Schröder's List of Secondary Assets: Aixtron, Stabilus, Sixt, Verbio - Investment Opportunities on a Sizzling Summer!
In the heart of Europe, Germany's stock market is witnessing a surge of growth, with several companies showing promising potential, particularly in the current heatwave. Among these, Pfisterer, Aixtron, Stabilus SE, Sixt, and Verbio are making waves.
Pfisterer, a power grid equipment specialist, has been a standout performer. Debuting on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange in mid-May 2025, the company's shares began at €27 and quickly climbed to €38.45 within weeks. With a strong first quarter and a positive outlook for the year, Pfisterer's performance is closely tied to the critical energy infrastructure needs during extreme weather conditions like heatwaves [1][2][3].
While Aixtron, Stabilus SE, Sixt, and Verbio haven't seen direct heatwave-related growth yet, their sectors—semiconductors, automotive components, mobility, and biofuels—carry solid growth potential. European equities, including German companies, have been on an upward trajectory in 2025, thanks to improving market sentiment and reduced volatility [4].
Potential growth drivers for each company are as follows:
- Pfisterer: Energy infrastructure upgrades, grid resilience during heatwaves - Aixtron: Demand for semiconductor production equipment, innovation in chip technology - Stabilus SE: Recovery in the automotive sector, electric vehicle growth, industrial automation - Sixt: Increased travel post-pandemic, growth in car rental and ride-sharing, fleet electrification trends - Verbio: Growing renewable energy demand, energy transition policies, potential boost from energy price volatility during heatwaves
Investors are keeping a close eye on Pfisterer's post-IPO momentum, while considering Aixtron, Stabilus SE, Sixt, and Verbio for sector-driven medium-to-long-term growth aligned with technology, mobility, and renewable energy trends.
Meanwhile, Sixt, the car rental company, has seen its share price fall due to weaker earnings in Q1 and unrest in the Middle East. However, as a subscriber to the Real-Depot, investors are immediately involved when lucrative opportunities arise on the stock market. The Real-Depot, a service focused on discovering promising small and mid-cap opportunities beyond the DAX stage, has positions in Sixt and Stabilus [5].
The Verbio share has made significant gains recently, and the Aixtron share has recovered by over 80% from its low. The Real-Depot's real-money portfolio focuses on short-term scenarios within a few weeks, but some positions are held for months to maximise returns. However, the Real-Depot is not specified to focus on the current situation at Sixt or the role of US President Donald Trump in the journey of the Stabilus share [6].
For a deeper understanding of these investments, Michael Schröder, editor of the investor magazine DER AKTIONÄR, provides answers to these questions in a video. It's important to note that while the Real-Depot offers valuable insights, its subscribers are not guaranteed to make profits from the investments made [7].
As the heatwave continues and Germany navigates its economic recovery, these five companies—Pfisterer, Aixtron, Stabilus SE, Sixt, and Verbio—are poised to make significant strides, offering exciting opportunities for investors.
