Critical metals existential - Plug Power, Almonty Industries, Nordex
The electric car market is poised for further exponential growth in the current decade. Supplier Bosch predicts that by 2030, two-thirds of all newly registered cars in Europe will be electric. As demand for e-vehicles grows, so does the need for the materials to make batteries. In addition to lithium, the critical metal tungsten is playing an increasingly important role due to its high density and high melting point. Up to now, production has taken place almost exclusively in China. However, a Canadian company that could become a supplier to the western world in the future is causing quite a stir.

JinkoSolar, Manuka Resources, BYD - Vanadium raw material as an insider tip
China and Russia are the two leading vanadium producers, with the Middle Kingdom producing 70,000 tons in 2022, more than 4 times as much vanadium as Russia. South Africa came in 3rd place with 3,000 tons. As a result, the metal has made it onto the list of critical raw materials in the US and Europe. In addition to common applications in steel production, catalysts and aerospace, the raw material is now coming into focus because of new vanadium redox batteries that can be used as energy storage devices and have a longer lifespan. The batteries are scalable, safer, and more environmentally friendly and can thus contribute to the energy transition. Commercialization is already starting, but vanadium is scarce.

Nordex, First Phosphate, ThyssenKrupp - Top news on the energy transition
German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has a vision. By 2045 the Federal Republic of Germany is to operate on a climate-neutral basis. However, this will require even greater investment in renewable energy sources such as wind and solar power. An average of four to five onshore wind turbines are to be built every day. Further investments in infrastructure are also planned concerning electromobility. Once again, an ambitious plan by the traffic light government.

Bank failure and new heaters! Nordex, Defense Metals, JinkoSolar - Greentech shares in the focus of investors
German Economics Minister Habeck wants to stick to his controversial plans to ban the installation of new oil and gas heating systems from 2024. In press releases, he describes the "heat turnaround" as mandatory. However, criticism of the plan is getting louder rather than quieter. What other countries do not even discuss is to be implemented here as quickly as possible due to a lack of fossil raw materials. The government in Berlin is worried about the climate targets set by law and still believes in the prosperity-securing transformation of the German economy and private households. The financing side of these projects is being forgotten because not everyone will be able to afford the purchases. FDP parliamentary group leader Dürr sent Habeck's plans back to the "assembly hall" for the time being on the talk show "Anne Will" because of various construction defects. The crux of the matter is energy availability, which is crucial for a green transformation. Which values now belong in the portfolio?

Plug Power and Nordex disappoint, and a milestone for Manuka Resources
The shift to renewable energy is being accelerated significantly by policymakers and industry, but companies continue to struggle to meet their plan targets. Nevertheless, the market outlook is optimistic that the transformation to alternative energy will continue to gain momentum. One of the cost drivers is the high cost of raw materials, which has increased significantly again due to the sanctions against Russia. Manuka Resources is still a young player in the market that could significantly cushion the shortages of the critical raw material vanadium, which is needed for energy storage systems.

TUI, Saturn Oil + Gas, Plug Power - Three shares with doubling potential
Finding shares with doubling potential requires a thorough analysis. On the one hand, the company's sector should have growth potential. If the sector is innovative, that also speaks in favour of the share. Then, a look at the competitors is important to see if the company is well positioned. If both factors fit, one should take a closer look at the candidate's finances. If you can tick off several items on this checklist, it is worth taking a closer look at the chart technique. Today we look at three candidates that have what it takes to double their share prices, at least in the long term.

Please turn on the power! Myriad Uranium, RWE, E.ON, Uniper, ThyssenKrupp - Renewable energy plus nuclear power is the green future!
Unfortunately, the green policy from Berlin and Brussels has not been thought through to the end. Because if mobility is to be converted entirely to electricity, it will require significantly more energy than is available today. Land consumption in Germany has increased dramatically as a result of alternative energy generation from wind and solar power. In the medium term, therefore, a further push for these energy sources will lead to a declining standard of living and less nature. Nuclear energy is a discontinued model - apparently only in Germany. It is a good thing that our neighbours France and the Czech Republic are happy to let us connect to their grids. However, this has its price and means the same risk profile for Germany as if the reactors were located here. Which stocks fit into the European energy landscape?

Nuclear power, yes please! GoviEx Uranium, Rheinmetall, BYD, NIO - Important power for e-mobility!
Currently, 47 nuclear reactors in the Chinese pipeline are scheduled to come on stream within the next eight to ten years. In a global comparison, this puts Beijing at the top of the international planning list, followed by Russia and India. At last count, four nuclear power plants were under construction worldwide in 2020. In Germany, electricity generation from renewable energies continues to increase every year, while the electricity yield generated with the help of nuclear power continues to fall. This increases the costs for the German energy supply more and more, but the Berlin traffic lights are not interested in this. According to announcements by the German government, all nuclear reactors are to be shut down by April 2023 as part of the energy transition. What do investors need to pay attention to now?

A 100% rocket launched - Who builds the best battery? Tesla, First Phosphate, BASF and Varta
The Tesla investor day is getting closer. On March 01, the eccentric visionary Elon Musk will again address his disciples, this time from the new Gigafactory in Austin/Texas. Analysts went into the presentation of the annual figures with cautious expectations because many negative rumors were surrounding Elon Musk's electronics company: Fewer sales? Cars on stockpile? It came as no one had expected. Elon Musk delivered and, at the same time, taunted all the shorties who wanted to push his stock below USD 100 before the end of the year. It was a big mistake because the Texans even exceeded the analysts' estimates, and then there was no stopping them. Up 100% in only 6 weeks, and Cathie Wood can celebrate success with her ARK funds again. But Tesla is not alone among the 100% movers.
