Super Micro Computers, F3 Uranium, MicroStrategy – Why technologies like AI are shaping our energy future

  • Mining
  • Uranium
  • AI
  • Energy
  • Technology

Data centers for artificial intelligence (AI) and cryptocurrencies are driving global energy consumption higher, even as the world faces the challenge of climate change. Technologies such as Bitcoin mining and AI applications are extremely energy-intensive, and demand for them is expected to increase significantly by 2030. In this context, nuclear energy is gaining importance as a virtually CO₂-free power source. However, the downside is that the demand for uranium to fuel reactors is growing rapidly, while supply remains limited. Experts are predicting a new bull cycle in the uranium market – a development that could have a lasting impact not only on investors but also on the energy transition.

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.

The global energy transition is taking concrete shape: chemical giant BASF and Australian geothermal specialist Vulcan Energy are forging a groundbreaking alliance for green heat and lithium production in Ludwigshafen. The momentum in the energy sector is further strengthened by the nuclear power renaissance. F3 Uranium is positioning itself with high-grade uranium discoveries in Canada's Athabasca Basin to capitalize on the upcoming demand boom. The expected doubling of uranium demand by 2030 and the planned strategic uranium reserve in the US from 2025 promise strong growth for the sector. Meanwhile, tech giant Amazon is securing its future power supply in the European market by investing billions in Greek wind farms. These developments highlight how large corporations are driving the transformation of energy supply systems.

The re-election of Donald Trump as US President had varying effects on the capital markets. The US dollar gained against all currencies, while the hot topic Bitcoin reached new all-time highs of over USD 90,000. The enormous influx of funds into the US stock markets initially slowed down other exchanges. At the same time, the previously sought-after precious metals corrected sharply, putting pressure on mining stocks again. The first shockwaves have now been absorbed, and attention is turning to the real political issues that the White House will now push forward. Defense, industry, and security are in the spotlight, while biotech and green tech remain sidelined. There are some interesting special movements that we will examine here.

123fahrschule, Intel, Mercedes-Benz - Between disruption and evolution: New business models in focus

  • Digitization
  • Electromobility
  • Technology

Companies in Germany and the US are undergoing a profound transformation: Traditional business models are being digitally transformed, and established market leaders must defend their positions. As Germany's largest driving school chain, 123fahrschule SE is revolutionizing a EUR 2.75 billion market through digitalization and driving simulator technology. From 2025, 50% of theory lessons can be done online - a turning point for the industry. Despite a solid financial position, Mercedes-Benz is struggling with a profit decline in the third quarter of 2024 from EUR 3.4 billion to EUR 1.2 billion. The premium manufacturer is investing heavily in e-mobility, while around 140,000 jobs in the German automotive industry will be lost by 2035. Intel, which has left the Dow Jones after 25 years, is transforming from a pure processor manufacturer to a contract manufacturer. With the new Intel 18A technology and planned cost savings of USD 10 billion by 2025, the chip giant is showing the first signs of success in its transformation.

After a six-week streak in the green, the Dow Jones closed the past trading week in the red. In contrast, the Nasdaq technology exchange and the gold price reached new historic highs, while silver reached its highest level in 12 years. In this area in particular, enormous opportunities lie dormant for producers and smaller mining companies, which have so far been unable to benefit from the current precious metal boom on the stock exchange.

Analysts see more than a 100% upside potential in the 123fahrschule stock. The exciting second-line stock wants to make driver education more modern and efficient and is getting support from politicians. Accordingly, sales and profits should rise sharply. Plug Power can also show rising sales, but like industry colleague Nel, the Americans are unable to get a grip on their losses. Will the quarterly figures turn things around? Bayer shareholders have been waiting for a turnaround for quite some time. But analysts also expect falling profits in the coming quarterly report. Is there still potential for a 40% increase in the DAX share?
