Shareholders of SGL Carbon SE ( ETR:SGL ) will be pleased this week, given that the stock price is up 14% to €4.28...

Daimler Truck stock came into the Q2 print after a strong 90 day run and a share price of €46.72, yet today's reaction is all about one thing. The profit engine looks far less powerful than the revenue line suggests. Q2 revenue reached €12,292m, but net income from ongoing operations was €117m and trailing net profit margin over the last year sat near 2.4%. For long term holders this is shaping up as a margin story. The key question is how much multi year earnings growth can realistically...

In August 2026, ChargePoint Holdings announced it had extended its partnership with Mercedes-Benz AG to offer fully integrated AC and DC charging solutions, software, and ongoing services for fleet and workplace customers in the UK and Germany, with plans to expand into additional markets. This deeper collaboration embeds Mercedes-Benz more firmly in the electric vehicle ecosystem for business fleets, aligning its premium vehicle offering with turnkey charging, energy management, and...

LANXESS went into this earnings day priced like a problem stock. The share price closed at €16.43, roughly flat over the past week and down about 11% over three months, even with a small rebound over the last month. The market has been treating the chemicals group as a restructuring story with weak profitability. The headline from Q2 is simple. LANXESS is still loss making, with a basic loss per share of €0.62, but the company lifted revenue to €1,561m and cut the quarterly net loss to €53m...

Allianz stock closed at €433.50 going into the Q2 release, after a steady three month climb of about 17%. The immediate focus today is on profit quality. Core net income for the first half reached €6.4b, with record operating profit of €9.4b and a Solvency II capital ratio of 225% that marks a high point since 2018. In the very short term traders may focus on quarterly earnings per share volatility. Longer term investors are more likely to weigh this capital strength and profit profile...

Münchener Rückversicherungs Gesellschaft in München came into this print with the stock roughly flat over the past week and up modestly over three months, trading at €515.4 into the Q2 release. The headline is simple and powerful for a reinsurer. Profitability was the standout. Net income reached €2.214b in the quarter, supported by a group return on equity of 23%, which sits comfortably above management’s Ambition 2030 hurdle. For investors, the key question now is how long this...

Next week’s solar eclipse and ongoing heatwaves are putting Europe’s power grid under pressure, with solar, nuclear, coal and hydropower all strained at the same time.

This article walks through 3 such stocks from the screener and what this could mean for your portfolio. The three stocks highlighted below are just a...

IONOS Group (XTRA:IOS) has drawn fresh investor attention after reporting half year 2026 results that show higher revenue alongside lower net income and mixed earnings per share trends compared with the prior year. See our latest analysis for IONOS Group. IONOS Group's recent half year 2026 update appears to have coincided with building momentum in the stock, with a 1 month share price return of 9.92% and a 3 month share price return of 16.12%, even though the 1 year total shareholder return...

AIXTRON (XTRA:AIXA) is back in focus after reporting second quarter 2026 results and confirming its raised full year guidance, while also issuing fresh revenue guidance for the upcoming third quarter. See our latest analysis for AIXTRON. AIXTRON's share price has climbed 2.5% over the last day and 10.6% over the past week, yet it remains down 19.8% over three months, even after a year to date share price return of 104.8% and a 1 year total shareholder return of 195.1%. These figures point to...

See our latest analysis for Allianz.

Bayerische Motoren Werke (XTRA:BMW) is back in focus after its second quarter 2026 earnings showed lower sales and net income, as investors weigh softer demand, China exposure, and a planned workforce reduction. See our latest analysis for Bayerische Motoren Werke. At a share price of €59.78, Bayerische Motoren Werke has seen short term support with a 1 month share price return of 2.01%. However, momentum has clearly faded given the 90 day share price decline of 26.94% and 1 year total...

HOMAG Group came into this earnings release with a stock that had barely moved over the past month, yet the latest results tell a very different story. The company now carries a trailing P/E of 16.4x, below both the German machinery industry and peer averages, while still trading above a discounted cash flow estimate of €20.06 at €24.6. At the same time, net profit margins are reported as sharply higher than a year ago. The real question for you is whether this rebound in profitability is...

