Can you believe it? Stock market darling BYD plunges, while D-Wave, 123fahrschule and Metaplanet go into express mode!
Bull mode every day? While 30-year government bonds in the US have climbed to the magical 5% yield mark, stock markets are rising to new highs almost daily. However, the focus is no longer on the NASDAQ but on the DAX 40 index - the reason: US President Donald Trump's policies are causing international caution toward the formerly close ally. Tariffs are limiting growth, and tourism is collapsing, weakening the US dollar and prompting fund managers worldwide to look for other investment opportunities. Rising interest rates and a growing budget deficit could thus become economic dynamite for the promised land. In contrast, an increase in investment rates has been observed in Europe since the beginning of the year, with investors investing in digitalization and infrastructure following generous public investment decisions. Where do the opportunities and risks lie?

Up to 1500% with high tech and artificial intelligence – Incredible price movements at Evotec, NetraMark Holdings, and D-Wave
Artificial intelligence can now be found in all sectors of the economy. Search processes, validations, and historical comparisons now take place in a matter of seconds, and a dramatic leap in productivity is on the horizon. The capital markets have set themselves the task of evaluating these future processes. This is no easy task, as most topics cannot be viewed in isolation. Last week, renewed tariff threats led to a short-term price correction. These losses had to be offset yesterday, with political denials from the US sending share prices skyrocketing again. Under intense pressure, investors now have to decide whether investments promise short- or medium-term success. We use three examples to show how challenging this has become. Where are the opportunities and risks?

No Trump frustration with 123fahrschule and Mutares, but caution is advised with defense stocks such as RENK, Hensoldt, and Steyr!
The daily news is driving stock market activity. After a rollercoaster ride caused by Trump, popular tech stocks such as the Magnificent 7 are now down a good 20%. In the case of Nvidia, the stock is now USD 50 below its peak. For many, this is an opportunity to finally take a breather and think about the rest of the stock market year. Small caps such as the successful 123fahrschule continue to work on their growth programs, and Mutares is making good progress with its investments. The hot defense stocks RENK and Hensoldt appear somewhat overpriced. Those who want to generate returns now must be very selective and invest in specialties. After gains of just under 10% per annum, global ETF savers will likely take a break from returns in 2025. In the meantime, flexible investors will come out on top. Here are a few ideas.

Doubling possible: Using artificial intelligence! Deutsche Telekom, NetraMark Holdings, Kontron, and 1&1
Combining artificial intelligence (AI) and 5G opens up new possibilities in various areas. The strengths of 5G, such as high speed, low latency, and large network capacity, perfectly complement the capabilities of AI. The goal is to recognize complex patterns, automate processes, and make decisions in real time. AI has long since found its place in medicine and pharmaceutical development. High-tech and telecom companies are working on many promising topics here. For some stocks, this is the starting signal for a higher valuation. We highlight some of the opportunities.

Stocks in RALLY MODE: Deutz, Nel ASA with momentum! MiMedia taps into huge revenue potential with Walmart!
MiMedia has huge revenue potential and a favorable valuation. The cloud insider tip offers an exciting entry opportunity in Latin America after its partnership with Walmart. After a strong price increase at the turn of the year, the share is currently moving sideways – for now. Deutz's stock has shown how quickly a share price can rise in recent weeks. However, after the approximately 40% rally, the air is getting thinner, at least when looking at the figures for 2024. However, analysts think further price gains are possible. Nel has shown signs of life. The beleaguered hydrogen pioneer has landed a new major shareholder in Samsung and recently secured a major contract. Who will continue the rally?

Nel ASA, Almonty Industries, Tencent – Merz and Trump as trend accelerators
The past stock market week was quite a rollercoaster. In addition to the approval of the billion-euro package by the Bundesrat and Bundestag, which helped the DAX to reach new highs at times, the activities of the old and new US President Donald Trump also caused high volatility on the global stock markets. In particular, defense stocks such as Rheinmetall, Steyr, and Deutz, as well as companies that produce the raw materials needed for rearmament, benefited and could continue their rally.

After the NASDAQ correction – Hightech on the rebound: Palantir, Amazon, MiMedia, SMCI, and Intel on the rise
The NASDAQ correction was sharp and brief, with a 15% drop from 22,200 to 19,100 in just 4 weeks. In the context of a normal consolidation, that might be enough to bring the heavily overbought tech stocks back to normal levels. Unfortunately, however, there are also valid fundamental reasons that can be traced back to the official chaos of the new US President, Donald Trump. He is making wild tariff demands and withdrawing key resources from all international partnerships. This departure from normal political behavior could have a much more significant impact on the stock market, as global trade relations are faltering, while inflation and currency devaluation continue. Which tech stocks should be considered now?

Big Pharma's billion-dollar markets under pressure – NetraMark as the key for Bayer and Novo Nordisk?
In 2025, the pharmaceutical market faces significant challenges, including rising costs and regulatory hurdles. In this environment, companies like NetraMark, Bayer, and Novo Nordisk could make a significant difference through innovative solutions and strategic partnerships. NetraMark, a Canadian HealthTech company, is revolutionizing clinical trials with AI technology, which could be particularly beneficial in the areas of research into active ingredients for the central nervous system and in oncology. These are currently the biggest dropouts in industry. NetraMark's technology could increase the efficiency of drug development and open up new opportunities for investors. Bayer is focusing on targeted therapies in precision oncology and has a promising drug in development that specifically targets an overarching mutation in various cancers. Novo Nordisk is cementing its reputation as an innovator in the fight against chronic obesity, particularly with its successor to the obesity drug CagriSema. The Phase III REDEFINE 2 study achieved its primary objective, although the results fell short of high expectations. A closer look is now warranted.

Eutelsat, MiMedia, Xiaomi – The infrastructure for the networking markets of the future, worth billions
Millions of people in emerging markets are gaining access to digital markets – a potential of great importance to investors. The French satellite communications company Eutelsat is realizing this with its satellites such as EUTELSAT KONNECT, which bring broadband internet to remote regions of Africa and the Middle East, opening up billion-dollar markets. Eutelsat is particularly active in Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and Asia. The software company MiMedia is profiting from this connectivity by providing its cloud platform on Android smartphones. The software is the small tile for your users' pictures on the smartphone, preinstalled upon activation. MiMedia achieves this implementation through partnerships such as with América Móvil, one of the largest telecommunications providers in LATAM. MiMedia, with roots in New York City, is already expanding in Africa, reaching millions of users. The Chinese tech company Xiaomi complements this with affordable hardware: With 43.1 million smartphones shipped in Q3 2024 and the new Xiaomi 15 series, it is tapping into global markets, seamlessly integrated into cloud and satellite networks. Together, they are creating an infrastructure that generates billions of dollars in revenue in high-growth regions.
