Manuka Resources starts gold production. Can Varta and K+S manage the turnaround?
On March 22, all eyes were on the FED decision. Will the balancing act between fighting inflation and stabilizing the banking system succeed? The collapse of Silicon Valley Bank and the difficulties of Credit Suisse have caused plenty of uncertainty. The result has been significant premiums in the price of gold and cryptocurrencies as people try to protect their money. But regardless of the interest rate decision, there is interesting news on companies that have been under pressure recently and are waiting for a turnaround. We take a look at three of those candidates today.

Interest roller coaster! This is how you profit! K+S, Saturn Oil + Gas, Deutsche Telekom
Interest rates will remain high for longer - that was the expectation last week. After two bank failures, interest rate expectations have recently collapsed. Some investors in the USA are expecting the first interest rate cuts as early as June. Whether these scenarios are set in stone and what they mean for investors - we provide an analysis using three stocks as examples.

Raw materials revolution from Africa: K+S, Globex Mining, Freyr Battery
Lithium, cobalt or even manganese - what reads like the list of ingredients for the mobility and energy revolution is available in abundance in Africa. However, China has been a major player in Africa for years and was already investing heavily when Europe was still seeing golden times for combustion engines. In the meantime, however, that has changed: As Handelsblatt reports, more and more African countries want to do their own thing regarding raw materials and turn from exporters into processors - for the countries of Europe, this is an opportunity.

K+S, Tocvan Ventures, Rock Tech Lithium - Shares with doubling potential
On February 22, the meeting of the US Federal Reserve FED will take place. The results are eagerly awaited, as economic data have recently been mixed and difficult to interpret. The Consumer Confidence Index recently climbed significantly. However, since inflation has fallen less than expected, this could point to another interest rate hike. Rising interest rates are bad for the equity markets, as some investors may prefer to put their money into US government bonds. Regardless of the news, some stocks offer great potential at current levels. We take a closer look at three of these stocks today.

Outperformer stocks in 2023? BioNTech, Steinhoff, Saturn Oil + Gas, K+S
Will energy stocks continue to be outperformers in 2023? In any case, in 2022, MSCI World Energy clearly outperformed MSCI World. In the case of individual stocks, Shell, for example, has gained over 45% in the current year. Jefferies recommends the stock as a buy with a target price of GPX 3100 (pence). Warren Buffett has also invested billions in the oil sector in 2022. Chevron and Occidental Petroleum are among Berkshire Hathaway's seven largest holdings. Energy, after all, is likely to be in demand in 2023. Those looking to bet on a laggard should look at Saturn Oil & Gas. The Canadian oil producer faces a milestone in 2023, and analysts see over 200% upside potential. BioNTech enters the new year with solid newsflow. And what is Steinhoff doing after the horror news?

K+S, Defense Metals, RWE - Profiting from stocks that fight shortcomings
The first supply chain problems occurred during the Corona Pandemic. With the outbreak of the Ukraine conflict, further deficiencies of Western countries were exposed. It has been known for a long time that the US and Europe are dependent on raw materials and energy from Russia and China. The Middle Kingdom, in particular, already has a monopoly on critical raw materials such as rare earths and tungsten. There has been a minor trade war between the US and China for some time now. Russia has supplied both Europe and the US with cheap energy. Now in times of tension, the dependencies are coming out in the open. So today, we look at three stocks that can combat the shortage.

K+S, Saturn Oil + Gas, Aurora Cannabis - Multiplication candidates
Uncertainties concerning the global geopolitical situation and concerns about a further cooling of the economy with simultaneous rising inflation have caused shares and other asset classes, such as commodities and precious metals, to correct significantly in recent months. With the publication of the quarterly figures, the negative share development of many companies is confirmed with the latest values. However, there are also positive surprises, which have the chance of a significant outperformance due to their presented figures and the positive outlook.

Barrick Gold, Desert Gold, K+S - Undervalued shares
The stock market is not always rational. Depending on the market phase, private investors in particular often act irrationally. If all stocks are rising, the fear of missing something comes up and investors buy, although they would be better off waiting for a setback. If the indices go down, many investors sell near the lows, even though they have quality stocks in their portfolio. As a smart investor, one should be like Buffet and buy when others panic. The last few months have been difficult in the stock market, and there have been some downward exaggerations. So today, we look at three companies that have been sold off recently but have good assets.

K+S, Barsele Minerals, Barrick Gold - Are the good times coming after the bad?
While the gold price is under pressure from the strong US dollar and rising interest rates, European fertilizer producers are struggling with high gas prices, representing almost 90% of variable costs in production. However, the first positive trends can be observed in both markets. In gold, the critical support level of USD 1620 has held, and there, the market bounced dynamically upwards. Fertilizer prices rose in September in almost all segments. Reason enough to take a closer look at two gold companies and the German fertilizer producer K+S.

Barsele Minerals, K+S, BYD - Sweden as a crisis winner?
Due to the explosions in the Baltic Sea pipelines Nord Stream 1 and 2, a switch to other energy sources is inevitable, especially for German industry. Fertilizer producer K+S, based in Kassel, is affected by this. The situation is different with Barsele Minerals. The Canadian company is exploring large gold areas in sunny Sweden and plans to mine up to 3.5 million ounces of the precious metal in the future. Electric car and battery manufacturer BYD, on the other hand, has sufficient resources in its home country of China and is preparing to make the leap into the European market. Find out here which shares are now defying the crisis.
