Oil Price Shock and Middle East Panic! The Next 100% with DroneShield, dynaCERT, and Hensoldt
The stock market is currently under significant stress. The ongoing fighting in Iran, as well as conflicts between Israel and neighboring states, poses a serious threat to the global supply of oil and raw materials. Twenty percent of the world's daily oil production passes through the Strait of Hormuz. A closure or mining of the strait could trigger oil price increases of 20 to 30%. Due to widespread nervousness, prices have already surged 50% since the start of the year, reaching USD 100. Beyond the tragic casualties on all sides and the massive destruction everywhere, the conflict acts as a showstopper for industry and global growth. For investors, the question is: Which sectors could thrive in this environment? As a stock market service, the task is to filter out the terrible news and identify the "good." Completely without emotion - not an easy task! Here is an attempt.

The Commodities Bet for 2026: Why Desert Gold Ventures Could Outperform Barrick Mining and How K+S is Benefiting from the Iran War
In the spring of 2026, the gold market is in a phase of extreme volatility that sends shivers down the spines of traders. Following a spectacular all-time high of over USD 5,400 per troy ounce in January, gold is now trading sideways in a volatile range of roughly USD 5,000–5,200. Investors are watching intently the players who extract this precious metal from the earth. At the centre of this is the exciting question of whether "smaller companies" like Desert Gold Ventures will outpace the sluggish giant producers. While Barrick Mining struggles with an unprecedented cost spiral, Desert Gold Ventures is already poised in Mali for its first production. This picture is complemented by a strategic look at K+S, which is currently benefiting from the war in Iran, as 30% of fertilizers pass through the Strait of Hormuz. Who is betting on the right commodity stocks now and will profit from them in 2026?

Almonty Industries: Analyst price targets continue to rise - Now as high as USD 25.80. What is behind the new targets
It does not happen often that a commodity market that has remained stable for decades suddenly becomes fundamentally disrupted. Yet that is exactly what we are currently witnessing in the tungsten right now. China is curbing exports, the US Department of Defense is banning Chinese tungsten starting in 2027, and prices are surging to historic highs. Amid this perfect storm stands a company that has quietly and persistently been building a Western alternative for years: Almonty Industries. While the world searches for solutions, the Canadian producer has just started operations at its Sangdong mine in South Korea - at precisely the right time and in exactly the right place.

Bull market or bear market? Not all that glitters is gold! Evotec, TeamViewer, and Lahontan Gold under review
With volatility at current levels, investors are looking for stable stocks. That is not easy, because on days when oil prices start the morning with a USD 35 premium, stocks are sometimes sold off in a panic. This is a paradise for traders, an opportunity for long-term investors, and a costly mistake for the nervous. This is how modern stock markets operate: AI-driven trading algorithms anticipate possible scenarios based on volatility patterns and reshape order books within milliseconds. For private investors, the key is to keep their nerve and separate the wheat from the chaff. We take a closer look at Evotec, TeamViewer, and Lahontan Gold. Because where there is light, there is also shadow.

Dividend hunters take note! 10% with RE Royalties, dividend surprise at BMW, will Mutares now follow suit?
Dividends or growth? But why choose when you can have both? There are actually companies that deliver both. One example is RE Royalties, a Canadian specialist financier for renewable energy projects. Investors can expect a dividend yield of around 10%, combined with additional price potential for the moderately valued stock. Mutares could soon deliver a dividend surprise, which would also give the shares a new boost. Despite the challenging industry situation, auto manufacturer BMW is shining with a yield of over 5%.

Gas shortages and the USD 150 bet on oil! Caution advised for Shell, BP, A.H.T. Syngas, and Plug Power
The daily news offers little reassurance for investors. Burning refineries, damaged oil tankers, and air battles over the planet's most oil-rich region mean extreme tension and volatility for the international capital markets. Despite all the horror, the financial carousel continues to turn. Institutional and private investors worldwide are sitting on USD 250 trillion in assets seeking investment opportunities. This keeps capital flows alive and encourages millions of people to keep an eye on the flashing prices. Energy companies are currently moving to the top of the list of interests, while some previously favored high-tech and AI stocks are currently consolidating. In this environment, it is worth looking not only at multinationals such as Shell or BP, but also at specialty stocks such as A.H.T. Syngas or Plug Power. They address the challenges of the times and must demonstrate how they can deliver operational performance in this environment. We take a closer look at the numbers.

DroneShield, NEO Battery, and BYD: Innovations in a billion-dollar market
Drones are rapidly changing modern warfare. Today, inexpensive aircraft can threaten even expensive military technology, pushing traditional defense systems to their limits. At the same time, the demand for powerful batteries is increasing, as range and operating time could become decisive factors. AI-supported drone defense, high-performance batteries, and new battery technologies are thus at the center of a billion-dollar innovation race.

Investing in the hydrogen revolution: Solid returns with Pure One, Nel, and Ballard Power
The hydrogen economy is coming of age. After years of political debate and countless industry prototypes and visions, the sector is now entering a phase of industrial maturity. Industry experts describe the current year as decisive, as projects with solid economics are now separating themselves from purely politically driven initiatives. While Norwegian pioneer Nel is building the infrastructure for green hydrogen at gigawatt scale through mass production of highly efficient electrolysers, Ballard Power Systems is delivering solutions for emission-free heavy-duty and passenger transport with proven fuel cell modules. The Australian company Pure One Corporation covers the entire value chain. With its "end-to-end ecosystem," the company bridges the gap between production and application, enabling seamless adoption of CO2-free logistics solutions. Investors are in an exciting phase in which hydrogen is being reevaluated as an energy source for industry.

Nearly 50% upside potential: Rheinmetall, RENK, and Standard Uranium
Buying opportunities are emerging here. After the muted market reaction to the annual results, analysts see a buying opportunity in RENK. According to their estimates, the stock could offer almost 50% upside potential, although there are also more cautious voices. Rheinmetall, too, failed to fully convince the market with its 2025 results and outlook. Given the current valuations, investors appear to be expecting more. In contrast, uranium stocks may be presenting fresh entry opportunities. Driven by the AI boom, industry leaders such as Cameco have already performed strongly. Exploration companies, however, could still have significant catch-up potential. Standard Uranium is pursuing a risk-diversified strategy. The company is exploring a broad portfolio of projects near major players such as Fission Uranium, NexGen Energy, and F3 Uranium. A new drilling program scheduled to begin this month could trigger a revaluation of the stock.

The focus is now on critical infrastructure – Power Metallic Mines delivers dream results, SAP and Oracle test the rebound
Every day, a flood of news hits the capital markets. The focus is on international crises, which in turn have major implications for national economies. Areas with large fossil fuel reserves are coming to the fore, and for months now, scenarios of critical metal shortages have been discussed and reassessed accordingly. High-tech and AI stocks thrive on a steady influx of computing power and are dependent on the promised expansion of the electrical infrastructure. This requires a variety of raw materials from the metal sector. Power Metallic Mines has positioned itself perfectly in the current situation with its NISK project, while Oracle and SAP are driven by their cloud and data models, which are falling out of favor due to AI. It remains to be seen whether a revival in earnings can take place in line with analysts' estimates. It is not easy to convince people, so we are analyzing the accompanying circumstances.
