Explosive mix: Critical metals and e-mobility! BYD, Mercedes-Benz, Graphano Energy, and RENK in focus
E-mobility in Germany could gain fresh momentum in 2026, as the CDU wing of the federal government is pushing for the reintroduction of purchase incentives for electric vehicles, retroactively including those registered since the beginning of the year. There is still a need for discussion within the SPD due to other issues. German citizens are familiar with the nerve-wracking process of reaching compromises in Berlin, where a new law can only be passed with five other concessions to the coalition partner. This is how grand coalitions work: slowly and tenaciously. Regardless, the public has become accustomed to this carnival event, and for us, stock market traders, it is important to look at the possible effects of such subsidy decisions. According to estimates from the Federal Ministry for the Environment, available funding could support the purchase of up to 800,000 electric vehicles - roughly 1.6% of all registered vehicles in Germany. The planned incentives aim primarily to ease the transition to e-mobility for low- and middle-income households. Do not look a gift horse in the mouth! How are automotive stocks doing on the stock market?

Lithium shortage grows: How BYD, NEO Battery Materials, and DroneShield are benefiting
A new era of scarcity is dawning. Lithium prices are skyrocketing. As lithium becomes the strategic oil of the 21st century, entirely new technologies are fueling the appetite for energy. Electric mobility, drones, robotics, and AI all have one thing in common: they are driving up demand for energy storage systems that need to be more powerful, more efficient, and simply more robust. In this race for what is arguably the most important resource of our time, what counts most is secure supply chains. Without them, the much-vaunted technology of the future will fall by the wayside. We take a look at three specific companies that are benefiting from the new technologies: BYD, NEO Battery Materials, and DroneShield.

Boom & Bust 2026 – Where can investors still position themselves? BYD, BMW, DroneShield, and Power Metallic Mines
New highs every day – it is nothing short of a miracle. The international trouble spots around Ukraine, Gaza, and Venezuela appear to be growing with the addition of Syria and Iran. This means the next gear for the arms industry. The under-militarized NATO countries, in particular, are likely to continue to push ahead, as the US's guarantee of support for Western countries is no longer considered viable. Those who can no longer defend themselves today are at risk of being overrun by trigger-happy dictators. This makes things interesting for DroneShield and Power Metallic. The automotive industry must also show how it can get consumers back behind the wheel. The capital markets remain highly valued and extremely exciting, but the eternal one-way street of high tech still seems to have many potholes. Which stocks can overtake on the right?

Winners and losers in the silver shock: A look at the current situations of BYD, Silver North Resources, and Intel
A new battle over a familiar commodity is shaping the future of major global megatrends. Silver, critical for green energy, electromobility, and the electronics and semiconductor industries, is at the center of an explosive supply gap. The recent surge in silver prices is putting pressure on corporate margins, and like any crisis, it is creating both winners and losers. We therefore take a closer look at the current situation of BYD, Silver North Resources, and Intel.

Up and down: Doublers and halvers among themselves! BYD, VW, DroneShield, and Power Metallic
And once again, it is full steam ahead. While last year saw a sunny scenario in terms of returns for AI, defense, and silver stocks, these sectors are performing even better in the new year. Rumors of a physical silver shortage have now been confirmed by futures exchange warehouses. This could mean that the "one-way movement" in strategic metals will continue. Rumor has it that the shortages may even be spreading to a range of industrial metals. As the world's largest producer of these raw materials, China is tightening export controls and redirecting resources toward its domestic industry. Much of this is still unconfirmed, but the recent price explosion to over USD 12,000 for copper speaks volumes. Investors would be well advised to diversify their allocations to be ready for the most important developments!

BYD vs. Tesla! AI beneficiaries BioNTech and Rio Tinto partner Aspermont! Stocks for 2026?
A bombshell just before New Year's Eve! BYD has knocked Tesla off its electric vehicle throne. The Chinese company is now also the global market leader in purely electric vehicles. However, the stock clearly disappointed in 2025. One potential winner in 2026 could be Aspermont shares. The Company combines the booming commodities sector with a scalable technology business model in what is likely a unique way. The stock appears anything but expensive. BioNTech shareholders, on the other hand, had little to cheer about in 2025, as the stock lost almost 30% of its value. However, important study data is due in the current year. Analysts see a buying opportunity.

Rally in sight – Zinc is the secret beneficiary of the steel boom and electric vehicles! Recognize the potential in Pasinex Resources, BYD, and Salzgitter!
The year 2025 was marked by sharply rising prices for raw materials. These included precious metals, especially silver, critical raw materials, but also industrial metals such as copper. The bottom line is that this year's rally passed zinc by. Starting at high prices in January, the price of the volatile industrial metal fell by around 10% over the course of the year. Zinc is used in a wide range of industrial and technological applications: as corrosion protection for steel, in alloys, and as electrode material for certain types of batteries. As the long-term growth drivers remain intact, investing in zinc offers good opportunities. Companies such as Pasinex Resources, which have high-grade deposits and can therefore achieve well above-average margins, are to be favored.

Record year – Will 2026 be even better for BYD, Kobo Resources, Palantir, and DroneShield?
After an exceptionally strong 2025, investors are asking whether the rally can continue into 2026. Gold and silver reached new all-time highs at the turn of the year, and promising gold stocks such as Kobo Resources have gained more than 40% in recent weeks. Palantir Technologies, expensively valued but still widely recommended by analysts, has continued to reward shareholders. The V-shaped movement at DroneShield is also exciting, with its shares already doubling from their December sell-off lows. Meanwhile, BYD is entering a decisive phase as it accelerates its expansion strategy in Europe. What should investors focus on next?

Will 2026 start with another surge? We evaluate BYD, NEO Battery Materials, and DroneShield
In December, many market participants start thinking about the next investment period – in this case, the year 2026. The 2025 investment year was one of the best periods of the past 20 years for both the DAX and the NASDAQ, with gains of 18.7% and 20.8%, respectively. Even the Trump tariff crash in April was offset entirely within just two weeks. The drivers of the upswing remain the US administration's policy, which is perceived as "supportive," as well as ongoing geopolitical conflicts and still tolerable interest rates between 2.7% (Bund) and 4.0% (USD Treasury) in the ten-year range. For the coming year, some experts expect another wave of inflation, high commodity prices, and rising energy costs. These are all factors that could once again stifle the economic upturn and bring additional volatility to the markets. And let's not forget: AI and defense seem to be at their peak — so who will lead the next revaluation of the stock markets?

Electric mobility is booming, lithium prices are rising again – An assessment of BYD, Power Metallic Mines, and Volkswagen
The era of the combustion engine is coming to an end. A new ecosystem of technology, raw materials, and manufacturing power is emerging, presenting extraordinary opportunities for early investors. The race toward electrification is in full swing, driven by exploding registration numbers and a rapidly expanding charging infrastructure. But the real leverage lies deeper. Access to critical metals, which are the lifeblood of every battery, is indispensable. As supply chains reorganize, three very different companies are positioning themselves: the emerging giant BYD, the raw materials explorer Power Metallic Mines, and the traditional heavyweight Volkswagen.
