Frequentis, Parrot, and Volatus Aerospace under the microscope: A hidden gem from Canada is reshuffling the deck
Drones have long been more than just a technological trend - they have become a geopolitical factor, and the stock market is reacting accordingly. While Austrian security specialist Frequentis, valued at billions, is already firmly in the sights of institutional investors, French micro-drone pioneer Parrot and Canadian full-service provider Volatus Aerospace are engaged in an exciting race for investor favor. Volatus, previously little known in Germany, has transformed itself from a restructuring case to a growth star in a remarkably short time with government backing, a promising NATO contract, and inclusion in the prestigious "TSX Venture 50" list. Parrot has apparently reached the break-even point, but is leaving investors in the dark until the end of March. Those who make the right choice now could benefit from one of the most exciting investment themes of the decade – but the differences between the three candidates are greater than they appear at first glance.

Panasonic, Samsung SDI, and NEO Battery Materials: Three paths into the battery age
Whether it is due to failures on the part of the Western automotive industry or China's locational advantages, Beijing dominates the global battery market and openly uses this power as a geopolitical lever. Since November 2025, drastically tightened export regulations have been in place for lithium batteries, graphite anode materials, and related equipment. Production machinery and technologies are also affected. This is a wake-up call for Western industry - and an opportunity for investors: Non-Chinese battery manufacturers are increasingly coming into focus on the stock market, whether they are established players such as Panasonic and Samsung SDI or newcomers such as NEO Battery Materials.

The arms race is on: Why Rheinmetall, Antimony Resources, and Leidos are needed!
War in Ukraine, troop buildup in the Persian Gulf: Politicians currently seem to be reverting to their role as warlords. The conflict in Ukraine alone has now lasted more than four years and shows how modern warfare works. It is important to control the necessary raw materials, data, and airspace. Since then, an arms race has begun. The US has urged its NATO partners to increase their defense spending, and most countries have followed suit. Within this framework, Germany has launched a EUR 500 billion investment program, which will benefit the German arms industry, among others. US President Donald Trump has announced a military budget of USD 1 trillion – for one year, mind you! But global rival China is not to be outdone, increasing its military spending by double-digit percentages every year. While the US primarily enjoys technological supremacy, China dominates the raw materials market. This explosive constellation offers investors opportunities on the stock market.

New German hydrogen gem! Will A.H.T. Syngas eclipse the old favorites Plug Power and Nel ASA?
Is it time for a changing of the guard in the hydrogen sector? The old favorites Plug Power and Nel ASA have been falling short of expectations for years. Yet the benefits of hydrogen in the energy mix of the future are undisputed. A.H.T. Syngas is on its way to becoming the new hydrogen gem. The company produces synthetic natural gas substitutes from biogenic residues and, in the future, hydrogen as well. A.H.T. Syngas has recently achieved an important breakthrough. In addition, it is in the process of transforming itself from a pure plant manufacturer to an energy producer. The revaluation has begun, but is far from complete. Analysts see considerable upside potential.

Commodity investments: Why Globex Mining is the hidden gem next to Barrick Mining and MP Materials
The global economy is undergoing a fundamental shift from an era of free trade to an era of scarcity. Commodities are no longer mere trade goods, but instruments of national security and expressions of geopolitical power. The US government's announcement that it will create an exclusive commodity trading bloc demonstrates this. At the same time, the International Energy Agency (IEA) has heralded the age of electrification, in which demand for copper, rare earths, lithium, and antimony is rising to historic highs due to the expansion of global data centers for artificial intelligence and the decarbonization of industry. S&P Global forecasts a copper deficit of 10 million tons by 2040. China continues to control over 50% of refined copper production and dominates the supply of 19 out of 20 critical minerals. This concentration is forcing Western countries and investors to rethink their strategies. We present options that have received little attention so far.

AI: a billion-dollar opportunity! Secure your share of the pie now with Intel, American Atomics, and Super Micro Computer.
In 2026, artificial intelligence will have an unprecedented impact on the stock markets. What began as a purely technological phenomenon is transforming into a cross-sector megatrend fueled by record investments of over USD 450 billion. No longer just chip developers, but also suppliers of specific infrastructure and energy providers are becoming the secret winners of this expansion. This fundamental change is creating opportunities far beyond the usual suspects and leads us directly to three interesting companies: semiconductor veteran Intel, energy company American Atomics, and server specialist Super Micro Computer.

International Expansion as a Catalyst? RENK, CHAR Technologies, and SFC Energy enter new markets
CHAR Technologies is likely to achieve a breakthrough this year, both operationally and on the stock market. The company is now bringing its HTP technology for the production of biogas and biochar to Europe. Licensing reduces risks and conserves capital. The first industrial plant has already gone into operation in Canada. Its expansion is being planned, as are further plants in North America. RENK is also gaining momentum in the US. Analysts recently speculated that US business could surprise on the upside from 2028 onwards. New orders are already confirming this. And what about SFC Energy? Following the forecast adjustment last summer, the share is looking for new momentum. This may come from internationalization. However, analysts are not yet convinced.

MustGrow Biologics and its partnership with Bayer: Why the stock is only just getting started
Global agriculture is facing a paradox. It needs to feed more people, but with fewer chemical inputs. Worldwide, 460 pesticides are now banned or restricted across 162 countries. The era of synthetic active ingredients is coming to an end – but what comes next? A Canadian company believes it has found the answer. It grows in the field, is spicy and yellow: mustard. MustGrow Biologics has developed a technology that uses the natural defenses of the mustard plant to remediate soils and increase yields. What sounds like a niche idea could turn out to be one of the most exciting investments in the agricultural sector.

Securing raw materials in Europe: How Avrupa Minerals, Altius Minerals, and Elemental Royalty Corporation are organizing supply chains
The EU is looking for domestic sources of copper, zinc, and strategic metals to secure its industrial base. Recent analyses by the European Court of Auditors show a dependence on imports for 10 of 26 critical minerals needed for the energy transition and modern defense systems. Despite the Critical Raw Materials Act, which aims to increase domestic production to 10% of demand, auditors identify bottlenecks in the financing and practical implementation of the requirements. At the same time, consultancies such as McKinsey are forecasting a significant increase in demand for materials for the energy transition, with annual growth rates in the single-digit percentage range through 2035. In this environment, specialized players are positioning themselves to provide access to deposits and manage capital risks for investors. We present three companies with a focus on Avrupa Minerals.

Rheinmetall, First Hydrogen, BYD – Innovations put pressure on the competition
Record military spending, major orders worth billions, and structural rearmament are set to drive the European defense industry for years to come. At the same time, global energy demand is exploding. Modular nuclear reactors and green hydrogen are coming into focus as low-CO₂ base load solutions. And in the field of electromobility, Asian battery manufacturers are massively expanding their cost advantage. As a result, cell prices are falling, ranges are increasing, and Western competitors are coming under pressure. Three future-oriented industries – defense, clean energy, and battery technology – are facing a new wave of investment, but some of the first warning signs are appearing in the charts.
