  • Defense
  • CriticalMetals
  • maritime

Global value chains are being realigned. Fueled by ongoing geopolitical tensions, global supply chain restructuring and historic rearmament programs, the spotlight is shifting to companies that form the physical backbone of Western industry and defence. Investors looking to capitalize on tomorrow's trends can no longer ignore critical metals like tungsten and specialized defence companies. Almonty is positioning itself as a strategic tungsten supplier for Western industry and is helping to reduce dependence on China's dominant market position for this key metal. Analysts are bullish. Renk supplies indispensable key components for military vehicles through its specialized propulsion systems, while TKMS, with its submarines and naval vessels, stands for the security of sea lanes and maritime deterrence. Critical raw materials, military mobility, and modern fleets—where are the most attractive stock market opportunities?

A Shift in the Portfolio: Why Lahontan Gold Could Outperform Heavyweights Xiaomi and TKMS

The Chinese conglomerate Xiaomi is launching a major offensive with new foldable smartphones and electric vehicles, yet its share price remains under pressure. Meanwhile, the Kiel-based defence specialist TKMS is seeing a noticeable pullback after reaching an all-time high last August. Is the sell-off in the defence stock merely a healthy breather, or is a deeper correction on the horizon? Beyond these two companies, a smaller stock in the commodities sector could attract even more attention, as Lahontan Gold appears poised for a technical breakout after a prolonged consolidation phase. Backed by solid metrics from its initial PEA, the stock is now experiencing a dynamic upward trend. We take a closer look at all three stocks and highlight which one could potentially have the edge as a portfolio holding.

Volkswagen, Strategic Resources and TKMS: How to Capitalize on the Mega-Trend of Defence and Raw Materials

  • VTM
  • ironore
  • GreenSteel
  • Defense
  • Electromobility
  • decarbonization

When a vehicle manufacturer becomes a defence contractor, a raw materials developer provides the key to green steel production, and a naval group reports record orders, a realignment of German industry is taking shape. Volkswagen is on the brink of its most profound transformation and is turning to the defence sector as a lifeline. At the same time, the race for strategic resources is intensifying. Without decarbonized steel, there can be no modern defence, and this steel requires specific grades of iron ore. This is precisely where Strategic Resources comes in. While thyssenkrupp Marine Systems is benefiting from full order books, a new value chain is emerging. Today, we take a closer look at the shares of Volkswagen, Strategic Resources and TKMS.

Steyr Motors After the Sell-Off: Buy the Dip? TKMS Rides the Defense Boom — Strategic Resources Set to Benefit From Soaring Steel Demand

  • CriticalMetals
  • GreenSteel
  • Defense
  • geopolitics
  • Automotive

The global defense boom is not just filling the order books of manufacturers of tanks, missiles, and drones. Demand is also growing in the naval sector, and with it the demand for raw materials. TKMS urgently needs high-quality steel for its submarines and frigates and is working to establish resilient supply chains. This is where Strategic Resources comes into play. The raw materials company operates in Canada and Northern Europe—the very regions that are playing a central role in TKMS's latest megaproject. The stock appears undervalued. But is Steyr Motors also a bargain after its recent sell-off? Analysts certainly think so. They recommend buying the stock. The weak first half and lowered guidance should primarily be viewed as the result of defense-related orders being pushed back in timing, rather than a fundamental deterioration in demand.

TKMS Keeps Soaring! When Will DroneShield and Volatus Aerospace Take Off Again?

  • Drones

  • hightech
  • aerospace
  • geopolitics

Nearly 50% gains in just a few weeks. TKMS is currently riding a wave of success, and analysts believe the stock has further upside potential. The company is a prime example of the comeback staged by traditional defence stocks in recent weeks. By contrast, many drone stocks continue to struggle. It seems like a strange disconnect, since few would dispute that drones and counter-drone systems are playing an increasingly important role, not only in current conflict zones. Accordingly, the investment needs of armed forces and security agencies are likely to remain substantial in the coming years. So when will companies such as Volatus Aerospace and DroneShield take off again?

Rheinmetall Challenges TKMS! Renk Shares Jump 20%, While Volatus Aerospace Unveils New Drone Application

  • Drones
  • Defense
  • geopolitics

Renk shares have gained about 20% in value in just a few days. Yesterday, the company released its half-year results, which delivered a mixed picture. The key question now is whether the recent rally still has room to run. Meanwhile, DroneShield shares have surged by nearly 30% in recent trading. Even so, Volatus Aerospace has outperformed so far in 2026, and the drone specialist's shares may still offer additional upside potential. The latest announcement shows that the Canadian company's growth opportunities are strong not only in the military sector but also in the civilian sector. In the future, Volatus plans to deploy autonomous heavy-lift aircraft for wildfire suppression, disaster response, and a range of other government applications across Canada, further strengthening its position in the rapidly expanding market for commercial and public-sector drone services.

RENK Group, Volatus Aerospace, and TKMS: Defence Boom – Three Ways to Capitalize on the Land, Air, and Sea Opportunity

  • aerospace
  • Drones
  • Defense
  • hightech

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

  • ironore
  • Steel
  • GreenSteel
  • VTM

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.
