On one hand, we are chasing the tiniest particles of the quantum world and building massive data centers for artificial intelligence, which is fundamentally transforming our lives. On the other hand, in uncertain times, we are turning once again to humanity's oldest promise: the glittering gold deep within the earth. In this report, we take a close look at three companies, each of which is "on the move" in one of these fields and yet together can define a portfolio of the future. We accompany D-Wave Quantum as it attempts to push the boundaries of logic. We look over Super Micro Computer's shoulder as it builds the physical backbone of the AI revolution. And finally, we arrive at Lahontan Gold, where an impressive blend of fresh capital and state-of-the-art drilling technology is being used to "bring old gold treasures back to life." Read on, because this mix of high-tech and commodity power could be exactly what is missing from a promising portfolio.

Tungsten is crucial to the security of modern defense systems and the future of high technology. This raw material is a strategic key where China has held almost all the cards until now. But with the commissioning of the legendary Sangdong mine in South Korea, Almonty Industries has now opened a new chapter in industrial history. After more than 30 years of inactivity, ore is once again flowing from one of the richest deposits on Earth. This project means far more than just mining and tungsten extraction. It marks the beginning of independence and the establishment of a strategic alliance with the West. The enormous market potential is prompting analysts to raise their price targets and making Almonty the new lifeline for Western industries. It is the success story of an impressive company that has permanently shifted, and continues to shift, the global balance of power in the raw materials sector.

The geopolitical tensions of recent years have brought a fundamental truth to light. Security is not just a matter of tanks and soldiers, but increasingly a race for technological superiority. While established, large companies like Rheinmetall are securing record orders and DroneShield is trying to secure the skies above our heads, a third player is quietly moving into the center of power: NEO Battery Materials. Today, it is no longer just about who builds the best drone, but also about who keeps it in the air the longest and most efficiently. In a world where conflicts like those in Iran or Ukraine are decided by autonomous systems, traditional armaments and state-of-the-art battery technology are merging into a single entity. We take a look behind the scenes of an industry that offers completely new opportunities for investors right now.

How do you turn wind into money? Is that even possible? Looking at the current momentum in the markets, the answer appears to be a resounding yes. While the world debates climate goals, some companies are making moves that delight investors. Today, we are looking at a trio driving the global energy transition. From the explosive stock surge of a long-established Hamburg-based company to the strategic Far East plans of a Danish global market leader, all the way to an innovative financing model from overseas that is shaking up the sector from a completely different angle. It is about real substance, massive order books, and the question of where long-term returns truly "reside." In the world of renewables, a rather strong wind is currently blowing, revealing opportunities that will not come around again anytime soon.

The Commodities Bet for 2026: Why Desert Gold Ventures Could Outperform Barrick Mining and How K+S is Benefiting from the Iran War

  • Commodities
  • fertilizer
  • potash

In the spring of 2026, the gold market is in a phase of extreme volatility that sends shivers down the spines of traders. Following a spectacular all-time high of over USD 5,400 per troy ounce in January, gold is now trading sideways in a volatile range of roughly USD 5,000–5,200. Investors are watching intently the players who extract this precious metal from the earth. At the centre of this is the exciting question of whether "smaller companies" like Desert Gold Ventures will outpace the sluggish giant producers. While Barrick Mining struggles with an unprecedented cost spiral, Desert Gold Ventures is already poised in Mali for its first production. This picture is complemented by a strategic look at K+S, which is currently benefiting from the war in Iran, as 30% of fertilizers pass through the Strait of Hormuz. Who is betting on the right commodity stocks now and will profit from them in 2026?

The politically driven energy transition was meant to change a lot, but while many are still discussing distant dreams, three companies are already creating tangible results today. This goes beyond environmental protection; it is about the radical conversion of waste into valuable energy and helping heavy industry avoid CO2 collapse. Among them, Canada's CHAR Technologies stands out, making the virtually impossible possible with a unique high-temperature technology and recently raising fresh capital for its next big leap. CHAR is not alone.

Mining without excavators: Franco-Nevada, Triple Flag, and Globex Mining compared

  • Mining
  • royalties
  • PreciousMetals

After a long dry spell, mining stocks are back in vogue. However, operating mines comes with its own risks. Geological challenges, technical failures, rising energy costs, or labor strikes can quickly disrupt operations. There is, however, a clever alternative: so-called royalty and streaming companies. These firms benefit from mining activity without having to drill holes in the ground themselves. In this article, we compare three representatives of this business model across different size classes: Franco-Nevada, an established industry giant; Triple Flag Precious Metals, a mid-tier player; and Globex Mining Enterprises, a (still) small but particularly diversified challenger.

This field is flanked by heavyweights such as ConocoPhillips, which acts as an anchor of stability in the energy sector. In this report, we highlight why these three very different stocks could be on the move right now in a world of shiny silver, rare metals, and global energy supply, and why they could be an asset to your portfolio.
