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.’

    Gold for your portfolio: Why Barrick Mining, First Majestic Silver, and Kobo Resources are now in the spotlight for investors

    Precious metals are back in the spotlight, and three stocks in particular show how differently investors can profit from this trend. Kobo Resources is an up-and-coming gold explorer from Canada that is gradually building up an impressive gold deposit in West Africa. Barrick Mining is one of the industry's giants, but is currently struggling with strategic decisions and a decline in production. First Majestic Silver made a remarkable turnaround in 2025 and is ringing investors' cash registers. Three companies, three stories, but all united by one trend: rising metal prices are fueling the imagination. Those who do not take a look now could miss out on a real opportunity.

    Europe steps on the gas! E-mobility and secure supply chains - Avrupa Minerals, BYD, VW, and Stellantis

    • Automotive

    The stock market year has gotten off to a turbulent start, but a new megatrend is gaining traction: critical metals! While 2025 was dominated by AI and high-tech stocks, raw material suppliers, essential for maintaining industrial competitiveness, are increasingly moving into focus. Over the past 12 months, they have been able to offer investors dream returns in the three- to four-digit range. At the same time, there has been hardly any growth on the NASDAQ since the beginning of the year. Former high-flyers like Palantir, Nvidia, and Strategy are currently trading below their 2025 highs. International commodity stocks dealing with the issue of "Western supply chains" have now moved up the list of top performers. Without strategic metals, the secure production of electrical infrastructure, renewable energy systems, and defense technology is not possible. It is therefore worthwhile for investors to rethink their tech portfolios and add good commodity stocks to their watch lists. Meanwhile, the automotive sector, under pressure for months, could be stabilizing after the sobering results of 2025. We take a closer look at the key players.

    One of North America's largest polymetallic deposits is still available at a bargain price. Analysts at Noble Capital Markets believe Power Metallic Mines' stock could nearly triple in value. Renowned industry giants are already among the company's shareholders, giving it the seal of approval. In terms of valuation, the NYSE listing planned for this year will provide a boost. At Barrick, the precious metals boom is leading to record highs. The planned IPO of North American gold assets has not yet been priced in. Meanwhile, frustration prevails at TeamViewer despite megatrends such as AI. Where is it worth getting in now?
