Primetals Technologies, together with its partner Mitsubishi $8058 (-0,7 %)the steel manufacturer voestalpine $VOE (+0,93 %) and the mining group Rio Tinto $RIO (-1,8 %) signed a cooperation agreement for the construction of an industrial-scale prototype plant for hydrogen-based iron production in Linz, Austria.

The aim of the partners is to drive forward the development of fluidized bed and smelting technologies that could lead to net-zero CO2 emissions in iron production. The plant, which is scheduled to go into operation in mid-2027, will be the first time that a hydrogen-based direct reduction plant for fine ore will be integrated with a smelting plant producing pig iron briquettes, pig iron and pig iron.

The prototype plant will combine two core technologies of Primetals Technologies - hydrogen-based fine ore reduction (HYFOR) and the smelter. HYFOR is the first DR technology for processing iron ore fines without agglomeration and has been in pilot operation at the voestalpine Donawitz site since 2021. The smelter uses renewable energy to melt and further reduce the direct reduced iron (DRI), producing pig iron with potentially zero CO2 emissions.

"This project represents a significant step forward in future-proof ironmaking - for the first time we will implement a continuous production process with hydrogen-based direct reduction," said Alexander Fleischanderl, Chief Technology Officer and Head of Green Steel at Primetals.

"The combination of HYFOR and Smelter is a highly innovative development that has the potential to change the industry, similar to how the LD converter (BOF) has impacted steel production. We are very proud to have voestalpine, Rio Tinto and Mitsubishi as strong partners and together we are able to play a key role in shaping the future of ironmaking with net CO2 emissions."

The new plant will have a capacity of three tons of pig iron per hour.

Mitsubishi, a strategic partner in the development, will support the expansion of the technology through its ferrous raw materials business. "Mining and trading of ferrous raw materials has been one of our core businesses for many decades, and we intend to develop a new range of low-emission metals to support the decarbonization of the steel industry," said Kenichiro Tauchi, COO of the Group's ferrous raw materials business.

"HYFOR and Smelter are promising new technologies to accelerate the decarbonization of the steel industry, and Mitsubishi Corporation is pleased to participate as a strategic partner of Primetals Technologies in the development of these breakthrough technologies together with leading partners in the steel supply chain."

voestalpine sees the project as being in line with its greentec steel strategy. "With greentec steel, voestalpine has a clear step-by-step plan for CO2-neutral steel production," says voestalpine CEO Herbert Eibensteiner.

"As a first step, a green electric arc furnace will be put into operation at both the Linz and Donawitz sites from 2027. By 2029, we will reduce our CO2 emissions by up to 30% compared to 2019. This corresponds to almost 5% of Austria's total annual CO2 emissions and makes greentec steel the largest climate protection program in Austria. Our long-term strategy is to achieve climate-neutral steel production with green hydrogen. Together with Primetals Technologies and Rio Tinto, we are taking a completely new and promising path in research into hydrogen-based pig iron production."

Rio Tinto, one of the world's largest iron ore producers, will supply 70% of the iron ore feedstock for the plant, sourced from its Pilbara operations, the Iron Ore Company of Canada and the future Simandou operations.

"We are pleased to join a consortium that covers the entire iron and steelmaking value chain," said Thomas Apffel, General Manager for Steel Decarbonization at Rio Tinto. "By contributing our ironmaking expertise and iron ore from the Pilbara, Iron Ore Company of Canada and the future Simandou operations, we aim to drive the development and adoption of fluidized bed technology. This fines-based ironmaking solution is a compelling alternative to shaft furnace technology as it eliminates the need for pelletization, which can offer significant benefits to both steelmakers and mining companies. Rio Tinto welcomes the addition of further participants to the consortium and looks forward to supporting the widespread adoption of this innovative technology."

The project has been supported by several EU and Austrian government initiatives. These include the Austrian Federal Government's "Transformation of Industry" program managed by Kommunalkredit Public Consulting (KPC), the "Twin Transition" initiative managed by Austria Wirtschaftsservice (aws), the EU Coal and Steel Research Fund under the Clean Steel Partnership and the EU's Clean Hydrogen Partnership under the Hydrogen Valleys.

