Nel ASA, Erin Ventures, NIO - Using setbacks as long-term opportunities
Since Russia invaded Ukraine, stock markets have corrected sharply, and volatilities have increased significantly. The S&P 500 Volatility Index VIX, for example, rose from under 20 to a high of over 35 points. Individual stocks are also still subject to high fluctuations, with market leaders in promising future-oriented sectors such as hydrogen fuel cell technology, photovoltaics and wind energy losing more than 50%. In such market phases, an anticyclical entry can represent a particularly worthwhile investment. A historic opportunity could also present itself in a critical commodity.

Barrick Gold, Scottie Resources, Yamana Gold: Not only gold shines here
Quite a few market observers expect commodities to be at the beginning of a new supercycle. Recent inflation data also suggests that commodity prices will continue to rise. According to some observers, if inflation picks up speed in times of global lockdowns, this must be a significant signal for the post-crisis period. Indeed, the world is poised for a major return to normalcy in the second half of 2021. We highlight stocks that already look promising given this starting point.

Barrick Gold, Deutsche Rohstoff AG, K+S: Beating inflation by a whisker
Yesterday, consumer prices in Germany rose more sharply than at any time since the beginning of the pandemic: inflation climbed by a whopping 1.3% year-on-year in February. Market observers see this figure as an indication that inflation could become an issue again in the medium term. There are several approaches to hedge against inflation. In addition to investments in commodities, equities are another option. Commodity stocks combine the best of both worlds. We present three stocks.

Deutsche Rohstoff, Glencore, Standard Lithium - Millennial Lithium: Find the best commodity stocks!
Metal prices are going through the roof! Since it is clear that e-mobility and decentralized electricity storage have become the top investment topics of the coming years, metal prices are flying. Nickel and copper reached new 5-year highs of USD 18,900 and USD 8,440, respectively. Driven by unexpected industrial demand, mines are also running at top speed. The reason is undoubtedly the underestimation of the fundamental economic trend by market participants, and there is no sign of cooling in the technology-driven manufacturing companies despite the pandemic. Here we take a look at some of the winners of this trend.
