High Energy Prices: How Samsung SDI, dynaCERT, and First Solar Stand to Benefit!
On Wednesday, the US inflation figures for May were released. At 4.2%, the reading came in exactly in line with market expectations, and the individual sector data were also broadly consistent with forecasts. Nevertheless, this initially triggered a sell-off in the stock market. It appears that some investors have only now realized that the conflict in the Gulf has driven up energy prices and, consequently, the prices of many other goods and services. Given the renewed US escalation in the Middle East, oil, gas, kerosene, and fertilizer prices appear set to remain at elevated levels for an extended period. For companies whose products become more competitive as energy prices rise, however, these conditions are favourable. That is why we are taking a closer look at the shares of Samsung SDI, dynaCERT, and First Solar.

Geostrategic Raw Materials Alliance: Export Controls Hit SpaceX and Rheinmetall – Wall Street Bets on Almonty
Trade barriers, reduced mining quotas, and a US legal import ban on certain critical metals set to take effect in 2027—the West's traditional raw materials supply chains are under pressure. At the heart of the supply bottleneck is tungsten, which, due to its melting point of 3,422 °C, is irreplaceable for modern kinetic military applications and high-temperature-resistant alloys in the aerospace sector. Since alternative, non-Chinese production capacities have so far accounted for less than 10% of global production volume, Western technology companies face a very real supply crisis. Tungsten heavyweight Almonty Industries is stepping into this supply vacuum and, thanks to new production capacities, is emerging as a key player and de facto monopolist.

Nel ASA Buys Its Way Out, Vestas Wind Keeps Winning Orders, and RE Royalties Nears a Technical Breakout!
The renewable energy market currently resembles a stormy ocean. Of course, this is partly due to global conflicts that are affecting oil prices. Since the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, oil prices have been on a rollercoaster ride. As a result, renewable energy has returned to the spotlight, and hydrogen stocks, for example, have experienced something of a second wind. However, while disappointment is once again setting in for some major players, activity continues to build beneath the surface among smaller companies. This mixed picture is reflected in the recent developments of the three stocks we are following. We take a look at a Danish wind turbine manufacturer that is practically being showered with new orders, yet continues to be punished by the stock market. We also examine a Norwegian hydrogen pioneer struggling with costly legacy issues and a shrinking project pipeline. Away from the headlines, a Canadian financier of green energy projects presents a particularly interesting case. Here, fundamental shifts and an intriguing chart setup suggest that a breakout could be imminent. Read on to find out what is currently driving these stocks and where investors may find performance opportunities for their portfolios.

The Biotech and Life Sciences Boom: Evotec, BioNxt Solutions, and Merck – Which Is Worth Investing In?
The life sciences and pharmaceutical industry is undergoing a structural transformation. Value creation is no longer driven by individual blockbuster drugs, but rather by platform technologies, patent portfolios, and strategic deals. This new capital market logic rewards companies with protectable intellectual property and smart licensing agreements—not just pure pipeline developers. For private investors, this creates high-yield niches with reduced regulatory risks. The key question remains: who controls the levers in the innovation ecosystem? Those who recognize this structure early can benefit disproportionately. Today we focus on Evotec, BioNxt Solutions, and Merck.

Gold Sector in M&A Frenzy: Dwindling Reserves Drive B2Gold and Orezone – Hidden Gem: Desert Gold
Dwindling mineral reserves in low-risk regions, stagnating discovery rates, and increasingly complex permitting processes—the situation in the gold mining sector is forcing leading producers to act. Since developing new large-scale greenfield projects is associated with sharply rising costs, industry giants are increasingly shifting their focus to acquiring projects already at an advanced stage. According to surveys by the industry portal MiningBeacon, the gold sector accounted for over 40% of the total mining transaction volume in the first five months of 2026 alone, amounting to deals worth USD 41 billion. West African shear trends and established mining regions are therefore becoming target areas for resource-hungry corporations that need to utilize their processing capacities to full capacity.

