The impact of AI is currently causing sharp price swings. Who stands to gain, and who is under threat? While software companies are being punished, the share prices of energy companies are skyrocketing. Among the big winners in the US are energy suppliers that rely on nuclear power. These include, for example, Constellation Energy, Vistra, and Talen Energy. But these companies also need to be supplied with uranium. It is therefore not surprising that Bank of America is bullish on the price of uranium. It expects an increase of over 50% to USD 135 per pound in the current year alone. With Standard Uranium, investors could benefit from this megatrend.

    News flow and risk reduction in one stock

    While industry giants such as Cameco and NextGen have already performed well, it is worth taking a look at the explorers. Standard Uranium is one of the exciting newcomers. What is exciting about the company is that it does not focus on a single project, but on a large number of them. And these are typically developed with financially strong partners, thereby reducing capital requirements and risk for shareholders. In addition, the larger portfolio enables a regular news flow.

    Standard Uranium's current portfolio comprises 13 high-quality uranium exploration projects in uranium-rich districts of the Athabasca Basin. Its portfolio spans 57 claims over more than 95,000 hectares. The flagship project is Davidson River, while the latest addition, the Harrison project, lies in the southwest of the Athabasca Basin - near Fission Uranium's Triple R deposit and NexGen Energy's Arrow project. F3 Uranium has recently reported high-grade discoveries in the same area.

    Full throttle in 2026

    Standard Uranium is targeting a breakthrough year in 2026. High-resolution geophysics and targeted diamond drilling programs are set to advance multiple projects simultaneously. Davidson River remains the primary value driver, with Standard Uranium advancing it independently. In contrast, partner-funded programs at Corvo and Rocas cover drilling costs, reducing financial exposure. Management expects these parallel programs to provide a steady news flow and even ongoing revenue through operator fees, as Standard frequently handles the operational execution of its projects.

    For CEO Jon Bey, 2026 is a "discovery year." New, prioritized target zones from a first-time multiphysics survey in the southwest of the basin should also contribute to this. The portfolio is to be systematically developed towards discovery.

    Corvo uranium project with high-grade potential

    There has recently been positive news about the Corvo uranium project in the eastern Athabasca Basin. It is considered to be potentially high-grade. Now, for the first time, tests will be carried out to determine whether the signature continues at depth. The first diamond drilling is being prepared for this purpose, with the focus on the Manhattan Showing section. There, samples of conspicuous uranium mineralization on surface yielded up to 8.10% U₃O₈. Now, around 3,000 meters of diamond drilling in 8 to 10 holes will provide further details.

    The project is a prime example of Standard Uranium's business model. Partner Aventis Energy can secure a 75% stake in the project if CAD 6 million is invested in exploration over three years. For Standard Uranium, this means that drilling and data collection are funded by partner capital, while the company participates in the upside through its project stake.

    Conclusion: Stock with upside potential

    Standard Uranium is valued at less than CAD 20 million on the stock market. Given the large number of projects and the risk-reduced partnership model, there appears to be significant upside potential.
    In Germany, the stock is already traded on Tradegate. With further news flow, awareness of the company is likely to increase, and with it, trading volume in the stock.

    BUY RECOMMENDATIONS for RENK and Desert Gold! SHOCK for Evotec!

    While gold prices are weakening, Desert Gold shares are in a clear uptrend. And if analysts are to be believed, a tenfold increase is possible. Desert Gold is set to become a gold producer in just a few months and generate strong cash flows. And it does not matter whether gold is trading at USD 4,000 or USD 6,000 per ounce. RENK stock has been upgraded to "Buy." Not because the future outlook has improved, but because the price has plummeted. This means the valuation now offers upside potential again. The growth prospects are quite positive. Meanwhile, analysts have recently noted a lack of growth prospects at Evotec. For many, "Project Horizon" focuses too heavily on cost reduction. But growth is precisely what is expected from a biotech company. And now, the restructuring costs are also to be financed through a convertible bond.

    Lahontan Gold: Profit-Taking Creates A New Opportunity!

    The stable gold price and the current easing of tensions in the Gulf conflict are supporting many resource stocks. However, for investors who do not want to rely too heavily on the gold price, it is important to focus on companies that are in a growth phase. This is exactly the case with Lahontan Gold. The Canadian company is developing the Santa Fe project, a historic gold mine in Nevada's famous Walker Lane Trend. The goal is to build up production to up to 80,000 ounces of gold per year. Following the stock's initial sharp rise, an interesting technical situation has now emerged. Traders appear to have exited the stock, leaving room for serious investors looking to get in for the medium- to long-term.

    Imagine a metal that is used in every modern weapon, powers every AI chip, and whose price has increased sixfold within a year. This strategic raw material is called tungsten. China controls more than 80% of global supply. This is precisely where a gap in the market is opening up, and Almonty Industries is systematically filling it. The company's story is not a short-term bet on geopolitical conflicts. Almonty Industries will continue to perform even after the world's wars end. CEO Lewis Black has built the company patiently and with long-term vision. Now the results of that work are beginning to materialize.
