plug Power are currently at very interesting points, while Saturn Oil & Gas is delivering results consistently and is now being recognized by institutional investors. Where are the opportunities for investors?

Boom in gold and travel: Barrick Gold CEO warns! TUI focuses on luxury! Globex Mining share with catch-up potential!
The gold price is receiving new momentum due to falling interest rates in the US. The takeover merry-go-round is also turning, but the Barrick Gold CEO is warning. Investors should keep an eye on developments in 2010. The Globex Mining share has a lot of catch-up potential. The business of the mining incubator is de-risked and around half of the projects are in the precious metals sector. Meanwhile, business is booming at TUI. Among other things, the Company plans to grow more strongly in the luxury segment. Nevertheless, investors and analysts do not seem convinced by the stock. Is this justified?

Environmental funding is back, now 100% with e-mobility stocks! VW, Mercedes, Prismo Metals, BYD and NIO
E-mobility has become a political issue in Europe because, despite the punitive tariffs imposed, thousands of new vehicles reach the ports of Rotterdam, Antwerp, and Hamburg every week. Prices are up to 30% lower than comparable EU models. Due to the current sales crisis, the German Federal Minister for Economic Affairs visited the crisis-ridden VW Group. There, he assured that he wanted to help and promised new funding for electric vehicles. However, it is not that simple because subsidies require the approval of the EU. This week, Habeck has been invited to the crisis summit of the automotive industry. This could represent the turning point for the struggling automotive industry. Valuations in the sector are at their lowest in years. Where are the opportunities for investors?

Palantir, Almonty Industries, Intel: The role of specialty metals and AI in the next generation of tech
The technology industry is in a state of upheaval. While established giants like Intel are fighting for their market position, new players like Palantir are pushing to the fore with innovative AI solutions. At the same time, raw material producers like Almonty Industries are gaining in importance because their tungsten metal is the basis for the advancing digitalization and AI revolution. Almonty Industries has just reached a new milestone in preparation for the commissioning of the tungsten mine in South Korea. Meanwhile, Intel relies on its partnership with AWS and has turned down the German government. Palantir CEO Alex Karp is being deliberately belligerent. Which investment promises the best return?

FuelCell Energy, Globex Mining, K92 Mining – The latecomers are catching up
Once again, the price of gold has reached a new all-time high as the likelihood increases that the Federal Reserve will implement larger interest rate cuts this week. Experts anticipate a range of between 25 and 50 basis points. Although the base price is rushing from high to high, smaller gold producers and exploration companies are lagging in performance. However, if the uptrend continues, this gap should close quickly, as history has repeatedly shown.

Commerzbank, Prismo Metals, Volkswagen - Interest rate decision winners and losers
The European Central Bank has cut interest rates for the second time this year, and the US will likely follow suit. This means pressure for banks but a positive outlook for precious metals. However, this could be a huge opportunity for the beleaguered automotive industry: Cheaper financing for consumers makes car loans more attractive and leads to rising sales figures. Lower interest rates could rev up the car manufacturers' engines and get the industry back on track. We will therefore take a closer look at Commerzbank, a precious metals and copper company, and finally, Volkswagen.

E-mobility, copper boom, and chemical crisis: Rheinmetall, Prismo Metals, and BASF showcase industry trends
Rheinmetall's share price has risen by 438.95% since the start of the Ukraine conflict. Now, the Company is looking far beyond the defense industry. From electric coolant pumps for hybrid vehicles to hydrogen recirculation blowers for fuel cells, Rheinmetall is positioning itself as a pioneer in key technologies for sustainable mobility. This demand is significantly impacting the need for copper. Here, Prismo Metals is positioning itself as a strategically ideal partner with projects in Mexico and the US. While BASF seeks to secure its competitiveness with these measures, this also raises questions about the future of the chemical industry in Europe and the impact of strict climate regulations on global corporations.

Caution: The next commodity rally boosts Globex but brings higher costs for VW, BMW, and BYD!
The price of copper exceeded the USD 9,000 mark again in September, and future prices remain stable above the USD 9,400 mark. This makes it clear to high-tech manufacturers and producers of alternative energies that the desired electrification will cause significantly higher costs than anticipated. Despite the global economic stagnation, commodity prices remain high. This is mainly due to the general increase in operating costs in mining operations. Energy, material, and personnel costs have seen the most significant increases in over 30 years since 2020. Major consumers of industrial metals, in particular, are now having to dig deeper into their pockets. For some, this is feasible, but for mass producers such as Volkswagen or BYD, this means increased pressure on margins. Where are the opportunities for investors?
