BYD, Desert Gold, Plug Power - ... then the lid flies off!

The US elections are over, the uncertainties due to the pandemic remain. The capital markets are still nervous and fluctuate strongly. Some stocks are on strike, and sales programs are underway, especially for smaller Companies. The motto of this haphazard "everything out" strategy is difficult to understand. When this unrealistic approach is recognized, there is a chance of short-term, disproportionately high price gains according to the motto: "If the order is out, the lid flies off".

    Best conditions

    The gold exploration Company Desert Gold Inc. is in good company, focusing on gold production in the West African country of Mali. Mali is rich in mineral resources and the third largest gold producer in Africa. Industry leaders like Barrick Gold, Iamgold or B2Gold also maintain several gold projects there. Desert Gold currently owns two projects in West Mali, namely SMSZ and Djimbala. Particular focus is now on the 410sq km SMSZ project, which extends over approximately 38 km of the productive Senegal-Mali shear zone. Drill samples indicate gold grades of up to 3.96 grams Au per tonne rock in all four exploration zones. To date, the SMSZ project is the most extensive contiguous, non-producing land package with this highly prospective structural feature.

    Big Players focus on Desert Gold

    In addition to well-known investment companies such as Merk Investments and the Canadian asset manager Leede Jones Gables, which hold 9.8% and 7.7% of Desert Gold, respectively, an investor who is a kind of accolade for the Company stands out. Commodity legend Ross Beaty can call 3.6% of the Company his own. The billionaire is regarded as the "Bill Gates of the commodity market", and one of his greatest successes was the founding of Pan American Silver, in 1994, now the world's largest silver Company. On the gold market, he wants to repeat this success story with his current Company, Equinox Gold.

    Selling pressure provides entry

    The value more than tripled in summer from CAD 0.10 to CAD 0.35. The way back to the lottery was started again, due to the corrective gold price. Currently, the Canadians are quoted at CAD 0.135, which equals a market capitalization of almost EUR 10 million. As is reported from trader circles, a large sell order has been in the market for weeks, which is hindering the successful development of the Desert Gold price. There is certainly no lack of positive news. At the beginning of September, the Company received CAD 6.8 million due to a private placement, which was significantly oversubscribed. The proceeds from the financing will enable the Company to complete drilling of approximately 20,000 metres in the coming exploration season. It also has the flexibility to expand the program if test results are promising. Conclusion: Once the order is out, the lid flies off!

    Sell for the Shooting Star

    The BYD share runs and runs and runs. Even a confirmed sell recommendation cannot harm the Chinese competitor of Tesla. The price target for the "Build your Dreams" share has been raised from CNY 68.00 to CNY 102. The analysts expect the automotive industry in China to remain robust. Possible cooperation with the car giant, Toyota, is also to be evaluated positively. The main reason for the sell rating is simply that the value is too expensive in a peer group comparison. Currently, the price-earnings ratio of BYD is 74, whereas the peer company Tesla has a price-earnings ratio of 100 and is therefore actually more expensive than the Chinese. What the analysts also do not price in is a possible spin-off of the very successful battery segment. Here, significant leaps would likely be due to special effects.

    In the fast lane

    The share of the fuel manufacturer Plug Power reacted in good time yesterday. Precisely at the horizontal support zone at the equivalent of EUR 14, the share turned north. This means an increase of more than 11%. The 9th of November is eagerly awaited. In addition to the Q3 figures, a brilliant outlook is to be reported here. According to rumors, the Americans are planning an annual turnover of USD 1.2 billion by 2024 with an annual profit of USD 200 million.

    Big news at the turn of the year! Nordex, Novo Nordisk, AJN Resources!

    • Mining

    • renewableenergy
    • Biotechnology

    Is now the time for gold explorers? The price of gold remains firmly above USD 4,300 per ounce, and shares of gold producers are performing well, perhaps even a little too well. Investors looking to continue participating in the gold bull market may therefore turn their attention to exploration companies. One such candidate is AJN Resources. The stock has already moved higher, yet still offers upside potential, supported by takeover speculation. Novo Nordisk has submitted an application for US approval following convincing Phase 3 results, a step that would be strategically significant for the Company. Meanwhile, Nordex remains one of the positive surprises of 2025, having reported another major order. The key question now is how far can the rally go?

    GOLD or SILVER? Both? Barrick Mining, First Majestic Silver, and Silver North Resources in focus!

    Gold and silver are not taking a break just before Christmas. The prices of precious metals are rising and rising. For silver, some experts' price target of USD 100 no longer seems unrealistic. First Majestic Silver's stock has performed even better. There is little choice among silver producers, and prices seem to be running hot. A shift to explorers in the coming year would come as no surprise. Silver North Resources is entering the new year with full coffers and positive results and aims to resume drilling as soon as possible. The Company is active in legally secure Canada, and its shares are attractive for investors. Those who missed the opportunity to invest in Barrick Mining in 2025 missed out on a threefold increase in value. The Company is also likely to have a few surprises in store in 2026. Perhaps even a hostile takeover?

    As the price of gold breaks records, Africa is experiencing an unprecedented boom. The continent has become not only a supplier but also a dynamic driver of innovation in industry. Low-cost deposits, growing local financing power, and an increasingly professional industry are creating a unique investment environment. This positive development is being fueled by a new partnership model between international expertise and local value creation. Three companies embody this promising path to the future: globally experienced producer Barrick Mining, up-and-coming explorer Desert Gold, and experienced African producer B2Gold.
