At the moment, events are unfolding both nationally and on the global stage. As expected, the lockdown was extended until mid-February, but thankfully we were spared the feared mega-lockdown. After a four-year presidency, Donald Trump officially said goodbye and left the White House, at least temporarily. Jack Ma came back after several weeks of abstinence and addressed his fan community in a video. As a result, Alibaba's stock market value rose by a whopping USD 63 billion. Values are currently being raised at other companies as well.

    Subsidiary in the starting blocks

    The IPO of Qualtrics on Nasdaq should have a positive effect on the German software giant SAP. The subsidiary plans to raise up to USD 1.47 billion, and the current market valuation is USD 13.3 billion. Due to the enormously high demand, the price range from USD 20 to USD 24 has been increased to currently USD 22 to USD 26. The initial listing should take place in February. Just two years ago, the Walldorf-based Company acquired the data analytics firm for USD 8 billion.

    Relief for the SAP soul

    After weak third-quarter figures and another profit warning, 2020 was a year to forget for the German software giant. The Walldorf-based Company is somewhat more optimistic about the current year. According to the Company, demand should slowly pick up, especially in the second half of the year. Therefore, the IPO of Qualtrics is not inconvenient. The US Company wants to pass the proceeds of the capital increase on in full to SAP. Even after the IPO, SAP remains the major shareholder with 84%, while investor Silver Lake holds just under 5%. The rest will go into free float. After the price slide in November to below EUR 90, the SAP share price could re-establish itself above the EUR 100 mark, currently at EUR 104.70. A jump above the EUR 108.40 mark is expected and would generate a strong buy signal. The target would then be to close the gap at EUR 122.50.

    Gold struggles

    Gold made it to USD 1,960, but unfortunately, it did not go above the resistance in this move. Within just three days, the metal lost over USD 120 and is currently trading at USD 1.862. In the long term, due to the debt problems of almost all countries, we are very optimistic about the precious yellow metal and expect new highs in 2021 already.
    Even if corrections to USD 1,740 initially are possible in the short term, one should consider promising shares' initial purchase positions. Fascinating at the moment is the share of Osino Resources.

    The Canadian junior explorer is active in Namibia. In contrast to other African states, Namibia has legal security. 8% of Namibia's economic output is generated from the mining industry. The Canadians' flagship is Twin Hills Central, which lies southwest of Otjikoto and has been defined as 1.3 km long. Analysts at Echelon Capital Markets rated Osino as a "top pick" for the fourth quarter of 2020. The price target was set between CAD 2.30 and CAD 2.45. The current price is CAD 1.22.

    Results show a rosy path

    At the end of the year, the Canadians reported high-grade drilling results. Since the summer of 2020, 108 holes were drilled over a total length of 25,000 meters. The Company's management was more than positively surprised by the drilling results. It was announced that economic mineralization at Twin Hills Central could more than double to the east along 3,000 meters of strip length. These discoveries provide insight into the significant growth potential of the entire Twin Hills Central gold deposit and nearby satellite bodies along the strip and on parallel trends. Twin Hills West and Barking Dog's positive results are the best drillings to date in these areas. Exploration will be expanded over the next year. If the results are similar, the analyst firm Echelon will likely adjust the study and recalculate the price target.

    Plug Power commits

    Now the fuel specialist is also getting its Gigafactory. It is being built in the US state of New York, more precisely in Rochester, for USD 125 million. As early as July 2021, the American hydrogen pioneer's stacks and electrolysis plants' production capacities are to be significantly increased. In addition, the research and development department for stacks and the membrane electrode assembly is to be located in Rochester.

    Gold Boom in Nevada: Is Lahontan Gold on the Verge of a Major Breakout?

    Gold is in greater demand than it has been in years as a safe-haven asset, even though the recent rally has temporarily lost momentum. Amid this environment, one company is attracting increasing attention: Lahontan Gold Corp. With high-potential projects in mining-friendly Nevada and recent developments generating strong market interest, the stock appears to be approaching a pivotal phase. While the gold price searches for fresh momentum, an intriguing technical setup is emerging in Lahontan's chart. A breakout above CAD 0.44 could pave the way for a move toward significantly higher resistance zones. Is the stage being set for a new success story in the Nevada gold sector? We examine why the latest developments at Lahontan Gold may represent more than just short-term momentum and explore the untapped value hidden in the historic Santa Fe tailings piles.

    Why Barrick Mining and Newmont Corp. Could Rebound Now, and Desert Gold Could Be Poised for a Price Surge!

    Given all the negative news, one gets the immediate sense that the global economy might be teetering on the brink of collapse. That is when thoughts inevitably turn to the safest asset in history. Gold has made a resounding comeback in recent months and years. In times of global instability, investors are increasingly turning to the big names in the gold sector, such as Barrick Mining and Newmont Corp., which, after reaching their highs and subsequently undergoing a consolidation phase, could now be on the verge of a massive rebound. But while these gold giants provide stability, something is brewing in West Africa for those with a more speculative mindset. Desert Gold Ventures is on the verge of becoming a producer and is currently delivering a barrage of news that should not be ignored—and every piece of news packs a punch. In this report, we analyze why the combination of the industry leaders' fundamental strength and the operational momentum at a junior explorer currently represents one of the most exciting scenarios in the commodities market. Will the ambitious price targets set by GBC analysts soon become a reality for Desert Gold?

    The Gold Supercycle Is Underway. Lahontan Gold Aims to Deliver by 2028 at the Latest. Three Deposits, One Processing Facility — A Story Worth a Closer Look!

    • Mining

    • Commodities

    Three gold deposits, a single processing facility, and a logistics setup so simple it almost seems trivial. That is precisely what currently makes the Canadian development company Lahontan Gold an interesting case for investors looking to position themselves ahead of the next potential gold producer. While many mining projects struggle with inadequate infrastructure or complex permitting processes, Lahontan is relying on a former producing mine with historical infrastructure, a nearby satellite project, and legacy heap-leach piles that others once considered worthless. The concept is straightforward — and the execution appears carefully thought out.
