The massive subsidy programmes around the globe are also being felt on capital markets. Hydrogen shares, for instance, have long been among the winners on the stock market. Even the coronavirus pandemic has had little impact on the prices of the H\u2082 specialists. Fuel cell manufacturers in particular, such as the Swedish PowerCell and the Canadian Ballard Power, have enjoyed especially high attention on trading floors and seen their share prices more than double and triple respectively over the last twelve months. Fuel cells play an important role in hydrogen-based mobility, among other areas. According to predictions from the Hydrogen Council, as many as 3 to 4 million of the trucks and vans around the world and over 1 million taxis could be operated with fuel cells by 2030. Fuel cells are not just able to drive vehicles, however: they also offer a clean energy source for computers through to complete houses.<\/p>\n
If the many different opportunities in the fast-growing hydrogen sector are to be exploited, broadly diversified investment solutions in particular could make sense. This is because there are many players in the still young market, making it difficult to predict which companies will manage to survive in the long term. What is more, some industry representatives are still operating at a loss. Leonteq is offering interested investors two promising investment strategies with tracker certificates on the \"Swissquote Hydrogen Index\"<\/a><\/strong> and the \"H\u2082 Technology Index\"<\/a><\/strong>. The first of these indices currently includes 22 international hydrogen companies, which are reviewed regularly. In addition to the fuel specialists mentioned above, the gas groups Air Liquide and Linde, US commercial vehicle giant Cummins and carmakers such as BMW are also on board. At the moment Toyota is the dominant heavyweight. The Japanese company is regarded as a pioneer of H\u2082 technology. It was the Toyota Mirai that was the world's first saloon car equipped with a fuel cell to go into mass production in 2014. The index also contains a passive fund in the shape of the Aberdeen Standard Physical Palladium Shares ETF. Palladium is an important precious metal in the manufacture of a fuel cell.<\/p>\n The performance speaks for itself: since the actively managed certificate on the Swissquote Hydrogen Index<\/a><\/strong> was launched in mid-February 2020, the product has appreciated more than 150% in price. Issued in USD, the participating instrument comes with an unlimited term, reflecting the long-term character of the investment. The same approach is also used for the H\u2082 Technology Index<\/a><\/strong>. The tracker on the strategy barometer managed by Hamburg asset manager Albrecht, Kitta & Co. likewise has an open-ended structure. This index, too, follows a diversified approach: the 16 members included cover the entire value chain of the hydrogen sector, with industries from H\u2082 generation through storage to distribution all represented.<\/p>\n Management Fee: 1.10% p.a.<\/strong><\/p>\n Index Sponsor: Albrecht, Kitta & Co. Vermögensverwaltung GmbH<\/strong><\/p>\n Issuer: Leonteq Securities AG<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/template>\n <\/SavedSearch>\n <\/div>\n Although the H\u2082 Technology Index<\/a><\/strong> has a global orientation, companies which are based in the USA are not considered, in contrast to the Swissquote Hydrogen Index<\/a><\/strong>. The individual members are reweighted in the quarterly rebalancing process. Weightings must be at least 2.5% and not more than 10% in order to counteract clustering. The clever investment solution from Hamburg asset manager Albrecht, Kitta & Co. likewise boasts an impressive track record, albeit a relatively short one: launched in September 2020, the tracker has since climbed by a little more than 50%. The product comes with a fair annual management fee of 1.1%. Just 0.8% p.a. is charged for the participating instrument on the Swissquote Hydrogen Index.<\/p>\n We look forward to answering all of your questions about our products and how they are traded.