Market Shock and Plunge for Ballard Power and ITM Power! Does HPQ Silicon Offer a Better Opportunity Following New Deals?
Stocks in the technology sector—and particularly those in the hydrogen industry—are currently experiencing wild swings. Even when there is positive news or a successful annual shareholder meeting, massive profit-taking often sends prices plummeting afterward. Prominent examples of this are the current developments at industry giants ITM Power and Ballard Power. Both have recently suffered steep price losses following their strong rallies. But while these two stocks are currently "suffering" under selling pressure, an exciting technology stock is positioning itself in the second tier. HPQ Silicon is drawing attention with new partnerships in Asia and at European defence trade shows. From a technical chart perspective, it is currently well supported on the downside by a horizontal support zone. Could HPQ perhaps even outperform Ballard and ITM in the coming weeks? We take a close look at the opportunities and developments of these three companies.

AMD, American Atomics & Super Micro Computer: How to Capitalize on the Multi-Billion-Dollar AI Infrastructure Trend
Artificial intelligence requires chips and electricity. Data centers already consume as much energy as all of Japan, and demand is surging. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), global electricity consumption by these centers could rise to over 945 terawatt-hours in 2026. The problem is that renewable energy sources do not provide a constant base load. The solution is nuclear power. Tech giants like Google have long been relying on old nuclear reactors and mini-reactors. For investors, this creates a multi-billion-dollar infrastructure supercycle. Three companies are addressing it from different angles: AMD with high-performance AI accelerators, American Atomics with the critical uranium supply chain, and Super Micro Computer with highly efficient, liquid-cooled server technology.

Autonomous Warfare: AeroVironment and Palantir Challenged – Analysts Give Volatus Aerospace the Thumbs-Up
The war on the front lines in Ukraine has changed significantly. Large-scale coordinated drone swarms are becoming increasingly rare, as local jammers block bandwidth and slow down Starlink. The result: drones no longer function or make errors. Ukraine's defence strategy is thus forcing a shift from purely cloud-based systems to decentralized architectures with local computing power directly in the drone. Defence contractors and the military must implement these innovations quickly and remain agile. We explain which companies are perfectly positioned for this.

Copper Super Cycle: Trouble for Nordex? Freeport-McMoRan, Glencore, and Power Metallic Mines benefit!
Copper is typically considered a leading economic indicator. However, the supercycle is turning that rule on its head. While the global economy is faltering, experts predict copper prices will rise to USD 15,000. There are even warnings of a broader "super-squeeze" if the Strait of Hormuz remains closed. Freeport-McMoRan and Glencore are benefiting from the copper rally. Both of these core investments have already performed well. That makes it worth taking a look at the explorers. And within this group, Power Metallic Mines stands out positively. Analysts see nearly 200% upside potential. At a recent investor conference, management made a strong impression. The first resource estimate is set to be published as early as July. Additional catalysts include a PEA (Preliminary Economic Assessment) and a NASDAQ listing, which are already in the pipeline. Siemens, Siemens Energy, and Nordex are among the companies that could face medium-term challenges due to high copper prices in Germany. Nordex shares have fallen sharply recently, although a new order provided positive momentum yesterday.

Gold, Silver, Defence, AI, or the Nasdaq? SpaceX Heads for the US Indices – Defying Weakness with Lahontan Gold
A remarkable phenomenon is currently unfolding in the markets: virtually everything is weakening. From gold to silver, from high-tech to low-tech, whether AI or hydrogen—every sector is undergoing a correction. So far, however, the pullback remains modest when measured against the extraordinary gains achieved over the past 14 months following the tariff-driven sell-off triggered by Donald Trump. During that period, the Nasdaq effectively doubled. Traders know that a volatile interim low will now be reached, particularly over the summer, before the markets look forward to 2027 with renewed hope. This period needs to be bridged, and there may also be a need for hedging. Historically, gold has served this role well, often gaining value when other asset classes came under pressure. Yet gold itself has been one of the best-performing asset classes over the past two years, leading to some profit-taking here as well. Whether the S&P 500 can absorb additional heavyweights such as SpaceX, OpenAI, and Databricks following its historic rally remains to be seen. A fast-track inclusion of SpaceX into the S&P indices was reportedly rejected by S&P Dow Jones, while NASDAQ, Russell, and MSCI are set to list it within a few trading days. This should be exciting! Where are the tangible opportunities for investors?
