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.

    The Transaction Era: Why Desert Gold Ventures Emerges as the Clear Winner in West Africa – B2Gold Watches, Robex Resources as a Blueprint

    The spotlight at Mining Indaba 2026 in Cape Town in early February illuminated a new reality that goes far beyond production quotas and drilling results. A term emerged from the panel discussions that defines future commodity policy: "transactional." The era of purely ideological alliances is giving way to a pragmatic age in which security of supply and access to resources are the currency of geopolitics. In this new global structure, in which the West, China, and the Global South are vying for influence, Africa is no longer positioning itself as a supplicant but as a strategic partner on an equal footing. Capital follows this logic. However, it does not flow indiscriminately, but rather targets the most geologically productive regions. In the gold sector, this means that all eyes are on the Senegal-Mali Shear Zone (SMSZ). In this world-class district, a small explorer controls the key to the longevity of the giants there: Desert Gold Ventures. While B2Gold and Robex Resources manage their billion-dollar assets, Desert Gold sits on strategic reserves that are likely to become very expensive in a transactional world.

    Unpredictable conflict dynamics turn tungsten into a strategic metal – Almonty moves into focus

    The capital markets currently appear paradoxical: record highs for indices, unusually high volatility, and above all, a world order that is shifting faster than any valuation metric. Wars are back and here to stay, trade routes are becoming political and fragile, and sanctions are replacing diplomacy. In this environment, raw materials are once again becoming strategic weapons. While algorithms are still extrapolating growth rates, governments are already thinking about supply scenarios after the crash. In this tense environment, the logic of investing is changing. It is no longer just about supply and demand, but about access, control, and reliability. Who will deliver when the going gets tough? Who will decide who gets what and how much, and who might even be excluded? This is precisely where the major capital movements of the coming years will arise, often away from the familiar mega-caps. A metal that hardly anyone has paid attention to for years is suddenly becoming the focus of technological and military interest. And a company that has long flown under the radar is quietly becoming a strategic factor. Almonty Industries is an example of how geopolitics and capital markets are currently intertwining in new ways and creating dream returns for visionary investors.
