Trends come and go. When everyone suddenly had to switch to their home office in March of last year, TeamViewer's stock was considered an absolute future stock. But times have changed.

We present exciting stocks with a sustainable perspective.

    Varta: Electromobility "Made in Germany"?

    The list of hot stocks always includes one name: Varta. The German manufacturer supplies batteries primarily for hearing aids or headphones. Since the consumer electronics sector is booming, Varta is also benefiting strongly from the trend. A look at the customer list helps to classify the battery manufacturer's situation: In addition to Apple, Varta also supplies Samsung and Sony. Since demand is booming, Varta even wants to expand its capacities in 2021. The fact that Varta batteries will continue to sell in the future is almost certainly due to their technological superiority over cheap Asian competitors. Varta is continuously working on increasing its batteries' energy density to ensure that users can enjoy their devices for even longer.

    In addition to the traditional battery business, Varta also wants to enter battery production for electromobility. Public funding of EUR 300 million is to flow into this. Although competitors from Asia are well-positioned in this area, the fantasy surrounding battery production for electric cars drives Varta's share price. Some market observers see the share moderately valued up to a level of EUR 200. The share is currently trading at EUR 125, still some way from its all-time high of EUR 133.50. Given the growth potential, Varta could be promising in the long term.

    wallstreet:online: Trading boom drives the share

    wallstreet:online is also considered promising. The portal operator has been among the brokers for more than a year and offers a good range of services with its Smartbroker, which brought 70,000 new securities accounts in the first year. In total, Smartbroker has assets of more than EUR 2 billion. wallstreet:online was able to drive this growth cost-effectively thanks to its platforms and websites with "on-board" resources. In the forums of wallstreet-online.de and Finanznachrichten.de, the Company refers the relevant target group to its own broker offering. The media business units and the Smartbroker, therefore, complement each other perfectly.

    The Company's forecasts indicate that this growth could further continue in 2021, with a potential customer base reaching 120,000 by the end of 2021. The Company's portals are to provide even better support in the future. At wallstreet:online, one can imagine that customers will also trade actively from articles in the future. Since the portfolio's websites are an essential source of information for many private investors, this fits. Within a year, the number of page impressions rose from 200 to 300 million. Most private investors themselves probably know the fact that shares and self-determined investments are in vogue. Anyone who has shares from wallstreet:online in their portfolio and leaves them there can profit from the trend without actively trading themselves.

    TeamViewer: Success must be preserved

    While wallstreet:online's stock has gained more than 180% within a year, TeamViewer's return is only 31%. This low return is somewhat surprising since TeamViewer was one of the most hyped stocks in 2020 during the first lockdown. But since the summer of 2020, the share price has been moving sideways with a downward trend. Although TeamViewer was able to increase sales and the number of users last year significantly, the Company also invested in the future. TeamViewer opened sales offices around the globe and entered new markets. New competition is also waiting there.

    To defend the market share it gained in 2020, TeamViewer will have to step up its game both technologically and in terms of sales. The market also believes that this situation could become challenging and is cautious about TeamViewer's stock. The Company undoubtedly has good products, but the "home office pie" currently appears to be distributed. Some trends are more promising—for example, the business model of wallstreet:online.

    Is the Gold Price Falling? Buy the Dip! Why Barrick Mining, Desert Gold Ventures, and Agnico Eagle Mines Now Offer Attractive Entry Points

    Following the recent decline in the gold price, alarm bells are ringing for many investors. But those who look closely will recognize a familiar market dynamic. Every overheated rally is typically followed by a healthy consolidation phase. It is precisely this correction that may create a rare window of opportunity for strategically positioned investors, as the precious metal's fundamental upward momentum remains intact thanks to expectations of interest rate cuts and central bank purchases. Those willing to take a contrarian view at this stage could benefit disproportionately from the next recovery phase. Three industry players with different strategic profiles illustrate how current uncertainty can be transformed into potential returns: Barrick Mining, Desert Gold, and Agnico Eagle.

    As the gold price continues to consolidate, this gold gem may present the investment opportunity of the year. Lahontan Gold is aiming to make history in the coming months by advancing toward gold production in Nevada. In its latest investor presentation, management confirmed that preparations for mine construction remain fully on track. In addition, a new resource estimate is expected to be released in the coming weeks. If projections from major banks such as Goldman Sachs are correct, the gold price could soon regain upward momentum, with some forecasts suggesting levels above USD 5,000 by the end of 2026. This is being driven in part by stronger-than-expected central bank gold purchases. With potential production costs of around USD 1,200 per ounce, Lahontan Gold could benefit significantly. At current levels, the stock still appears attractively valued.

    Takeover Candidates for 2026! The Life Sciences Sector Is Heating Up: Evotec, BioNxt Solutions, BioNTech, and Formycon in Focus!

    In recent months, the stock market has focused primarily on high-tech and defence stocks. While this strategy may have worked well for investors in the short term, it has also pushed several life sciences stocks to levels that some consider overly depressed. The Hamburg-based drug discovery company Evotec has lost around 75% of its market value over the past three years, with similar declines seen at BioNTech, Formycon, and BioNxt Solutions. Yet some pipelines are indeed valuable and backed by years of research. For a buyer with deep pockets, this could represent an attractive opportunity, as much of the costly early-stage work has already been completed. We are looking at a sector that has been unjustly forgotten. Where do opportunities lie for risk-conscious investors?