• EBITDA outlook at around EUR 1.4 billion

Not available for TL:TR -- the whole thing in more detail📃

The voestalpine Group was confronted with low economic momentum in the current reporting period. This weakened the revenue fell by 5.5% in the first half of 2024/25, from EUR 8,512.8 million in the previous year to EUR 8,042.3 million. The year-on-year decline in sales, which affected all four divisions equally, is the result of lower sales volumes and a drop in prices against the backdrop of falling raw material costs.

The operating result (EBITDA) of the voestalpine Group vdecreased by 20.5% year-on-year in the first half of 2024/25, from EUR 903.4 million (margin of 10.6%) to EUR 718.1 million (margin of 8.9%). The operating result (EBIT) of the voestalpine Group fell by around a third year-on-year, from EUR 519.3 million (margin 6.1%) in the first half of 2023/24 to EUR 338.5 million (margin 4.2%) in the first half of 2024/25.

Outlook.

Outlook:

At the start of the 2024/25 financial year, the weak performance of the construction, mechanical engineering and consumer goods industries was offset by very good demand from the railroad infrastructure, aviation, warehouse technology and conventional energy sectors. The automotive industry also performed largely stable at a solid level.

The conventional energy sector weakened noticeably over the course of the first quarter and the automotive industry also lost considerable momentum at the end of the second quarter following a series of profit warnings from well-known European OEMs. The economic mood in Europe changed over the course of the first half of 2024/25 after large corporations announced extensive plans to reduce their workforce.

On the basis of the result for the 1st half of 2024/25, the significantly gloomier market developments in Europe and the non-recurring burdens on earnings totaling more than EUR 100 million from the sale of Buderus Edelstahl and the reorganization of the reorganization of the Automotive Components business in Germany the Management Board of voestalpine AG expects for the business year 2024/25 from today's perspective an EBITDA in a range of around EUR 1.4 billion.

This earnings outlook is based on the on the expectation of continued good global development in the railroad infrastructure, aviation and warehouse technology business areas. The assessment of the performance of the voestalpine sites outside Europe in the other business segments also remains positive for the second half of 2024/25.

The challenges in Europe, and especially in Germany the Management Board of voestalpine AG is meeting the challenges in Europe, and especially in Germany, with active management and, where not otherwise possible, by reducing the Group's presence in this region.

My conclusion: I will continue to hold my position for the time being, but will not expand any further. Depending on the economic environment, Trump's influence, etc., a sale may also be an option

Who else has VOEST in their portfolio? What's your view? Hold, increase or sell?

#deflation instead of inflation in China 🇨🇳. The new data push the markets in Asia into the red on Wednesday. Prices fell by 0.3% compared to the same month last year. Expected were even 0.4%. Nevertheless, the figures did not go down well, because deflation is, like inflation harmful to the economy.

Hello dear community,

In view of the fact that there are now a lot of newcomers on the platform, I've created a graphic, typical of social media, to give you an overview of stocks that not everyone may have on their radar. It goes without saying that you can't know your way around every sector. But we have come together here in the community for a solid exchange.

But since we're here on Getquin and not on Instagram, here's some input for the inquisitive.

What do the companies do anyway?

Service providers:

On the service provider side, there are some rather atypical companies for the sector.

Here I have Friedrich Vorwerk $VH2 (+3,59 %) Vinci $DG (-0,1 %) , Ferrovial $FER , Bilfinger $GBF (+2,02 %) and Jacobs Solutions $J (+0,47 %) are listed here.

Their main focus is the background work on the properties themselves. They support the companies in planning, realization, construction and maintenance. They work decentrally in regional working groups to cover the breadth of the industry. They offer almost every service for an industrial company.

The established elite

If you want to invest in the hydrogen sector, all roads lead to the giants Linde $LIN (+1,07 %) Air Products $APD (-0,32 %) and Air Liquide $AI (+0,08 %) . Their market power in the field of industrial gases and in today's market environment of commercial hydrogen production seems irrefutable. Their know-how in the gaseous material production segment has been tried and tested for decades and the processes are almost perfectly optimized. Each company also has its own engineering divisions, making them perfectly positioned for the future in electrolyzer development.

