Fireworks for the 2024 energy transition: Siemens Energy, Almonty Industries, Siemens and Nordex in your New Year's Eve portfolio?
Supporters of GreenTech shares came away empty-handed in terms of performance in 2023. Despite repetitive messaging from Berlin, Brussels, and Washington, alternative energy projects have yet to really take off. There is a lack of private investors willing to finance the less profitable billion-dollar projects. However, after the conclusion of the Climate Conference in Dubai, a new force of anti-fossil fuel world improvers might emerge, initiating the new year with fresh debt-funded projects. Yield hunters should, therefore, briefly bet on the losers from 2023 at the start of the year in order to ride the euphoric New Year wave. Here are a few suggestions.

Shares for 2024: TUI in travel boom, Pfizer with monster dividend, Almonty Industries receives millions from Germany
Three shares from three different sectors and countries: TUI, Pfizer, and Almonty Industries. Are they among the top performers in 2024? At least there are good reasons for a turnaround in all of them. At TUI, the turnaround seems to have already begun. Will it continue? Almonty Industries is facing a decisive year. With the help of Germany's KfW, a massive tungsten mine in South Korea is set to go into operation in 2024. If this succeeds, turnover and profits will likely multiply in the coming years. Like so many Corona winners, Pfizer shares have suffered withdrawal symptoms this year. Will the pharmaceutical giant get back on track in 2024 after hitting a ten-year low? In any case, the dividend yield of 6% is attractive.

Telecommunications and Energy with Almonty Industries, Vodafone and RWE - where is it worth starting?
At the Dubai Climate Conference COP28, 22 countries agreed to the expansion of nuclear power. A low-CO2 and highly efficient form of energy generation, albeit with some associated risks. However, the construction of nuclear power plants requires a very special metal: tungsten. This is reason enough for investors to take a closer look at the Almonty Industries share. Almonty Industries is a company that focuses on tungsten extraction and production and operates exclusively in democratically governed countries. Tungsten is used in the telecommunications industry, among others. For Vodafone, a European and African company in this segment, the raw material tungsten is essential for further growth. The Group has been in crisis to date. How far have they progressed in the turnaround? For those who focus more on energy providers than suppliers like Almonty, RWE is a must. RWE generates and trades electricity in the Asia-Pacific region, Europe and the United States. Find out here where new projects and further cash flows are opening up.

Growth Industries in Focus: Investors see potential in Defense Metals, BASF and Volkswagen shares
Investors are looking for opportunities in growing markets. Looking at industries currently requiring rare earths - such as energy, defense, electromobility, and many more - leads to the mining sector. Someone has to supply the valuable raw materials so these industries can continue growing. Defense Metals' Wicheeda project in Canada shows promising results, particularly the increase to 6.4 million tons with a TREO content of 2.86%. BASF secures EUR 124.3 million in government funding for a green hydrogen plant in Ludwigshafen, planned in collaboration with Siemens Energy. Volkswagen is facing challenges, emphasized by VW board member Thomas Schäfer, who announced tough cuts to maintain competitiveness without closing plants. Volkswagen will have to respond to change with a more agile approach, especially as China advances in electromobility.

GreenTech 2024 - The turnaround analysis: Siemens Energy, Almonty Industries, JinkoSolar and Nordex. Is the turnaround near?
The Western hemisphere is experiencing unprecedented inflation due to the impact of Corona and subsequent geopolitical conflicts. This time, it is not a boom causing prices to explode but the scarcity of raw materials, manpower and capital. The rise in interest rates is making infrastructure projects worldwide more expensive and jeopardizing the implementation of climate projects. In such an environment, GreenTech companies try to plan carefully, but they are still dependent on the support of public budgets. After sharp price corrections this year, investors can now enter the market a good 50% below the highs, but has the bottom already been reached?

Siemens Energy, Almonty Industries, BASF - Rebound underway, where is it worth getting in?
At the end of October, the mood among investors was gloomy. Many indices were under pressure and had lost more than 10% of their value. Since October 28, the mood has changed, and the markets have rallied significantly. One of the reasons is undoubtedly the Fed's interest rate pause. After three weeks on the upswing, the indices are approaching new highs. Nevertheless, there are still stocks that have not yet been able to benefit from the upward trend. We have picked out three interesting stocks that offer plenty of long-term potential.

Plug Power falters, Almonty Industries and Rheinmetall with exclamation marks
The hydrogen sector, which has been touted as having a promising future in terms of achieving climate goals, has been punished in recent months. Following Plug Power's disastrous quarterly figures, many peer group companies have now seen further sell-offs. In contrast, there are rays of hope to report from China in the photovoltaics sector, suggesting that the market leader could be on the verge of a strong turnaround.

Should you buy shares now? Plug Power, JinkoSolar, Almonty Industries
Renewable energy shares have faced a difficult few weeks. However, exciting buying opportunities always arise in such market phases. For instance, Plug Power's quarterly figures are due tomorrow. Can this trigger a breakout from the downtrend? Buying Almonty shares could soon pay off. Analysts expect the tungsten producer to massively increase its sales and profits from 2024. JinkoSolar's quarterly figures were convincing. But the bad news from SolarEdge and Co. is depressing sentiment in the industry.

These shares are right on trend - BYD, Defense Metals, Rheinmetall
After the correction of recent weeks, the DAX was able to send a positive signal for a year-end rally by exceeding the 15,000-point mark. Despite the escalating events in Gaza, the world's stock markets appear to be heading north. They are receiving a tailwind from monetary policy. This could mean the end of interest rate hikes for the time being. The badly battered companies in the technology sector, in particular, are likely to benefit from this.

14 million e-cars in 2023 alone: BYD, Standard Lithium and Defense Metals profit
In the current year, one in every five vehicles sold is expected to have an electric drive, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA). This would amount to 14 million vehicles and correspond to a growth of around 35% compared to the more than 10 million sold in 2022. Opportunities for investors lie dormant along the entire value chain of electromobility. BYD aims to capture a significant portion of these sales figures and replace Tesla as the number one player in the electric vehicle sector. While Warren Buffett is selling again, analysts are advising to buy. Standard Lithium and Defense Metals are benefiting from the rising demand for batteries. Both companies have exciting projects with compelling economic calculations and alleviate concerns about China potentially using lithium and other resources as a "weapon." So, is it time to buy?
