Commodities in Overdrive: BHP and Rio Tinto Cash In While Almonty Targets Critical Metals in Greenland
What investors are witnessing in the markets now amounts to an almost tectonic shift. Energy and commodity prices are surging, while interest rates have climbed to levels not seen in seven years. The East is embracing protectionism, while the US-led West is taking an increasingly assertive stance. In this capitalist imperialism of deep pockets, the US president's territorial claims over Greenland, administered by Denmark, have added another layer of geopolitical tension. These trends extend beyond the traditional mining business and are causing significant turmoil in futures markets. The geopolitical fault line runs right through the Arctic, where Greenland, thanks to gigantic deposits such as the Tanbreez project, is in the crosshairs of the Pentagon and Western security agencies. China continues to control large parts of the global supply chain, but the strategic agreement between Washington and Copenhagen is erecting a powerful barrier. At the same time, tungsten prices on the world market are soaring, outpacing almost all other critical minerals. This indispensable industrial metal, essential for the defense industry and the AI chip sector, is subject to drastic export restrictions. These supply bottlenecks are driving Western buyers to the brink of despair. A wild mix of megalomania, panic, and sabre-rattling. Where do the opportunities lie for investors with strong nerves?

In April, he did not rule out military options and called control over the island an "absolute necessity" for US security. At the same time, negotiations are underway on the possibility of binding Greenland more closely to the US through a special agreement, a so-called Compact of Free Association (COFA), without formal annexation. However, the Danish government and the Greenlandic administration have signaled their clear rejection: Greenland is not "for sale" and its residents have no interest in becoming part of the US. Rising global tensions and the increasing scarcity of strategic raw materials are putting pressure on industry. The first effects are already being felt, particularly in the high-tech and defense sectors. A rush on strategic metals is underway - and investors are taking notice.
