Almonty Industries, Hensoldt, and Renk Group: Strategic moves for Europe's strength
Global tensions and dynamic US politics are driving Europe's security efforts. Companies like tungsten producer Almonty Industries and defense contractors such as Hensoldt and Renk Group are moving to the center of this geopolitical chess game. Almonty has a unique opportunity to break China's tungsten monopoly with its Sangdong mine in South Korea. This presents a glimmer of hope for companies like Rheinmetall, which require hundreds of tons of tungsten yearly to continue to meet the demand for armaments. The German radar technology company Hensoldt has already seen its share price rise by 20% since plans for a multi-billion-dollar defense fund were announced. Renk Group supplies the drives for Europe's rearmament: With a "Ba2" rating from Moody's, the transmission manufacturer benefits from the NATO boom and US expansion. Between geopolitical pressure, commodity risks, and political hurdles, peaceful coexistence is at stake. Who has a strategic advantage for the next move on the global playing field?

Copper as the key: Siemens Energy, Benton Resources, and Hensoldt are shaping the energy transition and security
Copper is a key factor in shaping the energy transition and security. The green transformation, in particular, is increasing demand. Siemens Energy is driving sustainable electrification and uses recycled material for circuit breakers in its energy transition products - a small step with a big impact. The Company is strengthening its market position in the circular economy and securing a billion-dollar order volume. The Canadian mineral exploration company Benton Resources is profiting from the raw materials boom and expanding its copper deposits in the Great Burnt project in Canada. Experts predict an imminent copper shortage due to the energy transition. Benton Resources can now position itself as a future supplier for this industry. Hensoldt, a specialist in sensor technologies in defense and aerospace, is deepening its drone expertise by cooperating with QinetiQ, thus ensuring geopolitical stability. Read on to find out how these companies combine sustainability, raw materials, and defense.

Key Industry: Defense! Will Rheinmetall, Renk & Co. soon turn to dynaCERT? Stock Jump at Evotec?
A bombshell at Rheinmetall! The defense company is considering converting automotive supply plants into defense production. Previously, Hensoldt had already reached out to Continental employees. It seems that defense companies are rushing to aid the struggling automotive industry as a key industry and job engine – or perhaps to replace it. Tanks, howitzers, and other heavy vehicles have one thing in common: diesel engines. To improve the CO2 balance of these vehicles, it would be only logical for Rheinmetall and Co. to turn to dynaCERT. The Company offers a retrofittable, affordable solution for reducing emissions and fuel consumption. Evotec does not have to worry about its carbon footprint. Instead, the share is showing signs of life!

Renk in the defense boom - Power Metallic Mines and BYD are also high flyers and uniquely positioned
In a world rapidly moving towards decarbonization, companies that have long operated in the shadow of well-known tech giants are suddenly in the spotlight. The EU's agreement on the Critical Raw Materials Act last year highlights how vital access to key resources and innovative manufacturing solutions has become. The stocks of the three companies presented here have one thing in common: they have risen significantly in recent weeks. Renk through high-precision technology for the defense and automotive industries, Power Metallic Mines through essential metals, and BYD through disruptive mobility concepts.

Rheinmetall, XXIX Metal, Newmont – The Merz trade is on
The traffic light coalition is history. Chancellor Olaf Scholz suffered a shipwreck and achieved the worst election result for the SPD in the post-war period. The new strong man at the helm, CDU frontman Friedrich Merz, already stated in advance that Germany would support Ukraine even more strongly, which means that armaments companies are likely to be among the long-term profiteers. The price of gold also performed strongly afterwards, heading towards the USD 3,000 per ounce mark. Copper could also continue its turnaround, benefiting undervalued producers and exploration companies.

BUY RECOMMENDATION for Hensoldt! TUI with 60% upside potential! Resource Gem Nova Pacific Metals!
Analysts have recently declared a supercycle for the European defense industry. Regardless of who will govern Germany in the future, billions will flow into armaments. One profiteer is Hensoldt. Despite the strong performance, analysts recommend buying the stock. Nova Pacific Metals also appears attractive. The explorer is sitting on a treasure trove of raw materials and has just expanded its territory. The hidden gem not only benefits from the gold supercycle but also from a wide range of raw materials. Positive news flow should drive the share this year. And what is TUI doing? Is the tourism supercycle really over? "No," says a board member and buys shares. Experts see a 60% price opportunity!

Global stock boom, Germany votes – Watch out for Mercedes-Benz, Argo Living, thyssenkrupp, Rheinmetall, and Hensoldt!
The stock market started the new year at full speed. The DAX index reached 22,900 points in February, which is in line with some analysts' year-end targets. Liquidity is high and sentiment remains buoyant despite all the negative events in the real world. The federal elections are just around the corner, with the prospect of a grand coalition with green or yellow enrichment. The people of Germany hope for a big change, but none of our politicians have the stature of a Donald Trump, who establishes new conditions by the second. The likelihood is high that coalition negotiations will take longer than we believe today, and the uncertainty surrounding the German economy will likely continue for a while. It will be interesting to see whether Germany ever experiences a real "double whammy". After all, there are enough problems to solve, but so far, the will and courage are lacking. Here you will find a selection of titles that could cause a stir even after the election.

Rheinmetall, European Lithium, and Intel: Geopolitical tensions are shaping technology and commodity markets
The tensions between the US and Europe in the context of the Ukraine conflict are already showing far-reaching economic changes on both sides of the Atlantic. The EU is preparing an enormous EUR 700 billion aid package for Ukraine. Given this news, the share price of the German arms company Rheinmetall is continuing to rise. After breaking through the EUR 900 mark, analysts expect four-digit prices in the near future. Europe needs to become less dependent on raw materials. With the explorer European Lithium and its lithium property in Carinthia, Austria, this can be achieved step by step because the demand for the battery metal is unabated. On the other side of the Atlantic, semiconductor giant Intel is undergoing major restructuring: a possible split caused the share price to jump by 13%. This may enable Intel to regain its competitiveness against rivals such as AMD and Nvidia.

Renk in a SUPERCYCLE! Elon Musk wants gold! USD 3,500 an ounce? Barrick off to a good start, but Globex Mining does better!
Will Renk shares soon reach an all-time high? The EUR 30 mark was broken yesterday. According to analysts, the defense stock will likely continue its FOMO rally. Like Hensoldt and Rheinmetall, the transmission manufacturer is in the supercycle. There is also news from Elon Musk. He wants to examine US gold reserves! This is once again leading to conspiracy theories – this time, the question is whether there is actually gold in Fort Knox. Meanwhile, experts see the gold price marching towards USD 3,500. The rally has now even reached the crisis-stricken Barrick Gold, with the stock climbing after recent announcements. Is all the bad news priced in? The stock of Globex Mining is performing significantly better than Barrick. And at the mine incubator, the price is being driven by positive newsflow. With its risk-diversified commodity portfolio, the stock still has potential.
