Almonty Industries – Escalation level raised
The trade war between the US and China reached a new level last week. On "Liberation Day", US President Trump raised punitive tariffs to an incredible 125%, prompting China to respond with export controls on rare earth metals that are essential for the manufacture of electric motors, batteries, and magnets, as well as for the defense industry. Similar restrictions on gallium, germanium, and tungsten have also been in place since the end of last year. At least in the case of tungsten, which is needed for use in armor-piercing ammunition, for example, there are signs of easing tensions with the start of production at the Sangdong mine in South Korea. The operating company's share price, Almonty Industries, has partially met expectations in recent months, but analysts believe it still holds significant upside potential.

TSMC, NetraMark, and Siemens Energy defy the crisis
The global economy is faltering. The US president's tariff policy prompted the World Trade Organization (WTO) to drastically cut its forecast for global trade in its latest report. It drastically cut its forecast for global trade in goods and now expects global trade volume to decline by 0.2% in 2025. Several analysts have also lowered their outlook for the S&P 500. While experts' price targets at the beginning of the year were still at 6,600 points, they have now been lowered to an average of 5,950 points. Nevertheless, some companies are able to weather the crisis and at least confirm their annual targets.

39th MKK - Munich Capital Market Conference: Reaching new heights with thyssenkrupp, Deutsche Lufthansa, Freenet & Co.
The general conditions were anything but favorable. In addition to the weak performance of the German economy due to cyclical and structural pressures and an unclear political strategy, US President Donald Trump shocked the markets with his tariff hammer. Nevertheless, interest in the 39th edition of the MKK – Munich Capital Market Conference, organized by GBC AG, was greater than ever. Above all, the Augsburg-based company made its mark with the size of the event. Of the 40 companies presenting, nine were MDAX and SDAX members, significantly enhancing the format's prestige.

Volkswagen, European Lithium, Xiaomi – Who benefits from the tariff hammer
With the surprising tariff exemptions for certain product groups like smartphones and computers, the US government provided some relief for the global financial markets over the weekend, which even pushed the German leading index DAX back towards the 21,000-point mark. However, the next shock could be on its way. As early as this week, Trump is expected to address the tariffs on semiconductors.

BYD, dynaCERT, thyssenkrupp - Trump rollercoaster creates opportunities
The stock market currently resembles a rollercoaster, driven by US President Trump's daily shifts in strategy regarding punitive tariffs. After suffering significant losses due to a historic crash earlier in the week, the losses turned into substantial gains within minutes on Wednesday evening. Much of what is happening now is the result of panic and chance, creating attractive entry opportunities in certain companies.

Gold defies the crash – Tocvan Ventures with historic results
The US government's imposition of punitive tariffs on a total of 185 countries caused global stock markets to falter. The German leading index, DAX, alone lost around 17% of its value since the announcement, leaving the psychological mark of 20,000 points far behind. Once again, gold has proven to be a safe haven, regaining the USD 3,000 per ounce mark after a brief pullback. Due to the escalating trade wars, rising inflation, and unrelenting geopolitical tensions, the precious metal is likely to continue its upward cycle. As the underlying commodity gains strength, gold stocks present massive upside potential. Tocvan Ventures, in particular, has recently made a name for itself with impressive gold discoveries.

Porr AG, Globex Mining, Strategy – Exaggerated panic
After the euphoria came the sobering reality. Following the stock market rally since November, sparked by the re-election of Donald Trump as the new US president, we are now witnessing a direct destruction of capital. Since the Republican's inauguration, the US market has officially lost USD 10 trillion. It remains to be seen to what extent the strategy of punitive tariffs, the opening of trade disputes, and the disruption of supply chains will continue to shake the markets. In particular, companies that serve markets outside the US and can produce their raw materials domestically are likely to benefit the most.

BYD, MiMedia Holdings, Xiaomi – Interesting entry opportunities
The first quarter of the 2025 stock market year is history and has been sobering. With the election of Donald Trump last November, the markets started an impressive rally. The DAX, Dow Jones, and Bitcoin marked historic highs. However, these gains were wiped out in the following months by the imposition of punitive tariffs, escalating trade wars, and an uncertain geopolitical situation. Nevertheless, the consolidation has had some positive effects. In the technology sector, valuations that had become somewhat exaggerated have returned to a more normal level.

Agnico Eagle, Desert Gold, and Harmony Gold – 3 Favorites for the gold boom
While the stock markets entered a correction after the recent upward movement, with the Dow Jones losing over 2% at the end of the trading week to 41,475 points, the gold price continues to soar from high to high. The Trump tariffs and the uncertain geopolitical situation continues to give precious metals wings.
