Copper is one of the important metals in modern life. When it comes to the energy transition and the change in mobility, the red metal is of great importance. In the global competition between industrial market players, access and price therefore play an important role. Raw material nations such as Canada supply the market with the ingredient of countless technical devices, which are often produced in the Middle Kingdom. For this reason, it is particularly interesting to hear the opinion of an expert. Claudia Tornquist is the CEO of Kodiak Copper Corp. and is exploring for new copper deposits in British Columbia.

    What is your view on the current global copper market and what advice do you have for investors?

    ‘At this time there is a lot of uncertainty around the global economy with concerns about recession, cost inflation, supply chain disruptions and more. This uncertainty weighs on copper prices and we have seen a reversal of sentiment in the market. Speculative investors have gone risk-off, even though the physical copper market remains robust, producers are reporting strong demand from customers and inventories remain at historical lows. If the sentiment turns, we could see the market rebound quickly.

    The long-term picture for copper remains extremely strong: big demand for the red metal driven by the green revolution, and very little supply to meet this demand. 85% of the world economy is now on a net-zero carbon goal and a lot of copper will be required to build the electric vehicles, wind and solar systems and transmission infrastructure to meet these targets. There are currently not enough new copper projects being developed to meet even modest growth forecasts and more copper discoveries are needed.

    That’s exactly the business Kodiak Copper is in, we made the Gate Zone copper porphyry discovery at our MPD project in Southern British Columbia, which is located in an established mining district with excellent infrastructure. The company is backed by a strong team led by founder and chairman Chris Taylor of Great Bear fame. Kodiak is currently executing a large, fully-funded 25,000 metre drill program and is well placed to generate shareholder value by expanding the Gate Zone which remains open in multiple directions plus testing multiple additional targets with similar discovery potential.’

    The demand for strategic metals, the challenging geopolitical environment, and new exploration methods—these factors are prompting established corporations and smaller exploration companies to adapt their business models in the face of these multifaceted challenges. While the major producers are streamlining their portfolios, which have grown over the years and are sometimes complex, smaller companies are demonstrating agility by divesting marginal projects and focusing on promising deposits in politically stable regions. We examine these developments and highlight exciting companies.

    Should investors sell shares of Siltronic ahead of its upcoming quarterly results? That is what the analysts at mwb are advising. One point in particular stands out: despite the booming market, the German semiconductor company is still expected to report a loss. Meanwhile, Power Metallic Mines is targeting long-term value creation through the development of its copper and polymetallic projects. The first mineral resource estimate is scheduled for publication in July. That could finally be the turning point for the stock. Analysts continue to see significant upside potential. Despite the unresolved conflict in the Middle East, analysts recommend buying TUI shares and are even raising their price targets. The tourism group plans to open additional hotels this summer. This will extend value creation and boost margins. The focus is on Asia.

    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.