The established newcomers

With plenty of money in their pockets, the oil companies Shell $SHEL (+1,27 %) Total $TTE (+0,95 %) and BP $BP. (+0,21 %) are also entering the segment. Oil is finite, but the business should not be. These companies are also experienced in dealing with hydrogen. Hydrogen is an essential component in the refinery process. In order to become less dependent on the big 3, new market areas are also being explored here. Will they be able to prove themselves?

Speculative titles

Never anything but expenses. Years of hype and yet a harsh reality hit the small fish in the shark tank surrounding the segment. Nel $NEL (+0,25 %) Plug Power $PLUG (-5,33 %) and Ballard $BLDP (+0,93 %) are long-suffering. They have never been able to deliver even remotely profitable figures. On the contrary, things seem to be getting worse quarter after quarter. Only turnover is increasing. Can that ever be good?

Plant engineering and equipment

Of course, in a globalized world, you no longer take care of the entire value chain from A-Z. Every company specializes in its own segment. The long-term beneficiaries of the industry are therefore the equipment suppliers, because they have to develop the technical foundations for every innovation in order to survive in the vastness of globalization.

The plant manufacturers

They manufacture the physical parts for the process plants.

Examples of this are Voestalpine $VOE (+0,93 %) , Atlas Copco $ATCO B or Sulzer $SUNE .

The suppliers

The transportation of substances is also part of this. Material transport in industry, but also at home, for example in water pipes, is ensured by pumps (for liquids) or compressors (for gases). Established brands here are KSB $KSB (+0 %) , Xylem $XYL (+0,74 %) , Gorrman-Rupp $GRC (+0,32 %) but also as a complete supplier Chart Industries $GTLS (+0,45 %) or SKF $SKF B (+0,68 %) or for specialized tools Stanley B&D $SWK (+0,22 %) .

Process control is also indispensable. Brands such as Siemens $SIE (+3,19 %) ABB $ABBN (+1,8 %) or Rockwell $ROK (+0,16 %) and Parker $PH (+0,38 %) have established themselves here. They not only supply the electronic equipment for the process systems. They also offer their software services as safety services so that safety in process control can always be guaranteed.

I hope I have given you a little insight into the industry and would be delighted to receive constructive feedback.

The Great LoneMelon July Update:

Today I'm going to transparently re-update every analysis I've written here on Getquin so far.

Important to understand here is that when I trade by TA, I include daily and weekly events in my analysis. Therefore, what I wrote months ago may not be true today. However, for transparency reasons, I will update all analyses here exactly as I wrote them months ago and then write my explanations.

$CSNDX (+1,22 %)

An analysis that took place under a post of Moritz @leveragegrinding has taken place.

Not officially on my profile, however, I have this already linked in the last update post so here again.

Chart No. 1

https://www.tradingview.com/x/xCS1Y6zq/

Update No. 1

https://www.tradingview.com/x/kOIZ3R1J/

Update no. 2

https://www.tradingview.com/x/vj4EMoGZ/

Update No. 3 (Current)

https://www.tradingview.com/x/Hiv3te71/

Unfortunately I don't have the chart here anymore so I had to tinker it together a bit. Also my layouts are different in the meantime. Therefore, do not be surprised it looks design technically somewhat different. But I left everything relevant in it.

We had here 3 trade ideas.

1x Long Entry at the zone of 11800 - 11400.

2x Short Entry - once between 12900 and 13100 and once at 13200-13800 with the volume imbalance at 13300.

Trade No. 1 (Long) this would be currently, if one had held it up to our short entries at approx. 15% or 3-5R (1R corresponds to what one risks from the portfolio. With good risk management these are approx. - 0,5-1%) Therefore approx. 1,5-5% of the depot value in the plus. If one would have held until 10.07.2023 approx. 7R or 30%.

Trade Nr.2 (Short Entry Nr.1) here we actually had a confirmation and a structural change on the daily chart. (This was not particularly impulsive) but transparently we take this quite normally. Accordingly, we have been stopped out here and have therefore lost 0.5-1% of the portfolio in this trade. Since we assume good risk management here and that is worked with a stop loss.

