Nel ASA, dynaCERT, Daimler Truck - Into the future with hydrogen
Hydrogen is a promising energy carrier for the future that can be produced from renewable sources such as green electricity. Hydrogen can be used in various sectors such as industry, heating, or transportation to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and increase energy security. Transport, in particular, emits a lot of emissions, making it a crucial focal point for action. The German federal government has already adopted a national hydrogen strategy to promote the development and use of hydrogen. There are similar efforts in the US and Europe. We look at three companies harnessing the power of hydrogen.

Hydrogen scams and hard facts: Nikola, Plug Power, First Hydrogen
The somewhat macabre story behind a dead cat bounce is quickly explained: When a stock rises rapidly after a long sell-off, investors from the bear camp often refer to it as a dead cat bounce. The underlying idea is the somewhat tongue-in-cheek saying that even a dead cat would bounce off the ground if dropped from a great height. The best example of such a dead cat bounce is currently shown by the share of the hydrogen specialist Nikola. While investors are discussing the Company from the US, a success story is emerging in the background around a second-tier company.

Plug Power, dynaCERT, Varta - Optimistic about the future
Amid global efforts to meet climate targets, renewable energy has established itself as the centerpiece of the energy transition. Since the beginning of the decade, listed companies in this sector have felt a tailwind fueled by billions in subsidies from policymakers. But the current horizon is cloudy. Unexpected delays and deep red figures dominate the scene. Nevertheless, drastically lower market valuations could open the door to potential long-term returns for investors.

Breakthroughs in the hydrogen sector - Nikola, First Hydrogen, Plug Power
Just last week, the German cabinet approved the update of the National Hydrogen Strategy from 2020, which is now being further developed to meet the increased level of ambition in climate protection and the new challenges in the energy market. Hydrogen is seen as the missing piece of the energy transition puzzle, and not just for Germany. Considerable progress has been made in the development of vehicles powered by hydrogen and fuel cells. At the same time, many innovative companies from this sector appear promising in the long term after the correction.

dynaCERT, BASF, Daimler Truck AG: Investors pounce on logistics stocks, new opportunities and profit potentials
dynaCERT is developing a patented technology that generates hydrogen and oxygen on demand and delivers them through the air intake system to improve combustion and carbon emissions in various diesel engines. The Company has sold 93 HydraGEN™ units to a logistics company in Guyana to support the country's ambitious goal to reduce CO₂ emissions by 70% by 2030. BASF has cut its investment budget amid a global downturn to preserve cash. Amid takeover rumors from chemical company Covestro, BASF CEO Martin Brudermüller calls for support from the German government to improve the competitiveness of European chemical companies. Daimler Truck has launched a share buyback program in which up to 82.3 million shares may be repurchased. The Company expects a significant increase in profits with higher revenue and sales.

New hydrogen hype! More than 100% possible with Plug Power, dynaCERT, ThyssenKrupp Nucera and Nel ASA
While the use of wind and solar has long been established, this step is still to come for hydrogen. The EU's recent decision to produce around 20 million metric tons of the highly flammable fuel by the year 2030 is a major step forward. The aim is to replace natural gas supplies from Russia. This move is expected to help the new energy source establish itself more rapidly within the EU. Currently, 50 billion cubic meters of natural gas are used in Europe to produce so-called grey hydrogen. According to recent studies, a rapid switch to green hydrogen would make it possible to replace around 12% of gas consumption by 2030. Quite impressive! Which stocks will benefit from the approaching boom?

dynaCERT, PayPal, Alibaba - Innovations and old enmities driving growth in digital payment services
Canadian company dynaCERT produces and sells carbon emissions reduction technologies. Working with partner Cipher Neutron, dynaCERT is now in talks with the University of Alberta to advance research projects in green hydrogen technology. Late revenge looms in California. After Elon Musk unceremoniously renamed Twitter to x.com, old feuds from the PayPal era could flare up, which may not bode well for the digital payment service. Meanwhile, Alibaba founder Jack Ma is also planning the next coup in the fintech space with his Ant Group.

Plug Power, First Hydrogen, Daimler Truck - Bringing tomorrow's winners into the portfolio today
The energy transition has only just begun. The farewell to fossil fuels is a done deal. Alongside electrification, green hydrogen is expected to play a crucial role in the energy of the future, generated from renewable sources such as wind and solar power. Here, the infrastructure of tomorrow needs to be planned and implemented today. On July 12, the German transmission system operators presented their plan for a hydrogen network for Germany that is to cover a length of 11,200 km. In addition to connecting industrial sites, the plan also calls for the creation of a charging infrastructure for vehicles, as the transportation industry is primarily responsible for CO2 emissions. Investors who position themselves correctly early can profit from the upcoming hydrogen boom.

The hour of the problem solvers: BASF, BYD, dynaCERT
The transformation of industry is not proceeding smoothly. The best example is the recent profit warning from the chemical group BASF. Earlier, Lanxess and the Swiss company Clariant also revised their forecasts. The reason: The economic recovery in the second half of the year is likely to be slower than previously assumed. When the global economy falters, chemical companies are among the first to feel the effects - they produce many important basic materials and are linked to many other industries. Although BASF already sees demand for basic chemicals at a low level that is not expected to decline further, there are no signs of any recovery momentum either.

Top news: Volkswagen with problems, Plug Power and dynaCERT profit
Is the electric motor stuttering at Volkswagen? Recent reports indicate that it is. Prices for the ID.3 have been massively reduced in China, and most recently, Handelsblatt reported on sales problems for the Wolfsburg-based company's electric models in Europe. In the hydrogen sector, however, the mood has improved considerably. BloombergNEF predicts significant economies of scale for the industry, and the successful IPO of ThyssenKrupp Nucera illustrates investor interest. Pure-play Plug Power and newcomer dynaCERT can also benefit from this. dynaCERT is convincing with a positive newsflow, and one customer believes in a revolution. Analysts see 30% share price potential for Plug Power.
