Energy chaos? Not at all! Siemens Energy, ThyssenKrupp, Saturn Oil + Gas
The world is changing - and German companies are at the forefront. Siemens Energy could partner with the world's largest solar company, Longi, in its planned plant in Germany. ThyssenKrupp wants to take off with its hydrogen subsidiary Nucera and has high hopes of an IPO before the summer break. But there are also problems: Siemens Energy's share price crashed recently due to issues at the wind energy subsidiary. We look at how investors can best navigate the green revolution.

Solar and wind instead of oil and gas - Shell, Saturn Oil + Gas, Lanxess: Germany focuses on decarbonization!
International energy policy is more disparate than ever. While the US, Canada, China, India, South America and Russia focus on exploiting their abundant fossil reserves, resource-poor countries like Germany and select European states are embracing renewable energies. This decision results from an existing shortage or is imposed in the EU alliance, but it fits argumentatively into the picture of rapid decarbonization, a main line of European policy. As a reminder, planet Earth is home to almost 8 billion people, while Europe has only about 700 million inhabitants. With 8.7% of the world's weight, activist climate policy is being pursued in this country. While the goals are laudable, the overall effect of the efforts is rather negligible. But the consequences for Europe's historically built-up prosperity will be considerable. What is important for investors to consider?

Blackout! Energy shares urgently sought: Plug Power, Varta, Altech Advanced Materials, BASF - Solar, wind or hydrogen?
Now things are becoming clearer. Germany is unlikely to experience an energy shortage like a blackout, and gas supplies for the winter also seem secure, given a 20% drop in gas consumption compared to the average figures from 2018 to 2021. However, household prices remain significantly above the long-term average. Currently, energy suppliers are not passing on the purchasing advantages from the Leipzig power exchange to their customers. Wholesale gas prices have fallen by 85% since mid-2022, but these lower conditions are not reaching customers. What opportunities are there for resourceful investors?

Ballard Power, Regenx Tech Corp., FuelCell Energy - Greentech with signs of life
Hope dies last. Despite the rosy outlook with regard to achieving the climate targets, most shares from the renewable energy and electromobility sector have fallen sharply in recent months. Especially companies from the hydrogen sector performed far weaker than the broad market. With an optimistic statement from Plug Power CEO Andy Marsh regarding the achievement of short-term sales targets, several stocks closed in the green by double digits. This momentum may now have heralded at least a short-term rally.

More than 100% with energy storage! Varta and Plug Power curious, BYD and Power Nickel mix up the battery sector!
There you go! In the last trading week, Varta and Plug Power turned up the heat and posted a price gain of almost 20%. After a long sell-off, this is the first technical rebound of the Fallen Angels. Long-term investors are wondering if there has been a fundamental change. Momentum traders are not interested in balance sheets, because rising prices attract buyers. We look at the shaken energy storage sector. Are there arguments for a buyback?

US debt limit suspended - Opportunity for gold: Uniper, Desert Gold, TUI - Turnaround within reach!
Shortly before the "bankruptcy" of the USA, Democrats and Republicans agreed to suspend the debt brake until mid-2025. Joe Biden explicitly praised the compromise - the Republicans, however, are in a less good mood, fearing a continuation of excessive spending, continued high inflation and too little pressure for massive budget cuts. After the House of Representatives, the Senate also voted at the last minute to suspend the statutory limit until mid-2025. In return, cuts in government spending of USD 800 billion over the next two years have been put on the table, but they are yet to be specified. What are the precious metals doing in this environment?

ThyssenKrupp, Power Nickel, Varta - Is nickel becoming scarce?
Nickel is a versatile metal that plays an important role in various industries. One of the largest applications of nickel is in stainless steel production, where it provides hardness, corrosion resistance and heat resistance. Nickel has also always been a crucial factor for batteries. Since the rise of electromobility, the metal has gained even more significance. Due to its ability to store high energy densities, it contributes to improving performance. Using it in the cathode achieves higher capacities and longer lifetimes, which is essential for electric cars. Given the growing trend towards electromobility, nickel is becoming an important raw material for the energy transition.

Nel ASA, First Hydrogen, Plug Power - Paving the way for hydrogen technology
Germany has shut down its nuclear power plants, and now the expansion of renewable energies is to be accelerated. But what happens to the surplus electricity when the sun shines all day? In order not to overload the grids, the energy is given away to neighbouring countries. In the future, it will be turned into green hydrogen that can cover the energy needs of industry and the transport sector. On May 25, the Federal Cabinet passed an amendment to the Energy Industry Act that defines the legal framework for a future hydrogen core network in Germany. Hydrogen technology will not only prevail in Germany. We, therefore, take a look at three international hydrogen companies.

Electrification wave! How investors can benefit: Siemens Energy, Vonovia, Defiance Silver
The electricity supply in Germany is a hot topic. Now even the German Trade Union Federation is calling for a guaranteed maximum price for industrial electricity. Critics fear that this would provide too little incentive for industrial companies to adapt to the new conditions - if electricity is cheap, there is no need to save, so the argument goes. We present three stocks related to the energy transition and shed light on their medium-term prospects.
