GreenTech takes off again: BASF, Meta Materials, Nordex, JinkoSolar - Is there a quick comeback?
For the rapid expansion of "renewable energies", the traffic light coalition has presented a 500-page package of measures this year. With its help, the share of alternative power generation is to be increased as quickly as possible from the current level of around 50% to about 80%. According to reports from Berlin, the necessary approval loops with authorities will be drastically shortened. However, a prerequisite for this would be the population's approval for any encroachments on property in terms of distance regulations, noise and residential quality. It is here where things are currently hitting a snag because the government's bill includes extensive encroachments on nature and major sacrifices by residents in order to serve the common good. But with no one pushing forward on this issue, skepticism about quick success is warranted. Who are the big beneficiaries of climate technology progress?

BioNTech, Meta Materials, and Amazon - Industry leaders belong in the portfolio
In 2021, the stock market world was still in order - it had been going nowhere but up for years. That was the peak of the stock hype, and many top dogs in their industries were very expensive from a fundamental point of view. That has changed significantly this year. Due to the Ukraine conflict, rising interest rates and ever-higher inflation, many industry leaders had to make significant losses. Even a drop of 50% was not uncommon. Yet the long-term outlook is good. Now that the stock market is slowly regaining momentum, it is worth taking a look at three companies that are leaders in their field.

Globex Mining, Deutsche Telekom, Meta Platforms - Stormy times and a haven of calm
Deutsche Telekom AG has announced its Q3 22 figures. The Bonn-based company is currently profiting from its US business, mainly due to the strong US dollar and customer growth. But in times of recession and inflation, consumption often stays up. 11,000 former Meta employees will likely tighten their belts a bit from now on, even if Mark Zuckerberg continues to pay them salaries for a few more months. His plans are ambitious, with AI expansion at the top of the agenda. It is good to take a closer look at rocks in the surf like Globex Mining. The Company owns 217 areas with valuable raw materials, precious metals and more, which are used in the computer and telecommunication industry.

Varta, Kleos Space, ThyssenKrupp: Wrongly valued? It cannot be!
What a wild ride! The US technology exchange NASDAQ fell by a full 33% in the last 12 months, while the German standard share index DAX fell by only 16%. That is astonishing because the leading German index usually reacts disproportionately to the US growth stocks. Ultimately, however, it is becoming clear that foreigners dominate German share prices. After all, if the euro's currency losses are considered, both indices are back on par. The euro has, after all, also depreciated by 15% since a year ago. Some high-tech stocks in Germany lost significantly more than average. We take a closer look.

The revolution for the portfolio: Meta Platforms, Meta Materials, BYD
The ancient Greeks have always been popular with investors. On the one hand, key figures such as beta, gamma or theta make it clear how warrants behave; on the other hand, a look at the ancient Greeks allows for interesting word creations, for example, when it comes to new companies. The prefix "meta" describes either a change or a higher level. In this article, we highlight two companies that have used this Greek syllable. We explain which shares stand for revolutions and where investors should better steer clear of meta-levels.

TeamViewer, Tocvan Ventures, Advanced Micro Devices - High rebound opportunities
The reporting season for the third quarter is exhilarating. It can be seen that stocks, which in some cases suffered exaggerated price losses in recent months, are starting to jump in price simply because their forecasts have been confirmed. Something similar could also happen in the precious metals sector. Should the monetary authorities loosen the monetary policy again in the coming months, this should result in a rally in gold and silver mining stocks.

Gas price collapses: BASF, Porsche, Meta Materials in an upward trend
The sharp fall in gas prices is creating a good mood among investors. This week, the forward contract (TTF) for natural gas fell to below EUR 100 per MWh, its lowest level since June. This is fueling hopes that inflation will cool and the recession will be less severe. The direct beneficiary is, of course, BASF. In addition, a subsidiary is currently earning billions, and analysts see further price potential overall. According to them, the chemical group is currently "simply too cheap". This could also be the case with hot stock Meta Materials. Recently, new orders have given a boost to the share price. Should the Canadians continue the commercialization of the patent portfolio so successfully, significantly higher prices are possible. After the stuttering IPO, the Porsche share has stepped on the gas. But from the analysts' point of view, the air is slowly getting thinner.

Returns like out of this world: Meta Platforms, Kleos Space, Commerzbank
"The World Is Not Enough" is a James Bond movie title. In real life, too, the rich and powerful have long been pushing into other spheres. But where can investors expect paradisiacal conditions, and where is the threat of a long, lean period? We look at three stocks that promise investors access to new business models and do the investment check: Is it worth reaching for the stars?

US equities reporting season: Netflix, Snap, Meta Platforms, Aspermont - Will it continue explosively?
In October, the reporting season for the 3rd quarter started in the USA. This is a highly exciting time, as moves of up to 25% or more are not uncommon when a NASDAQ stock grossly deviates from its guidance. After years of bliss in the tech sector, a new parameter has also crept into the valuation of growth stocks: Interest rates. Discounted future cash flows represent the value of a stock today. If these are adjusted downward and valued at a higher discount due to increased interest rates, this can trigger significant price corrections in an emergency. Of course, this scenario also applies to upside surprises - a reason for further research.

Deutsche Bank, Meta Materials, Aixtron - A time for optimists
Fears of a global recession and a hard landing of the economy are becoming more likely every day. The sharp rise in the US dollar, the energy crisis in Europe and the slump in growth in China are the main reasons for the prevailing pessimism. Concerns about a further sell-off are also growing on the stock markets. Last week, for example, the Fear & Greed Index peaked at 18 with the verdict "extreme fear". In parallel, the S&P 500 also marked its interim low. Since then, the signs have been pointing to recovery, both in sentiment and on the markets. An opportunity for the optimists!
