Sell Varta shares? Nel and Altech Advanced Materials with new opportunities
The bad news for Varta seems to be unending. First, a cyber attack paralyzed the Company. Now, analysts are lowering their thumbs and recommending selling the share. Estimates for the years 2024 and 2025 have been lowered. As a result, Altech Advanced is increasingly becoming the German battery hopeful. Even though Altech's share price has declined significantly in recent months, the Company is on track operationally. The current year will be exciting. Things also remain exciting for hydrogen shares. While Nel and Plug Power & Co. still need to prove the future viability of their business models, they are receiving billions in support.

The Nel share is tumbling, Nordex is gaining momentum, and dynaCERT is building strength
Is there a 70% upside potential in the Nordex share? This is what analysts are suggesting based on the convincing preliminary figures. But is this development sustainable? Shareholders are hoping for convincing quarterly figures from Nel, even though no major orders have been reported for some time. The share is in a clear downward trend, and analysts have recently drastically reduced the price target for the hydrogen pure-play. While the shares of Nel, Plug Power & Co. are stumbling, dynaCERT is showing relative strength. In an industry environment that is anything but positive, the shares of the Canadian hydrogen company are forming a base.

Innovation and expansion in energy supply: Mercedes-Benz, Altech Advanced Materials and Alibaba in focus
Energy supply is one of the top issues for investors. A reliable energy supply promotes stable business conditions and supports economic growth. While the opposite is true in Germany, companies like Mercedes-Benz are focusing on lucrative projects abroad. A joint venture with China to expand charging stations is on the Stuttgart-based company's agenda. The German company Altech Advanced Materials is committed to a secure and affordable energy supply. Together with Fraunhofer IKTS, they are developing a stationary ceramic solid-state battery based on salt, especially for critical infrastructure facilities such as hospitals. This enables a smooth, vital power supply for intensive care units, even in emergencies. While Mercedes-Benz is currently eyeing China, the retail giant Alibaba is publishing its quarterly figures this week, serving as an indicator of the country's economic development. The details are summarized below.

Combustion engine versus battery! BYD, Altech Advanced Materials, Mercedes and VW in focus
The year 2024 is going like clockwork for the high-tech sector so far. Anything smelling of "Artificial Intelligence" is being valued significantly higher on the stock market with relatively little scrutiny. In the DAX 40 Index, this has notably affected Siemens and SAP and the topic of armaments, which in turn catapulted Airbus and Rheinmetall into new realms. Things are even more dynamic on the Nasdaq, where Microsoft and Nvidia, in particular, are causing a sensation. However, e-mobility, particularly favoured by the Berlin traffic light coalition, is stumbling due to the abolition of the environmental bonus in December 2023. Customers are again opting for domestic combustion engines and Chinese e-imports. We analyze the current opportunities for investors.
