Ukraine, Middle East, BRICS - Is climate policy over? Nel ASA, Klimat X, SFC Energy and Plug Power with 100% chances!
The turnaround was sudden and very sharp. A few days ago, the DAX, NASDAQ and hydrogen stocks were in free fall, but the tide turned at the beginning of November. The DAX 40 jumped 600 points because the central banks on both sides of the Atlantic finally ceased tightening, and the first interest rate cuts are now expected in 2024. The hydrogen protagonists suffered losses of up to 70% in just 6 months - but Nel & Co have already made up a third of those losses. What is next for Greentech stocks?

Nel ASA, Klimat X Developments, Nvidia - Huge potential in future markets
In today's world, characterized by technological innovation and the constant pursuit of more sustainable solutions, enormous potential for breakthrough developments is opening up in various sectors. Artificial intelligence (AI), hydrogen technology, and carbon credits, in particular, are focused on opportunities that could revolutionize the way we generate energy, manage resources, and combat climate change. These future technologies not only offer the opportunity to reduce environmental impact but also promise significant economic and social benefits. We look at three companies with considerable potential, each covering one of these areas.

Volkswagen, Altech Advanced Materials, JinkoSolar - Electromobility and Battery Technology: A forward-looking combination
The energy transition is an important topic in today's world. More and more countries are setting themselves the goal of switching their energy supply to renewable sources to combat climate change and create a sustainable future. Energy storage systems play a crucial role in this, especially in the integration of renewable energies into the power grid and supporting electromobility, which depends on rechargeable batteries. There are many exciting developments in this context. Today, we take a look at three companies that stand to benefit from new innovations.

Nikola, Klimat X and BYD make significant steps forward
The current stock market year has so far been one to forget for companies in the Greentech industry. Whether hydrogen, wind or solar energy, the still mostly loss-making hopefuls have not yet been able to deliver on their lofty goals for a climate-neutral world. However, the potential in the coming decades is enormous. According to experts, the trade in CO2 certificates alone is expected to increase eightfold by 2030.

Klimat X, Siemens Energy, Rheinmetall: Environmental protection and defense - Who is ahead with the best returns?
McKinsey estimates that demand for carbon credits could increase fifteenfold by 2030 and even a hundredfold by 2050. The market could be worth more than USD 50 billion by 2030. The Company Klimat X trades in these credits and generates them through active environmental protection. It provides sustainable investment opportunities, and interested investors can learn more about how it works in this article. Meanwhile, current world events are dominated by the terrorist attack in Israel, benefiting defense companies like Rheinmetall. On the other hand, the wind energy sector is down. Siemens Energy has devised a drastic plan to regain profitability.

CO2 Certificates - The Solution for Climate Change? Nel ASA, Klimat X, Ballard Power and Plug Power in the analysis check!
The transition to a sustainable climate cannot be solely funded by the public. Success depends on private initiatives. It is, therefore, all the more important that inventiveness and entrepreneurial energy in this critical economic sector are also rewarded and promoted. In May 2022, the European Union launched REPowerEU, a billion-dollar program on how to shape the energy future. At the time, hydrogen accounted for less than 2% of energy consumption in Europe and was mainly used to manufacture chemical products such as plastics and fertilizers. The European Commission has proposed producing about 10 million tons of renewable hydrogen by 2030 and importing another 10 million tons to reduce climate-damaging gases. Climate innovations are evaluated differently on the stock market, and we will focus on some key players.

Shell, Hard Value Fund, Rheinmetall - All for performance!
Sustainability is a significant and important topic. Due to recent developments, it is often associated with the environmental and social sustainability of financial products. However, investing purely based on these two criteria can cost investors dearly. For example, global leaders in the hydrogen sector, such as Plug Power, lost around 90% of their value within two years, while wind turbine manufacturer Nordex experienced a peak decline of around 70%. In contrast, fossil fuel producers such as Shell, BP and Exxon enjoyed a boom and were able to multiply their share prices over the same period. Whether investments should, therefore, be made exclusively in ESG-compliant stocks is more than questionable from a return point of view because many companies do not yet offer one thing: financial sustainability.

ThyssenKrupp Nucera, Klimat X, Ballard Power - Gigantic potential
There is no question that hydrogen is a key element in climate neutrality. Politicians are, therefore, backing the invisible, odorless gas with billions in subsidies. However, after a stock market boom at the beginning of the decade, the prices of hydrogen shares have been falling sharply for months. There is no question that the long-term potential is enormous. The forecasts for trading in CO2 certificates are similarly high. Experts expect the market to multiply by a factor of 10 by 2030.

Warning against the Green Illusion! SMA Solar, Saturn Oil + Gas, JinkoSolar
About one-fifth of Germany's gross final energy consumption comes from renewable energies - and the trend is rising. Renewables are also on the rise in the US and China. From an investor's point of view, this naturally suggests itself as an investment. Renewable energy is climate-neutral, cost-effective, and politically supported. Despite these apparent advantages, some pitfalls still surround this presumed self-propelling sector. We shed light on why sustainably-minded investors do not need to shy away from fossil energy sources and why certain challenges exist within the Green Illusion.

RegenX Tech Corp, Daimler Truck, Siemens Energy - Rethinking sustainability with great investment potential
RegenX Tech Corp. recovers palladium from used diesel vehicle catalytic converters to return the precious raw material to the economic cycle. With increasing global demand for palladium in various industries, the Canadian company has promising prospects. Construction of the first plant in Tennessee, USA, has been approved, with plans for a gradual capacity expansion to four module sites. Daimler Truck is known for its robust diesel vehicles. Since the spin-off from the main Mercedes-Benz Group, the Company has been doing better than ever. Now it is aiming for 12% returns and promising dividend shareholders 40-60% participation in the group committee. Meanwhile, Siemens Energy is currently dealing with committees of a different kind. They have encountered a significant issue with their Spanish wind turbine subsidiary Gamesa. A task force and various committees are investigating the problem.
