Even as a high school student in northern Germany, he developed a strong interest in the “Neuer Markt” and the dynamics of the equity markets. Small- and mid-cap companies were at the center of his focus from the very beginning. After completing his training as a certified bank clerk, he deepened his economic expertise through formal studies in economics as well as through various positions within Frankfurt’s financial sector. Today, he has been actively involved in the capital markets for more than 25 years, both professionally and as a private investor.
As an author, he focuses primarily on high-potential equities in the resource, biotech, and technology sectors. He is particularly interested in companies that remain under the radar of many investors and whose true potential has yet to be recognized by the broader market. He does not consider broad diversification a universal remedy. Instead, he favors a concentrated portfolio of carefully selected and thoroughly understood positions as the foundation for achieving above-average long-term returns. For him, two factors are decisive: rigorous, in-depth company analysis and a realistic assessment of the broader market environment — including current dynamics as well as structural developments across global capital markets.

Opportunities in the Oil Market: BP, Zefiro Methane, and Chevron In Focus
The price of oil is rising again after ceasefire negotiations between the US and Iran appear to have failed. However, fighting is currently more sporadic, and its intensity differs from what it was a few weeks ago. Nevertheless, oil prices remain high, and analysts expect they will not fall back to pre-war levels for the time being due to the supply shortfall. Barclays estimates that the Strait of Hormuz bottleneck is creating a supply deficit of up to 6.6 million barrels per day—about 7% of the global market. If the blockade persists, a peak of USD 110 is considered possible. The bank set a price target of USD 100 for the fourth quarter of 2026. JPMorgan is already seeing a drop in demand in Asia, partially offsetting the shortfall. Nevertheless, the price target here remains high at USD 96 per barrel. Should shipping traffic in the Persian Gulf normalize, the investment bank expects prices of USD 75 for black gold in the coming year. Oil companies stand to benefit from this development. We are therefore focusing on the shares of BP and Chevron. It is also worth looking at Zefiro Methane, which operates as a "cleanup specialist" in the industry.

Gold Market: Pullback Creates Opportunities in B2Gold, Kobo Resources, and Agnico Eagle Mines
Gold has remained remarkably resilient amid ongoing geopolitical tensions, inflation concerns, and the prospect of higher interest rates. The precious metal is currently trading sideways within a broad range of USD 4,400 to USD 4,800 per ounce and has recently defended the USD 4,500 level. History suggests that gold can perform well even during periods of rising interest rates. The 1970s provide a notable example. As the Western world grappled with stagflation—a combination of economic stagnation and rising prices—central banks, led by the US Federal Reserve, aggressively tightened monetary policy. Despite higher interest rates, gold emerged as one of the decade's strongest-performing assets, climbing from USD 35 per ounce to more than USD 800 by 1980. Today, the charts for many gold companies also look promising. They would be the biggest beneficiaries of another outperformance by the precious metal. In any case, the banks remain optimistic. Whether it is Goldman Sachs, Deutsche Bank, or UBS, analysts see gold back above the USD 5,000 per ounce mark by year-end. We therefore take a closer look at three companies that appear interesting not only from a charting perspective, but also fundamentally: B2Gold, Kobo Resources, and Agnico Eagle Mines.

Almonty Industries: The Cash Flows Are Coming
As recently as 2024, Almonty Industries shares were trading for less than USD 1 apiece. The stock is now trading around USD 19, having briefly surpassed USD 20. Following this spectacular growth phase, the company is now poised for its next step. On one hand, the Sangdong mine in South Korea officially opened in mid-March and will now supply the Western world with the critical raw material tungsten. On the other hand, SpaceX's IPO is set to take place in a few days with a valuation of USD 1.75 trillion—a figure that seems out of this world. Then, many investors might realize that tungsten, whose global market is clearly dominated by China, is also indispensable for space travel. And it is precisely this product that is actually only available in large quantities from Almonty Industries.

Dividends From Renewable Energy: Brookfield Renewable Partners, RE Royalties and Clearway Energy Offer Investors High Payouts!
Some people forget that we live in a capitalist system. The term itself is derived from capital, and in today's corporate and capital markets, nothing functions without it. In certain industries, however, capital is scarce, investor risk appetite is limited, or business models are not always a natural fit. In many of these sectors—such as oil, mining, pharmaceuticals, or even the music industry—the royalty model has therefore become well established. Financiers provide capital and, in return, receive stable, long-term cash flows from their partners. This business model has now also gained traction in renewable energy, including hydropower, solar, wind, and battery storage. It offers investors relatively stable and comparatively high dividend yields. Against this backdrop, we take a closer look at the stocks of Brookfield Renewable Partners, RE Royalties, and Clearway Energy.

Lithium, Uranium, and Copper: How Albemarle, American Atomics, and Antofagasta Are Benefiting from the Energy Revolution!
The world is changing at a rapid pace. The superpowers are locked in competition, and Europe is navigating its path between the US and China. Behind this lie enormous economic shifts that are placing significant demands on businesses and society. The war in the Persian Gulf has brought the extremely diverse yet fragile energy sector back into the spotlight. People are increasingly opting for electric vehicles, batteries are becoming more important, and baseload power has become critical for many nations. Not least, massive investments are needed—especially in Europe and North America—in the often very old and now sometimes dilapidated power grid. These radical changes are driving demand for uranium, lithium, and copper. We are therefore taking a look at the stocks of Albemarle, American Atomics, and Antofagasta!

