The correction wave is rolling: Adyen, Almonty Industries, Nel ASA - is a 100% turnaround quickly possible?
Looking back, 2023 has been an exceptionally good stock market year. However, there has been no noticeable momentum for a few weeks now; instead, major players are trying to maintain the high level. However, the profit warnings are piling up, which we should have received for months, given the economic weakness. But the executives are taking time to lower their forecasts, hoping things improve. The fact that stocks still trended upward for months despite huge interest rate increases is due to the reawakened NASDAQ bull market with the trending topics of Artificial Intelligence and Greentech. But just hoping for falling interest rates is not enough. Now sentiment has also turned, and prices are falling. Time for us to take a look at some of the "Fallen Angels". Who will manage the turnaround?

BYD, Defense Metals, Rheinmetall - Rare opportunities
In the race to meet climate targets, both politics and business are entering uncharted territory. The rapid departure from fossil fuels calls for alternative energy sources, increasing dependence on metallic raw materials, especially copper, cobalt, nickel and rare earth metals. But these essential resources, predominantly sourced from China, pose not only economic but also security challenges for the West, as they also play a key role in armaments.

Powerful movement through the flood of figures - Siemens Energy, Almonty Industries, Nio
The second quarter number season is at its peak, and surprises on both sides promise high volatility. BioNTech, the vaccine manufacturer, was hit hard after the end of the COVID-19 pandemic. Siemens Gamesa's wind power business also negatively affected the parent company's balance sheet. There are currently plenty of opportunities in the market, especially for traders.

Raw materials war - is China getting serious? BASF, Mercedes-Benz, Almonty Industries
Energy transition, smartphones, semiconductors, armaments and more are driving our hunger for critical raw materials. But woe betide if China gets serious and severely restricts the export of critical raw materials. There is already a foretaste: the minerals gallium and germanium can no longer be exported without Beijing's approval. China is by far the leading producer of critical raw materials and rare earths. The EU gets 71% of its gallium and 45% of its germanium from China. So it urgently needs alternative suppliers. In the case of tungsten, Almonty Industries could provide supply. The Company is on the verge of starting operations at a huge mine in South Korea. From 2024, sales and profits are expected to climb sharply. Mercedes could also benefit from this. The Stuttgart-based company has just announced plans to invest billions more in electromobility. BASF, on the other hand, is going straight to China.

High-tech as an investment opportunity - how Almonty Industries, NVIDIA and FREYR Battery are profiting from the boom
With KT's Mine Safety DX technology, tungsten producer Almonty Industries is conducting pioneering work in the Sangdong mine in South Korea. The solution enhances worker safety and promotes efficient mining practices, a sign of strong ESG commitment. Due to its high density, comparable to gold, tungsten is used in aerospace, automotive, sports and telecommunications applications. NVIDIA is also going high-tech, building the world's first supercomputer to give companies quick and easy access to AI. Norwegian company FREYR Battery, on the other hand, can look forward to EUR 100 million in EU funding as a non-member. Why? Find out here.

K+S, Almonty Industries, Rock Tech Lithium - Europe arms itself against shortage situation
European industry is transforming, with the ban on combustion engines from 2035 being just one example. The energy transition is creating an increased need for critical materials and raw materials to make the changeover in industry possible. The European Commission has also recognized this and launched a Critical Raw Materials Act (CRMA). This is intended to optimize and diversify supplies. Recycling and research into resource efficiency are also on the agenda. We, therefore, look at three companies involved in critical raw materials.

Records upon records at Tesla, BYD, Almonty Industries and XPeng!
Led by the innovation driver Tesla, which delivered better-than-expected quarterly delivery figures, Chinese competitors also boasted record sales. Thus, Elon Musk's plan to boost volumes through discounts worked. The increasing sales raise the demand for critical metals for the production of electric vehicles, benefiting the producers of these scarce resources in the long run.

Norway plans rare earths coup - but at what cost? Rheinmetall, Mercedes-Benz, Defense Metals
Tanks are rolling through Europe once again. Since February 24, 2022, the Ukraine war has kept the world on edge. But even on Germany's roads, vehicles weighing several tons are rolling around in the form of SUVs. While in China, a 700 kg city runabout is winning the hearts of customers, in Germany, even the lower middle class like to show off. Today we look at what this means for the hunger for critical raw materials, why Norway now wants to mine rare earths at the bottom of the sea, and what promising land alternatives exist.
