Airbus, Almonty, thyssenkrupp: Market impacts and investment opportunities in focus
The aerospace company Airbus recently lowered its financial targets for 2024 due to supply chain issues and additional costs in the aerospace division. Aircraft buyers will have to wait longer than previously communicated for the delivery of new aircraft. Tungsten supplier Almonty Industries could become a guarantor of seamless supply chains thanks to production sites in conflict-free countries. Almonty owns mines in Portugal, Spain, and South Korea. Czech billionaire Daniel Křetínský's investment in thyssenkrupp shows how much demand for tungsten is increasing. In times of increasing armament, steel with tungsten is becoming more and more valuable and in demand. Křetínský is known for investing in undervalued companies and aims to acquire 20% of the Duisburg steel giant. Restructuring at the personnel level has unions up in arms. Where is an investment worthwhile?

Almonty Industries, thyssenkrupp, Rheinmetall: Three metal industry shares in focus
The metal industry contributes globally to the development of various sectors through continuous innovation driven by mining, R&D and technological advances. Tough times lie ahead for thyssenkrupp. During the Annual General Meeting, CEO Miguel López emphasized that energy costs for steel production will account for up to half of total costs. Quo Vadis, Germany, as a business location? So, let's take a look at South Korea, another renowned steel producer. The tungsten mining company Almonty Industries is positioning itself as a pioneer here, aiming to cover 7% of the global market. Its strategy involves mining in democratically governed countries and establishing first-class trade partners such as the US and South Korea. Given the geopolitical tensions, in which 90% of tungsten production comes from China and Russia, investors should analyze Almonty more closely. Meanwhile, Rheinmetall, an arms manufacturer, is enjoying full-order books and, for the first time, is exploring a completely new technology division for its portfolio expansion.

Forget lithium! Now comes vanadium! Nordex, Manuka Resources, ThyssenKrupp
Since February 24 at the latest, a new era has also begun in Germany. While before that, it was still possible to avoid the energy turnaround somewhat, the war has changed everything.

We present companies that could surprise positively and clarify how investors should best invest.

Records push for action - Desert Gold Ventures, ThyssenKrupp, BioNTech
The statement comes as little surprise to many. The German Federal Bank said that annual inflation in the eurozone would likely reach a new record high in the last quarter of 2022 due to rising commodity costs and supply shortages. In addition, German Bundesbank head Nagel believes the German economy may slip into recession in the winter. It is therefore likely that the monetary watchdogs have lost the race for inflation, especially in the eurozone. Further rate hikes are only expected to stall the economy's growth engine further. It is time to look at long-term positions in the precious metals sector.

Defense Metals, Gazprom, ThyssenKrupp - Winners and losers
A brave Ukrainian woman hunts down a Russian drone - with a well-aimed throw through a jar of pickled tomatoes. For defense, every means is justified. But there is also a more strategic way to invest in companies that supply raw materials for military technology - and without conflict for investors with a sense of justice. The German economy, on the other hand, could be in for a real shock if Gazprom makes good on its threats and shuts down Nord Stream 1 as a result of the sanctions. Germany is one of the biggest buyers of Russian gas. ThyssenKrupp is also benefiting from the current situation. It becomes quite clear what the Group is really gaining from right now.
