RENK Group, Volatus Aerospace, and TKMS: Defence Boom – Three Ways to Capitalize on the Land, Air, and Sea Opportunity
The West is in the midst of a fundamental overhaul of its security architecture. After years of relying on a relatively stable geopolitical environment, governments are now significantly increasing defence budgets to strengthen military readiness and resilience. As a result, companies supporting this structural transformation of the defence industry are benefiting from long-term demand. Modern defence capabilities are no longer defined solely by the number of platforms deployed, but increasingly by the integration of mobility, intelligence, surveillance, and maritime capabilities. Against this backdrop, RENK Group, Volatus Aerospace, and TKMS each offer distinct ways to gain exposure to the ongoing defence investment cycle. Together, they represent differentiated opportunities across the land, air, and maritime domains of modern defence.

Steel Is Strategic Again: How Strategic Resources and thyssenkrupp Could Benefit—and What It Means for TKMS
Geopolitical tensions, rising defence spending, the energy transition and the drive for more secure supply chains are placing renewed emphasis on industrial production and strategic materials. Without metals, specialty alloys, and high-performance materials, neither modern defence systems nor next-generation technologies can function. Strategic Resources is positioning itself at the heart of these critical trends. The company continues to advance its flagship BlackRock project in Canada. On the one hand, the Canadians aim to supply high-grade iron ore for the production of "green steel," which aligns with the megatrend of decarbonization. At the same time, however, the company has several additional growth opportunities up its sleeve.

Buy Recommendations for Almonty, Micron, and TKMS! Defense, Commodities, and Semiconductors with Upside Potential!
Compelling buying opportunities are emerging across several sectors. In commodities, Almonty Industries stands out as it ramps up production at its tungsten mine in South Korea, with revenue and earnings expected to accelerate sharply in the second half of the year. Analysts forecast a net profit of CAD 854.6 million next year, implying a forward P/E ratio of just 4.34—a valuation many consider too low for the only significant Western tungsten supplier. Analysts recommend buying. TKMS appears well positioned among the struggling defense companies. Analysts highlight its substantial order backlog, which is expected to provide strong earnings visibility well into the 2040s. Micron remains a higher-risk opportunity. Following its historic share price rally, investors are concerned about potential overcapacity. Micron is also investing billions, but analysts remain reassuring.

Defence or Artificial Intelligence? On the Hunt for Blockbusters with Rheinmetall, Hensoldt, Strategic Resources, and TKMS
The market is becoming increasingly concentrated. Despite fresh record highs in July, the number of true winners can almost be counted on one hand. The strongest performers continue to be a select group of high-tech and AI stocks, while semiconductor shares are already beginning to lose momentum. Meanwhile, oil and gas stocks are picking up speed again, while the long upswing in the defence sector that began in 2022 appears to be running out of steam. As a result, many defence companies ranked among the worst-performing stocks during the first half of the year. Now the summer slowdown has arrived, and even a potential interest cut by Fed Chair Kevin Warsh is unlikely to lift sentiment. The reason is straightforward: inflation remains stubbornly high, hovering around the 4% mark in the US for an unusually long time. President Donald Trump had hoped that replacing Jerome Powell would pave the way for lower interest rates, but those expectations now appear increasingly unrealistic. Then there is the tariff setback, which is costing US taxpayers another USD 100 billion. In short, the warning signs of a broader market correction are becoming increasingly difficult to ignore. For active investors, the only real question is when, not if. Against this backdrop, we take a closer look at the battered defence sector in search of the next potential blockbuster investment.

Portfolio Booster 2026: Staying Ahead of NATO's Military Build-Up with Rheinmetall, Volatus Aerospace, and TKMS
The era of tank divisions is largely over. Today, air and sea domains are merging into a networked battlefield where autonomous drones, AI-powered sensors, and maritime surveillance systems are the decisive forces. The NATO summit in Ankara and Germany's record budget of EUR 108 billion are massively accelerating this technological transformation. For investors, this means focusing on the next generation of air and maritime defence. Three companies embody the full scope of this transformation: the full-service provider Rheinmetall, the agile drone pioneer Volatus Aerospace, and the maritime systems partner TKMS.

