Which stocks to get into now? Alphabet, Amazon, Aspermont and Alibaba under the magnifying glass!

  • Technology
  • ecommerce
  • Investments

Well, things turned out differently than expected! In the fall of 2022, the spectre of crisis made the rounds again several times. The forecasters overlapped in their assessment of the economic downturn. The reason was the strong inflation and the associated loss of purchasing power. But now: Where is inflation heading in 2023? In order to answer this question, it is helpful to look back to the period after the oil crisis in 1973. As was the case then, an energy price correction is to be expected today. Gas, meanwhile, has already fallen almost unnoticed to a 17-month low. Unfortunately, the Berlin traffic lights have already covered Germany's energy needs at peak prices, which is now blowing up people's utility bills. However, falling inflation also leads to lower interest rates, boosting growth stocks in particular. We take a look at important protagonists.

Attention. Climate and Tech Rally 3.0 continues - Are Alibaba, PayPal, Alpina Holdings and TUI in the Champions League?

  • RealEstate

  • ecommerce

The year is only just six weeks old, and already big winners can be spotted on the stock market. The correction of tech stocks in 2022 prompted many investors to open a new bet in 2023, and they were broadly right. Tesla is up 100%, Alibaba is up 80%, and Infineon is at least 50% higher. The IPO of Ionos has not been convincing so far, and as is well known, what is not can still be because the share is not expensive. We go in search of the next climbers.

  • Space
  • bigdata
  • ecommerce
  • chemicals

For investors, the stock market remains a marketplace of innovations. But which company manages to expand its market power further? The ailing BASF Group relies on Big Data in the production processes of its subsidiary in the USA. A smart move, given the horrendous energy prices in Germany. Kleos Space is betting on space and, thanks to Elon Musk's SpaceX, is launching new satellites into space and, at the same time, cooperating with a data platform that was created around Airbus Defense. Amazon AWS is also betting on cooperation. The group is providing IT for cloud migration for a major US insurance company. Find out what exactly data predictions have to do with unscented body lotions here.

Rheinmetall, Saturn Oil + Gas, Amazon - These shares are growing in the face of crises

  • Defense

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

  • Camping
  • Travel
  • ecommerce

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

  • Mining
  • RareEarths
  • ecommerce

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?

  • Gold
  • Digitization

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.
