Expropriation Shock, E-Prescription Boom, Critical Raw Materials: Vonovia, Redcare and Strategic Resources in Focus
While the political upheaval following the Berlin House of Representatives election could destabilize Vonovia in the German capital, the ongoing digitization of the healthcare sector may offer significant advantages for online pharmacy providers. Away from these scenes, a smaller player is emerging in Finland and Canada that aims to help shape this future market for raw materials with "green steel". We start with Redcare Pharmacy, then turn to the beleaguered real estate giant Vonovia, and finally focus on Strategic Resources. Read on to discover the pros and cons of these stocks and whether they might be a good addition to your portfolio.

AI and Crypto Stock Movers with Rare Value: Strategy, Metaplanet, Circle Internet and Strategic Resources in Focus
Power shortages, critical metals and the next technological hurdles - we are currently heading toward a fragile environment marked by high inflation, geopolitical pressure, and rising interest rates. Central banks can hardly stray from their primary mandate of monetary stability, while alternative currencies and payment systems are casting doubt on the fiat world. The sectors mentioned are closely intertwined, as complex AI systems require vast amounts of tamper-proof, transparent data for training and reliable operation. Blockchain technology provides the ideal infrastructure by storing data in a decentralized way, cryptographically securing the origin of information, and effectively preventing manipulation. In addition, the decentralized network enables the sharing of enormous computing capacity, breaking the monopoly of large data centres and democratizing AI development. A solid infrastructure is essential for all the necessary components to work together seamlessly. At the starting point of the production chain, this primarily includes critical metals. Investors must therefore think multidimensionally to give their portfolios both growth potential and security.

Raw Materials, Defense and Aerospace: Spectacular Price Targets for Almonty, Renk and OHB
September is traditionally not the best month for the stock market, which is why the DAX, Dow Jones, and others have struggled recently. During these periods, it is worth looking at second- and third-tier stocks. After all, individual stocks in this segment offer tremendous potential—if analysts are to be believed. Sensational studies were released last week on Almonty Industries, Renk and OHB. At first glance, a mining company, a transmission manufacturer, and a satellite builder have little in common. But on closer inspection, all three raise the question of how independent the West wants to be in the future when it comes to raw materials, defense, and space infrastructure. All three stocks are trading well below their all-time highs and offer upside potential ranging from 60% to over 100%.

World Leaders in Their Fields: ASML, Albemarle and Almonty Industries in Focus
True global market leaders dominate and control their businesses while keeping competitors at bay. Sometimes, high market shares result from unique technology, as is the case with ASML. Other times, they stem from years of building a business to become a key industry player, as seen with Almonty Industries and Albemarle. However, even these companies and their stocks have come under pressure over the summer amid heightened uncertainty in the equity markets. Their shares are now well below their previous record highs. This could present opportunities for strategically minded investors. That is why we are looking at ASML, Albemarle and Almonty Industries today.

Breakthroughs, Production Launches and Billion-Dollar Contracts – Almonty Industries, Secunet Security Networks, Viking Therapeutics
Strong clinical trial data, the launch of a strategically important raw-materials production facility, and a potential billion-dollar contract are driving market activity. The three companies presented today could benefit from long-term megatrends such as obesity therapies, secure supply chains, and rising defense spending. However, high growth opportunities are offset by clinical risks, operational challenges, and ambitious valuations.

Tungsten Shortage: Almonty Secures Sandvik Deal – New US Defense Rules Raise Pressure on Lockheed & Co.
In extreme operating conditions, cutting-edge technology relies on materials that push the boundaries of physics. Whether in ammunition, engines, or milling heads that machine titanium blocks for stealth jets—there is no getting around tungsten. With the highest melting point of any pure metal and an enormous density, the element is considered indispensable for industry and the defence sector. Yet, of all things, the West is almost left high and dry when it comes to this key component. Beijing controls over three-quarters of global production and also dominates downstream processing. However, price spikes and stricter trade rules are now shaking the industry awake. At the centre of it all is the US tungsten specialist Almonty Industries.

SpaceX Needs Raw Materials: MP Materials, Standard Lithium and Strategic Resources Aim to Meet the Demand
SpaceX's appetite for raw materials is enormous. Elon Musk's company requires large quantities of a wide range of strategic materials for rockets, satellites and battery systems. These include rare earths for high-performance magnets, lithium for battery systems, as well as titanium and iron for high-load components and steel structures. SpaceX is just one example of the growing global demand. Companies such as Strategic Resources, MP Materials and Standard Lithium are working to supply the market. They are developing raw material deposits needed for critical applications in the space industry and numerous other key sectors. Strategic Resources focuses on iron, titanium and vanadium; MP Materials on rare earths; and Standard Lithium on lithium. Only one of the three stocks appears to be undervalued.

Lockheed Martin, Almonty Industries, Rheinmetall: Defense Boom Meets Tungsten Shortage
The global defense boom is entering its next phase. Growth is no longer driven solely by new orders, but by how quickly companies can ramp up production capacity. However, missiles, aircraft, and armoured vehicles require large quantities of strategic materials. Tungsten, in particular, is virtually irreplaceable for many military applications because of its extreme hardness and heat resistance. As Western defense contractors expand their manufacturing, control over secure sources of raw materials is therefore increasingly becoming a strategic issue.

Panic or Buying Opportunity? SFC Energy, TeamViewer, Almonty Industries
Panic at Almonty? The stock has plummeted from EUR 16 to EUR 12 in just a few days. But investors should remain calm. As in the past, this could even present a buying opportunity. Analysts' price targets reach as high as USD 33. Plus, the company's fundamentals remain solid. Tungsten is in short supply worldwide, and more and more countries are restricting exports. At the same time, Almonty is expanding its tungsten production and is earning handsomely at current price levels. SFC Energy's half-year results were also impressive. Nevertheless, the stock has been trading sideways. Analysts remain optimistic. Optimism has also returned to TeamViewer. More and more investors now see the German software company as an AI winner rather than an AI loser. The stock is making a comeback.

Jungheinrich, BioNTech and Almonty Industries: The Hidden Comeback Opportunities for Your Portfolio
The market environment is currently rather weak, characterized by slightly falling share prices across the stock markets. In the commodities markets, however, especially in oil, prices are rising slightly to more sharply, by contrast. Investors are getting increasingly nervous, a trend also reflected in bond yields. Yet it is precisely in such phases, when nervousness takes over and many market participants throw in the towel, that attractive entry opportunities can emerge for savvy investors. That is why today we are looking at three very different companies that nevertheless have one thing in common: they could be heading for a rebound or an upward move. With BioNTech, we look at a company focused on the oncology sector. Jungheinrich takes us into the world of warehouse logistics and mechanical engineering — a genuine industry veteran. Finally, we turn to Almonty. The company was once a hidden gem in the commodities sector. That is no longer the case, however: given its strategic importance to the Western defence industry, it has become increasingly difficult to overlook. Join us on an analytical journey through financial statements and charts to discover where interesting opportunities may arise in terms of risk and return.