Trade Nr.3 (Short Entry Nr.2) has never given a confirmation.

Accordingly, conclusion for the Nasdaq chart from January 24, 2023:

Current performance would be about 1-4% up or depending on entry, trades and risk management so 1-6R (1-6x what was risked). Means currently profitable. However, it is quite clear to see here that I did not expect so strongly rising prices at that time. But as I said TA changes over time and therefore I would have to make continuous updates to reflect my clear opinion here. However, we also see that although the zones have not held we had in fact pretty much every zone a strong or semi-strong reaction in which certainly also trades on smaller time frames would have been possible.

$BYW6 (-1,37 %)

Current chart:

Conclusion was 30€ more likely than 60€.

Since analysis now almost 20% lost with reactions at all our zones meanwhile it stands at 37€ and in the next months I could also imagine that our last targets will be reached.

$BAYN (+3,54 %)

https://app.getquin.com/activity/sTjMuBBPmb?lang=de

Take Profit 1and Take Profit 2were achieved - meanwhile therefore in profit or stopped out at breakeven.

$ADS (-0,28 %)

Entry has never been hit. Therefore irrelevant. However, still well above our original take profit 1.

$YOU (+0 %)

Current image

https://www.tradingview.com/x/bzwPg9HI/

As you can see here, unfortunately, it did not work. However, we have never seen a weekly trend shift, which is the most relevant statement for us to recognize a truly sustainable trend change.

However, it remains with me on the watch list because I find the chart still attractive only so far we have unfortunately no clear confirmations. If one had bought here, however, one would have been stopped out at a loss. Optimally again 0.5-1R.

$TSLA (+10,24 %)

https://app.getquin.com/activity/QSOKCAAnqn?lang=de&utm_source=sharing

TSLA has fallen slightly lower than expected at that time, so maybe you were stopped out maybe not. However, the confirmation for a good trade came later anyway.

Current chart:

https://www.tradingview.com/x/dAVCkstt/

If you had bought, you would be in any case very strong in the plus. TP1 and TP2 would have been hit by now and you would still have 30% of the position in the portfolio with a stop loss at breakeven and a take profit of 300.

$AAPL (+0,28 %)

There was no chart here. And the short was therefore liquidated after take profit 1 on breakeven. Good example that it does not always work out as expected.

https://app.getquin.com/activity/MJKlRMNPxv?lang=de

In fact, I am still bearish on Apple and think we will give up very strongly again in the long term.

Tech shares post:

https://app.getquin.com/activity/kfGYQLdedI?lang=de&utm_source=sharing

$SHOP (+2,12 %)

Price recovery has been achieved - let's see how low we correct - are actually currently bullish so my entry prices will probably not be reached.

As per last post. We are still at my recovery target of $50-65 Long term I still think we will correct sharply again.

$PYPL (+1,18 %)

We were assuming an inevitable 62-55$ and an interesting price of 45$. Well that was 7 months ago I think everyone knows what happened with Paypal. 62-55$ worked out perfectly and we currently have a small recovery from the zone as well. Personally I see Paypal continuing to fall. My dear @BearStearnsCFO or also the generally known SOS spammer meant at that time, as well as with many of my current targets always that will not happen. I think so much about it... how did your Biontech trade actually go? You said you could trade the range super easy and without risk. Well shortly thereafter we are broken under it.

So much for small provocations within the community - but who permanently spams under everything SOS must... well I've already mentioned many times that this SOS spam is bullshit.

$SPOT (+2,68 %)

Has not changed since my last update.

$SPYD (-0,93 %)

In the meantime you can make an update here:

https://app.getquin.com/activity/vIFUcibKbt?lang=de

Update:

https://www.tradingview.com/x/uZFF92Xy/

We've actually started to pick up the liquidity slowly here. I personally think that will continue. However, we are not yet clearly Bearish here. For this, a candle must first close below the marked lows. But currently everything is going according to plan.

