Almonty Industries, Rheinmetall, BYD – Profiting from the trade war with critical raw materials
With Donald Trump's re-election as president and the announcement of tariffs specifically on Chinese goods, a trade war seems inevitable. In December, the Chinese Ministry of Commerce announced it would no longer supply tungsten and other rare minerals to the US. This was in response to the US restrictions on the sale of AI chips to China. Without critical raw materials such as gallium or tungsten, many high-tech products can no longer be produced. These materials are used in semiconductors, which are incorporated into nearly all electronics, cars, medical devices, and many other areas.

New BUY WAVE! D-Wave, TUI, and Saturn Oil + Gas want to break through resistance
Quantum stocks have come through Monday's AI quake relatively well. This shows that investors are differentiating and not blindly selling. D-Wave has proven good timing with a strategic move. Is the next purchase wave coming? Saturn Oil & Gas also appears ripe for rising prices. The Canadian oil producer is planning a massive free cash flow in the coming years and is buying back substantial amounts of new shares. The stock can be worthwhile for traders and long-term investors. TUI also makes a positive impression. The tourism Company's stock is currently gathering strength after the price rally in the second half of 2024. Buy now?

Watch out! VW and BMW are turning, Benton Resources is stepping on the gas, while Nordex and Siemens Energy are on the sidelines
For the German economy, a 180-degree shift in economic policy is needed to stop the ongoing migration of industries abroad. However, this requires signs of a consistent refocusing on burning issues, which neither the parties with a claim to the government nor the opposition can really present. International investors have refocused on European markets at the beginning of the year, as reforms are expected. The premature praise for Donald Trump has generated new highs in the US, but now the NASDAQ seems to be running out of steam. Germany, as the laggard in terms of economic growth, offers very low valuations that have rarely been seen for longer periods. We highlight some opportunities.

Rheinmetall, European Lithium, BYD – Drastic measures
The pressure from the former and current US president to increase defense spending among NATO partners remains high, which means that defense companies will likely face a revaluation. By contrast, subsidies for electric vehicles in the US are on the verge of being phased out. However, industry experts and analysts are convinced that the global trend towards electric mobility will remain unaffected. China remains the largest growth market for electric vehicles, with a share of 65% and 11 million vehicles sold, and the trend is rising. As a result, the demand for the basic raw material lithium is increasing.

RWE, F3 Uranium, Nel ASA – New energy policy under Trump! Who benefits?
While former President Biden worked towards climate policy goals, Donald Trump is taking a different approach. His primary goal is to boost the economy, and the best way to do that is to make energy affordable. He wants to increase drilling for fossil fuels in order to lower energy prices. This puts pressure on renewable energies, especially wind power. Solar energy remains part of the energy mix. Nuclear power is gaining in importance. By 2050, nuclear power capacity is to be tripled, partly through the use of small modular reactors. This should improve the CO2 balance. In the hydrogen sector, the focus could be on blue hydrogen due to increased natural gas production.

Novo Nordisk, Desert Gold Ventures, Palantir – AI madness, Trump fuels the gold rush
Things have been moving at a rapid pace since the old and new President of the United States, Donald Trump, took office. Around 80 decrees were signed on the first working day alone. One of the Republican's goals is to make the US the "global hub for crypto and artificial intelligence". With the commitment of over USD 500 billion for the largest AI project in history, the industry is likely to face further appreciation. The price of gold has also increased, and it is now approaching the magic mark of USD 3,000 per ounce. In this context, producers and exploration companies are now likely to tap into their catch-up potential.

Volkswagen, Nova Pacific Metals, D-Wave Quantum – Is a trade war about to break out?
Donald Trump is the new president of the United States of America, and he is moving at a rapid pace. On his first day, he issued several decrees, and his inaugural address was also impactful. He announced tariffs on imports. Goods from Mexico and Canada will be subject to 25% customs duties. And tariffs of up to 60% are being considered for products from China. If the US isolates itself like this, China, in particular, could significantly restrict its raw material exports, and the trade war would be officially underway. The race for critical raw materials has already begun. Trump has already put out feelers to Greenland and Canada. Where will high-tech industries source their raw materials from in the future?

Better than Nvidia! Vistra, Siemens Energy, Nordex, XXIX Metal
With a gain of 264%, Vistra Energy outshone Nvidia in 2024. Who would have thought that a "boring" stock could increase tenfold in less than four years. But the stock is benefiting massively from the AI hype. The same goes for the German company Siemens Energy. Both are still unstoppable in the new year. At the beginning of the energy value chain, commodity stocks have catch-up potential. One promising stock is XXIX Metal. The Company focuses on copper in Canada and has takeover potential. The stock has also been listed in Frankfurt since this month and recently published positive results. Nordex could become a Trump loser. US business accounts for a noticeable share of the bulging order book. What happens next?

Top performers wanted! Nel ASA, First Nordic Metals, thyssenkrupp and Agnico-Eagle
With rising inflation since 2021, the price of gold has also risen significantly. Over the last 20 years, resourceful investors have always been able to compensate for the loss of purchasing power with an average return of a good 8.5% per year. The crux of the matter is that one could not trade the ups and downs in precious metals because only long-term holders can look back on gold prices around USD 500 in 2005. Today, 20 years later, new highs of USD 2,788 have already been reached. Agnico-Eagle is one of the most successful mines in the world, with its shares almost doubling in the last 12 months. Things have been going equally well for Agnico's partner, the explorer First Nordic Metals. A closer analysis reveals even more ideas for boosting your portfolio.

Almonty, Rheinmetall, Palantir - Strategic decisions in global competition
Geopolitical tensions and technological innovations are the driving forces behind the current market movements in the defense and AI sectors. The leading tungsten producer, Almonty Industries, plans to move its headquarters to the US to strengthen domestic raw material independence for the defense industry. The timing is ideal as China tightens trade restrictions on both raw materials and US defense companies. Meanwhile, in Germany, the Federal Cartel Office has approved a far-reaching German-Italian defense project between Rheinmetall AG and Leonardo S.p.A. - the aim is to strengthen European security, particularly with regard to ground troops. The US tech company Palantir Technologies is further expanding its position in the AI market and is increasingly using AI platform technology for commercial customers. We look at what investors need to know now.
