A trend is present when the price of security tends to move in a specific direction, even under fluctuation. To play this trend correctly and to make more significant price gains, one should recognize the signals of a trend reversal. With Bitcoin & Co., this could soon be the case. The stabilization phase is still underway, but buying pressure has increased in the last few days. Companies that have a unique position in the crypto market could benefit from this.

    Right on target

    The Mainz-based vaccine company BioNTech can report further positive news. Approximately 1.5 million doses of the Pfizer BioNTech vaccine, one of the most promising candidates in the competition for the first regulatory approval in Europe and the USA, have been ordered by the New Zealand government. According to the government in Wellington, the quantity is sufficient to protect around 750,000 people with double vaccination. Negotiations are also ongoing with other pharmaceutical companies to serve all 5 million residents.

    Bitcoin - Is the second wave coming?

    The world's leading cryptocurrency, which peaked at just under USD 20,000 at the end of 2017, then entered a more substantial correction phase. It fell below the USD 4,000 mark twice, in December 2018, and the Corona low in March 2020, but then recovered with high volatility.

    Since March, digital gold has been steadily moving northwards, with a support zone of over USD 10,000 recently established. If the prices fall below the high reached in August at almost USD 12,500, there will be a reversal of the bull trend, and the chances of attaining the all-time high would be quite realistic. However, if the support level falls below USD 10,000, the scenario mentioned would be invalid.

    Profiteers of the run

    In addition to other crypto-currencies such as Etherum, Ripple or various Altcoins, companies that deal with the topic of crypto-currencies would also benefit disproportionately here. The Canadian Company BIGG Digital Assets Inc. believes that the future of crypto-currencies depends on a secure and regulated environment.

    In this context, the Blockchain Intelligence Group division provides search and analysis tools. The developed product "QLUE" is used by law enforcement agencies, banks, stock exchanges, and ATM operators to conduct due diligence investigations and block the security chain. With greater forensic depth, it examines where the funds in question come from, where they are going, and the profiles of the agencies involved. At the end of September, BIGG was able to convince a federal agency in the United States to use the program. The license runs for one year and costs the agency CAD 320,000.

    Canada's first regulated trading platform

    In the second pillar, Netcoins, a brokerage and stock exchange software is in development to make the buying and selling of cryptocurrency easily accessible to mass consumers and investors, with a focus on compliance and security. Just last month, Netcoins filed for registration with the British Columbia Securities Commission (BCSC) and the Canadian Securities Administrators (CSA), which, if approved, would allow Netcoins to operate the first regulated open-loop crypto-asset trading platform in Canada. For the young Company, this would be a huge milestone.

    Pioneering work offers enormous potential.

    BIGG CEO Mark Binns commented: "BIGG believes the future of crypto is a compliant, safe and regulated environment. It is the basis of existence for our company. Pending this regulatory approval, Netcoins will be the first registered open-loop crypto-trading platform in Canada. This will be a fundamental change for crypto trading in Canada. As individuals and corporations seek to trade crypto assets, they would have a fully legal and registered platform available to them. We also believe this will have a significant positive impact on Netcoins trading volumes in the coming months, being a unique competitive advantage. We look forward to updating our shareholders further with developments in the coming weeks."

    Between market panic and profit: What Almonty has in common with Apple and IBM

    The war in Iran has long since become a conflagration in the Middle East, including energy price shocks. Trading on Tuesday was particularly typical of this market environment. The day perfectly reflects the psychological state of market participants. Driven by horror stories from the Middle East and concerns about a global energy crisis, many stocks experienced drastic fluctuations. But while many stocks are still under pressure, Almonty's share price revealed a pattern that experienced market participants interpret as a sign of relative strength. After initially falling sharply, the stock stabilized rapidly, pushing the price back up significantly before the close of trading. In periods of extreme uncertainty, investors are not looking for short-term speculation, but rather for companies with a unique market position, a crisis-proof margin structure, and operating potential based on irreplaceable resources. We draw historical comparisons and explain that even heavyweights such as IBM and Apple have had to weather headwinds in the past.

    Gold in the ground, cash on the way: Why Desert Gold is well positioned for the gold boom fueled by the Iran war

    When major industry players start writing billion-dollar checks to buy their way into a region, investors should take a closer look. The acquisition of Canadian producer Allied Gold by Chinese giant Zijin Mining for CAD 5.5 billion caused a stir in West Africa at the beginning of the year. But above all, it is a wake-up call for anyone still searching for the gems that the market has overlooked. In the immediate vicinity of the acquired Allied Gold concessions, in the same highly productive Senegal-Mali Shear Zone (SMSZ), lies Desert Gold with a market capitalization of around CAD 35 million. The company owns an impressive 440 sq km of exploration ground within the same highly productive structural corridor that hosts operations owned by Barrick, B2Gold, and Endeavour. Geologically, this is the Champions League. From a valuation standpoint, however, Desert Gold plays in a completely different league. This discrepancy between geological setting and market capitalization forms the core of the investment thesis.

    War in focus, silver in the portfolio: Why Newmont, Silver Viper Minerals, and First Majestic Silver are now must-own stocks

    The escalating war in Iran has suddenly catapulted precious metals into the center of investor attention. While gold, as a classic crisis hedge, has reached new heights, silver is undergoing an unprecedented revaluation. It combines the security of a precious metal with its irreplaceable role as a high-tech raw material for photovoltaics, e-mobility, and AI infrastructure. Geopolitical supply chain risks are exacerbating an already existing supply deficit, while industrial demand is reaching record levels. Investors are now wondering which companies are best positioned in this environment. We therefore take a look at the strategies of Newmont, Silver Viper Minerals, and First Majestic Silver.
