I was inspired by a Focus Money article and because many people here are asking.

I won't be investing myself, it's too short-term for me. But there are still some very interesting companies.

The signs of a peace process in Ukraine are solidifying. This is triggering a run on the stock market for shares that could benefit from reconstruction

Regardless of the political interpretation, the stock market has been turning its back on the war for several days now and is betting on the coming peace. Stocks that are likely to benefit from the reconstruction in Ukraine have soared. The UBS Ukraine Reconstruction Index, which comprises 25 of these stocks, has been climbing for days and is at an all-time high. "The effects of a possible ceasefire in Ukraine are still being underestimated on the financial markets," says Bernd Meyer, Chief Investment Strategist and Head of Multi Asset at Berenberg, who is convinced that the rally will continue. Reconstruction requires enormous resources. According to estimates by the World Bank, the costs for this amount to a total of 500 billion dollars - the equivalent of Austria's gross domestic product and more than three times Ukraine's annual economic output before the war. The money is likely to benefit construction companies, suppliers, infrastructure companies and banks in particular. European companies could be the main beneficiaries - especially from neighboring countries such as Poland and Hungary, but also the Czech Republic, Austria and Germany.

With Wärtsilä $WRT1V (+0,88 %) a provider of technologies for the shipping and energy markets, and Konecranes $KCR (+2,09 %) a manufacturer of industrial cranes and drive technology, Finnish companies are also on the list of potential peace beneficiaries - as are Italian companies such as the cement and building materials manufacturer Buzzi $BZU (-1,11 %) The list is long. There is a great need for building materials, steel and cables to restore the destroyed infrastructure and energy supply. There is still no thematic fund or ETF on the beneficiaries of the reconstruction in Ukraine. Investors who want to benefit from this are therefore well advised to combine several securities into a portfolio themselves.

Geberit CEO expects construction industry to continue to shrink in 2024

Christian Buhl, CEO of the sanitary technology group Geberit $GEBN (-0,43 %) predicts that the European construction industry will continue to shrink in 2024, particularly in the new construction sector.

In an interview with the NZZ, he emphasized that this represents one of the biggest slumps in new residential construction in Geberit's core markets in decades.

Although short-term predictions are difficult, Buhl emphasized the importance of a long-term perspective. Despite a decline in sales in 2023, Geberit has increased investments in production facilities in order to differentiate itself from competitors. Buhl emphasizes that the demand for sanitary products such as toilets will remain constant.

When asked about the cluster risk in Germany, which accounts for around 30% of Geberit's sales, Buhl explains that this risk is relative. When the market is going badly, one speaks of a cluster risk, but when market conditions are good, one does not speak of a cluster opportunity. He also emphasizes that Central Europe remains the most profitable market with the most attractive margins for the global sanitary industry.

So where is the German construction industry headed? What do you think?

Are you invested in Swiss companies?

At the top of my list is $NESN (-0,57 %) and (which is rarely mentioned here) $GEBN (-0,43 %) to buy. Do you have any other companies in your portfolio or are you considering buying?

Monday:

Real estate crisis in Germany 🇩🇪 and in China 🇨🇳, Country Garden falters in China. The next project developer after China Evergrande. In Germany, Development Partner, the Project Group and Euroboden are three project developers sliding into insolvency. The effects in China, however, would be more drastic. A large part of the global assets are in the Chinese real estate market, which is considered to be highly overvalued.

$NWO Xing (New Work) earns less money. Sales stagnated, earnings were 24% below the previous year's level. The reasons are fewer paid memberships and higher personnel expenses.

$FOXT (+0,99 %) Foxconn lowers forecast, Apple's contract manufacturer suffers from generally low demand for consumer electronics.

The inflation rate in #indien 🇮🇳 is rising significantly. The reason for this is rising food prices. Inflation rises to 7.44% in July. The forecast was only 6.6%.

