100% chance of peace in 2025: Ukraine, Israel & Syria! Rheinmetall, Renk, Almonty and Palantir in focus
The DAX ran a little hot in December, with a new all-time high of over 20,522 points. Shortly before Christmas, it fell back to 19,850 points. Some say healthy; others say a turnaround. The fact is that the 2024 investment year was only positive for a fraction of the listed stocks despite the recessionary environment. They come from the high-tech, artificial intelligence, banking and defense sectors. With the renewed escalation of Russian attacks at the turn of the year, hopes for peace have been postponed for the time being, leaving defense stocks with their dearly paid-for charm. Producers of strategic metals are again coming into focus because, for Western industrial nations, the task is to secure supply chains as best as possible. Where are the opportunities for investors at the turn of the year?

Vote of confidence: What is the future of high-tech and crypto? SMCI, Myriad Uranium, MicroStrategy and Palantir in focus
Yesterday, Chancellor Scholz asked the Bundestag for a confidence vote. There were 394 no votes for a continuation of the federal government, thus paving the way for elections in February 2025. How will energy policy, in particular, change? CDU rival Merz wants to tackle the issue by including all available sources. Does that mean a return to nuclear energy? The situation in Germany is dramatic. After the shutdown of seven large power plants in 2024, a new term is making the rounds: 'dark doldrums'. The term describes periods when there is hardly any wind, and the sun does not provide any energy either. The remaining fossil fuel power plants are running at full capacity, fuelled by coal, oil and gas. Internationally, nuclear power has long been recognised as a central energy source, even under the 'NetZero' framework, and the development of new technologies is advancing. What should investors pay particular attention to now?

Find the 100% opportunities for 2025! Rheinmetall, Renk, Globex Mining, C3.ai and Palantir in focus
After a 30% rise in prices in the major indices since the beginning of the year, investors are asking themselves how they can weatherproof their portfolio for 2025. On the one hand, a well-defined stop strategy for overheated high-tech stocks is an option. Therefore, the topic of trailing stops should be studied in more detail and implemented. For new investments, there are always interesting setbacks to get back in on the next party. This scenario currently applies to the defense stocks Renk and Rheinmetall. Globex Mining covers almost the entire range of strategic metals that are indispensable for high-tech and defense manufacturers. Furthermore, some AI stocks like Palantir or C3.ai deserve a critical look. Accumulated profits could quickly disappear again here. We are delving deeper into the analysis.

F3 Uranium, Palantir and Alphabet: How the AI boom is driving demand for nuclear energy and benefiting tech giants
The increasing energy demand for AI applications and data centers is driving the demand for reliable, low-carbon base load supply from nuclear power. This is putting explorers like F3 Uranium in the spotlight of investors. With its PLN project and uranium holdings of up to 30.9% U3O8, the Company is positioning itself as an important raw materials supplier for this development. As an AI specialist, Palantir is benefiting from the current growth in several ways: On the one hand, through new contracts in the defense sector, such as the recent collaboration with Anduril Industries and the contract extension with the US Special Operations Command. On the other hand, the growing demand for a stable energy supply for its computationally intensive applications. Alphabet is investing heavily in its AI infrastructure, with planned spending of USD 50 billion. These investments in data centers and cloud computing require a reliable power supply, which is increasingly to be provided by nuclear power.

Copper shortage, Crypto, and a hunger for energy! What is in store for Super Micro Computer, MicroStrategy, SAP and XXIX Metal Corp. in 2025?
Sharp increases in energy commodities are hindering electrification projects. Copper is indispensable for these initiatives and will become one of the key resources driving innovation in the coming years. Without the red metal, electric motors cannot be built and huge amounts of electricity cannot be transported over land. Copper is also a critical component in designing a completely new energy infrastructure. Trends such as Web 3.0, high-performance computing, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence are further exacerbating the energy shortage. Significant demand increases are expected in China and India, whose resource hunger impacts the entire planet. The race against time is already in its third round; new copper deposits must be developed urgently! Which stocks are at the forefront?

Year-end rally: DAX high, Bitcoin, or gold? SMCI, Thunder Gold, Dell and SAP under the microscope
December begins as November ended: New highs on the DAX, high-tech stocks remain in demand, and Bitcoin and gold are consolidating slightly. With only 16 trading days left, now is the time to find the right portfolio structure for 2025. Despite unbridled investor optimism, next year could see a sector rotation that causes the overbought stocks to consolidate and brings long-neglected stocks to the forefront. At Super Micro Computer, many uncertainties are now being put into perspective. Its partner, Nvidia, has not been able to report any new highs since the Q3 figures. On the other hand, SAP is enjoying record growth, having seen one of the strongest rebounds since its founding. What happens now? Here are some ideas for risk-conscious investors.

Coinbase, Desert Gold Ventures, MicroStrategy – On to new records
Donald Trump's transformation from crypto skeptic to unconditional supporter boosted digital currencies after his election and brought Bitcoin close to the USD 100,000 mark. In contrast, precious metals lost ground following his election victory but have already regained their lost territory. While the gold price remains close to its historic highs, promising producers and exploration companies are far from record levels, offering substantial long-term catch-up potential.

Crypto & Bitcoin, the USD 100,000 madness – Will power shortages loom? Coinbase, Myriad Uranium, C3.ai and Palantir
The crypto madness continues! This week, Bitcoin enthusiasts are glued to their trading screens. Will the cryptocurrency break through the USD 100,000 barrier? Experts in the coin segment even consider price targets between USD 250,000 and 1 million conceivable. Anything is possible, as they say today. Meanwhile, market analysts are also noting the looming risks of power shortages. The extensive mining operations and the increasing use of artificial intelligence are consuming unprecedented amounts of electricity, demands not anticipated five years ago. Several countries have, therefore, decided to expand their nuclear power capacities, including France, Poland, Finland, the US and China. Conversely, Germany plans to stick to renewable energy sources - let's hope the sun starts shining at night soon. We explore these booming segments and seek opportunities for returns.