Time to Exit Gerresheimer? TKMS Earns a Buy Rating as HPQ Silicon Attracts Growing Interest
Should investors sell shares of Gerresheimer? That is what some analysts are now recommending. Yet, following accounting issues, the delayed release of the annual report, speculation surrounding the BaFin audit, and changes in the executive board, things had recently settled down somewhat at the packaging specialist for the pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries. The stock had even staged a solid recovery. HPQ Silicon, meanwhile, could be poised for a revaluation. The technology company is entering the commercialization phase with several products, and its latest positive results have significantly increased interest from potential industry partners. Strategic options include joint ventures, licensing agreements, royalty-based production partnerships, and in-house production facilities. Against this backdrop, the stock appears to offer further upside potential. The same may be true for thyssenkrupp Marine Systems (TKMS). Following its recent multi-billion-dollar contract from Canada, analysts have raised both their earnings estimates and price targets. The order is expected to secure the company's production backlog well into the 2040s.

New Billions for TKMS, AI Rally at Alibaba, and Power Metallic Mines with Chart Potential
Geopolitical crises are like a ticking time bomb for the stock market. Over the weekend, the situation in the Strait of Hormuz escalated dramatically once again. Iran blocked one of the world's most important trade routes, container ships were fired upon, and the US responded with airstrikes. What may be just another headline for many, however, represents a completely new market dynamic for investors. This escalation in the Middle East is putting pressure on energy prices, thereby creating winners and losers in the most unexpected places. It is precisely at times like this, when the overall market comes under pressure again, that real opportunities emerge. The Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba, for example, is staging a fascinating comeback, while the German defense contractor TKMS should actually benefit from contracts worth billions. And then there are the companies profiting from critical raw materials. Companies like Power Metallic Mines, with their raw materials lying dormant underground, are also working toward the future of electric mobility—an industry on the verge of a revaluation. Three completely different companies, three completely different industries, but all directly or indirectly influenced by what is currently happening in the Persian Gulf. The question remains: who is really benefiting from this crisis, or which entry point offers a good setup? Read on to find out how you can profit from the current geopolitical tensions.

Swinging Up and Down – Will 2026 Bring More Record Highs? Rheinmetall, TKMS, Kobo Resources, and Hensoldt
The conflict in the Middle East has intensified once again. Efforts to reach a lasting agreement have so far failed, and a ceasefire based on a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) proved short-lived. Just days after it was announced, reports of renewed attacks on ships in the Strait of Hormuz and on critical energy infrastructure in the Gulf region have once again heightened geopolitical tensions. For oil prices, this is a bullish factor; for the stock market, it means yet another period of heightened volatility with sharp initial losses followed by recovery rallies. Yesterday, Germany's DAX 40 index climbed back above the key 25,000 mark, while defence stocks that had previously come under pressure moved back into the spotlight. At the same time, gold and silver prices weakened, possibly reflecting renewed liquidity pressures in global financial markets. The evolving market dynamics warrant a closer look.

Volatus Aerospace, TKMS, and Rheinmetall: Three Stocks for the Next Defence Boom
Financial markets had partly priced in a lasting ceasefire in the Persian Gulf, but the conflict has flared up again. U.S. President Donald Trump recently declared the ceasefire with Iran to be over. The global defence boom is far from running out of steam. On the contrary, it continues to gather momentum while constantly shifting its focus. After ammunition, tanks, air defence systems and drones, maritime defence is once again moving into the spotlight. Around the recent NATO summit in Ankara, for example, Canada announced multi-billion-dollar submarine plans involving thyssenkrupp Marine Systems (TKMS). At the same time, rising defence spending across Europe and the technological race in counter-drone capabilities underline the continuing need for military investment. Against this backdrop, investors may find new opportunities—from the more speculative Volatus Aerospace to the more established defence names TKMS and Rheinmetall.

Bombshell and Buy Rating! TKMS, SFC Energy, dynaCERT! Are Analyst Estimates Too Low?
Bombshell at TKMS. The company has landed a multi-billion-dollar order from Canada. The stock keeps climbing, while defense stocks are weakening overall. Will analysts soon raise their estimates? At dynaCERT, analysts are expecting the commercial breakthrough. If it comes, the stock has multi-bagger potential. In his latest interview, the new German CEO sounds confident. In emerging markets, dynaCERT is aiming to achieve its commercial breakthrough, and the market opportunity is substantial. While dynaCERT remains a higher-risk investment with the potential for a technical breakout, the rally in SFC Energy is already well underway. So far this year, the share has gained more than 70%. Analysts have welcomed the company's recent acquisition and continue to see additional upside potential for the shares.
