Uranium soon to be sanctioned? GoviEx Uranium, Plug Power, Nel ASA, AMS Osram - Can hydrogen solve the energy issue?
Somehow, energy policy has become very complicated. The EU sanctions coal, oil, gas and gold from Russia, but uranium remains untouched. Why? There is one who vehemently opposes this behind the scenes in Brussels: France! The German Minister of Economics, Robert Habeck, does not want to accept this. Of course, Germany no longer needs uranium for its decommissioned nuclear power plants, and the defense industry has its own sources of supply, which are not known to the public for security reasons. There is also the military coup in Niger, one of the world's major uranium-producing countries. What do investors have to pay attention to now?

Turning point in uranium: ThyssenKrupp Nucera, GoviEx Uranium, Cameco
The energy issue is a concern for industry and citizens. Consumers, in particular, are now so unsettled that they have decided to wait and see. But passivity is not a good advisor. Within industry, it has long been clear that hydrogen is the key to climate neutrality - the successful IPO of ThyssenKrupp Nucera underscores this. But there are energy alternatives: An agreement between Canada and Ukraine shines a spotlight on uranium.

Despite the heat pump - uranium is in demand as never before! Rheinmetall, GoviEx Uranium, Palantir, C3.ai
Like a prayer wheel, green political ideas are raining down on the German industrial landscape - no more nuclear energy, but instead coal and gas. Historically high energy prices are to be accepted, even though wholesale prices are already below pre-war levels again and the energy mix is supposedly fed by more than 50% renewable energy. Because no one knows what the future holds for all this, major investment decisions by industry are now going against Germany. VW is investing EUR 10 billion in Spain, and BASF is doing the same in China. Valuable jobs that will no longer exist in Germany in the foreseeable future. What should investors keep an eye on to create at least sunny prospects in their portfolios?

Bright prospects - GoviEx Uranium, Cameco, Uranium Energy
Germany is taking a unique path in the green energy mix and, after shutting down the last three reactors, is doing without nuclear energy altogether. In contrast, global nuclear power capacities are steadily increasing, with 60 reactors currently under construction. Politicians in North America are supporting the expansion with programs worth billions to support the domestic uranium sector and, at the same time, minimize dependence on Russia.

Climate protection as an investment: BASF, Commerzbank, GoviEX Uranium
Fewer CO2 emissions, more climate protection. Every DAX-listed company is committed to more sustainability in some form or another. But what is the truth of these promises? And are the supposed climate shares a sustainable investment at all? We do the check and take a detailed look at three exciting stocks from different sectors and regions.

Heat pump, wind power and solar energy, is this the electricity mix of the future? E.ON, Myriad Uranium and ThyssenKrupp in focus
Germany is rapidly moving away from fossil fuels and has removed nuclear power from its energy mix. This makes us the forerunner of a new-thinking society that wants to switch energy production entirely to renewable sources. But there are a few problems because, by abandoning nuclear power, we are forced to extend the lifetimes of coal and natural gas-fired power plants. From a CO2 point of view, this is madness, and there is another point: the supposedly more environmentally friendly versions of energy production, such as wind or solar power, are not nearly as environmentally friendly as advertised by politicians because of current production practices. We will analyze these aspects objectively and in more detail.

Lose the German goggles and profit? Plug Power, Myriad Uranium, RWE
Drought in southern Spain, gloomy weather in Germany - that climate change will also make itself felt in 2023 is already apparent now, at the beginning of May. In view of climate change, some authors are already calling for an end to the pursuit of growth. But is that worth striving for, and can it even be implemented in liberal democracies? We shed light on the limits of cuts and where technology could make climate protection possible without cuts.

Myriad Uranium, E.ON, RWE - What about our energy security?
Since April 15, 2023, nuclear energy has no longer been produced in Germany. The last 3 power plants were taken off the grid. Only time will tell whether this decision was sensible. At the end of last year, 422 reactors were operating worldwide, and 57 nuclear power plants were under construction, according to the World Nuclear Industry Status Report. Another 62 plants are in the planning stage. Demand for uranium has increased, and the price of uranium has climbed accordingly. Today we look at one uranium company and see what the German utilities are doing.

Outstanding long-term opportunities - Plug Power, Myriad Uranium, JinkoSolar
Hydrogen, photovoltaics and nuclear power are three promising options for achieving a CO2-free energy supply. Hydrogen can be used as a fuel and as energy storage. Photovoltaic enables the direct conversion of sunlight into electricity, and nuclear energy provides a reliable and emission-free energy source. Despite the outstanding long-term opportunities, companies in these sectors have been in a correction on the stock market for months. For many, however, the bottom has now been reached.

Nuclear Power - No Thanks! E.ON, GoviEx Uranium, BASF - Questionable energy transition made in Berlin
Renewable energies are in focus! All well and good - Germany is repositioning itself. The focus is to be on hydropower, wind and solar energy. But these energy sources have little baseload capacity because hydroelectric power plants use "cheap" night electricity to pump water uphill, and reliable wind is probably only available offshore and not in the middle of Saxony. That brings us to the sun: On average, in our latitudes, it shines for about 146 hours a month, but in Alicante, it is 349 hours. Of course, large rooftop systems pay off for well-located households and one's e-mobile, but we cannot get a nationwide basic supply going with them. In the supply crisis, Berlin is relying on coal and gas power generation for now, but the much-touted climate neutrality is likely to be postponed to the next millennium. What should investors now keep an eye on?
