The financial crisis in 2008 and the current corona crisis differ fundamentally in the assessment of the economic aspects. Central banks and politicians have maintained growth and productivity by increasing the money supply in order to avert a global economic standstill in connection with the Lehman bankruptcy and its aftermath. At that time, the freshly printed money was used to invest, create something and create value. The current measures are about four times as high and the global economy is at a standstill - it is even in recession. From a social point of view, the measures to maintain social peace are appropriate, but when it comes to wealth creation, they resemble a catastrophe. There is a need for action.

    Gold doesn't grow back

    The precious metal gold is generally mined in an expensive process. In the first phase, deposits must be discovered through exploration. The discovery in itself is not enough to start production. The next step is to find out how large the deposits are. Exploration is risky and costly, but it is also the phase of value creation, where in relative terms, a high return on investment is possible. Once an economically viable amount of gold has been discovered, the development phase can begin, followed by production.

    Next acquisition target in the Yukon?

    Triumph Gold is a Canadian company focused on the exploration of its own projects in the Yukon. The Freegold Mountain project is located along a main road that is open to traffic year-round and therefore access is guaranteed. Drilling programs and discoveries continue to expand the amount of gold deposits. At a critical mass of proven gold and a certain price per ounce, a takeover by a producer is likely. Newmont already holds 18% of Triumph Gold and thus has a foot in the door.

    Canada's newest gold mine

    Victoria Gold is also located in the Yukon and has been producing at the Eagle Gold Mine since September 2019, after more than ten years of planning. At full capacity, an annual production volume of 210,000 ounces per year is to be achieved. The cost per ounce is estimated at USD 774.00, the margin is currently almost USD 1,000.00 per ounce. Total reserves of 3.3 million ounces have been determined, which is sufficient for a mining period of eleven years.

    Gold offers security for assets

    Considering that money is put into circulation without a deposited value, gold offers one of few ways to secure existing assets. Cash under the pillow or in the bank account can soon become a disadvantage in terms of purchasing power. The easiest way for investors to park their assets in shares of gold companies. The market value of Triumph Gold is CAD 23 million, Victoria Gold is valued at CAD 813 million and Newmont's market capitalization was recently over CAD 63 billion.

    Gold boom as an enormous price lever for explorers like Desert Gold Ventures! In or out of Barrick and First Majestic Silver?

    In recent weeks, gold and silver prices have reached new all-time highs. Silver in particular has seen a sharp increase in volatility at these elevated price levels. US investment banks remain bullish and forecast a gold price of at least USD 4,900 by year-end. Gold continues to serve as a safe haven amid geopolitical tensions, high government debt, and declining purchasing power. In addition, strategic purchases by central banks are on the rise. Taken together, these factors create a favorable environment for precious metals and producers. Last year, the shares of mining operators such as Barrick and First Majestic outperformed precious metal prices. It is characteristic of a later phase of a bull market that investor preferences shift toward explorers such as Desert Gold. We take a closer look at three industry representatives and their potential.

    Gold rush without toxins: Why Newmont and Equinox are under pressure, and RZOLV Technologies could become the key stock of the new super cycle

    Gold is back on the big stage. Driven by geopolitical hot spots, structural weakness in the US dollar, and the insatiable appetite of central banks, the precious metal is racing from one all-time high to the next. But while prices are rising, the situation for mine operators is deteriorating: dependence on highly toxic cyanide is becoming more and more of a problem. Environmental regulations are becoming stricter, approval procedures are dragging on for decades, and social resistance is blocking billion-dollar projects. The technology company RZOLV Technologies is positioning itself in this area of tension between record prices and ecological dead ends. While industry giants such as Newmont and Equinox Gold are looking for ways to secure their production in a sustainable manner, RZOLV is providing the long-awaited technological answer: gold extraction that does not require any toxic chemicals and thus has the potential to reshuffle the cards in global mining.

    Nordex shares continue their strong momentum in 2026, rising nearly 10% in just a few trading days. Investors are responding to the wind turbine manufacturer's strong year-end performance with heavy buying, prompting analysts to raise their price targets. In contrast, sentiment on Hensoldt is more cautious. Analysts recommend selling, citing a lack of fundamental support for the recent price gains and warning of rising competitive pressures. Meanwhile, gold has shrugged off recent selling pressure and is marching back toward USD 4,500. Gold explorer Kobo Resources stands to benefit from this trend. In a recent interview, the CEO expressed optimism and even mentioned the possibility of a takeover. The question for investors: Is now the right time to buy?
