Last Generation in Lützerath - Greentech shares jump! Siemens Energy, Auxico Resources, JinkoSolar, and Nordex in focus
Fossil energy supply is becoming increasingly uncertain and is a red rag for the "Last Generation". What is currently happening in Lützerath could become a blueprint for Germany's energy problems in the future. The political loss of the supplier and raw material giant Russia creates a dangerous undersupply, especially for Central Europe. Due to the mild winter, gas reserves are still abundant, but public pressure is on the industry. Production processes must become more sustainable, even if this initially increases costs in the short term due to necessary investments. In the long term, however, this will sustainably renew the German industrial landscape and make it much more competitive again. Which Greentech stocks should you keep an eye on?

Auxico Resources, Rheinmetall, Rock Tech Lithium - Important news
Fears of a global recession are still pervasive, and commodity prices are at moderate levels after the sell-off of recent months. In contrast, the price of lithium remains high. The reason is the continued strong demand from the electric car industry. However, the existing supply of lithium resources is scarce. The primary beneficiaries of this shortage, in addition to existing producers, are exploration companies that have already secured attractive properties. A similar phenomenon is occurring now with the critical commodity of rare earth metals.

Auxico Resources, BYD, Nordex - Energy transition in danger: shortage of critical raw materials
The energy transition, i.e. the transition to a sustainable, low-carbon and renewable energy supply, is an important step in combating the climate crisis. However, some critical raw materials are needed for the expansion of renewable energies and whose scarcity can pose a threat to the energy transition. These include, for example, rare earths, cobalt and lithium, which are used in the manufacture of solar panels, wind turbines and electric cars. In this context, one should not underestimate the current dependence on China, which has a monopoly position, especially in rare earths. We therefore take a look at three companies around the energy transition.

Manuka Resources, Volkswagen, Mercedes Benz - Strong demand for resources for electromobility
A major restructuring is taking place at Volkswagen. The new chief designer will be Michael Mauer, who was previously responsible for the design of Porsche. The Wolfsburg company has big plans and wants to become the No. 1 EV manufacturer in Australia. It is precisely in this country that Manuka Resources mines the essential metals for the energy transition. From gold and silver to vanadium, the Company offers value chains from which investors focusing on renewable energies can benefit. Mercedes Benz, the big flagship from Stuttgart, also relies on renewable energies and is massively expanding its battery production sites.

Bayer, BioNTech, Auxico Resources: 200% price gain possible?
With lower than expected inflation in the US, the year-end rally has picked up speed. Could the recession be off after all, or at least short-lived? This would likely boost the stock market in the coming year as well. Today we look at three stocks with potential that benefit from global trends and less from developments in Germany. In the case of Bayer, Bernstein Research has outed itself as a super bull. The global agricultural business should continue to run strong. Auxico Resources is positioning itself as a trader of rare earths and critical raw materials. Revenues are expected to jump significantly in the coming year, and analysts say the stock could triple. BioNTech could finally break out of the sideways trend it has been in since early 2022. The new combination vaccine and the cancer pipeline give hope.

Gas is becoming scarce and raw materials increasingly expensive: Uniper, BYD, Defense Metals, and Nordex in focus
Five years ago, Tesla CEO Elon Musk announced the transportation revolution. Last week, it finally happened: Pepsi was the first company to receive the keys to the new Tesla e-truck called the "Tesla Semi." It is said to have a full 500 miles, or 800 km, range and can be charged in less than an hour with the appropriate high-voltage current. Because fossil fuel energy supplies are becoming more and more expensive, electric innovations are now entering all areas of business. But electricity from the socket also needs its sources. For this, in turn, all countries worldwide are making efforts to get GreenTech off the ground, i.e. the climate-neutral generation of electricity. Only then can e-mobility be said to benefit the environment. What is urgently needed for this are inexpensive energy and metal raw materials.

Debacle for e-mobility? BYD, Varta, Almonty Industries, Nordex - Farewell from the Qatar desert!
The German national soccer team has experienced its next World Cup debacle and attracted even fewer interested people to their TV sets than during the first World Cup elimination 4 years ago. Even during the third-round preliminary match, TV figures remained comparatively low. The DFB women thus retain the viewer record in 2023, which is nice. E-mobility could also suffer a significant setback in 2023 because if electricity prices continue to rise and availability falls, charging stations could have to be taken off the grid. According to the ADAC, Switzerland is planning a speed limit of 100 and driving bans on non-essential private trips with e-mobiles to prevent the risk of blackouts. The decision will be made in the National Council on December 12. But the stock market is still betting on Tesla & Co - who are the profiteers?

BYD, Auxico Resources, Hensoldt, Rheinmetall - Prepared for the future
Russia's invasion of Ukraine at the end of February this year changed everything. While global stock markets fell into a state of shock, shares in defense companies boomed. With the arms buildup in the Western world, the future looks bright for companies that were still viewed critically before the war of aggression. However, in order to produce enough tanks, aircraft and other war equipment, the industry needs a variety of critical metals for which demand already exceeds supply.

Is this patent causing a rare earths quake? Nordex, Defense Metals, BYD
Wind power is a crucial component of the energy transition. Rare earths are used to increase the efficiency of wind turbines and electric motors. Dysprosium and terbium, in particular, are in demand. But although rare earths are anything but rare, they are only found in a few regions worldwide. Scientists at Darmstadt Technical University have now developed processes to use rare earths more efficiently. We explain the technology and shed light on three stocks related to rare earths.

K+S, Defense Metals, RWE - Profiting from stocks that fight shortcomings
The first supply chain problems occurred during the Corona Pandemic. With the outbreak of the Ukraine conflict, further deficiencies of Western countries were exposed. It has been known for a long time that the US and Europe are dependent on raw materials and energy from Russia and China. The Middle Kingdom, in particular, already has a monopoly on critical raw materials such as rare earths and tungsten. There has been a minor trade war between the US and China for some time now. Russia has supplied both Europe and the US with cheap energy. Now in times of tension, the dependencies are coming out in the open. So today, we look at three stocks that can combat the shortage.