Merck KGaA went into this earnings print with a strong three month share run of about 27%, and the stock closed at €143.65 on 7 August. That kind of move implies investors were already leaning toward a positive story. The headline from the quarter is margin pressure that sits uncomfortably against that optimism. Trailing net profit margin slipped from 13.2% to 12.1%, even as the stock trades at a P/E of 24.7x and carries only a 1.53% dividend yield. The gap between valuation and profitability...

Siemens went into this earnings day with the stock at €280, roughly flat over the past week after a solid 3 month run, and the market had already priced in a lot of optimism. The results justify why investors were willing to pay up. Quarterly net income from ongoing operations reached €2,265m on revenue of €20,794m, while the industrial business printed a 17.3% margin and free cash flow hit €4.1b. Management backed that up with a higher full year earnings per share range and a fresh €6b...

The market has treated Fraport like a value story hiding in plain sight, with the stock slipping over the past month even as the airport operator posted a clean return to quarterly profit. Today’s Q2 headline is simple: the recovery in earnings power is back on the runway. Revenue reached €1,220.2m in the quarter and basic earnings per share came in at €0.75 after a loss in Q1. That kind of swing in profitability, set against a P/E that screens lower than peers, is what will frame the debate...

SGL Carbon went into this earnings day with a stock that has quietly climbed 14.1% over the past week and 8.8% over the past month, despite a weak 3 month patch. The market has been treating it as a cheap turnaround story, trading near €4.28 with a low price to sales multiple and a discounted cash flow value pointing higher. Today’s Q2 numbers keep that turnaround story in focus. Revenue stands at €209.7m and basic earnings per share sit at €0.05. The headline is simple: profit is back on a...

The new 15% tariff on imported polysilicon has suddenly turned a behind the scenes raw material into front page portfolio risk. Supply chains that quietly fed solar and semiconductor growth now face new winners and losers. For investors, this is where mispricing can appear as the market reassesses who gains pricing power and who gets squeezed. This article walks through three stocks exposed to the tariff shock, two potentially helped and one hurt. Wacker Chemie (XTRA:WCH) Wacker Chemie is a...

Henkel KGaA stock has been grinding higher in recent weeks, with a 90 day return of roughly 23%, and it went into this earnings print already priced for something better than dull. The headline today is that the earnings story is more about pressure than celebration. Net profit margin on a trailing basis sits at 9.4%, a touch below last year, while basic earnings per share for the latest half year are below the prior year’s first half. For short term traders that soft undercurrent matters...

Bayer (XTRA:BAYN) is back in focus after its Q2 2026 earnings beat, a swing to profit, stronger Crop Science performance supported by U.S. dicamba approvals, and a reduced year end net debt outlook. See our latest analysis for Bayer. At a share price of €49.81, Bayer has picked up momentum, with a 90 day share price return of 34.69% and a 1 year total shareholder return of 94.26%, even though the 3 year total shareholder return declined 4.14%. This suggests recent enthusiasm has followed the...

Rheinmetall stock closed today at €1,147.6 after a choppy few weeks that left the 90 day return slightly in decline. The market has been wrestling with a high growth story that still carries plenty of volatility. That tension sharpened with Q2, where revenue reached €3,365m and basic earnings per share printed at €6.29. The near term story is centered on profit power. Trailing twelve month basic earnings per share now sit at €26.00 and net income from continuing operations is €1.36b. For...

The market has treated SUSS MicroTec like a high‑beta semiconductor pure play, with the stock up about 11.8% over the past week and roughly 8.9% over the past month into this Q2 print. That sets the bar high. The headline today is margin pressure. Net profit margin on a trailing basis sits at 5.9% compared with 11.8% a year earlier, while the stock still trades on a 61.2x trailing P/E. The emotional trade is growth optimism, and the fundamental question is how long investors will tolerate...
