The world is entering a new geopolitical era: armament and defense production have top priority. Countries are effectively investing unlimited sums into their defense industries, which means gigantic opportunities for investors! Those who are positioned correctly now can benefit from price increases that are rarely seen, even in the most dynamic tech sectors. One example? The stock of Steyr Motors AG: Just a month ago, it was still available for EUR 14.80. This morning, it exploded on Tradegate to up to EUR 426.00 – an incredible price increase of 2,778%!

    The sleeping giant: Almonty Industries set for a price explosion?

    In addition to traditional defense stocks such as Rheinmetall, whose shares doubled in just three months and recently traded at around EUR 1,400, raw material suppliers are now moving into the spotlight. This is where Almonty Industries comes in – a company considered one of the most important producers of the strategic metal tungsten. On Xetra alone, the stock has already seen a daily gain of 16.6% to EUR 1.206. But the day is still young, and it could just be the beginning.

    Why? Because tungsten is indispensable for armor and ammunition! Currently, around 90% of the global supply comes from China, Iran, North Korea, and Russia. This creates a dangerous dependency for Western defense nations. This is precisely where Almonty Industries comes in: In the coming months, the Company will commission the largest tungsten mine outside of these four countries in South Korea – a potential game changer for Western defense strategy and a golden opportunity for investors.

    Takeover speculation: Almonty as a coveted target?

    CEO Lewis Black has already hinted that Almonty may not remain independent for much longer. This is not surprising, given that the Company's expected market share of 30% outside the dominant countries makes it a strategic option for Western players. Sphene Capital analyst Peter Thilo Hasler sees Almonty as a strong investment, and on February 3, 2025, he raised his target price from CAD 3.21 to CAD 5.20. Given yesterday's closing price of CAD 1.59, this represents a potential price increase of 225%!

    Momentum is pickup up: Act before the mass market strikes!

    The explosive price development of Steyr Motors shows how quickly trends can develop. As soon as Almonty Industries comes to the attention of the general public, the momentum could accelerate dramatically. The rising tungsten price due to Chinese export restrictions further enhances this effect.


    Conclusion: Those who position themselves correctly now can benefit from the geopolitical turning point!

    Investors who position themselves strategically can benefit massively from current developments. The defense industry and its raw material suppliers are the new winners of this era. Almonty Industries is a company that is positioning itself as a future key player – and could ignite the next big return boost for investors. Those who want to be part of it must act now!

    Achieve sustainable green returns of over 50%! How do Deutsche Bank, RE Royalties, and Nordex do it?

    • Sustainability

    With the Green Deal, the European Union has committed itself to the most ambitious sustainability program in its history. Through multi-billion-euro funding instruments, from the EU taxonomy to the InvestEU Fund and the Innovation Fund, Brussels is directing capital specifically toward green technologies, renewable energy, and sustainable infrastructure. For investors, the triggers are clear: stricter climate regulations, rising CO₂ prices, and the increasing commitment of institutional investors to comply with ESG standards are creating structural demand for green projects. Those who invest early in low-emission business models benefit twice over - from political support and growing social acceptance. So what makes companies like Deutsche Bank, Nordex, and RE Royalties the winners?

    Bombshell at Plug Power! Things are getting "critical" at Standard Lithium and Graphano Energy! Donald Trump is shaking up commodity stocks!

    • Commodities
    • Energy

    Investors are currently rushing to buy stocks in the rare earths, tungsten, and lithium sectors. The driving force behind this is the US government, which is investing in companies involved in critical raw materials to secure independence from China. Could Graphano Energy be next in line for government participation? In any case, no battery can function without the critical mineral, graphite. Graphano Energy is attractively valued and holds projects in Canada. Standard Lithium is benefiting from the hype surrounding critical metals. After rising more than 60% in four weeks, has a correction now arrived? Plug Power is in the midst of one. This week, the stock fell by over 20%. A capital measure and the surprising departure of the CEO are causing uncertainty.

    The AI tech high-flyers! Up to 3,500% dream returns with D-Wave Quantum, Power Metallic, Nvidia and AMD

    Hard to believe, but unfortunately true! Without a single setback, share prices in the AI, high-tech, and strategic metals sectors have been rising unabated for months now. This has led to dream returns, some of which are in the triple digits. The curtain call for this party seems a long way off, while underinvested investors are sitting on billions in idle cash. There is no conclusive advice for such a situation. Fundamental analysts have been sounding the alarm for months, noting that the well-known Shiller P/E ratio, at over 42, has long since broken through the band of irrational exaggeration. But who cares? Here is a selection of stocks that face daily demand, forcing constant appreciation. Of course, as with any party, it only ends when the last guest turns off the lights.
