Covestro, Desert Gold Ventures, Barrick Gold - Waiting for the next push
Although crash prophets have been raising their fingers for months and conjuring up a crash in the largest stock indices, such as the Dow Jones, Nasdaq and DAX, these continue to rush from high to high. On the other hand, precious metals such as gold and silver, which are suitable for crises and as inflation protection, are correcting. At the same time, the general conditions continue to improve, which should lead to sustainably rising prices in the long term.

Commerzbank, Viva Gold, Plug Power - What is next for the markets?
While the FED will probably take a break after its last interest rate hike to 5.5%, the ECB could be forced to turn the interest rate screw further, as inflation is only slowly declining. From May to June, the inflation rate in Germany climbed to 6.4%, only to fall back to 6.2% in July. The banking crisis seems to have been overcome after the turbulence between early February and mid-March. An end to the interest rate hike could have a positive effect on the gold price. Another catalyst is the meeting of the BRICS countries on August 22-24, which could decide on a new gold-backed currency. For growth companies, higher interest rates are poison as borrowed money is now much more expensive. We have selected one company from each segment.

E-mobility 2.0 - Better batteries, longer ranges: BYD, Nikola, Manuka Resources, and Varta in the spotlight!
The fact that the e-mobility wave will continue in the medium term depends greatly on the performance components and public subsidies. Government subsidies for buying a Stromer or hydrogen-powered vehicle are falling. In order to encourage rapid uptake, there are subsidies from the government and manufacturers, known as the environmental bonus. But the total budget for the federal support for the bonus is limited. In 2023, only EUR 2.1 billion was initially planned, but Economics Minister Habeck has since announced an increase to EUR 2.5 billion. In 2024, only EUR 1.3 billion is currently planned, which is a cut of 50%. So the race against time has begun. Which shares are particularly interesting now?

Greentech rally restarts again! Siemens Energy, Defense Metals, SMA and JinkoSolar - critical metals are in demand
Greentech stocks have been a hot topic since the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) by the Joe Biden Administration. That is because, besides the EU, the US now also wants to step on the gas pedal significantly. It is all about investing in the future of climate protection. This primarily involves technologies for alternative energy generation, such as solar or wind power plants. Under the IRA, US investments in the future will be subject to a tax bonus. For industry, the key point remains the availability of strategically important metals, as they are as rare as they are highly sought after. Where are the opportunities for investors?

Viva Gold Corp., Novo Nordisk, Vonovia - Gold Rush in Nevada - Dampened mood in Bochum
Viva Gold Corporation is reporting promising progress at its Tonopah Gold Project. Drilling to date proves that the Company can expand new, shallow, high-grade zones of gold mineralization in the Nevada area. For those searching for affordable housing in Germany, affordable living space has become the new gold in recent years. In light of the latest quarterly results, Group CEO Rolf Buch says Vonovia should be charging EUR 20 rent per sqm. Affordable housing is thin on the ground in Germany. Thin is the magic word for the fat plus of the Novo Nordisk share. Since the weight loss injection Ozempic has been on the market, the share price of the Danish pharmaceutical company has been rising inexorably.

Gold rush mood at Manuka Resources and Rock Tech Lithium, and Bayer writes billion-dollar losses
Australian gold and silver explorer Manuka Resources has successfully shipped its third gold shipment to Australasia's leading independent precious metals assayer, ABC Refinery. Shares in Manuka Resources rose nearly 8% following the news. In addition, the Company now plans regular weekly shipments as it processes various stockpiles from its Mt Boppy gold project. Bayer AG is reporting losses of billions of dollars due to write-downs in its Monsanto agriculture division, again fueling breakup rumors. The group is struggling with significant declines in its glyphosate-based weedkiller business, which is weighing heavily on its finances. A promising newcomer on the commodities horizon is emerging right in Germany's Brandenburg region. There, Rock Tech Lithium is working to develop battery-grade lithium hydroxide monohydrate by building and operating lithium hydroxide production facilities.

Caution with Nikola share! Are Vonovia and Desert Gold bargains?
Hype stock or bargain? The Nikola share is undoubtedly one of the stock market stars of recent months. Within two months, the share has multiplied to EUR 3. Now, it has crashed to EUR 2. Is the hype over? Caution is advised. The Company is running out of capital, and the boss is jumping ship. In contrast, shares such as Desert Gold and Vonovia are at rock bottom. However, the gold explorer is a real bargain. Could the stock rise now? Analysts also see significant upside potential for Vonovia. Despite this, the DAX-listed group has had to make massive write-downs on its real estate portfolio. Where is the rise worthwhile now?

Infineon, Globex Mining, PayPal - Where is it worth getting in after the setback?
The world of finance is characterized by constant fluctuations and changes. This dynamic, which is a source of uncertainty for some investors, can also provide opportunities to profit for well-informed shareholders. One such approach to profiting from the ups and downs of the financial markets is the art of "Buy the Dip" - taking advantage of setbacks or downturns in stock prices to invest cheaply in promising companies. This approach requires a solid understanding of market behavior and the ability to distinguish between temporary price corrections and long-term value potential. We have selected three candidates where an entry could be worthwhile.
