Gas boom Down Under: Omega Oil & Gas and Elixir Energy becoming increasingly expensive – balance sheet treasure at Pure One Corporation
There is a strange discrepancy in the global energy markets that is nowhere more tangible than on Australia's east coast. While politicians and ESG funds have been rehearsing the demise of fossil fuels for years, reality is now hitting the economy with full force. Sentiment in trading rooms from Sydney to Perth has shifted markedly. A gold-rush mood has returned – this time for natural gas. In its "Gas Statement of Opportunities 2025," market operator AEMO warns in an almost alarmist tone of an impending supply gap. Gas explorers such as Omega Oil & Gas and Elixir Energy have already risen sharply. But away from the obvious investments, hydrogen company Pure One presents a classic arbitrage opportunity that is still largely ignored by the broader market. The Company is preparing to spin off its gas division, and a detailed comparison with its peers suggests that investors can currently acquire this asset at virtually no cost – a gift for anyone who knows how to read balance sheets.

Geopolitics as an opportunity: How to profit now with BYD, Pasinex Resources, and Rio Tinto
The rules of the global economy are being rewritten. It is no longer market forces alone that determine the course of events, but geopolitical strategies and the battle for critical resources. In this new geo-economy, the ability to assert oneself in a politically driven cycle determines success or failure. Three companies are exemplary on this front line and reveal the concrete opportunities and risks: electric mobility pioneer BYD, zinc producer Pasinex Resources, and mining giant Rio Tinto.

NATO under pressure – Is silver the new gold? Dream returns with Silver North, fresh momentum for Rheinmetall and TKMS
Geopolitical upheavals are exposing deep rifts of trust between the superpowers. The US approach toward Greenland is reminiscent of long-outdated colonial practices and has alienated the political actors involved. As a result of this blunt conduct on the international stage, trust in political institutions is eroding, and long-standing alliance structures are beginning to fall apart. The wobbling of the transatlantic alliance, NATO, marks a new level of tension and escalation. What this means for the capital markets in the short term remains unclear. However, what is already evident is the almost daily appreciation of gold and silver, along with another surge in valuations of defense stocks. A scenario of rising interest rates is also looming on the horizon. None of this is good news, and investors would be well advised to examine their portfolio structures for weaknesses. Here are a few ideas.

The winners of deglobalization: Why Almonty Industries, Rheinmetall, and the RENK Group are now in the spotlight
Geopolitical conflicts and trade tariffs are bringing the era of globalized supply chains to an end. Instead of pure efficiency, strategic resilience now counts. In this upheaval, three fundamentally different companies are defining the pillars of future value creation. A producer of critical raw materials, a defense giant, and a specialist in drive technology. Their common ground is the response to fragmented markets and the pursuit of technological sovereignty. It is worth following the path of Almonty Industries, Rheinmetall, and the RENK Group.

Winner of the AI boom! RE Royalties shares jump and offer a dividend yield of over 10%!
This stock has finally broken through. We have repeatedly highlighted the pent-up potential at RE Royalties in recent months. The Company stands out with a diversified business model in the renewable energy sector, with a significant portion of its activities based in the United States. Driven by the AI boom, energy production capacities equivalent to more than half of Germany's total electricity consumption will have to be connected to the grid in the US over the next two years alone. RE Royalties is well-positioned to benefit from this development. And if that still is not enough to make the case, the dividend yield is currently above 10%.

AI and the uranium comeback: How American Atomics is becoming the winner of the energy transition and what that has to do with Meta Platforms and Infineon
The era of artificial intelligence (AI) is not only an era of enormous productivity gains, but above all an era of infrastructure and gigantic energy consumption. While the last decade was dominated by software, the future will be all about hardware. Generative AI and the path toward artificial general intelligence (AGI) are transforming data from an intangible asset into a massive consumer of power. Analysts at Goldman Sachs estimate that investments by major US tech companies in energy infrastructure could reach the astronomical sum of over USD 500 billion by 2027. This new reality is forcing a two-pronged energy strategy: on the one hand, the massive expansion of storage and efficiency technologies, and on the other, the inevitable return to the only CO2-free energy source that reliably provides base load – nuclear power. We explain what tech titan Meta Platforms and chip manufacturer Infineon have to do with this development and why American Atomics is considered a highly speculative but strategically brilliant bet on the uranium comeback.

Batteries as a crucial key technology: VW, NEO Battery Materials, and Hensoldt in a technological alliance
The global race for battery technologies and technological sovereignty is becoming significantly more intense. NEO Battery Materials is coming into focus with its market-ready, high-performance silicon anodes and the imminent ramp-up of mass production. The Canadian company is positioning itself as a Western alternative to Chinese-dominated supply chains, combining technological advantages with a compelling cost profile. At the same time, Volkswagen is under pressure to accelerate its e-mobility strategy in an increasingly fragmented and competitive global market. Hensoldt, meanwhile, is benefiting from the rapid expansion of drones, sensors, and security-related future technologies. Together, these three companies illustrate how closely capital markets, geopolitics, and industrial innovation are now intertwined.

The winners of the Energy Transition 2.0: How Nordex, RE Royalties, and E.ON are now generating returns
The next stage of the energy transition is dawning. Success will no longer be determined by subsidies, but by economic pragmatism. While the government is artificially suppressing electricity prices with record billions, the systemic question is becoming more acute. The new focus is on cost efficiency and security of supply. But financing is also raising questions following the rise in interest rates. In this period of upheaval, three players are showing how decarbonization can succeed even without permanent subsidies: wind power pioneer Nordex, financing expert RE Royalties, and infrastructure giant E.ON.

Critical raw material stock poised for revaluation! Antimony Resources benefits from geopolitical tensions!
Is this stock about to take off? The recent escalation surrounding Greenland highlights once again that critical raw materials are at the center of massive geopolitical tensions. The US and China, in particular, are acting decisively to secure strategic resources. Antimony is a commodity that is often overlooked in public debate, yet it is all the more important. Investors can benefit from this through Antimony Resources. The exploration project in North America is shaping up to be a real standout. A strategic partnership with a company or even a government would be the next logical step. Such a move would further accelerate the long-overdue revaluation of Antimony Resources' stock.

E-subsidy 2.0 and now the boom! Taking off with BYD, NEO Battery Materials, and VW
Now it is official! The German federal government is relaunching its e-subsidy program. Low- and middle-income earners can apply for environmental incentives of up to EUR 6,000 for the purchase of an electric or hybrid vehicle. Annual household income must not exceed EUR 80,000 for households without children, and EUR 90,000 for those with children. Fully electric vehicles will receive a base subsidy of EUR 3,000. What initially sounds like positive news was met with little enthusiasm on the stock market. On the contrary, automotive stocks ended up with a 2 to 3% correction. The reason: the math is a zero-sum game. The German automotive market continues to be dominated by combustion engine technology. Those who take advantage of the EV incentive are simply subsidizing their switch to electric mobility, while at the same time, a new combustion-engine purchase disappears from sales pipelines. Worse still, German manufacturers still do not appear to be competitive with Chinese suppliers. Ultimately, this suggests that foreign suppliers could win the race. Investors should therefore take a close look at where the real private-sector leverage may lie.
