Shovels for the Commodity boom: Aspermont wins Rio Tinto as a customer with AI solution - Macquarie Group and family offices also on board
Gold is more expensive than ever! Critical metals such as tungsten, rare earths and lithium are making a spectacular comeback – in some cases, even the government is investing in producers. And in South America, Teck Resources and Anglo American are merging. All these events show that the commodities market is in flux like never before. Since US Vice President JD Vance's announcement at the Munich Security Conference last February, it has become clear that the old world order is over. New power blocs are emerging, and economies such as the EU and Canada must become independent. This can only be achieved with raw materials. One company that provides mining companies and raw material investors with a powerful tool in this market phase published a decisive corporate announcement a few weeks ago.

In peace and war – Defense stocks poised for the next leap: Volatus Aerospace, thyssenkrupp, DroneShield and Rheinmetall
Europe's defense industry is facing an unprecedented wave of investment. The combination of long-term secure financing, political resolve, and technological modernization is creating an attractive environment for providers of defense systems, sensor, and AI solutions. Analysts expect average growth rates of 5 to 10%, which will see the market expand from around EUR 125 billion to approximately EUR 170 billion by 2030. The key drivers are the EU's massive investment offensives, which aim to mobilize up to EUR 800 billion through the new SAFE financial instrument. This is a historic turning point for rearmament - especially after 25 years of disarmament. The package includes EUR 150 billion in loans for the joint procurement of high-tech systems such as drones, air defense, and artillery. Which stocks stand to benefit from this scenario?

German-Canadian raw materials alliance: Graphano Energy, Volkswagen, Magna International
February 1, 2025, came as a shock to many Canadians. On that day, US President Donald Trump imposed tariffs on Canada and repeatedly suggested the country could become a US state. In response to these trade barriers, Canada sought to reduce its dependence on the US. An obvious partner is the EU. The two economies already entered into a strategic raw materials partnership in 2021. In this article, we explore the prospects for joint supply chains for electric vehicle batteries and highlight which companies stand to benefit.

Evotec downgraded! Out of Hensoldt? Into Pure Hydrogen?
Out of Hensoldt and into Rheinmetall? That is what analysts are suggesting—at least indirectly. Valuation is becoming a headache. How do other experts view the share's performance? In contrast, an exciting buying opportunity seems to be developing at Pure Hydrogen. With their openness to technology, the Australian company is clearly striking the right chord with customers. Once again, they have managed to win over a client in the US – the world's largest commercial vehicle market. Heavy commercial vehicles with fuel cell drives are scheduled for delivery before the end of this year. The stock is unlikely to remain this cheap for long. At Evotec, on the other hand, the MDAX downgrade is weighing heavily, with the stock trading close to its multi-year low. Analysts see almost 100% upside potential, but investors are not responding.

Critical raw material supply: Rheinmetall's risk, Almonty Industries' opportunity, and Xiaomi's trump card
One strategic metal dominates the plans of military and tech companies: tungsten. Indispensable for high technology, from precision ammunition to powerful electric car motors, its supply is becoming a geopolitical issue. Western nations are fighting for supply independence, catapulting a previously overlooked mining operator into a unique position. This development reveals drastic dependencies and creates clear winners. Three companies exemplify this new reality: Rheinmetall, Almonty Industries, and Xiaomi.

Hydrogen – New paths through the funding jungle: ITM Power, NEL, First Hydrogen
Europe has ambitious goals for the hydrogen economy, but its implementation is often hampered by complex regulations and bureaucratic funding processes. "We have ambitious goals in Europe, but implementation is stalling because we are getting lost in the details of the rules. Instead of triggering investment, we are creating complexity," criticizes Jorgo Chatzimarkakis from the Hydrogen Europe association in an interview with Telepolis. Many projects are still on hold due to unclear approvals or subsidy details. While large energy corporations can navigate the bureaucratic jungle, agile specialists are looking for niche opportunities. We shed light on the business models of NEL, ITM Power, and First Hydrogen.

Will Trump's tariffs be stopped by the courts? Gold and silver on the rise – Deutz, Desert Gold, Renk, and Hensoldt in focus
A US appeals court has declared most of Trump's tariffs unlawful under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) of 1977. This law allows the president to take economic measures against foreign countries in the event of a declared national emergency. However, no such national emergency currently exists. Instead, the US economy is growing at a moderate pace, while benefiting from the energy supply emergencies in Europe and further defense support for Ukraine. The US is no longer simply giving these goods away; instead, it now provides loans or sells them to allied countries. This creates significant uncertainty in the markets, which in turn is fueling defense stocks as well as gold and silver. New highs were reached at USD 3,640 for gold and USD 41.5 for silver. Where do the opportunities lie for investors?

The next wave is coming! NetraMark and BioNTech are on the winning track - Can Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly follow suit?
Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming the development of new drugs by analyzing complex data at lightning speed and making clinical trials more efficient. AI technologies enable candidates to be selected more specifically for research projects and therapeutic successes to be predicted with greater precision. Companies such as NetraMark and BioNTech have already successfully used these tools, with the Mainz-based company currently even achieving breakthroughs in oncology. Meanwhile, Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly, once stars of the obesity market, are now seen as "fallen angels". Will they manage to turn things around? Investors with foresight now have new opportunities in rapidly growing billion-dollar markets. A long-awaited interest rate cut in the US could be the spark the sector needs! Selection is now key!

Gold and defense stocks are unstoppable! Barrick Mining, Deutz, Dryden Gold
Gold and defense stocks are currently dominating the markets. The price of gold has reached a new record high of over USD 3,600 per troy ounce, and experts are forecasting prices of up to USD 5,000. Barrick Mining is finally benefiting from this. The investor favorite has jumped and gained 50%. Newmont has performed even better. Investors are now betting on successful explorers like Dryden Gold. The Canadians are reporting strong drilling results, and analysts see considerable potential. The latest "gap drilling" also highlights that the Gold Rock project could develop into a large-volume deposit. Only defense stocks can almost keep up with the performance of gold. Deutz surprised investors with a takeover in the drone sector and is trading at its highest level since 2007. Analysts praise the move, and the chances of inclusion in the MDAX are increasing.
