dynaCERT, Volkswagen, Mercedes-Benz - Renewable energies in focus, feasibility and speed are key
This year's international climate conference, "COP28", is coming to an end with a strong statement. For the first time, the participating nations have committed themselves in writing to developing their energy resources away from fossil fuels and towards renewable energies. Host country Dubai, under the patronage of Sultan Al Jaber, achieved consensus among all participating countries. According to the agreement, countries are called upon to contribute to a global transition rather than being directly forced to implement this change independently. A company like dynaCERT, which has been campaigning for years for a CO₂-reducing hybrid solution to power diesel trucks in the logistics sector, could be on the verge of a breakthrough. The Company has already raised CAD 2.0 million in gross proceeds from an ongoing private placement, which it will now use to expand its technology. Meanwhile, Volkswagen plans to hire around 3,000 engineers in China to keep pace in the EV market. Mercedes-Benz, meanwhile, is expanding its offering in Dubai with an unusual move to maximize profits...

Climate conference and Venice turns green! Oil remains in demand; goodbye hydrogen? Nel ASA, Prospera Energy and Plug Power in Focus
Too little, too slow, too half-hearted! Climate activists in Italy have drawn attention to themselves with a spectacular campaign. The "Extinction Rebellion" group members painted the famous Grand Canal in Venice fluorescent green. Some activists abseiled from the Rialto Bridge over the central canal of the northern Italian lagoon city on Saturday afternoon and poured dye into the water. Their action was intended to protest against the "ridiculous progress" made at the COP28 World Climate Conference in Dubai. "We are tired, we have had enough of being taken for fools by our governments and knowing that our future is in danger while politicians do nothing," they said in a statement to the press. How do we tackle the energy issues of the future? A look at selected energy stocks paints a clear picture.

Hensoldt, Defense Metals, RWE - Important milestones
Following the recent year-end rally on the world's stock markets, the chances of further price gains are good. Even in the last month of an eventful stock market year, plenty of activity remains.

Infineon, First Hydrogen, Plug Power - Opportunities upon opportunities in decarbonization
Once again, 2023 was a stock market year to forget for companies in the renewable energy sector. Share price falls of around 70% for market-leading companies were the rule rather than the exception. However, decarbonization is underway, demand is rising, and the potential is huge. As a result, there are tremendous long-term opportunities for disproportionately high share price gains in selected stocks.

Snow chaos and climate madness, who is playing in the Premier League of the energy transition? Nel ASA, Power Nickel and Plug Power under the microscope
Snow chaos and new record highs. While the DAX 40 demonstrates itself as the world's best blue-chip index, the German economy is currently navigating downward. It is not the earnings outlook that is presently driving share prices but the hope of lower interest rates. Meanwhile, the endless climate debates in Dubai continue. Among realists, however, there must be fears that the local oil lobby will not let a German know-it-all put a stop to the lavish margins with fossil fuels. There will, at least, be a friendly Arab nod to the 2050 climate goals and exclusive indulgence for the high-ranking German delegation. Whether this justifies federal expenditure of more than EUR 50 million is something we will leave uncommented. More important is a look at the top titles of the upcoming energy transition - where is the next 100 percenter lurking?

Siemens Energy, Defense Metals, Rheinmetall - Rare earths as a risk factor
The scarcity of and access to rare earths has become a major global concern. China plays a decisive role in the production of rare earths, as the country mines 60% of all rare earths worldwide and processes 85% of them. After the US banned the export of AI chips, China considered banning the export of rare earth metals. These trade blockades from both sides are causing tensions in international trade relations and concerns about supply bottlenecks. Rare earths play an important role in wind power, armaments, medicine, electromobility and the electronics industry. As an investor, one should be aware of these risks.

More than 30% with Plug Power, Siemens Energy, and Globex Mining! What is next?
Is the Plug Power share about to triple? Despite being one of the disappointments of 2023 along with Siemens Energy, both shares have risen in recent days. And analysts see further upside potential. The price target for the hydrogen specialist, in particular, is surprising. On the other hand, Globex Mining is performing well operationally throughout 2023. The shares of the mining incubator from North America have gained over 30% in value this year, outperforming commodity giants such as Barrick Gold. The Canadians' recent transaction shows that the business model has potential and is appealing to investors.

COP28 Climate Summit in Dubai boosts uranium shares! Cameco, GoviEx Uranium, Siemens Energy and E.ON in focus
With a raised finger, Chancellor Scholz calls for a global shift away from fossil fuels in Dubai. Climate change remains "the great global challenge of our time". He is thus appealing to the almost 200 countries, which are holding energetic consultations until mid-December, to join in the energy transition formulated in Germany. Specifically, he proposed an agreement on two binding targets that are already consensus among the industrialized countries of the G20: One is to triple the expansion of renewable energy, and the other is to double energy efficiency - both by the year 2030. So far, more than 110 countries have agreed to expand green energy production at this rate. However, there is also the opposing party: around 20 countries want to almost triple their investment in nuclear energy. Where are the winners hiding?

Energy market in transition: RWE, Klimat X and FREYR Battery - Which share offers sustainable price gains?
Numerous investment opportunities are emerging in the energy market. Germany's largest electricity producer, RWE, for example, will invest EUR 55 billion in renewable energies and environmentally friendly technologies such as green hydrogen by 2030. Klimat X focuses on CO₂ certificates, allowing renowned companies to become actively involved in environmental protection. It combines ecological initiatives with economic opportunities through the renaturation of forests and mangrove groves in Sierra Leone and Mexico. Companies become tree sponsors while nature does its work. At the same time, FREYR Battery in Norway is automating its production facility and further expanding its central location in the US. Find out how these pioneering developments are shaping the environmentally friendly future of the energy sector.

Sell Varta shares? Positive news from JinkoSolar and Manuka Resources
Is the Varta share price party over again? The shares of the former German battery darling have gained around 30% in value over the past six months. But now analysts are advising to sell. JinkoSolar's management had hoped for more buying when it announced the dividend at the end of September. While this was not the case, shareholders can at least look forward to a payout next week. Manuka Resources is currently managing the balancing act between positive cash flows from the sale of gold and investments in resource expansion. The Company is sitting on another potential "treasure" with a project for battery metals. Is the share undervalued?
