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!

    Decarbonization is increasingly becoming the dominant megatrend in global industry and is opening up entirely new value chains linking energy, raw materials, and technology. While companies like ITM Power and Nel provide the technological foundation for green hydrogen, "raw material developers" such as Strategic Resources are simultaneously coming into focus. The Canadians aim to supply the industry with green steel and plan to build a comprehensive value chain. In addition, an exciting partnership has been formed to develop vanadium-based battery materials. Who will win the race?

    While the US, Russia, and China are ramping up their military capabilities and securing raw materials, Europe continues to lag behind. Most recently, Germany and France were unable to agree on the development of a joint sixth-generation fighter jet. The project ended up as one of Europe's biggest defence fiascos. Several German defence and technology conglomerates now want to develop their own concept. In addition to Airbus, the publicly traded companies Hensoldt and MTU are also involved. Will this bring new momentum to the defence sector? New momentum would also be welcome for the shares of Antimony Resources. Just a few months ago, the share was trading at around EUR 1. Currently, it stands at EUR 0.39. Yet the antimony explorer's latest drilling results are once again positive. Analysts continue to see significant multi-bagger potential.
