Alternative to DroneShield and Standard Lithium! NEO Battery Materials set to take off in 2026! Drones, robotics, and more in one stock
Drones, robotics, and electromobility are megatrends. Billions of dollars in capital are flowing into these industries. As a result, DroneShield and Standard Lithium were among the high flyers of the year. However, after share price gains of 330% and 170% respectively, they are anything but cheap. NEO Battery Materials has what it takes to become a price rocket in 2026. The Canadian company has developed more cost-effective, silicon-reinforced batteries that offer higher storage capacity and faster charging. Very importantly, commercialization is set to begin in 2026 at a factory in South Korea. Orders are already in place, and shortly before Christmas, NEO Battery became part of South Korea's defense industry ecosystem.

APA Corporation, NEO Battery Materials, JD.com – Sector rotation ahead
2025 will once again go down in history as a strong year for the stock market. This is particularly surprising from a German perspective, as the DAX, long considered an underperformer, even outperformed the leading US market with a gain of over 20%. However, anyone who believes that the coming year will be a simple continuation of this trend is likely to be disappointed. Many market observers expect prices to continue rising, buoyed by AI investments, fiscal tailwinds, and robust earnings. At the same time, however, the risks of unexpected turns are growing. High valuations, possible sector rotations, and underestimated asset classes could make 2026 a year in which flexibility is more important than blind optimism.

Nickel sulfides: The formula for profitability – why Power Metallic Mines is hot on the heels of Talon Metals and Magna
The nickel market is currently undergoing a split that offers investors clear guidance: while countless projects are failing due to low ore grades, skyrocketing energy costs, or politically unstable locations, a small group of winners is emerging. The formula for success is high-grade sulfide deposits in North America. Companies such as Talon Metals, which became known through a supply deal with Tesla, and Magna Mining in Canada's historic Sudbury Basin have proven that this geological constellation is the key to profitability. Power Metallic Mines is following in their footsteps. With its NISK project in Quebec, the Company has the geological ingredients of the two companies mentioned above, but is trading at a significant discount on the stock market, reflecting the past rather than the potential confirmed by drilling and the entry of several mining billionaires.

Will 2026 start with another surge? We evaluate BYD, NEO Battery Materials, and DroneShield
In December, many market participants start thinking about the next investment period – in this case, the year 2026. The 2025 investment year was one of the best periods of the past 20 years for both the DAX and the NASDAQ, with gains of 18.7% and 20.8%, respectively. Even the Trump tariff crash in April was offset entirely within just two weeks. The drivers of the upswing remain the US administration's policy, which is perceived as "supportive," as well as ongoing geopolitical conflicts and still tolerable interest rates between 2.7% (Bund) and 4.0% (USD Treasury) in the ten-year range. For the coming year, some experts expect another wave of inflation, high commodity prices, and rising energy costs. These are all factors that could once again stifle the economic upturn and bring additional volatility to the markets. And let's not forget: AI and defense seem to be at their peak — so who will lead the next revaluation of the stock markets?

The trio for the raw materials revolution: Why you should invest in European Lithium, Standard Lithium, and Lynas Rare Earths
The global hunt for the critical raw materials of the 21st century is on. Driven by rapid electrification and geopolitical upheaval, demand for lithium and rare earths is exploding, while supply is struggling. This fundamental discrepancy is creating a historic market imbalance and catapulting companies that can close strategic supply gaps into the spotlight. Three companies in particular are coming to the fore, whose stories are directly interwoven with the biggest megatrends of our time: European Lithium, Standard Lithium, and Lynas Rare Earths.

Great potential in the defense sector! RENK, Hensoldt, NEO Battery Materials
Milestone at NEO Battery Materials! With the lease of its new operational battery facility, NEO Battery is now ready to start commercializing its high-performance battery technology for defense, automotive and energy sectors. The new factory eliminates the need for time-consuming and costly construction. Orders and partnerships are also already in place. It is likely only a matter of time before batteries are also used in tanks. In Germany, RENK, for example, is developing drives for vehicles weighing up to 70 tons. Analysts consider the recent sell-off in defense stocks to be exaggerated. Their current favorite is Hensoldt. However, the sensor specialist is not recommended as a buy by all experts.
