The hunt for the cancer pill from BioNTech & Co.: Why Eli Lilly's billion-dollar bet is a wake-up call for Vidac Pharma
It is one of the oldest rules in the biotech sector: when the big pharmaceutical companies can no longer grow on their own, they open their coffers. The latest billion-dollar deal between US giant Eli Lilly and Dresden-based startup Seamless Therapeutics is more than just a headline – it is a wake-up call for the entire industry. Eli Lilly, now one of the most valuable companies in the world, is desperately seeking innovations to secure its pipeline beyond its booming weight-loss injections. This hunger for new mechanisms of action inevitably focuses attention on small, specialized companies researching revolutionary approaches. In this environment, Vidac Pharma is becoming the focus of strategic investors. The Company is working on an approach that is as elegant as it is radical: it aims to starve cancer rather than poison it by manipulating its metabolism. While Eli Lilly and BioNTech are spreading their billions across a wide range of areas, Vidac is delivering precisely the kind of specialized "deep science" that is often lacking in the pipelines of the big players.

Business is booming, stocks are booming: Almonty Industries, Rheinmetall, and TKMS in focus
Shares in commodity producers and defense companies are booming. Geopolitical conditions and structural long-term demand trends form the basis for a sustained positive climate. Almonty Industries stands out in particular as a leading global producer of the critical raw material tungsten. Demand from the defense, aerospace, high-tech and other strategic industries is growing massively worldwide, especially in the United States. The price of tungsten rose by over 160% last year and continues its upward trend this year.

Antimony: Critical raw material becomes a geopolitical factor – Antimony Resources poised for revaluation
Antimony Resources is quietly emerging as a raw materials story with enormous strategic impact. The critical raw material antimony is relevant to security, indispensable to industry, and too unevenly distributed globally. In an environment where supply chains are politicized and critical raw materials are becoming geopolitical weapons, the Company is set to increasingly come into focus with Bald Hill, the largest antimony project in North America. Investors who recognize the trend early on are securing a place at the beginning of a highly exciting and lucrative investment story.

Flight to substance: How Chevron, Hapag-Lloyd, and RE Royalties are weatherproofing portfolios
Many investors are currently experiencing a vague sense of unease when they look at their portfolios. On paper, the returns of recent years look fantastic, driven by an unprecedented boom in artificial intelligence (AI). But when taking a closer look, one can see the cluster risk: The MSCI World, once synonymous with broad diversification, is now effectively a technology fund. Giants such as NVIDIA, Apple, and Microsoft dominate the indices to such an extent that a correction in the tech sector would drag down the entire portfolio. In this phase of market saturation, with valuations running high and global politics seeming more unpredictable than ever, investors are returning to an old virtue: cash flow. Dividend stocks are back in vogue – not as a boring addition, but as an indispensable anchor. We analyse three companies that promise stability in this environment: the indestructible energy giant Chevron, the logistics group Hapag-Lloyd, and the Canadian energy specialist RE Royalties, which has established a particularly smart model.

Iran conflict and oil prices at USD 100? Caution advised for Nel ASA, A.H.T. Syngas, and Plug Power
The stock markets are in absolute stress mode! The US dollar has been depreciating for days, silver, gold, and copper are skyrocketing, and yesterday oil also started to rise. The threatening gestures from Washington are slowly making it clear that the number of geopolitical conflicts could even expand to include Iran in the short term. The Pentagon has sent an armada of ships to the Persian Gulf. Just another Donald show? Maybe, but maybe not! On platform X, he makes it unmistakably clear that an intervention in Iran's sovereignty could be imminent at any time. This means absolute "panic mode" for the commodity markets, as Iran produces over 4 million barrels of oil per day, and Western industries fear for their supply chains. We take a look at a few scenarios that are related to this situation in extended mode.

The witch dance continues! Another 100% with TKMS, DroneShield, Pasinex, or the new CSG?
The stock markets are extremely volatile, so it is time to take a closer look at some of the key players. Many investors are now focusing on a scenario of ongoing war. Hardly anyone expects real peace to be achieved, as a recent survey shows: 72% of those surveyed do not expect any of the existing trouble spots to enter a state of peace in 2026. This means that public skepticism is higher than the current "super summit talks" between the superpowers around the globe would suggest. In addition to defense stocks, commodity stocks also remain in a state of constant battle. Scarce metals appear to be becoming even scarcer, judging by the spot price. Anyone looking at the precarious situation in Europe should take a closer look at Pasinex Resources' zinc project. Here are a few tips on how to generate a 100% return.

Puma takeover is becoming more concrete! Should investors buy Evotec and Silver Viper shares next?
Takeover speculation has been swirling around Puma for some time. Now it has become more tangible: Anta has secured a 29% stake in the German sporting goods group, paying EUR 35 per share. However, the euphoria on the stock market is limited. Are there better opportunities for investors to profit from takeover speculation? One candidate in the hot silver market is Silver Viper. The Company is pushing ahead with exciting projects in Mexico. Its recent capital increase met with strong demand, and a financially powerful potential buyer already has a foot in the door. And what about Evotec? The perennial takeover candidate is still not gaining momentum. That said, the biotech company is benefiting from the sale of one of its own holdings, which is expected to bring in around USD 160 million.

In the eye of the commodities storm: How Aspermont, with its 190-year history, is becoming the data center of the mining industry
Gold is breaking records, copper is driving the energy transition, and critical raw materials such as rare earths are becoming a geopolitical currency. While investors are considering direct commodity investments, a company that has transformed itself into an indispensable architect of this new era is operating in the background: Aspermont. Once a traditional specialist publisher, the Company has quietly evolved into a data-driven control center for global mining. In a market characterized by resource nationalism and supply chain stress, reliable information is the most valuable commodity. Aspermont delivers just that, not as a cyclical player, but as a provider of critical infrastructure for decision-making. This transformation is complete, financially sound, and meets with a perfect environment.
