Analysts at Noble Capital Markets believe that Power Metallic Mines shares could rise by almost 200%. This is based on the Nisk project, which has developed from a nickel project into a world-class multi-metal project. Recent nearby drilling results suggest even greater potential. The planned IPO in the US could be an additional driver. Nordex shares are recommended as a "Buy" by mwb research. Although analysts are optimistic and see the wind turbine manufacturer on track operationally, the price target is disappointing. At RENK, the recent analyst call by management appears to have been convincing. Expectations for Q4 and the full year 2025 are likely to be met, unlike recently at Rheinmetall.

    Power Metallic Mines: Nearly 200% upside potential

    Noble Capital Markets has assigned a price target implying nearly 200% upside. Ahead of the planned IPO on Wall Street, analysts at the US broker see plenty of potential for the Canadian resource explorer. They put the fair value of the stock at CAD 3.65. The stock is currently trading at CAD 1.30.

    Unsurprisingly, Noble's experts now also classify the former Nisk nickel project as a high-grade system containing copper, platinum, nickel, gold, and silver. According to their assessment, both the scale and continuity of the deposit continue to improve. In addition to precious metals, the metals present are considered essential for electrification and industrial manufacturing, with some even categorized as critical.

    The key driver for the stock is the Lion Zone within the Nisk project. Among other things, this zone delivers exceptional grades of copper, palladium, and platinum. Follow-up drilling within the neighboring Tiger Zone would even suggest that the mineralization there is similar in strength to that at Lion. Due to the capital increase at the beginning of 2025, the company is fully financed for exploration in 2026. The plan is to drill approximately 65,000 meters in the current year.

    It is also important to note that the Nisk project is located in a favorable mining jurisdiction. Mining activities in Canada and Québec benefit from substantial tax incentives that can offset a significant portion of exploration costs. In addition, there is access to environmentally friendly hydroelectric power.

    Nordex: Analyst commentary and price target do not match

    Next week, Nordex is set to report on its performance in the fourth quarter and for the full year 2025. mwb research advises buying the wind turbine manufacturer's shares before then. Analysts see the fair value of Nordex shares at EUR 36. The stock is currently trading at around EUR 33.50. Why the stock is a "Buy" is something only the analysts seem to understand.

    mwb research sees several fundamental drivers. They expect Nordex to report a 9.2% increase in order intake for the fourth quarter and a 22.5% increase for the full year. Average sales prices should remain stable at around EUR 0.91 million per MW. For 2025 as a whole, analysts expect revenue of EUR 7.4 billion, which would be at the lower end of the company's forecast. With an EBITDA margin of 8%, Nordex should be able to meet consensus expectations.

    Analysts attribute the interim decline in the share price of around 10% to profit-taking and discussions about the valuation. After all, Nordex shares have gained around 50% in the past six months, bringing the company's market capitalization to almost EUR 8 billion.

    The operating outlook has improved in recent months. Following the 1 GW agreement in the US at the end of 2025, a 700 MW framework agreement was recently signed with VERBUND Green Power and further orders were added to the order book. It is now important that the Q4 figures confirm the positive development in margins and cash flow. Further upside for the stock could come from a positive outlook for 2026 or new medium-term targets. It all sounds very positive, but then the price target should also be somewhat higher.

    RENK: Management convinces analysts

    At RENK, "Buy" recommendations and price targets are more in line with each other. The share price of the specialist for tank transmissions is currently trading just below EUR 60. JPMorgan believes the stock is worth EUR 75 and rates it as "Overweight." The last call with management before the publication of the 2025 annual financial statements was positive. As a result, analysts raised their earnings estimates for the coming years slightly. From 2028 onwards, growth in the US could surprise on the upside. If the analysts are right, this would be very welcome, as order intake in Europe has not yet met the high expectations.

    Jefferies also considers RENK shares to be fairly valued at EUR 75. The company is expected to at least meet expectations with its Q4 and full-year results. This is seen as particularly reassuring following the more cautious remarks recently made by Rheinmetall’s management.

    Deutsche Bank is hardly less optimistic about RENK shares. Here, too, management came across positively during the conference call. The tank transmission manufacturer is scheduled to report on fourth-quarter developments and full-year 2025 results on March 5.


    Power Metallic Mines is facing an exciting few months. In light of recent analyst comments, the stock appears anything but expensive. Anything other than continued strong drilling results would be a surprise. The US IPO may finally break the deadlock for the stock. The price target and rating by mwb research do not really fit together for Nordex. Operationally, the company appears to continue to have tailwinds, but the valuation is certainly not low. Business is also booming at RENK. The stock should benefit from this again.

    At the Heart of Industrial Transformation: HPQ Silicon, Plug Power, and Evonik

    • Silicon
    • Batteries
    • Drones
    • Fuelcells
    • chemicals
    • renewableenergy
    • Technology

    Industry increasingly requires advanced materials for the energy and mobility transitions. Both megatrends depend on highly specialized inputs—whether for more powerful batteries, more efficient energy storage, or scalable hydrogen infrastructure. Established chemical companies like Evonik Industries contribute to this development through the production of materials such as pyrogenic silica, which supports thermal stability and performance in modern battery systems. At the same time, hydrogen pioneers like Plug Power are building comprehensive ecosystem solutions. The younger company HPQ Silicon fits into this picture with innovative processes for the low-emission production of nanomaterials and silicon anodes. Through its collaboration with Novacium, HPQ recently reported a milestone: prototype GEN4 battery cells with capacities exceeding 7,000 mAh, significantly outperforming conventional industrial cells. At the same time, the on-demand hydrogen production technology developed by HPQ offers a decentralized alternative to electrolysis infrastructure, such as that offered by Plug Power. Investors should take note: HPQ Silicon is positioning itself at the intersection of specialty chemicals and emerging hydrogen-related applications.

    On modern battlefields, drones are essential for reconnaissance, precision strikes, and increasingly for determining the outcome of conflicts. But drones are not only reshaping military operations. Strong growth is also emerging across many civilian sectors, from logistics and infrastructure to security services. Investors are asking themselves a key question: Who will benefit from this boom in the long term? One company increasingly moving into focus is Volatus Aerospace. With a broad service offering ranging from drone operations to data-driven services (SaaS), the company is strategically positioning itself across multiple use cases. Rising demand from NATO-related customers is providing additional momentum. Canada's Defence Industrial Strategy could further support long-term growth prospects. While the stock still appears moderately valued compared to peers, this could change as visibility increases and the planned Nasdaq listing potentially broadens investor access.

    The US state of Nevada is one of the world's largest gold producers. It is home to several world-class gold mines, with Newmont and Barrick Mining dominating the scene through the Nevada Gold Mines complex. Lahontan Gold is on track to build the next mine in the famous Walker-Lane trend. The Canadians are aiming for an annual production of up to 80,000 ounces of gold. Given the company's low valuation, this presents an entry opportunity for investors with a medium- to long-term focus.
