Many crises over the past six years – notably the coronavirus pandemic and Russia's invasion of Ukraine – have had consequences for the global economy. Supply chains were disrupted, production resources were lacking, inflation rates skyrocketed, and there was turmoil on the capital markets. As if these burdens, which continue to have an impact to this day, were not enough, US President Donald Trump has created total uncertainty in just three months in office.

Leifheit has weathered the recent turbulence on the stock markets well. At around 19 euros, the household products manufacturer's share price is even slightly above the level it was at before US President Donald Trump's first tariffs announcement, which marked the beginning of the strong fluctuations on the stock markets. Leifheit shares are currently benefiting from the high proportion of turnover generated in Europe (89%) and the fact that the majority of production sites are located in Europe.

It's a difficult time for German auto suppliers. Even without the gyrations on tariffs from US President Donald Trump, the weak economic situation in the industry means holding on to cash. This is especially true for companies specialising in electromobility, as electric cars are nowhere near reaching the sales figures that were predicted in recent years.

Deep-sea mining sounds a bit like science fiction. Almost like extracting raw materials from asteroids and comets. But a study by management consultants Roland Berger concludes that commercial production will start by 2030, and that 19 deep-sea mining sites will generate a total of around 25 billion dollars just five years after that.

In just a few weeks, the bursting of the dotcom bubble on 10 March 2000 will mark its 25th anniversary. It seems like a strange coincidence that the Dax has been going wild precisely at this moment. A correction appears inevitable. While bulls put forth numerous arguments to fundamentally justify the German benchmark index’s rally in recent months and downplay the risk of a setback, they fail to convince, even when all taken together.

The goal of a healthy, or at least healthier, diet is a constant topic in the media and in private life. In countless studies, scientists have come to the conclusion that consumers should avoid foods that are high in sugar and fat – such as fast food, soft drinks, sweets and savoury snacks. These are often high in calories and low in nutrients, which can lead to obesity, and make people susceptible to diseases such as diabetes.

Old awards can eventually blow up in companies' and people's faces if what they were once honoured for goes completely wrong.

We see sustainability as one of the core prerequisites for the long-term success and future viability of our group. I am very pleased that our group financing is linked to our ESG strategy. Does the addition of an ESG component to the loan also have an impact that can be expressed in numbers? Yes.
