Is Elon Musk making a move on Standard Lithium? News from Newmont and Tocvan Ventures
The sentiment of investors in lithium and gold stocks could hardly be more different at the moment. Shares such as Standard Lithium and Livent are recovering significantly from their interim phase of weakness. The entire sector is benefiting from positive comments by Tesla founder Elon Musk. There is also speculation that the wealthiest man in the world could take a stake in Standard Lithium. It would make perfect sense for Tesla. In contrast, all hope seems to be fading in the gold sector. Heavyweights like Barrick Gold and Newmont are trading near 52-week lows. The latest setback was Newmont's numbers. However, the dividend yield is now tempting, and there are also positives from the gold sector. Canadian explorer Tocvan Ventures reported convincing drill results.

BYD, Almonty Industries, BASF - Positive analyst opinions
The first half of the current stock market year brought heavy losses due to political and economic uncertainties. For the leading American index, the S&P 500, this led to the most significant price correction since the 1970s. In Germany, the DAX 40 lost around 20% of its value. Investors are now eagerly awaiting the second quarter results. In addition to Deutsche Bank, carmaker Mercedes-Benz also posted surprisingly good results. The chemical company BASF is also more confident despite the existing gas crisis.

Buy or sell? Nel, Zalando, Aspermont under analyst review
After the heavy losses of the past months, a countermovement seems to be starting at the moment. Whether this will turn into a real summer rally remains to be seen. Buy or sell is the question. Analysts see a price potential of over 50% for Nel ASA. Even though competition from China and India is increasing. Aspermont also appears attractive at the current price level. The latest quarterly figures were positive, and the positioning of the small-cap in the booming commodities sector is promising. At Zalando, analysts react to the profit warning, and the price targets are significantly reduced. Nevertheless, some advise buying the online fashion retailer, but not everyone.

Unheeded crisis signals! What is next: BioNTech, Lufthansa, Triumph Gold
There are always comeback stocks on the stock market. The airports are full of travellers who are being drawn to distant countries. So the tourism industry, and airlines too, could almost strap themselves in for a comeback. If only it weren't for the new BA.5 virus variant, which has infected large parts of the population in Portugal within a very short time. It seems investors have to choose between travel stocks and pandemic stocks when looking for comeback stocks - or is there a laughing third party?

Shares of Nel ASA, BP, BASF and Saturn Oil + Gas: Goldman bullish on oil price
Good news for oil producers such as BP, ExxonMobil and Saturn Oil & Gas: Goldman Sachs has raised its oil price forecasts and expects prices to remain high. The price target for Brent crude was raised from USD 125 to USD 140 per barrel. The reasons given for this are unresolved structural bottlenecks. The oil giant ExxonMobil shot up to a new all-time high in the wake of the news. For Saturn Oil & Gas, a takeover has come at the right time. The Canadian producer wants to double its production again. Nel is also likely to benefit, as the high prices for fossil energies are making it easier to switch to renewables. For BASF, however, the Goldman forecast is bad news, but analysts see considerable upside potential.

Rheinmetall and BYD with new partners and Triumph Gold facing long-term buy signal
The stock markets are nervous due to the continuing unresolved geopolitical problems. The mood fluctuates between optimism and pessimism, and a clear trend is not discernible. Apart from the Ukraine war, the predominant issue is how to contain the sharp rise in inflation without stifling economic growth. When considering the current statistics, further interest rate hikes are poison for the stock markets. In contrast, the traffic lights for precious metals have been fundamentally green for a long time, but the prices of gold and silver are trending south.

Shares: Plug Power and BYD with exclamation points! Patience is needed at Nevada Copper
Hydrogen or battery, which is better? This question is often asked. The answer is simple: both technologies will play an essential role in the energy and mobility revolution. While batteries seem to be gaining ground in the passenger car sector, hydrogen has numerous other potential applications, such as commercial vehicles and ships. Plug Power and BYD put exclamation points on incoming orders and vehicle sales. At the beginning of the value chain are commodity companies like Nevada Copper, which has now suffered a setback on its way to becoming a copper producer. However, the price slide could also represent an opportunity for investors.

Split fantasy: Amazon, Aspermont, Alibaba, Tencent - After the sell-off is before the rally!
In bull market movements, shares become more and more expensive. Private small investors simply cannot afford an Amazon share at USD 3,000 and stay away as investors. US technology stocks, therefore, often use a trick: The SPLIT! In the case of Amazon, the investor receives a further 19 shares booked into the securities account in addition to a share held. In purely arithmetical terms, this does not make the Company cheaper, but in purely visual terms, the value is 95% cheaper than before the split. In most cases, the share price rises again very quickly because smaller tranches can now be transacted on the stock exchange again. But it is not always like this. In this context, we are looking at other tech titles with more than 100% potential.