The AI Boom Requires More Power: Cameco, Standard Uranium, and 2G Energy Stand to Benefit!
Major tech companies like Amazon, Microsoft, Alphabet, Meta, and Oracle remain committed to investing in AI data centers. Despite initial negative news (debt, cash flow slump), new analyses show that they are actually increasing their investments. These so-called AI hyperscalers had planned investments in AI infrastructure of around USD 600 to USD 620 billion for 2026. Now, estimates from analysts and market researchers have been significantly revised upward. Accordingly, research firms such as TrendForce and Pimco now anticipate combined capital expenditures of over USD 750 to USD 830 billion for this year. In 2027, this figure is expected to exceed USD 870 billion. According to market observers, around three-quarters of this spending currently goes directly toward AI infrastructure—namely, high-performance GPU clusters, proprietary AI chips, and advanced data centers. However, data centers in particular have an enormous appetite for energy. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), global electricity consumption by data centers recently stood at around 415 terawatt-hours (TWh), corresponding to about 1.5% of global electricity demand. By 2030, this figure is expected to more than double. In its more optimistic scenarios, Goldman Sachs even anticipates growth of up to 165%. Yet energy demand remains the industry's bottleneck. In the US in particular, the partly dilapidated grid is overwhelmed by the additional demand. For this reason, many data centers equipped with expensive chips stood idle for months, waiting for grid connection. With demand booming, nuclear energy is making a comeback among suppliers. Canada's market leader Cameco and Standard Uranium stand to benefit directly from this. From Germany, 2G Energy appears to be in the mix. The North Rhine-Westphalia based company has just announced its first order from the United States for its CHP plants.

Lahontan Gold: Stock in the Sweet Spot
Gold prices are currently still under pressure. Concerns about higher interest rates in the United States are certainly the main drag on the market. However, Fed watchers are unanimous in expecting that there will be no rate hike in the United States before the midterm elections in November. Fed Funds futures are currently pricing in only one rate hike by year-end. But President Trump likely did not appoint the son-in-law of a longtime business partner as Fed Chair without reason. He wants lower interest rates, and Kevin Warsh could deliver. The market may therefore be fundamentally wrong on this issue. This would be the optimal scenario for gold stocks such as Lahontan Gold. The Canadian company is currently developing the historic Santa Fe Mine in Nevada. Founder and CEO Kimberly Ann aims to pour the first gold bar by the end of 2027.

Commodities War on Hold: How Shares of MP Materials, Antimony Resources, and Aya Gold & Silver Are Benefiting
Created and published on behalf of Antimony Resources Corp.
The conflict in the Persian Gulf appears to have entered its final phase. Apparently, the US and Iran are on the verge of finalizing a path to peace. At least, that is what the US media are reporting. Apart from copper, which is currently at an all-time high, the hostilities have weighed on almost all metal prices and, consequently, on stocks as well. However, the geopolitical competition for rare earths, antimony, and silver is likely to enter the next round in the coming months. Western companies are moving forward with their projects to benefit from the US plans to establish a supply chain outside China's sphere of influence. We are therefore looking at the winners of tomorrow, who could also succeed in the short term: MP Materials, Antimony Resources, and Aya Gold & Silver!

The IPO Boom is Hitting the Gold Market: Sunshine Silver, DRC Gold, and Kinross Gold in Focus
On June 12, Elon Musk plans to list SpaceX on the Nasdaq. With a valuation of USD 1.75 trillion, it is shaping up to be the largest initial public offering in history. But the pipeline of new listings is also gaining momentum in the commodities sector. Sunshine Silver Mining & Refining, for example, is preparing an IPO on the NYSE and aims to raise up to USD 330 million. And it is far from the only resource company seeking to go public this year. DRC Gold, meanwhile, appears particularly interesting from a takeover perspective. The Canadian company plans to bring two gold mines into production over the medium term. At the same time, Chile is increasingly becoming an Eldorado for gold miners, alongside its role as the world's leading copper producer. Kinross Gold is now planning a multi-billion-dollar investment there, but could also pursue further growth through acquisitions.

Diversify Across Commodity Stocks: Wheaton Precious Metals, Globex Mining, Rio Tinto
Not every investor wants to take on the risk associated with a single commodity stock. Nevertheless, there are effective ways to achieve broad diversification. The principle of royalties and streaming agreements has become firmly established in the commodities industry. Under these models, investors provide upfront financing and, in return, receive a defined share of the mined metals once production begins. In both cases, the operational and cost risks remain largely with the mine operator. With Wheaton Precious Metals, a multi-billion-dollar heavyweight has established itself as a leading player in the sector. Globex Mining is significantly smaller, but offers greater upside potential on the exploration side through its own project portfolio. Meanwhile, Rio Tinto represents an attractive alternative for investors seeking broad exposure to the metals sector.
