From AI Boom to Copper Boom! Siemens Energy Above EUR 200, Oracle Set to Double? Is Power Metallic Mines Ready to Break Out?
Current figures are rarely decisive on the stock market. The market looks to the future, comparing company announcements or quarterly data against expectations. This drives price movements. Figures from competitors also allow for conclusions to be drawn, but not without limitations. Siemens Energy has recently come under pressure because its competitor, GE Vernova, provided an outlook that fell short of expectations. AI is not always a surefire driver of share price performance. Oracle illustrates this point. Although the numbers are solid, the high level of investment is alarming market participants. They perceive rising risks, which led to a massive share price correction. Analysts now believe the stock could double in value. According to experts, there is even more upside potential at Power Metallic Mines. The Canadian company owns one of the largest polymetallic deposits in North America. The release of the first resource estimate is expected soon. This could boost the share price. Analysts see nearly 200% upside potential here. How should forward-looking investors position themselves now?

These Are the Leaders in a League of Their Own! Despite price surges at Almonty, Micron, and Aixtron, Is There More Upside Ahead?
Over the past 12 months, stocks in the AI, commodities, and defence sectors have, on the whole, been investor favourites. Price surges were increasingly common. In the meantime, a correction set in that affected all sectors for various reasons. Despite rising defence budgets, investor sentiment toward defence stocks has deteriorated sharply in recent weeks. Meanwhile, signs of overheating in the AI sector have eased, although the financial results of leading AI companies continue to reflect a strong long-term structural growth trend. Commodity stocks also corrected after a spectacular run. Almonty Industries has been a notable exception. The company continues its relentless rise toward becoming the largest producer of the critical metal tungsten in the Western world—a truly unique competitive position. So, where do these market leaders go from here?

Software giants are longing for a new gold rush! SAP, ServiceNow, TeamViewer, and DRC Gold are stepping into the spotlight
The stock market is currently showing no mercy. Against a backdrop of growing belligerence, excessive debt, and rising inflation, growth stocks are repeatedly making a run toward higher valuations. "Asset inflation" is the buzzword. It actually reached a short-term peak in early June with the IPO of Elon Musk's marvel, "SpaceX." Since then, the market has been moving sideways, and occasionally downward, amid high volatility. While chip stocks celebrated an explosive summer rally, software stocks like SAP, TeamViewer, and ServiceNow took a steep nosedive. Are there already serious hopes for a rebound here? Even gold, which had been performing exceptionally well, reaching a new all-time high of over USD 5,400 in January, came under pressure. DRC Gold, an advanced explorer on Africa's east coast, is reporting good progress and is weathering the correction in the precious metals sector well, as evidenced by its share price performance. It is hard to imagine where the market might go if investors jump back on the gold bandwagon!

Bloodbath in Chip Stocks Triggered by Margin Calls? Infineon, Aixtron, LPKF Laser—Is Zefiro Methane Headed for a Golden Future?
Following the historic rally, semiconductor stocks have recently suffered a brutal sell-off. It was not just SK Hynix, Samsung, and SanDisk that came under heavy pressure. German chip-related companies such as Infineon, Aixtron, and LPKF Laser have also lost up to 50% of their value. The decline appears to have been amplified, at least in part, by margin calls in South Korea. What does this mean for going forward? Will the AI boom drive semiconductor stocks higher again? One lesser-known beneficiary of the construction of data centers and energy infrastructure is Zefiro Methane. The company specializes in the remediation of abandoned oil and gas wells, a multi-billion-dollar market in the US. Surging energy demand from the AI sector is creating additional demand for the company's services and could ultimately support higher profit margins. The new partnership with the Well Done Foundation could provide another catalyst, accelerating the company's growth trajectory.

Defence or Artificial Intelligence? On the Hunt for Blockbusters with Rheinmetall, Hensoldt, Strategic Resources, and TKMS
The market is becoming increasingly concentrated. Despite fresh record highs in July, the number of true winners can almost be counted on one hand. The strongest performers continue to be a select group of high-tech and AI stocks, while semiconductor shares are already beginning to lose momentum. Meanwhile, oil and gas stocks are picking up speed again, while the long upswing in the defence sector that began in 2022 appears to be running out of steam. As a result, many defence companies ranked among the worst-performing stocks during the first half of the year. Now the summer slowdown has arrived, and even a potential interest cut by Fed Chair Kevin Warsh is unlikely to lift sentiment. The reason is straightforward: inflation remains stubbornly high, hovering around the 4% mark in the US for an unusually long time. President Donald Trump had hoped that replacing Jerome Powell would pave the way for lower interest rates, but those expectations now appear increasingly unrealistic. Then there is the tariff setback, which is costing US taxpayers another USD 100 billion. In short, the warning signs of a broader market correction are becoming increasingly difficult to ignore. For active investors, the only real question is when, not if. Against this backdrop, we take a closer look at the battered defence sector in search of the next potential blockbuster investment.

