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.

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?

DAX on record course, hydrogen sell-off! Plug Power, First Hydrogen, Nel ASA and Daimler Truck on the test bench
The DAX is soaring because most investors expect interest rates to fall. Based on the assumption of slower growth, investors are again focusing on cyclically sensitive stocks at the turn of the year. According to the expectation curves for ECB and FED interest rates, the first downward adjustments are already expected in Q2. The key factors here are the slight fall in inflation and the central banks' desire to cushion the potential downturn. Despite all the euphoria, the desire to buy is currently bypassing the hydrogen sector. Representatives of the sector are the stock market losers of 2023. Is there still a possibility of a quick rebound in 2024? We do the math.

GreenTech 2024 - The turnaround analysis: Siemens Energy, Almonty Industries, JinkoSolar and Nordex. Is the turnaround near?
The Western hemisphere is experiencing unprecedented inflation due to the impact of Corona and subsequent geopolitical conflicts. This time, it is not a boom causing prices to explode but the scarcity of raw materials, manpower and capital. The rise in interest rates is making infrastructure projects worldwide more expensive and jeopardizing the implementation of climate projects. In such an environment, GreenTech companies try to plan carefully, but they are still dependent on the support of public budgets. After sharp price corrections this year, investors can now enter the market a good 50% below the highs, but has the bottom already been reached?

ExxonMobil, Prospera Energy, Deutsche Rohstoff AG - New opportunities in the supercycle
After a sharp rise of around 30% to an annual high of USD 95.50 for the US West Texas Intermediate, black gold entered a correction and has since lost about 20% in value. Even events like the Hamas attack on Israel and OPEC+ production cuts were unable to halt the current decline. From a technical chart perspective, this appears to be a normal correction. In the long term, oil is expected to reach new highs with the next upward movement. JP Morgan, for instance, issued an updated price target of USD 120 per barrel as recently as September.
