Alternative to DroneShield and Standard Lithium! NEO Battery Materials set to take off in 2026! Drones, robotics, and more in one stock

  • Batteries

  • Drones
  • defense
  • Electromobility
  • Robotics

Drones, robotics, and electromobility are megatrends. Billions of dollars in capital are flowing into these industries. As a result, DroneShield and Standard Lithium were among the high flyers of the year. However, after share price gains of 330% and 170% respectively, they are anything but cheap. NEO Battery Materials has what it takes to become a price rocket in 2026. The Canadian company has developed more cost-effective, silicon-reinforced batteries that offer higher storage capacity and faster charging. Very importantly, commercialization is set to begin in 2026 at a factory in South Korea. Orders are already in place, and shortly before Christmas, NEO Battery became part of South Korea's defense industry ecosystem.

Three potential takeover candidates for 2026: Puma, RENK, and CHAR Technologies

  • cleantech
  • renewableenergy
  • Defense
  • Sportswear
  • Investments

Which companies could become acquisition targets in 2026, and where might shareholders benefit from strategic interest? Three names stand out. From the booming energy sector, CHAR Technologies is attracting attention. The Canadian company has only recently been listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, but has already completed its development phase and is targeting strong revenue growth. CHAR benefits from strong partners such as ArcelorMittal, which could easily manage an acquisition. RENK is also a candidate: anchor shareholder KNDS could make good strategic use of an acquisition in the context of its IPO story, and the former RENK CFO is already on board. Things are also likely to remain interesting at Puma. According to analysts, a takeover premium of around 30% could be on the cards.

Comeback 2026! Tenfold potential? Evotec, Gerresheimer, and Desert Gold shares!

  • Mining

  • Commodities
  • Biotechnology
  • manufacturing
  • Investments

Looking for a potential ten-bagger in the gold sector? Analysts believe this could be possible for Desert Gold. The recently published PEA for the flagship gold project is triggering new price speculation. This could finally end the years-long sideways trend and allow the stock to take off. Investors had hoped for a turnaround in 2025 at Evotec. Instead, the biotech stock continued its downward trend. The strategy of the new management team does not appear to have convinced major shareholders either. Gerresheimer was an unpleasant surprise in 2025. At the turn of the year, the Company is at least engaged in damage control. But how significant is the loss of confidence?

Big news at the turn of the year! Nordex, Novo Nordisk, AJN Resources!

  • Mining
  • Gold
  • Commodities
  • renewableenergy
  • Biotechnology

Is now the time for gold explorers? The price of gold remains firmly above USD 4,300 per ounce, and shares of gold producers are performing well, perhaps even a little too well. Investors looking to continue participating in the gold bull market may therefore turn their attention to exploration companies. One such candidate is AJN Resources. The stock has already moved higher, yet still offers upside potential, supported by takeover speculation. Novo Nordisk has submitted an application for US approval following convincing Phase 3 results, a step that would be strategically significant for the Company. Meanwhile, Nordex remains one of the positive surprises of 2025, having reported another major order. The key question now is how far can the rally go?

GOLD or SILVER? Both? Barrick Mining, First Majestic Silver, and Silver North Resources in focus!

  • Mining

  • Investments

Gold and silver are not taking a break just before Christmas. The prices of precious metals are rising and rising. For silver, some experts' price target of USD 100 no longer seems unrealistic. First Majestic Silver's stock has performed even better. There is little choice among silver producers, and prices seem to be running hot. A shift to explorers in the coming year would come as no surprise. Silver North Resources is entering the new year with full coffers and positive results and aims to resume drilling as soon as possible. The Company is active in legally secure Canada, and its shares are attractive for investors. Those who missed the opportunity to invest in Barrick Mining in 2025 missed out on a threefold increase in value. The Company is also likely to have a few surprises in store in 2026. Perhaps even a hostile takeover?

Uranium, Quantum, or Hydrogen? Should you buy D-Wave, Plug Power, or American Atomics now?

Is the price of uranium about to jump above the USD 100 mark? Analysts believe this could happen as early as next year. After a mixed 2025, a significant upward trend is anticipated. In the US in particular, nuclear energy is increasingly seen as a key solution to the growing energy demand driven by the boom in data centers. One company set to benefit is American Atomics. In an interview, the head of this hidden gem describes the prospects. The hype surrounding Plug Power has faded again. Investors' hopes for a sustained upward trend have once again been dashed. Is an improvement on the horizon? And what are the prospects for high-flyer D-Wave Quantum? A recent study is giving the sector a boost.

Silver and critical raw materials are on the rise! Standard Lithium, First Majestic Silver, and Antimony Resources!

  • Mining
  • antimony
  • Lithium
  • Silver
  • CriticalMetals

The price of silver is simply unstoppable. The price per troy ounce is now over USD 57. First Majestic Silver is capitalizing on the sentiment and completing the sale of the Del Toro project. This will bring millions into the Company and make it a strategic shareholder in Sierra Madre. In the critical metals sector, rare earths are clearly the focus. However, there are other raw materials that are at least as sought-after and scarce. These include antimony. The recent billion-dollar deal between the US government and Korea Zinc highlights the strategic importance of antimony. An attractive stock in this sector is Antimony Resources. Q1 2026 should be exciting. In contrast, experts advise caution with lithium. Shareholders of Standard Lithium should also take note of this.

Milestone for Almonty Industries! Full order books at RENK and TKMS! Here is what analysts say

  • Mining
  • Tungsten
  • Investments
  • Defense

A milestone for Almonty Industries: the tungsten mine in South Korea goes into operation. This positions the raw material gem for strong revenue and earnings growth in the coming years. Analyst estimates are based on significantly lower prices and could therefore be too conservative. The stock is rebounding. Defense stocks are currently being weighed down by the possibility of peace in Ukraine, but order books remain well filled. Shortly before Christmas, RENK is celebrating a million-euro order from the German Armed Forces for various tanks. TKMS has no worries about revenue for the coming years, with an order backlog of EUR 18.5 billion, nearly nine times its annual sales. Analysts recommend buying.

Puma takeover at EUR 27.50? D-Wave wants a share of the government's billion-euro pot! Analysts believe Power Metallic Mines shares could rise 200%!

Will Puma be acquired at a price of EUR 27.50 per share? DZ Bank believes this is possible. Analysts believe a Chinese corporation is a likely candidate. The sporting goods icon does not seem to be able to spark any price speculation on its own at the moment. In contrast, Power Metallic Mines has made impressive progress in the current year, taking the Company to a new level. The share price does not reflect this. Analysts see 200% upside potential. The D-Wave Quantum share price is currently taking a break. Possible government contracts could bring new excitement. To land these, the quantum specialist is setting up its own business unit.

Drone defense and nearly 10% fixed interest! DroneShield, Hensoldt, Bitcoin Group, Nakiki

Is Germany now getting serious about drone defense? A new drone defense center was opened in Berlin yesterday, aiming to provide a nationwide overview of the situation and a coordinated response to drone incidents. DroneShield and Hensoldt are among the beneficiaries on the stock market when it comes to drones and their defense. Will the shares now receive new momentum? Bitcoin is not currently experiencing any momentum. However, this is actually a desirable scenario for Nakiki SE. The Company plans to buy Bitcoin in the coming months and become Germany's first pure play Bitcoin Treasury company. To this end, Nakiki is currently issuing a corporate bond. Investors can secure a fixed interest rate of almost 10% p.a. and diversify their portfolio. The CEO explains why the Bitcoin bond is interesting. In contrast, Bitcoin Group has missed the boat, and now short sellers are also getting involved.
