Investors can currently expect a 14% dividend yield when buying RE Royalties shares. In addition, the price seems far too low. After all, the Company is increasingly financing renewable energy projects in the US, and the market is booming due to the energy hunger of AI data centers. TeamViewer's stock has not boomed for quite some time. Even after the price halved, the stock has not found a bottom. Can AI fantasy cause investors to rethink their position? TKMS has recently held up well in the sell-off of defense stocks. Now there are takeover rumors. Accordingly, the stock market newcomer is about to take over its neighboring shipyard.

    RE Royalties: 14% dividend yield

    Dividend hunters take note. RE Royalties currently offers a dividend yield of 14%. The Canadians have successfully transferred the license financing model known from the raw materials industry to the renewable energy sector. RE Royalties combines loans with license participations. Project developers receive capital without having to give up shares. Instead, RE Royalties participates in future revenues. The Company now finances over 100 projects in the solar, wind, and hydroelectric power sectors. RE Royalties is a first mover in renewable energy and has grown by an average of 38% per year from 2020 to 2024.

    It is currently growing strongly, particularly in the US, and is likely to benefit from the energy hunger of AI data centers. It is becoming increasingly clear that the AI race between the US and China will not be decided by the fastest semiconductors, but by extensive and cost-effective energy infrastructure.

    Revenue from the projects can be planned for the long term, for example, due to 20- to 40-year power purchase agreements, thus generating stable income. This allows RE Royalties to grow while paying a high dividend to shareholders. The current dividend is expected to be CAD 0.04. RE Royalties shares are trading at CAD 0.28, putting the dividend yield at a strong 14%.

    TKMS: Takeover rumors

    Is TKMS strengthening its position shortly after going public with a takeover? The Kieler Nachrichten newspaper recently reported that German Naval Yard Kiel (GNYK) is "about to be taken over" by its direct neighbor Thyssenkrupp Marine Systems (TKMS). According to the article, "only the details are still being worked out." There has been no confirmation from the companies involved so far – these are purely rumors.

    Strategically, such a deal would make sense and reflect the ongoing consolidation trend in the industry. Following the spin-off and with full order books, TKMS has repeatedly addressed capacity bottlenecks and already took over the Wismar site from MV Werften in 2022. At the same time, the German surface shipbuilding landscape is in flux – most recently due to Rheinmetall's entry into the Lürssen/NVL Group and the discussions surrounding the stalled F126 frigate program. Against this backdrop, integrating GNYK's dock capacities in Kiel – located right next door to TKMS – could shorten cycle times and reduce risks in shipbuilding.

    The sticking point would remain the ownership side and the regulatory environment. GNYK is part of the European shipbuilding group CMN Naval (formerly Privinvest/CMN). A sale would require approvals from the owner, antitrust authorities, and security policy reviews. Not only the federal government, but also other governments are increasingly involved in overseeing large contracts and mergers in this sector.

    TeamViewer: Can AI fantasy stop the downward trend?

    TeamViewer's stock cannot seem to find a bottom. After peaking at EUR 13.55 in May, the stock took a sharp dive. On Wednesday, the stock slipped below the EUR 6 mark.

    Even AI hype cannot end the downward trend. TeamViewer has reported growing interest in its AI solutions. Three months after the global launch, usage figures are rising significantly. The Session Insights add-on has automatically summarized more than 270,000 remote support sessions, with volumes from August to October quadrupling compared to the previous quarter. Around 10,000 customers have activated the AI functions. Many IT teams report noticeable efficiency gains. Tickets can be resolved up to 25% faster, and documentation takes about ten minutes less per case on average.

    TeamViewer aims to use this momentum for the next step. Based on numerous support sessions, telemetry data from millions of end devices, and over 645,000 paying customers, the Company is working on AI agents for even more automated IT support. Functions from the acquired specialist 1E are intended to help expand these capabilities. New solutions will be presented at Microsoft Ignite in San Francisco from November 18 to 25.


    So far, there have been no official announcements from CMN Naval, GNYK, or TKMS regarding a possible deal. The story is plausible, but still unconfirmed – stock price reactions to headlines should be viewed with caution. Caution is also still warranted with TeamViewer. In contrast, RE Royalties appears to be a real bargain. It is incomprehensible why a company with such a long track record is trading so cheaply and with such a dividend yield.

    These are turbulent times for the stock markets. Interest rates are rising, bank stocks are weakening, and the number of mega-IPOs, including SpaceX and Anthropic, keeps growing. Parallels with previous stock-market crashes are becoming increasingly apparent. Yet many investors are still riding a wave of euphoria. The current bull market is already the longest in US stock-market history, driven largely by artificial intelligence. But the downside is becoming increasingly evident: valuations are high, and concentration in the major stock indices is enormous. Consider just one example: ten stocks, the so-called Magnificent Seven, along with Broadcom, AMD, and Micron, now account for 42% of the S&P 500. At these levels, there is little room for anything to go wrong. Even in this market environment, however, opportunities and risks coexist. Today, we take a closer look at Samsung, Volatus Aerospace and Equinox Gold.

    Copper in the Spotlight: BHP, Southern Copper and Power Metallic Mines

    Copper prices remain elevated despite ongoing market volatility. Recent developments in the physical market have provided plenty of reasons for concern. Production in Chile, by far the world's largest copper-producing country, remains subdued and is declining at some operations. Strikes are looming at several mines. Most recently, Antofagasta reported the start of a work stoppage at its Centinela mine in the Andean nation. Adding to these concerns, Deutsche Bank's commodities team highlighted the geopolitical aspects in a recent study. Copper is essential to virtually every sector of the economy, from construction and power grids to manufacturing and AI data centres. According to the study, the US and China now control, directly or indirectly, 70% of global copper production. This presents a challenge for Europe and many other regions, where securing reliable supplies of critical raw materials remains a key strategic priority. Against this backdrop, we take a closer look at the copper market and the geopolitical tensions shaping it through three stocks: Power Metallic Mines, BHP and Southern Copper.

    Gold Stocks with Potential: K92 Mining, B2Gold and Kobo Resources

    A sombre mood once again prevails in the gold market. Gold has fallen sharply from its peak of more than USD 4,600 per ounce and seems poised to test the USD 4,000 mark again. Technical analysts, however, see a "death zone" only below that level. Nevertheless, others point to fundamental factors. Analysts are highlighting ongoing purchases by asset managers through gold ETFs, acquisitions by central banks, and the world's high debt problem. As a result, gold is currently showing remarkable resilience, as emphasized in recent studies by major banks such as JPMorgan and Morgan Stanley. Accordingly, investors can pick up promising stocks during such weaker market phases. That is why we are taking a look today at the stocks of K92 Mining, B2Gold and Kobo Resources.
