Trump Lifts Tariffs on Tungsten: Implications for Almonty, historical parallels with Nucor and Cameco

  • Mining
  • Tungsten
  • Uranium
  • Steel
  • Tariffs

There is hardly a trading day without a tariff headline: Over the weekend, US President Donald Trump announced the exemption of several key imports — including gold, uranium, and tungsten — from import tariffs. The measure highlights just how strategically important these two raw materials, in particular, have become for the country. No tariffs should hinder trade in tungsten and other critical materials. This is good news for tungsten producer Almonty Industries, which has only recently relocated its headquarters to the US and has already secured offtake agreements with US industry players. The Company is now preparing to bring its massive Sangdong mine in South Korea into production - a project that could account for more than 40% of the global tungsten supply outside China. It now appears likely that a large portion of this production can be exported to the US tariff-free. We take a closer look at what the US government's measures mean in concrete terms and what opportunities similar market interventions have created for investors in the past, with the examples of Nucor and Cameco.

Cameco, Energy Fuels, Almonty Industries, Vonovia – Trump decision causes stocks to explode

  • Mining
  • Tungsten
  • RareEarths
  • RealEstate

US President Donald Trump is again flexing his muscles and sent stock markets worldwide into a tailspin at the end of the week. This time, his chosen target is not China or Russia, but instead Europe, which the Republican is hitting with his tariff hammer and threatening with import tariffs of 50%. Another plan to be implemented in the United States in the short term by decree is the acceleration of reactor approvals, which has led to double-digit gains for uranium stocks. The aim is to minimize dependence on energy imports.

Hope for German industry: Amazon, Cameco, and First Hydrogen

  • Hydrogen
  • greenhydrogen
  • Uranium
  • nuclear

Political stock markets are short-lived, and the world keeps turning. Even if the current US administration is shaking this principle to its core, there are many indications that the trend toward green transformation will continue. A prime example: In Germany, the "Heating Act" is being loudly repealed, but its effects remain. Oil and gas are becoming increasingly expensive, and renewable solutions continue to be the preferred choice. The transformation is also progressing in industry – in the case of hydrogen specialist First Hydrogen, even more ambitiously than before.

COP28 Climate Summit in Dubai boosts uranium shares! Cameco, GoviEx Uranium, Siemens Energy and E.ON in focus

  • nuclear
  • renewableenergies

With a raised finger, Chancellor Scholz calls for a global shift away from fossil fuels in Dubai. Climate change remains "the great global challenge of our time". He is thus appealing to the almost 200 countries, which are holding energetic consultations until mid-December, to join in the energy transition formulated in Germany. Specifically, he proposed an agreement on two binding targets that are already consensus among the industrialized countries of the G20: One is to triple the expansion of renewable energy, and the other is to double energy efficiency - both by the year 2030. So far, more than 110 countries have agreed to expand green energy production at this rate. However, there is also the opposing party: around 20 countries want to almost triple their investment in nuclear energy. Where are the winners hiding?

Cameco, GoviEx Uranium, Nel ASA - The coast is clear

  • Uranium
  • renewableenergies
  • Electromobility

According to political plans, Germany wants to become climate-neutral by 2045, while the US has set itself this target for the middle of the current century. These targets are to be achieved through the use of renewable energies, heat pumps, electromobility and electricity and hydrogen networks. Outside of Germany, nuclear power is still being maintained, without which the climate targets could not be achieved, according to experts. While the price of uranium has climbed to a new 13-year high in recent weeks, renewable energy companies have been stumbling from one annual low to the next. Now, a bottom seems to be forming, at least in the short term.

Turning point in uranium: ThyssenKrupp Nucera, GoviEx Uranium, Cameco

  • Mining
  • Uranium
  • Hydrogen
  • Electromobility

The energy issue is a concern for industry and citizens. Consumers, in particular, are now so unsettled that they have decided to wait and see. But passivity is not a good advisor. Within industry, it has long been clear that hydrogen is the key to climate neutrality - the successful IPO of ThyssenKrupp Nucera underscores this. But there are energy alternatives: An agreement between Canada and Ukraine shines a spotlight on uranium.

Bright prospects - GoviEx Uranium, Cameco, Uranium Energy

Germany is taking a unique path in the green energy mix and, after shutting down the last three reactors, is doing without nuclear energy altogether. In contrast, global nuclear power capacities are steadily increasing, with 60 reactors currently under construction. Politicians in North America are supporting the expansion with programs worth billions to support the domestic uranium sector and, at the same time, minimize dependence on Russia.

RWE, Myriad Uranium, Cameco - The best environment ever

  • Mining

The geopolitical events of 2022 have heightened concerns about the security of supply and, combined with the ongoing focus on climate change, have created transformative tailwinds for the nuclear power industry. While Germany's last three nuclear reactors face shutdown, major industrialized nations are relying on zero-carbon nuclear power. As a result, the uranium price should be poised for a brilliant comeback after a bear market that has lasted for years.

With the exception of Germany, the world's largest industrialized nations are focusing on expanding nuclear energy to achieve the climate targets they have set. However, due to the Ukraine conflict and possible sanctions against Russia, growing demand has been met with limited supply. The US alone obtains almost half of the uranium it needs from state-owned companies in Russia or Kazakhstan. But rising demand is meeting a supply that is too tight. The primary beneficiaries here are Western companies in production or close to it.

Russia's uranium business is booming! Cameco, GoviEx Uranium, RWE - How investors benefit

Since the outbreak of the Ukraine war, the West has imposed sanctions on the Russian energy sector. However, as evaluations by the London-based Royal United Services Institute (RUSI) and the Bloomberg news agency show, Russia's nuclear exports increased in 2022. While customers such as Ukraine and the Czech Republic would have stopped their imports from Russia, China, for example, would step into the breach. We look into what the situation on the uranium market means and how investors can achieve rich returns.