$VOE (+0,93 %)

https://app.getquin.com/activity/BuoOntxzof?lang=de

Update:

https://app.getquin.com/activity/BuoOntxzof?lang=de

After our Take Profit 1 and our move into the short entry area, we have corrected a bit for now. So that Take Profit 2 and 3 can still hit it is very important that the 28.5 hold. Otherwise, our short scenario comes to bear here completely and we see a strong correction. Who was long has taken profits and who is already short or plans to go short may also have a good trade opportunity.

Interesting chart - I will continue to monitor.

Digital Security:

$LOCK (+0,9 %)

https://www.tradingview.com/x/DLKl9kdb/

Update:

https://www.tradingview.com/x/EgSgRG6E/

As you can see, our bullish weekly scenario has fully worked out so far. The liquidity was adjusted our volume imbalance filled and currently we are correcting. Currently, we still have no structural change. Currently, I would be cautious with trades because it looks bullish for now. However, we have just filled the liquidity and the volume imbalance - that would also speak for a potential manipulation and a correction below the Lows and the occurrence of our Bearishen scenario. I will continue to monitor the stock.

$NET (+1,89 %)

https://www.tradingview.com/x/OZbI6QCe/

Update:

https://www.tradingview.com/x/4gPdgdVN/

We have seen a very clear reaction on the order block here. Unfortunately, liquidity is still active therefore no clear bull scenario yet. Also, we do not have a structural change yet. However, as soon as we see this on a weekly basis, the share is highly interesting.

$CRWD (+2,47 %)

https://www.tradingview.com/x/35bY3wFr/

Update:

https://www.tradingview.com/x/QMaBN7CF/

It almost doesn't get any cleaner than this. Both the red and the blue have come out perfectly so far. Almost perfect reactions and corrections. Since I am almost surprised myself 😉

Currently, we are weekly but not yet bullish. As soon as we see a clear structural change here, I think the CRWD could also be highly interesting.

$PG (+1,18 %)

https://app.getquin.com/activity/blGzZtuQpY?lang=de

Update:

https://www.tradingview.com/x/yfNe3lNX/

Perfectly into our Snipe Entry and thereupon pumped up to our target - the liquidity at 154 approx. 15%. Currently, it looks to me more like a correction. The low at 141 must hold aufjedenfall so that a bullish scenario continues to prevail. Otherwise, the liquidity at 135 and possibly even 120 will probably be attacked.

$ABBV (+3,15 %)

We are continuing to fall on the bearish side. Our swing formation has not been completed and we are on the way to our marked liquidity. I personally find the stock interesting but for a purchase we need here first a really nice trend reversal on the weekly chart. Accordingly, the high at 40 and 42 is currently very interesting for us.

Conclusion:

So after this detailed post a big thank you if anyone actually read through this completely.

I would like to mention here again that TA always changes. I trade as often mentioned not according to any predictions, but in principle I have my structure - > My zones and levels where I expect reactions, and then I look if my structure changes into a trend change in my marked zones. So I trade practically always already, after the market has decided for a direction. Mostly, the prices always correct - even after a strong rise. Means usually one gets good Entries if one brings along simply something patience. So you also reduce losses, because you trade only after a confirmation and not trying to snipe the perfect point.

I actually think that my performance can be seen only with what was shared here on Getquin and also I have of course developed significantly since my first analyses.

I wish everyone a great start to the week. If you want to talk more about TA, feel free to add me on discord. Discord Tag: lonemelone

Greetings go out to all with whom I am regularly in contact on discord and of course to dear D.Duck 😉

PS: If someone wants to have a stock analyzed write it in the comments I choose one :)

In the current month, a lot has happened again - the rebalancing in my value and momentum portfolio is also through. This time there are actually two companies from the DACH region and I have learned something new: Salzgitter produces "green" steel - exciting, but in my opinion still expandable.

As always, you can read most things directly here in the post at getquin. Here is my current blog post about it:

https://www.valueinvestments.ch/vermoegensverwaltung-estoppey-value-investments-value-und-momentum-rebalancing-maerz-2023

By the end of February, it was already becoming apparent that the recovery from early 2023 was faltering. Inflation concerns made investors cautious. On Friday, March 10, 2023, there was further bad news from the American market: Silicon Valley Bank filed for bankruptcy. This was a bank that specialized primarily in the financing of startups. Last Sunday saw the next bank closure: Signature Bank in New York had to cease operations. It was originally active in the real estate lending business. Newly, it had many deposits from companies in the field of cryptocurrencies. Both banks had a problem: their business was hardly diversified and so there were liquidity shortages and a so-called bank run, in which many customers wanted to withdraw their money at the same time.

However, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, FDIC - the institution responsible for deposit insurance in the US, so to speak - reacted immediately: it secured the deposits and ensured that these two events did not lead to further problems in the financial system.

On the following Monday, however, stock market prices plummeted across the board. But by Tuesday, everything was forgotten again and we saw sharply rising prices: it was apparently enough that inflation in the USA was in line with expectations and stagnated at around 6%. In other words, for eight months in a row, inflation in the US has been falling. This gives us hope that everything will not become too expensive and that interest rates will not rise too much. Nevertheless, the following week continued volatile and directly on the next weekend there was the next "banger" with the takeover of Credit Suisse by UBS... the largest Swiss bank swallows the second largest - let's see if this goes well in the long term or an even greater cluster risk was created here.

Asset Management - Value & Momentum worldwide

Also in March 2023, the return in the Value and Momentum portfolio has decreased a bit. Today we see an average return of 14.4% and a return since start of 51%. Right now, the portfolio is not really getting off the ground. But the past shows that it doesn't take much for stock prices to rise sharply. No one can know what will happen tomorrow - for example, if you miss a year like 2021 on the stock market, you wipe out the entire return. Therefore: Staying with it is everything and what you need is patience.

Rebalancing Value and Momentum

Again this month I was able to find two companies that are undervalued and meet the strict quality criteria to be included in the portfolio:

Austrian Voestalpine AG, which specializes in steel processing, is a new addition: with 500 group companies and locations in 50 countries, it operates on 5 continents.Salzgitter AG is also active in steel production and processing and has its headquarters in Germany.

Both companies look back on a long history - Salzgitter was even founded as early as 1858. It was not until 1961 that the company was given its current name. Energy prices and steel prices have normalized somewhat, which benefits both companies. Both companies are very favorably valued and have high momentum.

ZIM Integrated Shipping was sold. The Israeli company is still favorably valued, but has completely lost its momentum. Only thanks to the high dividend payouts, the loss was "only" -31%. Which is still well behind expectations. Container shipping benefited from high demand and catch-up potential after the Corona pandemic. However, both have normalized and prices in this segment have fallen.

Asset Management - the newcomers to the portfolio

Salzgitter AG

As the company's name suggests, its headquarters are located in the German city of Salzgitter, which has a population of around 100,000. Salzgitter AG was given its current name in 1961, but the company's roots go back to 1858.

Salzgitter AG is divided into the following business units:

• Steel Production
• Steel Processing: Steel tubes and plate in particular.
• Trading: Own distribution to the end customer.
• Technology: Machines and equipment for filling and packaging of beverages.

As of 2021, Salzgitter AG supplied green flat steel products to plants of Mecedes-Benz AG, for example. The special feature of this is that the CO2 footprint could be reduced by over 66% to 75%: In order to save CO2, Salzgitter invested in the production of hydrogen as early as 2019. The electricity for hydrogen production is supplied by wind turbines on Salzgitter AG's premises. This ensures that the hydrogen is so-called green hydrogen, which is produced with renewable energy.

Voestalpine AG

Voestalpine AG is an Austrian company with its headquarters in Linz. Its foundation dates back to 1938. It was not until 1995 that the privatization took place with the Erstnotierung on the Viennese Börse took place.

The company processes, develops, produces and sells steel products internationally, but primarily in Austria and Europe. The main customers are railroad companies, the automotive industry, the construction industry, mechanical engineering, the oil and gas industry, but also the aerospace and energy technology sectors.

Today, Voestalpine is active in the following segments:

• Steel: Rolled as well as electrolytically galvanized and organically coated steel strip and heavy plate.
• High-performance metals: Special alloys of various kinds.
• Metals technology: Rails and switches, wires, seamless tubes and digital monitoring systems.
• Metal Forming: Special tubes and profiles, precision strip steel products, and ready-to-install system components made from pressed, stamped, and rolled sections.
