Royal Dutch, Saturn Oil + Gas, Bayer: The oil price and the pandemic in 2022
COVID-19 is a black swan for the economy, but does the pandemic favor lower or higher oil prices? Not an easy determination because, for one thing, the measures to contain the pandemic significantly lower economic activity. Production delays and supply chain failures occur, so oil demand should fall there. On the other hand, a shortage of inputs and constraints in logistics lead to higher delivery and waiting times, thus creating some hoarding pressure, which increases demand for the black gold. Due to the shortness of history, the actual connection is also little researched, i.e. how it really is could remain hidden from us for some time. Who benefits from the current cycle of price increases?

Infineon, Saturn Oil + Gas, S&T - A lot of movement at the end of the year
A lot is happening in the last stock market days of 2021. Fears of further lockdowns due to the Omicron variant are weighing on the markets, as are concerns about interest rate hikes in the near future. As a result, the DAX is denied a final spurt towards 16,000 points. The oil price is also consolidating due to the economic risks resulting from possible imminent lockdowns. Finally, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan caused a drumbeat by introducing several measures to prevent further dollarization of the economy. He succeeded in the short term, with the Turkish lira recovering by around 30% within minutes.

Nordex, Saturn Oil + Gas, Varta: In search of energy multipliers
The energy transition is a megatrend. The consequences of it are complex and affect almost every industry. Did you know that the BASF plant in Ludwigshafen alone needs as much electricity as Denmark? It is no wonder that the shift from fossil to renewable energy sources will not happen overnight. We look at three stocks and classify their role in the energy transition. This much is already clear: Sometimes, opportunities lurk off the beaten track.

Royal Dutch, Saturn Oil + Gas, BP: The best oil stocks for 2022!
At the beginning of the Corona pandemic in 2020, the OPEC+ alliance had cut daily production by around 9.7 million barrels. This managed to support oil prices, which had fallen below USD 40 due to the slump in the global economy. In the meantime, the oil tap has been gradually turned back on to moderate the rise in oil prices. The production cut is currently being lifted by 400,000 barrels per month. The cartel is currently supplying about 27 million barrels to the market, which is significantly less than before the pandemic. The current 12% price collapse in November came as quite a surprise to OPEC. However, experts believe that in 2022 there will again be an increased demand for oil. We analyze the most interesting producers.

Saturn Oil + Gas, BP, Gazprom - Buy when the guns are thundering?
The possible impact of a new Corona variant led to significant declines in the stock markets at the end of last week. The German benchmark index lost around 1000 points within just 2 weeks. Oil and gas stocks have been hit particularly hard in recent days. The oil price lost last on a single day 11-12%. The development thus prices in, among other things, travel restrictions, lockdowns and a cooling of the economy. The tapping of strategic oil reserves, which US President Biden recently announced, plays a psychological role in the big picture in supply and demand. Much more exciting is what OPEC will soon say about its production plans. Where are the opportunities now?

Nordex, Saturn Oil + Gas, TotalEnergies - Good numbers, bad numbers
While the third-quarter figures of many companies in the renewable energies sector were disappointing, oil companies were able to profit from rising oil and natural gas prices. Even though the recently concluded World Climate Conference resolved to move away from fossil fuels, experts believe that oil demand is likely to continue, if not increase, in the coming decade.

Nordex, Gazprom, Saturn Oil + Gas: Rising oil and gas price drive
Leading politicians and industry leaders are meeting in Glasgow until November 12 for the climate conference. So far, however, there has been nothing more than "hot air" to report. Not only climate activists are disappointed. Even German Development Minister Gerd Müller criticized the interim results. "The emerging resolutions are not enough to achieve the 1.5-degree target," the CSU politician told Redaktionsnetzwerk Deutschland. There is also little news on the expansion of renewable energies. It is therefore not surprising that the oil price is picking up again. With a rise to USD 83.78, the price for the Brent variety has ended the correction. There is also no relief in sight for the price of gas. The shares of Gazprom and Saturn Oil & Gas are benefiting from this. But Nordex is also attracting attention with new orders.

Deutsche Rohstoff, Saturn Oil + Gas, BP - Rise to hysteria
Energy prices in Germany continue to rise, driving inflation beyond the 4% mark. Heating oil alone increased in price by around 80% within a year. However, there is no end in sight to the rise. The supply bottleneck and immense demand are likely to push oil prices above the psychological USD 100 mark in the next few years. Analysts at JPMorgan even see a new supercycle approaching the world and renewed their forecast to an oil price of USD 190 in 2025.

Royal Dutch, BP, Saturn Oil + Gas: OPEC sends oil to 100 dollars!
The oil rally continues! In October, the Brent and WTI grades recorded an increase of around 10%. Market observers justified the friendly month with the good mood on the stock markets. The risk appetite returned due to the turn of the markets at the beginning of October. More volatile asset classes such as commodities benefited from this. Time and again, reference is also made to fuel reserves in China, which had recently fallen sharply. The world's second-largest economy could now buy more on the oil market to strategically replenish its reserves. Tension is rising in the oil market. Which stocks can benefit in this environment?

BP, Saturn Oil & Gas, Royal Dutch Shell - Oil stocks take off
Anyone who has to fill up their car at the moment will not be thrilled. Prices at gas stations rose in some cases to over EUR 2. The reason is the further rising oil price. An end to this trend is currently not in sight. Morgan Stanley analyst Martijn Rats raised his forecasts for the first quarter of 2022 to USD 95 and sees the oil price at USD 70 per barrel in the long term. Falling supply due to scaled-back investments is causing prices to rise. Due to climate protection and the targets set, investments in the development of new oil wells have been significantly reduced. In 2014 it was still USD 740 billion; 6 years later, it is only USD 350 billion. Oil producers are currently benefiting the most from this development, so we take a closer look at three companies.
