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?

ATTENTION - The next 100% opportunity could be here: Almonty, RENK, TKMS, and Infineon
Shares related to artificial intelligence continue to be a major focus in the market, even though the initial euphoria has subsided somewhat recently. Critical voices are increasingly warning of setbacks or even a significant correction. Among these skeptics is the well-known investor Michael Burry, who is said to have bet on falling prices for Nvidia and other industry peers. At the same time, shares linked to critical metals and their industrial end users have once again moved into the spotlight since the turn of the year. This is because tech specialists and AI infrastructure providers are under pressure to meet extremely high requirements in terms of energy supply, computing capacity, speed, and reliability. As a result, further opportunities are emerging for selected stocks. We highlight a few of these potential plays.

Peace dividend: How Antimony Resources, the RENK Group, and Lockheed Martin are reaping the rewards of military buildup
The new era of security will be decided deep underground in mines. The indispensable raw material for modern defense systems is antimony, a metal that is threatening to disappear from the world market and whose price is rising sharply. This strategic shortage creates a historic opportunity to invest directly at the source. The greatest potential is offered by the exploration company Antimony Resources, whose success in turn drives key suppliers such as the RENK Group and system builders such as Lockheed Martin.

Short-Term Politics, Long-Term Megatrends: Investing in NEO Battery Materials, RENK, and TKMS for 2026!
Following the spectacular arrest of Venezuelan President Maduro by US special forces, the international financial markets are entering a new phase of geopolitical uncertainty with direct and indirect effects on commodity markets and strategic supply chains. Washington's military action in the capital, Caracas, and the subsequent transfer of Maduro to New York have triggered sharp international criticism and raised urgent questions under international law. Despite these challenges, the megatrends of sustainable mobility and energy storage will continue. At the same time, defense industry players remain among the winners. Canadian company NEO Battery Materials is active across all these fields and represents a high-opportunity investment.

Three potential takeover candidates for 2026: Puma, RENK, and CHAR Technologies
Which companies could become acquisition targets in 2026, and where might shareholders benefit from strategic interest? Three names stand out. From the booming energy sector, CHAR Technologies is attracting attention. The Canadian company has only recently been listed on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, but has already completed its development phase and is targeting strong revenue growth. CHAR benefits from strong partners such as ArcelorMittal, which could easily manage an acquisition. RENK is also a candidate: anchor shareholder KNDS could make good strategic use of an acquisition in the context of its IPO story, and the former RENK CFO is already on board. Things are also likely to remain interesting at Puma. According to analysts, a takeover premium of around 30% could be on the cards.

Top tips for 2026 – Critical metals and armaments! DroneShield, Pasinex, RENK, and Heidelberger Druck in focus
In 2025, there was a pronounced rally in critical metals starting in the summer. This was largely triggered by China, which imposed export restrictions on rare metals and strategic raw materials in response to arbitrary tariff demands from the White House. The metal markets reacted with strong upward movements, and the procurement centers of Western industry reacted even more severely. In view of the needs of the near future, a large number of properties would have to be brought into production in the areas of copper, graphite, lithium, uranium, zinc, and rare earths. However, it takes around 10 years to set up a mine, including all permits and preliminary investigations. Because this is far too long for the current needs, the market is looking at projects that are about to start production or are already producing. We offer a few ideas from the supply chain and potential customers.

Milestone for Almonty Industries! Full order books at RENK and TKMS! Here is what analysts say
A milestone for Almonty Industries: the tungsten mine in South Korea goes into operation. This positions the raw material gem for strong revenue and earnings growth in the coming years. Analyst estimates are based on significantly lower prices and could therefore be too conservative. The stock is rebounding. Defense stocks are currently being weighed down by the possibility of peace in Ukraine, but order books remain well filled. Shortly before Christmas, RENK is celebrating a million-euro order from the German Armed Forces for various tanks. TKMS has no worries about revenue for the coming years, with an order backlog of EUR 18.5 billion, nearly nine times its annual sales. Analysts recommend buying.

Great potential in the defense sector! RENK, Hensoldt, NEO Battery Materials
Milestone at NEO Battery Materials! With the lease of its new operational battery facility, NEO Battery is now ready to start commercializing its high-performance battery technology for defense, automotive and energy sectors. The new factory eliminates the need for time-consuming and costly construction. Orders and partnerships are also already in place. It is likely only a matter of time before batteries are also used in tanks. In Germany, RENK, for example, is developing drives for vehicles weighing up to 70 tons. Analysts consider the recent sell-off in defense stocks to be exaggerated. Their current favorite is Hensoldt. However, the sensor specialist is not recommended as a buy by all experts.

What is going on? Sharp price swings for Almonty Industries, Klöckner & Co., and RENK!
Negotiations to end the war between Russia and Ukraine are dragging on. The 28-point plan originally drafted by the US government has now been reduced to 20 points and is to be presented to Ukraine. In general, skeptical voices are growing louder, with many not expecting an agreement to be reached anytime soon. Against this backdrop, defense stocks such as Rheinmetall and RENK are rising. Equally exciting is Almonty Industries, a Canadian manufacturer of the critical metal tungsten, which is also in high demand in the defense industry. Recently, the stock fell significantly to an attractive price level.

RENK better than HENSOLDT? Risk at NOVO NORDISK! Billion-dollar opportunity with RZOLV Technologies!?
Is RENK's stock better than Hensoldt's? That is what analysts are saying. According to them, the transmission specialist is attractively valued at the current level. Hensoldt, on the other hand, is having problems converting its order backlog into revenue growth, leading to a significant reduction in its price target. In contrast, RZOLV Technologies shares have enormous upside potential. The Company aims to replace a toxic chemical used in gold extraction, thereby opening up a billion-dollar market. Development is nearly complete, and patents have been filed. In just a few months, RZOLV could become a hot takeover candidate. Meanwhile, takeovers currently appear to be a way for Novo Nordisk to replenish its drug pipeline, with the Danish company taking risks worth billions - Pfizer, take note.
