Nel ASA, Plug Power, and A.H.T. Syngas: Which cleantech energy stock shines the brightest?
The renewable energy sector is making a strong comeback on the stock market in 2026, particularly in recent weeks. However, the former high-flyers of the hydrogen industry, Nel and Plug, are again struggling to meet market expectations and ambitious valuations. We take a look at the Scandinavian hydrogen pioneer Nel ASA, the US heavyweight Plug Power, and the European plant manufacturer A.H.T. Syngas. We examine whether mainstream stocks currently offer the best return opportunities, or whether perhaps a niche player is the true winner of the green transformation? Read on to find out which of these companies are currently setting the stage for massive growth.

AI data centers need nuclear power — 70-100% more energy by 2050! Spotlight on American Atomics, SAP, and ServiceNow
The global economy is in the midst of a new infrastructure supercycle, in which the new source of productivity is being sought in the widespread use of digitalization and AI. The physical foundations of extensive AI use are creating unprecedented demand for system components related to energy generation and storage. Electricity, grids, cooling, and raw materials—the demand seems endless. Yet just a few years ago, climate goals were still a major concern. With the explosive growth in demand from data centers, not only are energy sources like nuclear power coming to the fore, but also critical metals for turbines, cables, storage systems, and chips. Goldman Sachs expects data center electricity demand to more than double by the end of the decade—a scenario that makes CO₂-free baseload power a matter of strategic survival. Although nuclear power plants have been largely dismissed in the EU, they are once again moving to the center of the debate as reliable electricity suppliers and are becoming serious partners for tech companies. A deeper look is worthwhile.

Are Dividend Strategies on the Brink? Restructuring Pressure at Procter & Gamble and Coca-Cola – Hidden Gem: RE Royalties
Inflationary pressures and geopolitical upheavals are forcing even market leaders in traditional dividend sectors to make structural adjustments. The era of purely volume-driven revenue growth is slowing, which is why companies such as Coca-Cola and Procter & Gamble are required to invest heavily to defend their operating margins. In this volatile market environment, investors are increasingly seeking reliable cash flows and stable dividend profiles. While established dividend aristocrats struggle with digital transformation and the divestment of non-core businesses, agile niche providers are moving into focus. The Canadian company RE Royalties applies a low-risk financing model inspired by the mining sector to the renewable energy industry, thereby generating scalable income streams. We explain how the model works and why investors have several good options with RE Royalties.

Big News at Plug Power! Steyr Motors and HPQ Silicon Poised for Strong Growth!
Big news at Plug Power! The hydrogen specialist is finally making progress on a major contract. Only through contracts like this can the company likely succeed in finally turning a profit and justifying its ambitious valuation. While Plug Power is focusing on electrolysis, HPQ Silicon aims to revolutionize hydrogen production through hydrolysis. And this is not the company's only growth driver. It also aims to take battery performance to a new level with new components. Drone tests are already impressive, and experts are calling it "the quiet battery revolution." Steyr Motors' stock stood out with relative strength during the sell-off in the defence sector. Yesterday, the stock jumped by around 7%. Analysts see significantly more upside potential for the specialty motor supplier.

Home Depot, Zefiro Methane, Rheinmetall – Security Boom and Energy Transition Spark New Price Potential
The next major stock market rally could emerge from completely different future markets. While rising defence spending worldwide is triggering a historic investment boom in the defence sector, the fight against methane emissions, fueled by billions in government subsidies, is evolving into a massive growth market. At the same time, falling interest rates and economic stabilization could massively revive the struggling real estate and renovation sectors. Whether in security, environmental technology, or consumer goods, several megatrends are converging, creating an explosive environment with enormous price potential for the coming years.

