Defence Boom Meets Critical Metals: Rheinmetall, Renk, Globex Mining and Hensoldt in Focus
The geopolitical turning point is bringing two sectors to the forefront: defence and critical metals. One cannot exist without the other! Consequently, this fateful alliance has triggered an unprecedented supercycle in the financial markets that extends far beyond the traditional high-tech and defence conglomerates. European defence heavyweights such as Rheinmetall, Renk, and sensor specialist Hensoldt are enjoying historic order backlogs and benefiting from government rearmament programs worth billions. This is now bringing the fundamental basis of this boom sharply into focus for investors. After all, producing defence systems of all kinds depends entirely on a secure supply of strategic and critical metals. However, massive demand for military hardware is clashing with global supply chains under extreme strain from raw material shortages and the accelerating subsidy race in the West. This is where exploration and licensing companies like Globex Mining come into their own—they possess a diversified portfolio of strategic properties in politically stable regions and secure the foundations of industrial independence. Since no modern air defence system or military microchip network can exist without copper, silver, nickel, or rare earth elements, the mining and defence technology sectors are inextricably linked on the stock market. For forward-thinking investors, this symbiosis offers rare leverage.

Between a Breach of Trust, a Defence Boom and a Recovery – innoscripta, Suedzucker and Volatus Aerospace
Three completely different trends are currently converging in the markets. Government bond yields have risen sharply, inflation continues to climb, and the major stock indices have been consolidating in recent weeks. Meanwhile, one company is struggling to regain trust following regulatory searches, another group is benefiting from growing demand for drone technology within the NATO sphere, while an established industrial stock is coming under selling pressure despite an improved outlook. These cases illustrate just how strongly share prices can react to legal uncertainty, geopolitical trends, operational progress and inflated expectations.

ArcelorMittal, Strategic Resources, Cleveland-Cliffs – Billions for the Steel of the Future
A new steel industry is emerging in North America. Mesabi Metallics, backed by the Essar Group, plans to invest USD 18 billion in total. Approximately USD 3 billion will go toward an iron ore mine and pellet plant in Minnesota, with another USD 15 billion earmarked for a new steel complex in Iowa. The goal is a fully American supply chain, from ore to finished steel. At the heart of this are high-quality DR pellets, which will be used to produce steel via direct reduction and electric arc furnaces. For developers of such projects, this sends a strong signal, as the transformation of the steel industry begins right at the raw material stage.

Bucking the Market Trend: Opportunities at Mercedes, First Hydrogen and Barrick Mining
The Nasdaq 100 hit a new all-time high last week. The tech index is driven primarily by AI stocks, leading to astonishing valuations. For example, the combined value of all publicly traded German stocks currently amounts to about 52% of the market capitalization of AI champion Nvidia, as one analyst calculated. However, some sectors are currently underperforming. For investors who like to take a contrarian approach, this presents opportunities—for example, in the automotive and gold sectors or in hydrogen stocks. That is why today we are taking a look at the stocks of Mercedes, First Hydrogen and Barrick Mining.

Nordex Facing Challenges? Power Metallic Mines and a Potential 50% Copper Rally! Verbio's Turnaround!
Could copper be heading for a 50% rally? Experts believe the metal could reach USD 22,000 per tonne as early as 2027, up from less than USD 15,000 today. Developments in China could help drive this move. A new copper rally could provide exactly the catalyst needed to break Power Metallic Mines out of its sideways trading range. The company's world-class project is taking shape, and analysts see significant upside potential. Verbio is also receiving "Buy" recommendations as the company prepares for a new phase of growth. Despite its growth prospects, however, the stock continues to struggle. And what about Nordex? The company has recently delivered its usual stream of positive news, most recently announcing new orders in Austria and Southern Europe. However, according to Deutsche Bank, investors speculating on an upward revision to the annual forecast could be disappointed.

Portfolio Booster Wanted? Deutz, TKMS and DRC Gold – Three Stocks With Potential
The stock markets are buzzing, and many investors are already fearing early signs of a crash—but we are not there yet, because investors are always looking for new opportunities. Sometimes the best opportunities are hiding in plain sight; sometimes, you have to dig deeper. Today, we have done exactly that and identified three stocks worth a closer look. First up is Deutz, which is reinventing itself and pushing into alternative drive technologies. Next, we dive into TKMS, where defence-sector spending is fueling fresh market interest and driving sharp share price moves. Finally, DRC Gold offers exposure to a gold exploration story that could be developing into something much bigger beneath the radar of the major mining companies. Three very different companies, three distinct market stories — and potentially three ways to give a portfolio fresh momentum. The key, as always, is timing.

Energy Shortages Caused by AI: Kinder Morgan, Standard Uranium and GE Vernova Could Benefit
The AI boom, and its impact on energy demand, has long since reached Germany. In Frankfurt, home to the DE-CIX hub, data centres now account for a significant share of the city's peak power demand. Elsewhere, however, the figures are even more extreme. Consequently, access to energy is currently the bottleneck in the expansion of AI data centres. In the United States, the epicentre of AI expansion, AI data centres already account for more than 4.5% of total US electricity consumption. This is putting the entire power grid to the test. And this share is expected to rise to over 8% by 2030. And who knows whether these estimates from the International Energy Agency (IEA) are not actually too low. After all, a single AI query consumes about ten times as much energy as a normal internet search. Consequently, energy prices, as well as energy providers and their supply chains, should benefit from this trend. That is why we are looking at the stocks of Kinder Morgan, Standard Uranium and GE Vernova today.

RTX, Almonty Industries, Elmet Group – This Is Fundamental for the West
Tungsten is increasingly becoming a strategic raw material in the new arms race. Missiles, engines, high-temperature alloys, and many other applications rely on this extremely hard, heat-resistant metal. At the same time, China dominates large parts of the global supply chain. For the US and its allies, an independent supply is therefore increasingly becoming a matter of national security. Billions are flowing into new defense production capacities, strategic stockpiles, and Western raw material projects. This opens a market for producers outside China, with significance that extends far beyond traditional commodity cycles.

The Race in Quantum Computing, Energy and Gold: D-Wave Quantum, 2G Energy and Lahontan Gold in Focus
The AI race is electrifying the stock market. Energy is a crucial factor. 2G Energy is increasingly benefiting from this trend. Order intake in the third quarter of 2026 has soared. A key driver is a new major order for 275 MW from the data centre industry, which exceeds 2G's total production for fiscal year 2025. While the gold price continues to take a breather at high levels, Lahontan Gold is in the home stretch toward the planned start of gold production next year. An exciting update was provided in a recent interview. The resource is growing and still has further upside potential. The mine is to be financed largely with debt, while the high gold price is expected to enable rapid repayment. Lahontan shares should benefit from this. Quantum stocks are currently out of the spotlight. In the race for industry leadership, however, the finish line appears to be shifting. D-Wave Quantum's latest announcement shows the company is among the frontrunners.

Bayer, MustGrow Biologics, BASF: From Yesterday's Crop Protection to Tomorrow's Biologicals
Created and Published on Behalf of MustGrow Biologics Corp.
Major agricultural companies are reshaping their businesses and increasingly looking to small specialists. On September 2, Bayer presented its goals for the agricultural business through 2029 to investors. The Leverkusen-based company aims to generate more than EUR 3 billion in free operating cash flow by then and to assume a leading global role in biologicals through partnerships. That could work in the favor of small developers like MustGrow Biologics. On September 14, BASF commissioned four banks to prepare for a potential initial public offering (IPO) of its agricultural division, which generated EUR 9.6 billion in revenue in 2025. We therefore take a closer look at Bayer, MustGrow Biologics and BASF.
