CEO Buys Again After the Rally: Is Almonty Industries Setting Up for the Next Big Move?

  • Growth

When a stock has already delivered a strong rally, most CEOs turn cautious — they wait, stay quiet, and avoid adding risk. Lewis Black is doing the opposite. The CEO of Almonty Industries Inc. has expressed his commitment not once, but three times in recent months, backing his conviction with real capital. For investors, that’s often one of the most powerful signals in the market: Insiders don’t buy for attention. They buy because they believe something is coming.

    Main Story: Three Moves, One Clear Message

    Over the past months, Lewis Black has significantly reinforced his position through multiple share purchases and related transactions:
    November 2025: Purchased shares worth USD 316,500
    December 2025: Acquired additional shares worth CAD 412,499.25
    January 2026: Bought again for CAD 184,999.26
    These transactions were completed through capital measures and the conversion of warrants, which means one key thing: Almonty received fresh capital as a result of these actions. For growth-driven mining and resource companies, fresh funding can be a major strategic advantage — especially when building momentum.

    Lewis Black: A Proven Builder With a Track Record

    What makes this even more interesting is Lewis Black’s reputation. He has already built a company toward an acquisition in the past — and investors benefited along the way. It’s no secret that he may be pursuing a similar strategy again. In plain terms: he’s making the company look attractive. Because in many cases, the biggest value creation doesn’t happen through daily headlines — it happens through execution, financing, strategic positioning, and timing.

    Conclusion: A Signal Investors Should Watch Closely

    Three buy actions in just a few months — while also strengthening the company’s capital base — is more than a positive gesture. It’s a statement. Lewis Black is committing more of his own money even after the stock has already rallied. By now, Black holds 23.62 million shares and, according to Refinitiv, ranks as the company’s second-largest shareholder. For investors, that often suggests management believes the company is still in the early chapters of a much bigger story. It’s not a guarantee — but it’s the kind of signal that’s hard to ignore: When the CEO buys, the market pays attention.

    USD 100 million in revenue soon? Zefiro Methane impresses analysts!

    • Buy-and-Build

    • AI

    Created and published on behalf of Zefiro Methane Corp.

    Zefiro Methane is poised for significant growth. The specialist in plugging orphaned oil and gas wells is benefiting from rising government investment and a vast remediation market in the US. The data centre boom is providing an additional tailwind, as rapid construction requires large, uncontaminated sites. With its existing capacity, the CEO believes annual revenue of nearly USD 70 million is achievable. Through organic growth and targeted acquisitions, the company aims to reach USD 100 million in the medium term. Yesterday's developments provided further evidence of its ability to select acquisition targets strategically. Yet despite record revenue, an operational turnaround and long-term orders, the share price has barely moved so far. Analysts see more than 200% upside potential. Is Zefiro Methane an overlooked growth story?

    The US stock market is widely considered expensive, and bargains have become increasingly rare. Yet based on 2027 earnings estimates, some stocks still trade at a price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 10 or lower. Whether this alone constitutes a buy signal can be assessed using a formula developed by investing legend Benjamin Graham. It requires just a few inputs and accounts for what the P/E ratio alone overlooks: growth. Applied to companies such as PayPal, Citigroup and Almonty Industries, it produces some striking results — including the potential for substantial gains.

    Dividend hunters take note! 10% with RE Royalties, dividend surprise at BMW, will Mutares now follow suit?

    Dividends or growth? But why choose when you can have both? There are actually companies that deliver both. One example is RE Royalties, a Canadian specialist financier for renewable energy projects. Investors can expect a dividend yield of around 10%, combined with additional price potential for the moderately valued stock. Mutares could soon deliver a dividend surprise, which would also give the shares a new boost. Despite the challenging industry situation, auto manufacturer BMW is shining with a yield of over 5%.
