War increasingly likely? This supplier is improving drones: AeroVironment, NEO Battery Materials and Kratos Defense
"Is war against Putin inevitable?" This was the headline in BILD yesterday in response to statements by military historian Sönke Neitzel on the ARD talk show Maischberger. According to Neitzel, Putin has already paved the way for war with his recent escalations. The historian asks: "If Putin is determined – many in NATO say so, and I would agree – will he wait until we can say that even the German Armed Forces now have enough drones? No, probably not." Neitzel believes that, due to the current poor equipment of many NATO countries, a military conflict between NATO and Russia could occur within the next three years. Investments in drones are therefore urgently needed. We present a battery supplier that offers tailor-made technology for drones, capable of drastically reducing the dependence of Western militaries on batteries from China.

E-mobility tax-free through 2035! Keep an eye on BYD, NEO Battery Materials, NIO and BASF
In the third quarter of 2025, the global market for electric mobility continued to develop dynamically: over 4.2 million new electric vehicles were registered, an increase of around 28% compared to the previous year. While China confidently maintained its leading position as the largest single market, Europe also grew strongly with double-digit growth rates. Driven by manufacturers such as BYD, Tesla, and Volkswagen, NIO is also slowly entering the scene. At the same time, more and more capital is flowing into innovative battery technologies to meet rising demand in the long term. NEO Battery Materials is emerging as a specialist in the innovative battery solutions business. This rapid development illustrates how closely technology, raw material markets, and the electric mobility boom are intertwined. We present some ideas for investors.

SHARE PRICE EXPLOSION at Standard Lithium, European Lithium, MP Materials! These commodity stocks are outshining Barrick Mining!
It does not always have to be gold! Barrick has gained around 80% so far this year. The following commodity stocks are outperforming it significantly. European Lithium's share price has exploded by over 100% since Friday. Initially, a share buyback sparked the euphoria, then came the bombshell: Reuters reported a possible US government investment in Critical Metals. European Lithium holds the majority of the Company, which is focused on the exploration of a massive rare earths project in Greenland. The impact of a US entry was already demonstrated by MP Materials this summer, where Apple is also involved. Standard Lithium has gained an impressive 200% in six months. How far will the boom in critical raw materials drive these stocks?

Electric vehicles, batteries, wind power: How Volkswagen, Graphano Energy, and Nordex are winning at the energy transition poker game
The energy and mobility transformation is accelerating rapidly. Driven by regulatory requirements and technological leaps, a billion-dollar market is emerging that is breaking down traditional industry boundaries. The key lies in the symbiosis of clean energy, powerful storage, and electric transportation. In this ecosystem of the future, three specialized players are reshaping the value chain. Volkswagen is a giant in the automotive industry, Graphano Energy is an explorer of critical battery raw materials, and Nordex is a pioneer in wind power. Which companies will be the winners of this upheaval?

One-stop shop – Battery metals from a single source: Umicore, BASF, Power Metallic Mines
Anyone who is often in a rush knows the challenge after work: just a quick trip to the store. In such cases, we usually head to our trusted supermarket, where we can find all the products we need in one place. The same principle applies in mining. Complex products, such as modern high-performance batteries for electric vehicles, require a wide range of metals. Polymetallic deposits are therefore in particularly high demand – they are like the familiar neighborhood supermarket for industrial customers. We explain why Power Metallic Mines has the potential to become a one-stop shop for potential major customers such as Umicore and BASF.

Everything is going electric – and this detail could make investors wealthy: Power Metallic Mines, Rio Tinto, Freeport-McMoRan
The future is electric – heating systems and vehicles are already running on electricity today. Those with their own rooftop solar panels welcome this shift, as solar energy becomes essentially free after the initial investment. But this transition also requires massive investment. Experts at EY report that global electrification will require 115% more copper to be mined over the next thirty years than has been mined in all of human history. The scale of the challenge is, therefore, enormous. Making copper mining sustainable is even more so. But there are solutions.

Tariff chaos as a springboard: How Volkswagen, European Lithium, and BYD are securing future profits
The global automotive industry is in a quandary: New US punitive tariffs of up to 50% on imported vehicles threaten to sideline European manufacturers. Even though Donald Trump is giving Europe more time for negotiations, the tariffs are still on the table. These tariffs would result in a slump in exports and shrinking margins. But there is also an opportunity amid the chaos. Those who strengthen local supply chains, drive forward electric innovations, and cooperate strategically will dominate tomorrow's market. Therefore, we look at two major automakers, Volkswagen and BYD, and analyze European Lithium, which will become very important for European supply chains.

Tariffs and Markets – Where investors should strike now with Power Metallic Mines, Steyr, and Vonovia
The new US tariffs on cars and goods have become a reality this week, and the markets are reacting with uncertainty: Companies like Power Metallic Mines, Steyr Motors, and Vonovia are in focus – their share prices are responding differently. This moment offers opportunities for investors. The Canadian junior explorer Power Metallic Mines offers long-term investors an exciting field of copper, gold, and valuable battery metals. Steyr Motors shines as a stable growth stock with a EUR 200 million order backlog in the defense sector, despite a price scandal. Vonovia attracts those seeking stability with a 4.2% dividend yield. However, the real estate crisis continues to erode the Company's fundamentals. Market sentiment is tense. The tariffs are testing the resilience of these companies – how they react could set the tone for the coming weeks.

BYD, European Lithium, Lufthansa – It is high time to act
For the first time in history, the German leading index DAX was able to surpass the magic mark of 23,000 points last week, thanks to the possible new Chancellor Friedrich Merz and the sudden lifting of the debt brake. However, the problems remain. Since the start of Donald Trump's second term in office, the global economic order has been in jeopardy. Trade wars and punitive tariffs are on the agenda. Europe must be able to act independently of its big brother in the future, both in terms of security and the supply of raw materials.
