Mining comeback in Europe: Solid returns with Group Eleven Resources, Boliden, and Glencore
The European raw materials landscape is undergoing a realignment. For decades, the industry relied on cheap imports from overseas. But those days of largely unchallenged globalization are coming to an end. In order to end dependence on uncertain supply chains and ensure the survival of the industry, the focus is shifting to domestic extraction of critical metals. The European Commission has defined clear goals with the Critical Raw Materials Act and the ambitious RESourceEU Action Plan: By 2030, 10% of the mining and 40% of the processing of critical metals should occur within the EU. In this environment, the European zinc and silver sector is making a comeback. While zinc has historically been in demand primarily in the construction industry, it is now indispensable for the corrosion protection of wind turbines. Silver is even becoming a critical industrial metal due to the tremendous boom in artificial intelligence (AI) and the construction of data centers. Ireland, in particular, is establishing itself as a raw materials region in this phase. The country has one of the world's most productive geological provinces for high-grade base metals and boasts excellent geoscientific data from the Tellus program. Established mining giants such as Boliden and Glencore are setting standards, while up-and-coming explorers such as Group Eleven Resources are shining with spectacular discoveries and offering investors extremely lucrative entry opportunities.

Scarcity drives prices – Market turbulence continues! Almonty, Shell, and BP are the winners in the current situation
Recent developments in the Middle East have put the commodity markets under considerable strain. Within a short period, the price of oil climbed to more than USD 115 per barrel, reaching a level not seen for several years. This movement is primarily driven by increasing risks to global energy trade following the further escalation of the situation in the Persian Gulf. Particular focus is on the Strait of Hormuz, one of the world's most important energy transport routes. Around 20% of internationally traded crude oil passes through this strait every day, meaning that any disruption immediately affects prices and supply expectations. Yesterday, US President Donald Trump issued a clear warning to Iran not to disrupt international trade routes. Within four hours, the price of oil plummeted by USD 30. Scarcity, yes – volatility, extreme! The same applies to tungsten prices, which have risen by a further 100% since the beginning of the year. We take a closer look.

US President Trump and the AI hyperscalers! Siemens Energy, Nordex, and Stallion Uranium shares in focus
Major AI companies in the US are taking on greater responsibility for the energy supply of their data centers. At a recent meeting with President Donald Trump, Microsoft, Alphabet, Meta, and others agreed that the boom should not come at the expense of private households. Siemens Energy is currently benefiting greatly from this. Gas-fired power plants are currently the preferred solution for hyperscalers when it comes to power supply. At the same time, they are all relying on nuclear energy. The required uranium is expected to come primarily from North America. This makes Stallion Uranium shares interesting for investors. A steady stream of news could support the stock this year. At Nordex, the tailwind is currently subsiding. At least the shares appear to be consolidating. Analysts are full of praise, and operations are running smoothly.

Almonty Industries, Glencore, Rio Tinto – The battle for critical raw materials intensifies
The global commodities landscape is approaching a turning point. Export restrictions, geopolitical tensions, and surging demand from the defense sector, the energy transition, and high-tech industries are driving up the prices of strategic metals. Particularly critical raw materials are coming under increasing pressure, while important producing countries are tightening control over their supply chains. Analysts are already talking about a structural revaluation of entire raw materials markets. At the same time, selected producers and trading groups are benefiting from rising prices, new projects, and strategic alliances along the supply chains. For investors, this means that companies that secure access to scarce metals and could play a key role in the new raw materials order are coming into focus.

A billion-dollar opportunity in energy security: Why now is the time to invest in Siemens Energy, American Atomics, and Cameco
The old certainty that energy simply comes from the wall socket is a thing of the past. Missile attacks on oil fields and the insatiable appetite of AI data centers have radically transformed the markets. While the green energy boom is increasingly running into infrastructure bottlenecks, the fundamentals suddenly matter again: reliable capacity, grid stability, and secure access to raw materials. The new energy logic no longer rewards ideals alone - it rewards availability. This turning point is creating clear winners whose business models address exactly where the gaps are emerging. That is why it is worth taking a closer look at three players currently moving into the spotlight: Siemens Energy, American Atomics, and Cameco.

Iran and the oil dilemma – Alternatives on the rise! CHAR Technologies, Nordex, and Siemens Energy in focus
The geopolitical escalation in the Middle East has hit commodity markets with full force. At the beginning of the week, the price of oil surged above USD 115 per barrel as a result of the Iran crisis, but quickly fell back to around USD 105. Nevertheless, this remains a level that was last reached several years ago. The trigger has been major disruptions to supply chains around the Persian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz, through which roughly one-fifth of global oil trade normally passes. Oil has thus once again become a symbol of a classic geopolitical shock: physical scarcity meets panic-driven hedging on the futures markets. For dynamic investors, alternatives are coming to the fore. What can replace oil in the long term, or at least partially substitute it? CHAR Technologies, Nordex, and Siemens Energy may provide compelling answers.

Valuation anomaly in the drone sector: Solid returns with Volatus Aerospace, Hensoldt, and DroneShield
The global security architecture has been facing a turning point since well before the outbreak of the conflict involving Iran. Developments on NATO's eastern flank show that the dominance of heavy weapon systems is increasingly being challenged by low-cost, unmanned aerial vehicles. In this new reality, a drone costing USD 500 can destroy a battle tank worth USD 10 million. This development is forcing the defense industry to rethink its approach. Conventional air defense systems are often overwhelmed by the sheer number and low radar signature of enemy drones. Innovative solutions are needed to detect, assess, and neutralize threats. So-called interceptor drones for the targeted neutralization of hostile aerial targets are becoming the focus of attention for the military and procurement authorities. Hensoldt, DroneShield, and Volatus Aerospace have positioned themselves as innovative solution providers in this highly specialized niche. We show where the most attractive opportunities lie for investors and pay particular attention to an up-and-coming company from Canada.

Running out of ammunition? The key role of Antimony Resources, Rheinmetall, and Boeing
The arms industry is facing a severe test amid the war in the Middle East. The enormous consumption of ammunition is pushing already limited Western production capacities to their limits. While the US has raised its defense spending for 2026 to a record level of USD 901 billion, the intense exchange of fire in the Middle East and the use of modern defense systems are depleting stockpiles at a record pace. In this environment, the critical semi-metal antimony is becoming a focus of national security. The element is irreplaceable as a hardening agent for lead alloys in armor-piercing projectiles and for high-precision infrared sensors. According to the US Geological Survey (USGS), the global supply situation is becoming increasingly tense. This is mainly due to strict export restrictions imposed by China, which dominates global mining with a market share of just under 60% and has long used the metal as a strategic weapon. To guarantee defense capabilities, industry giants such as Rheinmetall and Boeing must ramp up their production. The problem is that raw materials are finite. This is where players such as Antimony Resources come into play, securing the coveted antimony in Canada.