Panic in the Steel Sector - Geopolitical Dependencies Threaten Production: Strategic Resources, ArcelorMittal, and thyssenkrupp in Focus
Enormous regulatory pressure to decarbonize, escalating punitive tariffs, and a looming supply shortage of critical alloy metals are driving profound changes in the steel industry. The conversion of traditional blast furnaces to electric arc furnaces powered by electricity poses a challenge for corporations. The recycling of simple steel scrap can cause disruptive copper impurities to accumulate in the melt. The industry urgently requires massive quantities of high-purity pig iron for dilution to continue producing high-quality steel. However, since the supply chains for vanadium, a critical metal for the energy transition and alloys, are almost entirely controlled by autocratic states, Western companies are under pressure to act. Fortunately, the Canadian commodities company Strategic Resources is positioning itself as a supplier from multiple secure jurisdictions.

Roadmap to Production Is Set: Those Who Ignore Lahontan Gold Now May Regret It Later
The Canadian company Lahontan Gold is steadily advancing from explorer to mine developer in Nevada. Financing is secured, drilling is underway, and the roadmap is clearly defined. Those taking a closer look now can see a pattern of disciplined execution and tangible progress. This is not a speculative bet on a geological miracle, but rather the implementation of a concrete and well-structured plan. The coming months could demonstrate that a historic mining district can indeed be transformed into a new gold producer.

Running on Empty? Chaos Around Strategic Metals Drives Prices Higher– Power Metallic in Focus for BYD and Volkswagen
At USD 14,090, the price of copper reached a new all-time high in May. The demand slump predicted at the start of the year has apparently vanished into thin air. Instead, international commodity institutes are falling over themselves with forecasts of a projected shortfall over the next five years. The much-discussed copper shortage stems primarily from structurally rising demand driven by electrification, grid expansion, and data centers, while new mining projects are only coming online with delays and declining ore grades. Institutions such as the International Energy Agency (IEA), S&P Global, and CRU Group consistently anticipate growing supply deficits over the coming decade in their scenarios. The IEA, in particular, identifies potential supply gaps of several million tons by 2035 in its "Critical Minerals" analyses, depending on the pace of the energy transition. The crux of the matter is that even with high prices, mine development requires a lead time of 10 to 15 years, while existing deposits are simultaneously declining in quality. This poses a challenge for the market and investors!

Sell RENK Shares? Buy Standard Lithium or Globex Mining After the Correction?
Commotion at RENK! Major shareholder KNDS has unexpectedly cashed out. The sale of about 5% of RENK shares raised approximately EUR 269 million. Analysts find the reasoning behind the move implausible. Does KNDS perhaps intend to develop fewer land systems in the future? However, experts see no reason to panic. There are clear arguments in favour of buying Globex Mining Enterprises. Following the recent correction, the shares of this resource incubator appear attractively valued. For investors seeking reduced-risk exposure to the highly profitable exploration sector, the stock deserves close attention. The risks of individual explorers is illustrated by the performance of Standard Lithium. While Globex shares have risen 20% this year, Standard Lithium is down roughly 20%. The key question is whether recent news flow can trigger a turnaround.

Tungsten Market: High Tech and Weapons Drive Prices, Bank of America Boosts Almonty Industries!
China's dominance in raw materials, the geopolitical rivalry with the United States, and the conflict in the Persian Gulf are currently reshaping the geopolitical landscape. The West urgently needs to reduce its dependence on China for critical raw materials, although a complete decoupling is unlikely in the foreseeable future. Metals such as tungsten are at the center of this shift, as they are indispensable in the defence industry. This is driven not only by China's market control but also by Europe's ongoing rearmament efforts. Almonty Industries is in pole position in this context. The Canadian company operates one of the world's few large-scale tungsten mines in South Korea and could be among the first to provide relief through more secure supply chains. Analysts at Bank of America have recently reiterated their "Buy" recommendation, as the major growth surge in revenues and earnings is expected to begin only now.

