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?

Defense Metals, Thyssenkrupp, Rheinmetall - New problems with critical raw materials
Many people are currently suffering from high energy costs, which are also affecting companies. Some of their products are becoming significantly more expensive as a result. Added to this is the smoldering trade conflict between the USA and China. Most recently, Nvidia was no longer allowed to export two of its chips to China. China and Russia are rich in raw materials and, in some cases, have a monopoly. There are already many critical metals whose demand can currently only be met by China. The most important of these are rare earths, over 90% of which are processed in China. The EU and the US are trying to become more independent but are encountering new problems. The critical metals industry urgently needs new skilled workers. In many companies, experienced engineers have long since reached retirement age. There is an acute need for action here.

Barrick Gold, Barsele Minerals, Nordex - This will now be important
The strong US dollar, rising US yields and increasing fears of further major interest rate hikes are weighing on the precious metals markets. In this context, the precious yellow metal is facing an important test. Thus, the USD 1,680.59 per troy ounce gold mark is a prominent support level. If the low for the year is broken, there is a threat of a further drop to the region around USD 1,620 per ounce. In the long term, this level should serve as an entry level because containment of inflation through further interest rate steps can hardly be assumed in the current situation. This results in timely anticyclical entry opportunities in selected producers and exploration companies.

1.5 trillion Dollar crisis or special boom? K+S, Globex Mining, JinkoSolar
Jochen Stanzl of trading house CMC Markets warned at the beginning of the week of a "Lehman Moment" in the energy sector. In Wednesday's Handelsblatt, this scenario was explained in detail. According to the Norwegian energy company Equinor, the total volume of all margins on the European electricity and gas market amounts to USD 1.5 trillion. Margins are security deposits in futures transactions. In this article, we outline the explosive power this offers, which supposedly safe sectors could suffer and where the blissful islands are.

SGL Carbon, Viva Gold, Formycon - Strong news in the bear market
The stock markets are reeling, and uncertainties and tensions have increased in recent days. Thus, not only did the stock market corrected, but the DAX sank again significantly below the 13,000 mark due to the stop of gas deliveries via Nord Stream 1, and other asset classes such as precious metals, cryptocurrencies and even oil dropped significantly. Nevertheless, even in the bear market, there are companies that can shine with excellent reports and should be among the winners in a possible upward movement.
