Uranium, Quantum, or Hydrogen? Should you buy D-Wave, Plug Power, or American Atomics now?
Is the price of uranium about to jump above the USD 100 mark? Analysts believe this could happen as early as next year. After a mixed 2025, a significant upward trend is anticipated. In the US in particular, nuclear energy is increasingly seen as a key solution to the growing energy demand driven by the boom in data centers. One company set to benefit is American Atomics. In an interview, the head of this hidden gem describes the prospects. The hype surrounding Plug Power has faded again. Investors' hopes for a sustained upward trend have once again been dashed. Is an improvement on the horizon? And what are the prospects for high-flyer D-Wave Quantum? A recent study is giving the sector a boost.

Boom 2026 – Energy transition now! Which stocks are convincing in the long term? Power Metallic, Nordex, Siemens Energy, or JinkoSolar
The year is drawing to a close. Will next year see the losers of 2025 really take off? And even more interesting: can the blockbuster stocks from the artificial intelligence, high-tech, big data, and raw materials sectors repeat their historic returns? We think it is wise to expect somewhat lower returns. But here, too, everyone could be wrong. Tesla provides one example. Elon Musk's visionary company is selling fewer and fewer vehicles, and competition is growing. However, with topics such as robotics and autonomous driving, the dazzling founder always has new aces up his sleeve, and the stock keeps rising. We can provide some assistance in the energy sector, but there are also clear overvaluations here.

Car wash as a source of revenue: How WashTec combines the business models of Dover and Ecolab
Car washing has traditionally been considered a conservative business - steel, brushes, and water, with no major disruptions, or so people believe. But behind the scenes, a change is taking place that requires a reassessment of the industry. WashTec, the global market leader for car washes based in Augsburg, Germany, is currently shedding its role as a pure machine manufacturer and transforming itself into an integrated high-tech service provider. To understand the potential of this metamorphosis, it is worth looking across the Atlantic. While US industrial giant Dover Corporation demonstrates how lucrative the global scaling of hardware can be, Ecolab provides the blueprint for stable, recurring revenues through chemistry and process optimization. WashTec now combines precisely these strengths - machinery, chemistry, digitalization, and service - under one roof, positioning itself for investors as the industry's overall technological optimizer. We take a look behind the scenes.

The Next Big Thing! US banks have their sights set on the trillion-dollar tokenization market – pioneer Finexity in pole position! Commerzbank and Deutsche Bank left behind?
Larry Fink, CEO of BlackRock, the world's largest asset manager, made a powerful and significant statement in which he declared tokenization to be the "next generation of markets." Furthermore, the entry of the largest US bank, JPMorgan, into this area highlights its great potential. With the help of tokenization, real-world assets (RWA) are divided into digital tokens and mapped on a blockchain in a legally secure manner. According to the consulting firm Boston Consulting Group, the RWA market will grow to an incredible USD 19 trillion by 2033. Private markets such as real estate, private equity, and renewable energy are an exciting and rapidly growing sub-sector. Tokenization now makes it possible to trade previously non-fungible assets. This is where German pioneer Finexity comes in, addressing a market worth billions.

Halo effect in Côte d'Ivoire: How Kobo Resources is maturing into the next big gold story in the shadow of Perseus and the Lundin Group
In the world of geologists and commodity prospectors, there is an unwritten law: the best finds are made in the shadow of existing world-class mines. Geology knows no license boundaries, and where millions of ounces of gold are already being mined, the probability of further discoveries is highest. This phenomenon, known as the "halo effect," is currently playing out in textbook fashion in Côte d'Ivoire. The West African country has become the new darling of international mining capital. While Australian producer Perseus Mining is demonstrating the enormous potential of the soil just a few kilometers away with the Yaouré mine, and Montage Gold is showing how attractive the region is to investors with the entry of the legendary Lundin Group, Kobo Resources is positioning itself right in between. For investors, the small explorer offers a rare opportunity to bet on the same geology and jurisdiction as the billion-dollar corporations, but with significantly more attractive leverage.

Mega rally in 2026 with artificial intelligence, chips, and storage solutions: Oracle, Graphano Energy, Broadcom, and Infineon
The year 2025 is drawing to an end. This year, the focus was clearly on the shares of AI providers in the areas of storage solutions, infrastructure, and databases. Investment banks see this sector as a potential driver of rising stock markets in 2026 as well. Will there be a correction in the first quarter? No one knows, because apart from the minor customs uncertainty in April 2025, there has been no serious decline in the international capital markets so far. This is surprising, because inflation remains high, interest rates are rising, and commodity prices are galloping away. These are all indications of higher input prices and falling margins. Which stocks are still making good money?

Silver and critical raw materials are on the rise! Standard Lithium, First Majestic Silver, and Antimony Resources!
The price of silver is simply unstoppable. The price per troy ounce is now over USD 57. First Majestic Silver is capitalizing on the sentiment and completing the sale of the Del Toro project. This will bring millions into the Company and make it a strategic shareholder in Sierra Madre. In the critical metals sector, rare earths are clearly the focus. However, there are other raw materials that are at least as sought-after and scarce. These include antimony. The recent billion-dollar deal between the US government and Korea Zinc highlights the strategic importance of antimony. An attractive stock in this sector is Antimony Resources. Q1 2026 should be exciting. In contrast, experts advise caution with lithium. Shareholders of Standard Lithium should also take note of this.

Silver boom shows no end! Exploration stocks like Silver Viper are significantly outperforming the precious metal! High reserves at Pan American Silver, record highs at Barrick
2025 was a historic year for silver. With a spectacular rally to a current all-time high of USD 67 per ounce, the price of silver has significantly outperformed gold and the broad mass of other commodities. Industrial demand, geopolitical uncertainties, and supply deficits are driving prices. Reaching new highs has also generated a strong buy signal. Market participants expect the bull market to continue. With shares in producers such as Pan American Silver, investors were able to significantly outperform silver. Exploration stocks such as Silver Viper, in particular, offer leveraged investment in the yellow precious metal's little brother in the current bull market cycle. Where is it still worth getting in?

Hecla Mining, Globex Mining, Coeur Mining – Trend remains intact
The precious metals sector was one of the big winners on the financial markets in 2025. While silver made headlines with its spectacular rally, gold in particular remains the overriding anchor of stability for investors. Despite temporary setbacks, there are many indications that the long-term upward trend remains intact. Structural drivers such as high government debt, geopolitical uncertainties, and continued demand for safe havens are likely to remain unchanged. Against this backdrop, gold and silver producers are once again coming into focus, as they can benefit disproportionately from the positive environment.