150% Opportunity and Risk at the Same Time! Kobo Resources on the Verge of Gold, TUI, easyJet, and Lufthansa Attractively Valued
With extreme volatility expected in 2026, one thing remains clear: gold serves as a portfolio stabilizer. In an environment of rising inflation, increasing interest rates, and soaring commodity prices, precious metals have performed strongly so far. Due to the Iran conflict, travel and tourism stocks in particular have come under pressure, as they are affected by weaker travel demand, tighter household budgets, and ultimately higher fuel costs. But those who look beyond the immediate horizon recognize that crises are temporary, and fear-driven valuation discounts can create medium-term buying opportunities. For risk-conscious investors, these scenarios present investment opportunities that would not be expected under normal circumstances. For instance, Deutsche Lufthansa is currently trading at around 30% below its book value, while TUI is trading at a P/E ratio of about 5. Is this irrational? In the short term, perhaps not. In the long term, however, it may well be. As the saying goes: buy when the cannons thunder.

A Turning Point—But the Right One! Autonomous Warfare Forces Defence Giants to Act: Volatus Aerospace, Palantir, and DroneShield in the Spotlight
Security can no longer be taken for granted in Western democracies, and the geopolitical upheavals of recent years have prompted governments worldwide to act. Yet growing criticism of multi-billion-dollar defence spending often overlooks one key reality: today's investments are largely the consequence of political inaction over the past decade. Against this backdrop, an end to the global security and defence boom is highly unlikely. Modern conflicts can escalate rapidly into asymmetric, software- and drone-driven confrontations, placing increasing pressure on traditional defence contractors to adapt. To compensate for shortcomings in autonomous flight control and AI, established defence contractors are increasingly relying on inorganic growth and turning to technology pioneers. We take a closer look at this rapidly evolving market and present one particularly compelling stock opportunity.

Boom in the Oil Market: How TotalEnergies, Zefiro Methane, and Shell Are Benefiting!
The price of oil has remained around the USD 100 per barrel mark since the start of the war in the Persian Gulf. According to market experts and CEOs of various companies, shortages could occur in Europe in the coming weeks. This applies to both the supply of Europe's vehicle fleet and air traffic. That is because the price of jet fuel has nearly doubled since the end of February. Refineries in Rotterdam are therefore running at full capacity. But even in this market situation, there are winners. Many oil companies posted record profits in the first quarter. We are therefore taking a look today at the stocks of TotalEnergies and Shell. Moreover, the oil industry also has its downsides. In North America, Zefiro Methane is benefiting from this, as it plays an important role in combating emissions.

Battery Raw Materials Urgently Needed: Ford and BMW Under Pressure – Analysts Praise Power Metallic Mines
Declining ore grades in established mines, increasing geopolitical tensions, including conflicts and challenging regulatory requirements, are putting the supply of critical battery raw materials under strain, creating significant challenges for the automotive industry. While demand for lithium, nickel, and cobalt continues to rise sharply as electrification progresses, the mining sector is facing a structural productivity crisis. According to analyses by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD), mining productivity has halved since the late 1990s. As a result, automakers on both sides of the Atlantic are being forced to strengthen supply chain resilience through direct partnerships and strategic investments in emerging resource projects. The Canadian mining company Power Metallic Mines is positioning itself as a potential key partner in this evolving landscape.

Is Rheinmetall Stock a Bull Trap? D-Wave Faces Challenges! Hidden Gem Strategic Resources!
Rheinmetall shares have gained nearly 10% over the past few days. After Rheinmetall shares have gained nearly double digits over the past few days. After the sharp correction, the key question now is whether this marks the beginning of a sustained comeback — or merely a classic bull trap. Analysts, however, continue to recommend buying the stock and see potential for a move back toward all-time highs. In contrast, Strategic Resources remains a genuine hidden gem. The company has only recently started trading in Germany, yet its investment case appears increasingly compelling. Strategic Resources has access to critical metals and aims to build an attractive value-added supply chain around them. D-Wave's business model is also undeniably exciting. However, even after this year's correction, the valuation remains ambitious. This became clear again in light of the quarterly figures. Price targets for the quantum high-flyer have been slashed.
