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.

    Gold & silver with a record year – 100% in 2026 too? Barrick, Kobo Resources, First Majestic, and Endeavour Silver

    Gold and silver remain the surprise of 2025. Despite many prophecies of doom, both precious metals have so far managed to hold on to their record highs of USD 4,350 and USD 58.50, respectively. After a brief correction at the end of last week, the highly volatile silver price quickly rose back to the USD 58.00 mark. Experts warn of an approaching pain threshold for short sellers and futures speculators. They had hoped to be able to close their uncovered positions at a favorable price before the approaching settlement date on November 28. Far from it, because on Friday, metals took off again. According to traders, it is currently almost impossible to procure sufficient quantities of physical silver to cover the many derivative transactions. This is leading to unusual behavior on the market. So where should investors pay close attention now?

    Gold, drones, and specialty glass! Just like that, 200% gains out of nowhere with DroneShield, AJN Resources, and Gerresheimer

    The stock market is showing its volatile side. While AI, defense, and tech stocks are consolidating, gold and silver are skyrocketing. Sector rotation is therefore in full swing at the end of the year. It is time to take a closer look at some notable movements, because every bull and bear market contains the seeds of the next reversal. DroneShield up 1,000% and then down 75%, AJN Resources suddenly up 200% from a standing start, and Gerresheimer, a fallen angel down 60%, a battered member of the German SME sector. We take a closer look at these stocks – where is it worth taking action?

    A 100% price gain not enough? Barrick Mining, First Majestic Silver, and gold gem Kobo Resources!

    Barrick Mining's share price has risen by over 100% in the current year. The consolidation of the gold price in recent weeks has had virtually no impact on the Company, and analysts see further upside potential. The Company is closing a billion-dollar deal, and the major problem within the group appears to have been resolved. Now, precious metal prices are rising again. This should also herald a return to prosperity for exploration companies. Kobo Resources is emerging as a hot takeover candidate. The gold explorer has reported high-grade results. A neighbor will be watching developments closely. And what is First Majestic Silver doing? The Company has divested itself of a stake.
