AngloGold Ashanti, Power Metallic Mines, Lynas Rare Earths – Commodities on the Verge of Another Surge
The next commodities rally may be just getting started. As inflation remains stubbornly high worldwide and geopolitical tensions between China, the US, and the Middle East escalate, critical commodities are increasingly coming into the markets' focus. Copper and rare earths, in particular, are considered strategically indispensable, both for the energy transition and for AI, defence, and modern infrastructure. At the same time, disrupted supply chains and looming export restrictions are exacerbating the supply situation. Experts are already warning of massive supply shortages. For investors, this could create an explosive environment in which select commodity and mining stocks are poised for a new upward surge.

Capitalize on the Copper Shortage: BYD, Power Metallic Mines, and Intel in the Spotlight of the Supply Crisis
The recent copper rally is not just a short-term fad, but a fundamental shift. Automakers, commodity firms, and chip companies are suddenly all caught up in the same trend. That is because the energy transition and the AI boom are devouring vast quantities of the red metal. While BYD, as an electric vehicle giant, uses massive amounts of copper, Power Metallic Mines, as a raw materials supplier, secures polymetallic deposits. Intel, in turn, needs the metal for the cooling infrastructure of its AI data centers. Supply shortages and geopolitical risks are intensifying the race. Amid this tension, we are focusing on three companies: BYD, Power Metallic Mines, and Intel.

The Clock Is Ticking in Europe: How Group Eleven, Volkswagen, and thyssenkrupp Are Positioning for the Transition
The global economy is being shaken up by three major forces: the push for decarbonization, geopolitical tensions, and the race toward electromobility. For the steel industry in Europe, this means a tough transition—after all, it accounts for 7% of greenhouse gas emissions. At the same time, the EU mandates that by 2030, one-tenth of strategic raw materials must come from domestic sources. Vehicle manufacturers, in turn, are grappling with Scope 3 emissions from their supply chains. Energy prices are skyrocketing, supply chains are breaking down—but that is precisely where opportunities lie. We take a look at the current situation at Group Eleven Resources, Volkswagen, and thyssenkrupp.

Is this where the all-in-one worry-free mine is taking shape? What the industry needs now, who benefits – Power Metallic Mines, BMW, Lundin Mining
Investing in the early stages of mineral exploration is a risky endeavour—especially when betting on low-grade deposits in politically unstable regions. Savvy investors avoid these unpredictable risks and instead focus on strategically high-grade deposits in first-class jurisdictions like Canada. When a project can simultaneously demonstrate significant grades of copper, platinum group metals (PGMs), and nickel, this is of existential importance to the industry, especially today. In the wake of the global energy transition and the rapid rise of new key technologies, the search for reliable supply chains has gained momentum. While demand for battery metals and other industrial raw materials is skyrocketing, traditional mining regions are under increasing pressure from geopolitical conflicts. In this market environment, the wheat is being separated from the chaff: Only those who can combine first-class geology with absolute geopolitical security will prevail in the coming commodities supercycle. We present three exciting companies.

Strategic Power Trio: How Rheinmetall, Infineon, and Power Metallic Are Shaping the Backbone of the Future of Industry
The global race for critical metals such as lithium, cobalt, and rare earths has long since moved beyond the realm of harmless market mechanisms; today, it is a matter of strategic buildup. Copper has emerged as the true "common thread" of the energy transition and the AI revolution. As an indispensable component of every high-tech enterprise, from AI chips and complex sensor systems to massive energy grids, copper has become a structural bottleneck. A compulsive, at times painful, marriage prevails: for the Western industrial world is existentially dependent on a smooth supply to maintain technological supremacy. In other words, the industrial fate of the world hangs on the red metal. The vulnerability of these high-tech supply chains is currently being laid bare in all its harshness by the Strait of Hormuz blockade. When restrictive export rules from major producers collide with maritime paralysis, the geopolitical escalation has an immediate impact on the calculations of global goods production. 3 companies, 3 positions—clear hallmarks of a winning team!

Automotive Supply Chain Reset: Ford, Mercedes-Benz, and ESG Leader Power Metallic Mines
The automotive industry is under immense pressure: its supply chains for essential battery raw materials such as nickel, copper, and cobalt urgently need to become independent of Chinese imports. According to reports from the International Energy Agency (IEA), China currently controls around 80% of global production capacity for lithium-ion batteries and as much as 97% of the value chain for anode materials. A one-month supply stoppage would result in losses of over USD 8.5 billion in the European Union alone, according to the agency. While automakers such as Ford are transitioning production at their Cologne plant to all-electric fleets and require secure sources of raw materials in stable jurisdictions to do so, Mercedes-Benz is pursuing a strategy of direct participation in mining projects to ensure compliance with the strict environmental standards of its Ambition 2039 initiative. In this tense market environment, Power Metallic Mines is specifically exploring copper, nickel, and platinum group metal deposits in Canada. The flagship project is the Nisk project in Quebec, which is set to supply the entire range of key metals. By utilizing modern exploration technologies, the company is precisely identifying the resources that are indispensable for the next generation of high-performance batteries and catalysts for the automotive giants.

Bulls Regain Control? Globex Mining, SAP, and Oracle Gain Ground
The 2026 investment year has so far turned out much better than expected. Despite all the international turmoil and several current hotspots, the S&P 500 index reached a new all-time high of 7,147 points last week. Tech stocks were back in the spotlight, while the recently sought-after commodity stocks took a hit. Critical metals, however, remain the top issue due to disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz. China is now only exporting them in limited quantities, so many analysts already view them as a "showstopper" for economic development through 2030. What can the West do? Little in the short term, but in the long term, import dependencies must be replaced with genuine domestic deposits, many of which must also be brought into production quickly. Regulators are therefore called upon to act, even if the word "quickly" has not yet become part of the official vocabulary in Brussels. At Canada's Globex Mining, a lot is already getting underway. Tech stocks SAP and Oracle have likely finally put their lows behind them.
