Swinging Up and Down – Will 2026 Bring More Record Highs? Rheinmetall, TKMS, Kobo Resources, and Hensoldt
The conflict in the Middle East has intensified once again. Efforts to reach a lasting agreement have so far failed, and a ceasefire based on a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) proved short-lived. Just days after it was announced, reports of renewed attacks on ships in the Strait of Hormuz and on critical energy infrastructure in the Gulf region have once again heightened geopolitical tensions. For oil prices, this is a bullish factor; for the stock market, it means yet another period of heightened volatility with sharp initial losses followed by recovery rallies. Yesterday, Germany's DAX 40 index climbed back above the key 25,000 mark, while defence stocks that had previously come under pressure moved back into the spotlight. At the same time, gold and silver prices weakened, possibly reflecting renewed liquidity pressures in global financial markets. The evolving market dynamics warrant a closer look.

Technical Analysis in Focus: Opportunities at Infineon, Volatus Aerospace, and Meta?
Summer is typically a quiet time on the stock markets. Even though quarterly earnings are released in many sectors starting in July, too many investors are already on their summer break. But this year, the markets are proving to be extremely volatile. Across many sectors, including semiconductors, hyperscalers, auto stocks, and sports companies, we are seeing sharp daily swings in either direction. On top of that, the war is returning not only to the Persian Gulf but also to the trading floor. This high volatility calls for technical analysis. That is why we are taking a look today at the stocks of Infineon, Volatus Aerospace, and Meta.

Zero-Emission Commercial Vehicles in 2026: Why Daimler Truck, Pure One, and Plug Power Are Benefiting from the Logistics Revolution
Since July 2025, the EU has mandated a gradual decarbonization of heavy-duty transportation, and the logistics industry is grappling with the right technology. Batteries or hydrogen? The answer is: both. The complexity of long-haul transport requires a mix of propulsion systems and a robust infrastructure. While batteries excel in short-distance travel, hydrogen offers the potential for heavy loads and fast refueling. Three key players exemplify this transformation: the vehicle giant Daimler Truck, the cleantech specialist Pure One, and the infrastructure pioneer Plug Power.

Gold Amid Crises and War: Is Lahontan Gold the Answer to Trump's NATO Upheaval? Breakout Ahead?
The world is in a state of heightened tension. The grinding war in Iran has reached its 100th day, further disrupting already fragile global energy markets. At the same time, political tensions are escalating at the NATO summit in Ankara, Türkiye, where US President Donald Trump is once again forcefully demanding greater financial contributions from European allies. During the summit, Trump has also ordered additional military strikes in the Middle East, further rattling investor sentiment. Even the devastating war in Ukraine has, to some extent, been overshadowed by the broader geopolitical turmoil. Investor uncertainty is rising sharply, and risk premiums—including higher oil prices—are climbing across global markets. In times of such extreme uncertainty, investors are looking for reliable ways to protect their portfolios. Gold has once again moved into the spotlight as a traditional safe-haven asset and an important diversifier during periods of geopolitical and economic stress. Against this backdrop, junior gold companies are also attracting renewed attention. One company that is increasingly standing out is Lahontan Gold. The Nevada-focused explorer is emerging as an interesting company to watch, backed by attractive projects, a well-funded balance sheet, and steady operational progress. If the favourable environment for gold persists, the company could offer investors exposure to a sector that has historically benefited from periods of heightened uncertainty.

Immediate Cash Flow: Desert Gold Is Making the Big Leap and Barrick Mining and B2Gold Continue to Bet on Mali
When people think of West Africa, geopolitical unrest or rugged terrain often comes to mind. Yet right here, in the deep geological layers of the famous Senegal-Mali Shear Zone, a lot is happening for the gold market. Following a period of profound political tensions and a sweeping overhaul of its laws, Mali is experiencing an unprecedented resurgence as a mining destination. The operating environment for international resource companies is shifting away from unpredictable confrontation, toward stable cooperation and increased domestic value creation. This is attracting powerful corporations and savvy investors alike, as the raw material buried beneath the desert dust promises stable returns amid growing global uncertainty. Mali is transforming from a crisis hotspot into a hotspot for investors looking to place a bold bet on the most precious of all metals. We present a particularly attractive opportunity and shed light on the market.

New and old AI winners! After a 1,000% gain with Siemens Energy, 2G Energy has taken off! Could Zefiro Methane be next?
The AI hype has produced winners across the entire value chain. Siemens Energy is among the German high-flyers. Just a few years ago, there were rumours of bankruptcy. Since then, the stock has surged by more than 1,000%. Analysts foresee further growth, but the valuation leaves no room for operational missteps. Another hidden gem among the AI winners is Zefiro Methane. The Canadian company specializes in identifying, remediating, and permanently plugging abandoned oil and gas wells. The market in the US is massive even without the AI boom. And the land needed for building data centers and energy infrastructure is further fueling demand. 2G Energy has shown just how quickly a stock can surge on the back of the AI boom. The share price doubled within just a few months, leaving the valuation far less compelling than before. Zefiro Methane, by comparison, still trades at a significantly lower valuation.

Three Stocks for a Strategic Portfolio? Samsung, Rock Tech Lithium, and SpaceX
This week saw a significant warning sign on global stock markets. In the Persian Gulf, the warring parties are once again exchanging fire. The price of oil rose, temporarily halting its downward trend. Meanwhile, some surprising developments are also unfolding in South Korea. The Kospi, the country's leading index, which is heavily weighted toward semiconductor stocks, is showing enormous volatility. Trading halts are occurring almost daily because share prices are moving too sharply up or down. And on Wall Street, volatility in the chip sector has recently increased, too. Share prices have seen significant profit-taking. Meanwhile, the space exploration stock SpaceX is becoming Wall Street's darling. Today, we take a look at the stocks of Samsung Electronics, Rock Tech Lithium, and SpaceX.

Volatus Aerospace, TKMS, and Rheinmetall: Three Stocks for the Next Defence Boom
Financial markets had partly priced in a lasting ceasefire in the Persian Gulf, but the conflict has flared up again. U.S. President Donald Trump recently declared the ceasefire with Iran to be over. The global defence boom is far from running out of steam. On the contrary, it continues to gather momentum while constantly shifting its focus. After ammunition, tanks, air defence systems and drones, maritime defence is once again moving into the spotlight. Around the recent NATO summit in Ankara, for example, Canada announced multi-billion-dollar submarine plans involving thyssenkrupp Marine Systems (TKMS). At the same time, rising defence spending across Europe and the technological race in counter-drone capabilities underline the continuing need for military investment. Against this backdrop, investors may find new opportunities—from the more speculative Volatus Aerospace to the more established defence names TKMS and Rheinmetall.