AI, Tech, Debt, and Ratings: Oracle Faces a Reality Check, Renk Searches for a Bottom, and Volatus Aerospace May Be Poised for a Technical Breakout
Oracle is pouring billions into the AI frenzy, thereby risking its credit rating. The result: investors are fleeing in droves, and the share price is plummeting. At the same time, Renk's share price has now collapsed by over 50% from its high. The German defence industry's rising star, along with Rheinmetall and Hensoldt, is desperately seeking a foothold. "Collective punishment" is the buzzword here! While the big names dominate the headlines, the Canadian aerospace company Volatus Aerospace may have finally done its technical analysis homework after turbulent times, with an open price gap now closed. Could this be a signal—or a starting gun? We analyze these three different companies and highlight where investors can still find interesting opportunities.

Turning Data into Returns: The Strategies Behind Palantir and S&P Global—How Aspermont Combines Data and Commodities
Digitalization is creating a veritable flood of data. But raw data in its unstructured form has no economic value. It is like a raw material that must first be refined and contextualized through in-depth industry expertise. Anyone who wants to stay competitive today must base their decisions on high-quality, processed data. Industry estimates consistently show that data analysts and data scientists spend, on average, more than 50% of their daily work time searching for and formatting data sets. It is no wonder that, according to market researchers, the global data monetization market is projected to grow to as much as USD 25 billion by 2034. In this article, we explore who is leading the way in this fast-paced environment and what innovative approaches are available.

AI, Oncology, and Defense: TeamViewer, BioNTech, and Antimony Resources—A Great Mix for Your Portfolio!
Created and published on behalf of Antimony Resources Corp.
The stock market is a place of extremes, and today we are looking at a trio—TeamViewer, BioNTech, and Antimony Resources—that comes from three different sectors. There is a German software pioneer that, after painful setbacks, is suddenly showing clear signs of life again. There is a once-celebrated vaccine hero pumping billions into a risky but revolutionary future in cancer therapy—while still holding a substantial cash reserve. And then there is a Canadian mineral explorer digging deep into the earth for a material without which our modern world would simply grind to a halt—one that is also crucial for the defense industry. It is precisely this mix of a software-AI turnaround, a biotech-oncology transformation, and mineral potential that makes the market so incredibly exciting. Join us on a journey through three fascinating corporate stories.

Nuclear Energy 3.0: Computing Power for AI and the Cloud – Standard Uranium, AMD, Broadcom, and SpaceX Can Deliver
According to McKinsey's forecasts, massive data center capacity will be needed to fully support global AI growth through 2030. In total, the high-tech industry will need to invest approximately USD 5.2 billion in AI infrastructure alone. At the same time, the International Energy Agency (IEA) forecasts that global electricity demand for the required computing power will more than double to 945 terawatt-hours. In this highly capital-intensive environment, AMD and Broadcom are positioning themselves as challengers in the chip market, while SpaceX is attracting visionary attention with its connectivity services and space-based energy concepts. Slightly upstream, but serving as an important bridge, is the uranium industry—a raw material that is in high demand for the construction of the next generation of power plants. Who is best positioned in this market?

New Billions for TKMS, AI Rally at Alibaba, and Power Metallic Mines with Chart Potential
Geopolitical crises are like a ticking time bomb for the stock market. Over the weekend, the situation in the Strait of Hormuz escalated dramatically once again. Iran blocked one of the world's most important trade routes, container ships were fired upon, and the US responded with airstrikes. What may be just another headline for many, however, represents a completely new market dynamic for investors. This escalation in the Middle East is putting pressure on energy prices, thereby creating winners and losers in the most unexpected places. It is precisely at times like this, when the overall market comes under pressure again, that real opportunities emerge. The Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba, for example, is staging a fascinating comeback, while the German defense contractor TKMS should actually benefit from contracts worth billions. And then there are the companies profiting from critical raw materials. Companies like Power Metallic Mines, with their raw materials lying dormant underground, are also working toward the future of electric mobility—an industry on the verge of a revaluation. Three completely different companies, three completely different industries, but all directly or indirectly influenced by what is currently happening in the Persian Gulf. The question remains: who is really benefiting from this crisis, or which entry point offers a good setup? Read on to find out how you can profit from the current geopolitical tensions.
