Volatility has increased sharply on the stock markets in recent days. The overall mood is negative. Technology stocks, in particular, are suffering from rising interest rates. In China, energy shortages due to a lack of coal are slowing economic growth, and worries surrounding Evergrande's insolvency continue. The insolvent real estate group has sent a sign of life and gives investors hope. Investors also have renewed hope in hydrogen stocks like Plug Power. For the purchase of gold shares, one needs courage at present. However, this could soon be rewarded in the case of Triumph Gold, for example.

    Triumph Gold: Indication of good drilling results?

    When it gets stormy on the stock markets, then the hour of gold strikes. Indeed. After the high in the summer of 2020 at over USD 2,050, the air is out of the gold price. Currently, an ounce can be bought for around USD 1,750. Also, from a chart-technical point of view, there is nothing to be said about an increase. But this is precisely the environment for anti-cyclical investing. In addition to the standard stocks such as Barrick Gold and Newmont, it is worth looking at explorers such as Triumph Gold Corp. The market value of the Canadian gold explorer is currently below EUR 20 million. Like the entire industry, the Triumph share has corrected significantly and is trading almost 50% below its high for the year. At the same time, important drill results are pending.

    Triumph is currently focusing on the Freegold Mountain project in the mining-friendly Yukon region. The area covers 200 sq km and is located in the Dawson Range copper-gold belt. Recently, the Company announced the completion of a 19-hole, 6,615m diamond drilling program on the Freegold Mountain property in the Nucleus and Revenue areas. In advance of the campaign, the Company had completed an extensive study in conjunction with Minerva Intelligence. The analysis, conducted with the assistance of artificial intelligence, indicated new gold and copper mineralization. Final drill results should be available no later than October.

    A recent personnel development indicates that the drilling is successful. Thus, Brian May is Triumph Gold's new president. He joined Triumph Gold in November 2020 as a senior geoscientist and is an integral part of the exploration team at the Freegold Mountain project. If there were problems there, he would be unlikely to be promoted. So the coming weeks should be exciting at Triumph Gold.

    Evergrande sells silverware

    China Evergrande has also been exciting for weeks, but not to the delight of investors. The insolvent real estate group is struggling to solve its problems without triggering a quake like the Lehman bankruptcy. There has now been an interim success along this path. Evergrande has sold its stake in Shengjing Bank. For the 19.93% stake, the ailing group will receive around USD 1.5 billion. The buyer is the state-owned asset Company Shenyang Shengjing. On the back of the news, Evergrande shares rose by over 10% on Wednesday. However, this should only mean a breather. After all, the Chinese group is more than USD 300 billion in debt to customers, banks and investors. The Chinese government has recently indicated that it will not rescue Evergrande but will support an orderly liquidation.

    Plug Power builds in the USA

    There is positive news from Plug Power. In California, the Company plans to build an innovative plant to produce green hydrogen from wastewater. After completion in 2023, the plant in Fresno County is to be the largest hydrogen production facility on the US West Coast. It will then supply customers "from San Diego to Vancouver" with 30 metric tons of liquid green hydrogen daily while simultaneously processing wastewater from the neighboring city of Mendota. The plant's energy supply is to be ensured by the construction of its solar park with a capacity of 120 MW. The plant is an essential building block on Plug Power's way to offer green hydrogen at competitive prices in the future.


    Plug Power is demonstrating that it is one of the most solid and leading hydrogen companies. Evergrande is sending a sign of life that should not be overstated, and Triumph Gold offers itself for anti-cyclical gold investment.

    Mitigating Risk, Capturing Opportunity: Pan American Silver and Franco-Nevada – Upside Potential at Globex Mining

    • Mining

    • Commodities
    • Silver
    • royalties

    In this volatile market environment, commodity investors are once again turning more heavily to safe havens to reduce their risks. While established producers like Pan American Silver are solidifying their market position by operating large mines in North and South America and taking full advantage of rising silver and gold prices, the royalty model has proven its worth on the financing front. Industry leaders such as Franco-Nevada have demonstrated for decades how a broadly diversified portfolio of royalties can generate consistent cash flows without having to bear the risks of active mining. Globex Mining operates in the same strategic niche with a portfolio of over 270 projects and 107 royalties, consistently focusing on politically stable jurisdictions such as Canada and the US. The combination of a strong cash position, stakes in partner companies such as Pan American Silver, and the steady generation of new royalties paints a clear picture: Globex Mining operates like a smaller-scale version of Franco-Nevada, offering investors both stability and growth opportunities. Since this agile project generator is even active in critical metals like antimony, investors should take a closer look at the company.

    The war in Iran is sending oil prices skyrocketing, with a 60% surge in just a few weeks. Inflation is returning. What is the best way for investors to protect themselves now? Oil stocks like Shell are benefiting directly from the price shock. Gold has recently pulled back, but this very dip is an opportunity for bold buyers before interest rates start rising. Real estate remains solid, but expensive and sluggish. We look at one company from each category—Shell, Lahontan Gold, and Vonovia—and examine their current situation.

    Commodity Companies: Diversification Is Key - From Giant Glencore to Avrupa Minerals and Pan American Silver

    One project, high risk—that is how some investors view commodity stocks that focus on a single project or mine. And there are plenty of such companies listed on the stock market. While this approach has its advantages, it is not suitable for every type of investor. Especially since not every investor has the time to invest broadly across different stocks to reduce their risk. An alternative is broadly diversified companies that can be found across all sectors of the commodities spectrum—from large, globally active miners to savvy junior explorers. That is why today we are taking a closer look at the stocks of Glencore, Avrupa Minerals, and Pan American Silver.
