Heading South or Heading Higher? TUI and Lufthansa in a Fuel Crisis, RE Royalties and HelloFresh Under Scrutiny
Extremely high volatility — and almost every day. Iran threatens escalation, pushing oil prices higher, while Donald Trump publicly dreams of a quick peace deal, which could, in turn, push oil prices lower. Yesterday, however, Brent crude was trading at nearly USD 107 per barrel. Billions of dollars are being made in this back-and-forth by trading desks that operate largely outside the public eye, while questionable market activity is, of course, scrutinized mainly when it involves the average retail investor. The stock market has become a mirror reflecting just how much the world has changed. Autocratic rulers dictate the direction of attention and increasingly shape how societies interact. In the past, wars were waged over religious differences and territorial claims; today, economic interests clearly dominate, with everything else often serving as a pretext. After all, only countries close to the oil reserves have a direct interest in keeping oil prices high. Interestingly, over the past four years, the United States has risen to become the world's largest oil producer, ahead of Russia, Saudi Arabia, and Canada. Several stocks have significant exposure to these developments, particularly in the aviation and travel sectors. As always, the issue comes down to steadily rising costs. For speculative investors, some of the key players are worth a closer look.

Decentralized Instead of Power Shortages: A Comparison of Siemens Energy, 2G Energy and A.H.T. Syngas
When the power grid reaches its limits and power shortages loom, even wind turbines and solar farms are of no help. What is needed then is controllable generation, and combined heat and power (CHP) is considered a key bridging technology. Growing energy demand from industry and AI infrastructure calls for systems that can balance fluctuating feed-in from renewable energy sources. Solutions range from gigawatt-scale power plants to decentralized compact systems. We introduce three companies and shed light on this trend.

Billion-Dollar Poker, Margins & Cash Machine: Siemens Energy, Evonik and RE Royalties Could Be the Real Winners!
Evonik is at the centre of a billion-euro takeover bid that the target has rejected, leaving some investors wondering what comes next. Could a higher offer still emerge? Meanwhile, an industrial company that fought its way out of a deep crisis and saw its share price multiply is now facing renewed pressure. Can the tide turn once more? And then there is a relatively overlooked niche player offering high dividend yields. This is the mix of three companies featured in our latest article. We look at Siemens Energy's comeback after the dark years of the crisis and assess its outlook. We examine the background to BASF's rejected takeover approach for Evonik. Finally, we take a closer look at RE Royalties, which has paid out substantial dividends in the past and is approaching important technical chart levels. Read on as we examine the latest developments at all three companies and the opportunities and risks shaping their stories.

Vonovia: Between Expropriation and Defence Industry Fantasies - Verbio and RE Royalties Ride the Energy Boom
Data centres, electrification and rising industrial energy demand are driving up the need for renewable power across North America. RE Royalties is one of the beneficiaries. Its home market of Canada provides a promising starting point, while in the US it is expanding its partnership with solar developer Solaris Energy. In contrast, Vonovia is struggling with rising interest rates and the threat of a possible expropriation in Berlin. The uncertainty is weighing on investor sentiment. For now, even the prospect of entering the defence sector is failing to provide a boost. The company's CEO recently floated the idea. Verbio, meanwhile, is seeing strong business performance, and analysts are recommending the stock as a "Buy".

Sell Hensoldt? Copper at Record Highs! Power Metallic Mines Set to Benefit; Nordex Keeps the News Flow Coming!
Supply concerns are colliding with growing demand driven by power grids, electrification, and the expansion of AI infrastructure. This is pushing copper prices to record highs. One potential beneficiary with catch-up potential is Power Metallic Mines. The Canadian company is developing a world-class project with a high copper content. Analysts and the CEO believe the stock is undervalued. The latest resource estimate impressed, and the project's potential is likely even greater. Hensoldt, by contrast, offers no further upside, according to analysts. They question the company's long-term growth prospects and believe its valuation premium over Renk and Rheinmetall is not justified. Nordex is also considered ambitiously valued. However, the German wind-turbine maker continues to generate fresh share-price momentum through a steady stream of news.

Standard Uranium, 2G Energy and Secunet: Three Stocks with Promising News Flow and Upside Potential

Shell, A.H.T. Syngas, OPAL Fuels: Turning Waste into Energy
Waste, biomass and CO₂ are evolving from disposal problems into energy feedstocks. This creates a massive market: airlines need alternatives to fossil kerosene, industrial companies seek substitutes for natural gas, and even landfill gas can be converted into electricity or fuel. The key factor will be which technologies can economically convert these raw materials into usable energy. This marks the start of a race involving everyone from energy conglomerates to specialized plant manufacturers.
