Changing conditions in terms of broken supply chains, high raw material prices and an uncertain geopolitical situation have put many companies in dire straits since the Corona pandemic, leading to a collapse in sales and liquidity bottlenecks.

Meta Materials and Palantir for the future, what is Commerzbank doing?
The financial industry is shaking after the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) and the problems of Credit Suisse. The rapid rise in interest rates caught banks cold that had bet on long government bonds with low interest rates. SVB had to report losses due to the falling prices of these bonds. As a result, more and more customers withdrew their funds, and the bank was already in trouble, even though the government bonds were supposedly safe. Now the FED is likely to reconsider its interest rate policy. Some market participants even expect the interest rate to be lowered. This plays into the cards of growth companies, which previously suffered from the hikes. We, therefore, highlight Meta Materials and Palantir, two growth companies with innovative technologies, and conclude with a look at Commerzbank.

The big battery question of 2023: BASF, Altech Advanced Materials, Volkswagen - Who is the fastest?
In recent months it has become clear to investors that the global economy will have to contend with sharp price increases after the pandemic. The greatest inflationary pressure comes from scarce raw materials, especially for high-tech industrial goods. That is because the trend toward climate protection is forcing the industry to make its manufacturing processes more resource-efficient. As a result, this requires major investment in new energy plants and storage systems. Electromobility is still the smaller problem here because how will humanity secure green energy supplies around the globe? The energy hunger of the emerging nations already exceeds the new demand in the industrialized nations by a factor of six. Sophisticated ideas are needed!

Bank quake? Our assessment! SVB Financial, Credit Suisse, Aspermont
If you were unfamiliar with the US bank SVB until last Thursday, at least you did not have much of an education gap. The bank was forced to sell bonds under pressure and made losses in the billions. The share price collapsed, and a capital increase failed. We look at the latest status around SVB and what lessons investors can learn from the situation.

Innovations for millions: Volkswagen, JinkoSolar, Meta Materials
If a company is ahead of the competition, its business runs all by itself. Large companies invest billions to set themselves apart from the market. But the structure of corporations too often puts the brakes on visionary projects. Fortunately, there are smaller companies that are wholly committed to new technology. We present three companies and explain which could soon become the focus of the big players.

Aspermont, Amazon, Shop Apotheke - These shares embrace digitization!
Companies like the Canadian media company Aspermont are among the pioneers of digitization and are thus miles ahead of their competitors. With their unique platform solution, the original mining trade magazine publisher can quickly scale into other segments and keep both industry and experts up to date with the latest knowledge. The value of successful digitization is also evident in the Shop Apotheke business figures now published. The digital mail-order pharmacy, which is accessible in Europe, is able to score points despite a change in the management board. In the US, Amazon is one step further, launching 24/7 digital patient care operations through One Medical.

Greentech in focus: BASF, Meta Materials, Nordex, JinkoSolar - Invest now in the Climate Action Plan 2.0!
In the daily press, in addition to the terrible images from Ukraine, we are also occupied with unresolved questions about the energy industry of the future. It has been decided that the path will lead via innovations and renewable energies, but the underlying pace will not be sufficient for a quick turnaround. Moving away from the internal combustion engine is just as much a matter for discussion as condemning nuclear energy. Resourceful researchers are therefore developing new ideas for technological concepts that will change vast areas of life. However, implementing the solutions will cost a lot of money and require scarce raw materials. What should investors be focusing on at the moment?
