Rheinmetall, Saturn Oil + Gas, Amazon - These shares are growing in the face of crises
Tech groups like Amazon are laying off 10,000 employees to get back on track. Shareholders will be happy, and Amazon's Alexa department employees should quickly sign up with Indeed. The department is posting the biggest losses in 2022. Rheinmetall AG is off to a good start through the crisis. Thanks to the "ring swap" deal, the Düsseldorf-based company is now supplying the Greeks with fresh tanks. In turn, the Greeks give their Soviet-designed tanks to Ukraine's soldiers. Rheinmetall's share price has risen by 127.14% since the beginning of the year. Also among the crisis winners is Saturn Oil & Gas. With its numerous active oil drilling projects, investors have a broadly diversified portfolio at their disposal.

BioNTech, Meta Materials, and Amazon - Industry leaders belong in the portfolio
In 2021, the stock market world was still in order - it had been going nowhere but up for years. That was the peak of the stock hype, and many top dogs in their industries were very expensive from a fundamental point of view. That has changed significantly this year. Due to the Ukraine conflict, rising interest rates and ever-higher inflation, many industry leaders had to make significant losses. Even a drop of 50% was not uncommon. Yet the long-term outlook is good. Now that the stock market is slowly regaining momentum, it is worth taking a look at three companies that are leaders in their field.

Study shows how young people consume - TUI, Pathfinder Ventures, Amazon
Back in the 1980s, sunburn, cheese hedgehogs and bocce ball on the beach were simply part of the package for vacationers. Today, a vacation can be a bit more than that. Individual experiences and new cultures are in demand. As a study by the payment provider Klarna shows, young people, in particular, save significantly more than older generations in relation to their income. The most common savings goals are vacations, housing and pensions. Reason enough to take a closer look at some consumer stocks and their prospects.

Defense Metals, Alibaba, adidas - Which investments are valuable now
World power China is on everyone's lips: just recently, the term of the head of state Xi Jingping was extended for another five years for the third time in a row. China's flagship technology company, Alibaba, is slipping this week in terms of share price below the issue value at its IPO in 2014, with investors looking for alternatives in the face of the world power's increasing monopolization in global markets. Rare earths, for example, are high on the list of precious commodities when it comes to renewable energy production. The Canadian mineral explorer Defense Metals can be a successful alternative to align investments strategically. Sporting goods manufacturer adidas seems to be without a strategy at the moment. The stock is down 17% this week, and the Company is quite late in parting ways with scandalous rapper Kanye West. The rapper attracted more than unwelcome attention with his anti-Semitic comments. We look at where investments are now turning into real winners.

Amazon, Alphabet, Viva Gold Corporation - Is data really the new gold?
Internet giants like Amazon and Alphabet are betting on digital care. One Medical is the latest acquisition of the e-commerce group. The digital health company is changing hands for USD 3.9 billion, and with it, all the user data that has been created up to that point. Specifically, this is healthcare data. Is data the new gold? With volatile markets and runaway inflation, some calm in the portfolio from real gold can be beneficial. Exploration companies like Viva Gold Corporation are betting on working in the field with digital support. Recent drilling at the Tonopah project in western Nevada has been promising. Alphabet investors, on the other hand, had to take the latest quarterly figures with a slight disappointment. While things are moving forward in the cloud business, the group's growth has been one of the slowest.

BASF, Amazon, Barsele Minerals - Crisis-proof investments
Some treasures in Europe and neighboring countries offer real pearls of return for investors. A look at the Scandinavian north is worth its weight in gold and can bring calm to the portfolio. BASF has also earned some calm - the chemical giant warns of a bumpy second half and is actively reshaping its energy supply. While tech stocks continue to lose ground, Amazon can rejoice: with Prime Day coming soon, 200 million subscribers in 21 countries will be encouraged to buy bargains. What is worthwhile now as an investment for which risk awareness?

Casino shares! Opportunities at Alibaba and Kleos Space, sell-off at Uniper and TeamViewer
No one would have thought that a warlike conflict in Eastern Europe could mutate into a medium-term threat to Western prosperity. It can! The dependence on fossil energy is still far too strong in the European economies to manage without regular supplies from the East. As a result, since the end of February, the markets have been extremely nervous, as seen from the volatility indices, which yesterday were close to 30. The interpretation is: to expect about 30% volatility in the stock market within the next 12 months. Nobody would mind if it would swing exceptionally upward. Below are a few sparkling investment ideas.

Alibaba, Almonty Industries, Shell - Shares with conspicuous strength in the crisis
The past week was tough for many investors. First, the ECB declared on Wednesday to raise interest rates, and on Friday, it was announced that the inflation rate in the US rose to 8.6% in May. As a result of these events, the markets collapsed and a number of blue chips suffered, in some cases significantly. But even in the weak phases, some shares buck the general market trend, which is a clear sign of strength. When the market as a whole turns around, it is precisely these stocks that often benefit disproportionately. We have picked out three companies that have held up well in the falling market environment and look closely at their future prospects.

Split fantasy: Amazon, Aspermont, Alibaba, Tencent - After the sell-off is before the rally!
In bull market movements, shares become more and more expensive. Private small investors simply cannot afford an Amazon share at USD 3,000 and stay away as investors. US technology stocks, therefore, often use a trick: The SPLIT! In the case of Amazon, the investor receives a further 19 shares booked into the securities account in addition to a share held. In purely arithmetical terms, this does not make the Company cheaper, but in purely visual terms, the value is 95% cheaper than before the split. In most cases, the share price rises again very quickly because smaller tranches can now be transacted on the stock exchange again. But it is not always like this. In this context, we are looking at other tech titles with more than 100% potential.