Tuesday:

Chinese growth appears to be slowing right now. The central bank announces a surprise interest rate cut. Industrial production was only 3.7% above the previous year's level instead of the expected 4.4%. The interest rate cut further devalues the national currency, supports the economy and makes imports from China even more attractive.

Possible downgrade of the creditworthiness of the major US banks. This step is currently being considered by the rating agency Fitch and is causing uncertainty on the markets.

Wednesday:

Hangover on the stock market - after the record highs in the DAX, prices are currently falling again. Among other things, the bad Chinese economic data, as well as the possible downgrade in U.S. banks, cloud the mood. In addition, it became known that Michael Burry once again shorts the market.

Matching the new expert recommendation from the Ministry of Economic Affairs, it is known that the Norwegian sovereign wealth fund is again making record profits. The fund grew by 130 billion euros to 1.3 trillion euros.

The FED minutes show above all that the central bankers are at odds. As already communicated, the next interest rate decisions will probably be data-driven. There is much to be said for a pause in interest rates, but there could also be a further increase.

Thursday:

$CSCO (+0,45 %) Cisco expects lower revenue growth, but was able to increase profits significantly.

The Swiss sanitary technology group $GEBN (-0,43 %) Geberit is selling less due to the construction slump. The Group therefore expects a decline in sales for the full year.

Hi, somewhere in the feed there was a story...

It was about which listed companies you come into contact with in everyday life.

Somehow that appealed to me, and I thought to myself, that would be something where I could actively participate....

So....

After the morning bath visit with among other things products of $UN or $PG (+1,29 %) are used, comes directly already a hot drink from $NESTS.

Then I pack my service laptop of $HPQ (+1,03 %) with $INTC (+0,12 %) inside, as well as my tablet and cell phone $SMSD (-0,49 %) and $AAPL (+0,75 %) in the bag and make me on the way.

Then I realize schei.... what forgotten, and run back to the bathroom again and mount my wristwatch from $UHRN (-0,23 %) and the glasses from $FIE (+0,36 %)

The way to work I do relatively comfortably in a $F (-1,03 %), the ride is secured by $ALV (+0,14 %).

On the way I get me depending on my mood still a croissant from $ARZTY. On the about 50km long distance on the highway I meet of course all other manufacturers $BMW (+0,12 %)
$VOW3 (-0,17 %)
$DTG (+0,54 %)
$MBG (+0,52 %)
$N/A and in Switzerland drive relatively many $TSLA (+6,13 %) and of course many more...

Shortly before I then in my Bude $CARL A (-0,19 %) arrive, I still drive at the headquarters of $ROG (-1,82 %) and $NOVN (-0,37 %) headquarters...

When I arrive at the desk, I see the keyboard of $LOGN (-0,37 %) ...

How should it be different na of course we work with $SAP (+1,14 %).

So that I do not freeze runs in the Bude ne heating from $MTG (-2,26 %)

After I have worked hard, my hands need a break and a bit of care $BEI (+1,57 %).

I look then with pleasure also times in my depot which does itself at the stock market so $CBK (+1,88 %).

Every now and then I have to do some research. $GOOG (+1,23 %). Our IT runs of course not without $CSCO. (+0,45 %)

During the break I like to have a drink with colleagues $PEP (+0,4 %) with colleagues, or we serve ourselves on the 2nd floor $SCHP (-1,12 %) at the inhouse vending machine of $SBUX (+2,34 %).

After the coffee a visit to the toilet may not be missing, surely pipes of $GEBN (-0,43 %) installed.

Professionally I call a lot, our provider $SCMN (-1,06 %)

Not directly in my job, but in the gaff drive insanely many devices from $JUN3 (+0,08 %) and $KGX (+0,74 %) which I can observe from the break room.

In my department we also have many products from $MMM (+0,13 %) in use.

In the afternoons, I test products and their flow properties from $DGE as part of my job. In the past, I also tested $BUD products, but we stopped working together.

On the way home I fill up with gas at $SHEL (+0,74 %) and because life is so good, I get a little cash at $CSGN

Oh yes I forgot to mention my shoes from $ADS (+0,89 %) on which I am comfortable all day on the road ...

