BYD, Defense Metals, Rheinmetall - Strategic breakthroughs open up new opportunities
Rare earth metals play a crucial role in many modern technologies, especially in electromobility and the defense industry. Their unique properties make them irreplaceable for specific applications. Demand is increasing dramatically due to ambitious climate targets and the rearmament that has occurred since the start of the war in Ukraine. China holds a quasi-monopoly on the entire value chain. In Western countries, there is a lack of alternatives to escape dependence on the Middle Kingdom.

Rheinmetall, Globex Mining and Hochtief with trend-setting impulses
The last week of January promises further excitement on the global stock markets.

Hydrogen sell-off: Invest now in high-tech blockbusters! Nel ASA, Defense Metals, AMD, Rheinmetall
Two important trends are emerging after 3 trading weeks on the stock market in 2024. The hydrogen sector is experiencing the long-awaited sell-off, while AI-related high-tech stocks are making new highs every day. Last week, the NASDAQ 100 Index reached a new all-time high of 17,340 points. Stocks such as Microsoft, Nvidia, Supermicro and AMD are moving upward daily with massive turnover. As chips also require a lot of strategic metals, the rare earth region of Wicheeda in Canada has also attracted media attention. As a result, the explorer Defense Metals has seen a significant increase in stock market turnover. No surprise: industrialized countries are looking for safe countries of origin for indispensable metals. Where are the opportunities for investors?

Almonty Industries, Volkswagen, Rheinmetall: Which share will take off in 2024?
The new year has barely begun, and investors are looking for the winning stocks for the coming year. Investors should keep an eye on the critical raw material tungsten, which Almonty Industries produces. There is significant dependence on China and Russia in this sector. The areas of application are diverse and range from electric cars, which Volkswagen builds, to medical products, metal alloys, industrial applications, electronic devices and the defense industry, where Rheinmetall operates. In times of increasing conflicts and escalating trade disputes between the US and China, essential resources such as tungsten are increasingly coming to the fore. We look at which of the three shares could take off in 2024.

Siemens Energy, Defense Metals, Rheinmetall - Rare earths as a risk factor
The scarcity of and access to rare earths has become a major global concern. China plays a decisive role in the production of rare earths, as the country mines 60% of all rare earths worldwide and processes 85% of them. After the US banned the export of AI chips, China considered banning the export of rare earth metals. These trade blockades from both sides are causing tensions in international trade relations and concerns about supply bottlenecks. Rare earths play an important role in wind power, armaments, medicine, electromobility and the electronics industry. As an investor, one should be aware of these risks.

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.

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.

Rheinmetall, Power Nickel, Nio - The situation is getting critical
The further escalating conflicts in Ukraine and Israel, as well as tensions in the economic relations of global powers, are placing enormous strain on global supply chains. China's dominance in product manufacturing is becoming increasingly apparent, which must be minimized in the future. Last week, for example, the Middle Kingdom said it will require export licenses for some graphite products to protect national security, surprising everyone with another attempt to control supplies of critical minerals.

Strategic metals, rare and in demand! Rheinmetall, Almonty Industries, JinkoSolar
We all know that the electrification of mobility and the energy transition is unstoppable. At the same time, there are numerous trouble spots in this world that make reliable access to such important metals difficult and threaten supply chains. The supply of essential raw materials has, therefore, long since become a matter for governments, while private alliances that can be terminated at any time appear too uncertain. We examine companies that are doing well in this environment and offer one or two solutions to the problem. For investors, this means promising returns!