Well, and when I'm back home, my wife has me a little luck something delicious from $GIS (+1,15 %) maybe even with a sauce from $KHC (+0,4 %) cooked...

Rivian - The electric vehicle startup, obtained 20% by Amazon ( $AMZ (+1,77 %) ) , is seeking $8.4 billion in funding through the IPO. This would make it the third largest IPO in the U.S. in the last 10 years. Rivian would be valued at $53 billion, almost as much as Honda ( $HDM (+1,44 %) A share is expected to cost between $57 and $62.

In October, Amazon ordered 100,000 electric delivery vehicles from Rivian, which is building a brand of electric SUVs and pickups in parallel with this production.

Fed - The Federal Reserve holds its interest rate meeting today, at which the U.S. central bank will likely announce a reduction in its bond-buying program. As a result, speculation about a possible interest rate hike next year is already in the air.

In advance, the markets are very positive and remain well oriented. According to CMC Markets analyst Jochen Stanzl, this change in monetary policy is no longer a major factor for the stock markets. The reason is that the quarterly figures are still very positive.

Lufthansa ( $LHA (+1,63 %) ) - In the third quarter, Deutsche Lufthansa nearly doubled its revenue. Revenue rose 96 percent to 5.2 billion euros in the months of July through September. The adjusted loss before interest and taxes fell to 17 million, compared with 1.262 billion in the same period last year. This is an "important step" to get out of the crisis, said group CEO Carsten Spohr. The Group expects to be able to continue to increase its revenue over the full year 2021.

HelloFresh ( $HFG (+2 %) ) - HelloFresh raised its revenue guidance again on the back of strong growth in the current fiscal year through October. Core revenues increased to €1.416 billion from €970 million in the same period last year. This is due to strong customer growth and a continued high order rate as well as high average order values. The adjusted operating margin before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization is expected to be between 8.25 and 10.25 percent.

G20 - The global minimum tax is due in 2023. Any company with annual sales of more than €750,000 will pay a 15 percent tax on its profits. Large digital companies must have at least €20 billion in revenue and a pre-tax profit margin of at least 10 percent to be covered by the global sales tax. Amazon ( $AMZ (+1,77 %) ) would then be spared its 5% margin, while Apple ( $APC (+0,75 %) ) would be asked to pay. Tax havens would also become less attractive, as the tax burden would not fall on the home countries, as is currently the case, but on the market countries, i.e. where most of the turnover is generated.

El Salvador - With the surplus from the El Salvador Bitcoin Trust, the country wants to build 20 new "Bitcoin schools." After another purchase of 420 BTC ( $BTC-EUR (+0,02 %) ), the government currently holds 1,120 BTC in its Bitcoin Trust account. Already in mid-October, President Nayib Bukele announced the allocation of four million US dollars from the Bitcoin Trust for the construction of a new veterinary hospital.

Squid Game - The coin bearing the abbreviation SQUID, which alludes to the Netflix series Squid Game, shocked the crypto scene yesterday. The coin was launched last Thursday at a starting price of $0.01. Within 4 days, the price increased by an incredible 380,000.00% to $38 on Monday morning. After further growth, the price rose to $89 the same day. However, the journey was not to end there. Within 3 hours, one event followed another. The price of SQUID reached an incredible $2,861.80 and just 5 minutes later, the coin collapsed 99.99% to $0.0007926.

In addition, the website that was promoting the coin is no longer online. It is also known that many SQUID holders were unable to sell their positions after a while, so they could only sit on their hands. It was therefore a "rug-pull", i.e. the promoters of the project sold it and went underground with the profits. In addition, it is now clear that there is no connection with Netflix or other representatives of the series.

In the run-up, the markets present themselves in a very positive mood and continue to be on a strong course. According to analyst Jochen Stanzl of CMC Markets, this monetary policy change no longer represents a supporting burden for the stock markets.
