Defence Spending Boom: BAE Systems, Volatus Aerospace and AeroVironment in Focus
Governments worldwide have approved major increases in defence spending. This applies particularly to NATO members, but also to other Western allies. Despite its high debt levels, the US remains the most attractive market. Alongside conventional defence systems, however, new technologies are increasingly coming into focus, including drone warfare as well as systems designed to defend against drone attacks. Today, we take a look at the stocks of BAE Systems, Volatus Aerospace and AeroVironment.

A Firework Display of Returns: A Closer Look at the Dividend Standouts RTL Group, Mutares and RE Royalties
In volatile markets and amid economic uncertainty, dividends can be a rock in the storm. Yet investors do not necessarily have to rely on sluggish blue-chip stocks. Three companies from the small- and mid-cap segment are delivering a veritable return bonanza. The journey takes us from an established media group and an SDAX-listed turnaround specialist to a Canadian pioneer in renewable energy: At RTL, the acquisition of Sky Deutschland and a now-profitable streaming business are providing fresh momentum. Mutares selectively acquires loss-making divisions from major corporations and transforms them into reliable sources of returns for shareholders. And RE Royalties, with a dividend yield of more than 10%, outshines both—while a discreet sale process is taking place behind the scenes that could provide investors with an additional substantial takeover premium.

The New Power in the Skies: Volatus Aerospace, Airbus and OHB in a Stock Analysis
The war in Ukraine has shown just how fundamentally drones, satellites and autonomous systems are transforming modern warfare. At the same time, Europe and Canada are seeking to reduce their dependence on the US and China for security-critical technologies. It is not just established aerospace companies that stand to benefit from this trend. Volatus Aerospace, a small Canadian provider, is also positioning itself in this future-oriented market. Add to that Airbus, the European heavyweight, and OHB, a speculative bet on Europe's sovereignty in space. We take a closer look at these three aerospace specialists in our stock analysis.

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.

DroneShield, Volatus Aerospace, Kratos Defense: Those Protecting the Airspace Are Reaping the Benefits of the New Budgets
A single drone can bring an airport to a standstill. The failed drone attack on Leipzig/Halle Airport in August 2026 sent shockwaves through Berlin, Brussels and Washington. The incident has jolted policymakers into action. The German government is preparing a package of measures against sabotage, and between January and September 2026, contracts for drone defense totaling more than USD 53 billion were publicly announced worldwide. What was niche technology yesterday is now moving squarely into defense budgets. We therefore take a look at three companies that detect and defend against drones and protect mobile targets: DroneShield, Volatus Aerospace and Kratos Defense.

Defence Stocks Ride the NATO Wave: Boeing, Volatus, Dassault, RTX and DroneShield in Focus
Since Russia's initial actions in Central Europe, the European Union has faced a massive wave of rearmament driven by new NATO requirements, giving the defence industry a significant boost. EU Defence Commissioner Andrius Kubilius called for an unprecedented expansion of European capabilities in Brussels to match Russia's enormous production capacity. To achieve this goal, the EU is aiming to produce up to 10 million state-of-the-art FPV drones and 130,000 jet-powered drones annually. In addition, the defence industry is expected to roll out about 1,700 ballistic missiles per year. Industry giants such as Boeing and Dassault are likely to benefit significantly from this massive technological rearmament initiative. At the same time, specialized drone pioneers like Volatus and DroneShield are stepping into the spotlight as demand for unmanned systems and their countermeasures rises dramatically. A newly formed drone alliance between the EU and Ukraine is now set to accelerate the development of these next-generation systems massively. Which stocks could see the biggest gains?

GE Aerospace, Strategic Resources, BASF: Supply Chains Are Becoming a Billion-Dollar Market
Defence, aviation, energy infrastructure, and high-tech are driving demand for specialty metals and high-performance materials. At the same time, concerns in the West are growing about dependence on a handful of supplier countries for critical raw materials and industrial inputs. As a result, billions are no longer flowing solely into new factories but increasingly into securing entire supply chains. Anyone who owns, processes, or uses raw materials to produce indispensable components is taking centre stage strategically.

Tungsten: The Showstopper in Fragile Supply Chains? Rheinmetall, Almonty Industries and Airbus in Focus
The Middle East conflict is entering a new phase. Meanwhile, surging oil prices are putting the global economy under significant pressure and bringing strategic industries such as defense and aerospace into the spotlight. Rheinmetall and Airbus are not only grappling with geopolitical risks but also striving to maintain stable supply chains for urgently needed critical metals. In addition to copper, tungsten is gaining particular importance. This extremely hard, heat-resistant metal is indispensable for wear-resistant tools, special alloys, and numerous applications in the defence and aerospace industries. While ongoing tensions continue to drive up commodity prices, investors should look beyond the oil market to the key metals that will secure Europe's industrial future. Our focus is therefore on tungsten supplier Almonty, which is stepping up its game with new sourcing routes in Africa. A clear list of priorities makes sense!

A Breakout That Was Predicted: How AI Is Leading Volatus Aerospace, SoftBank, and SAP Out of Their Downward Trends
Three broken downward trends, one common catalyst: artificial intelligence. For Volatus Aerospace, SoftBank, and SAP, the chart picture looks completely different from what it did just a few weeks ago—and in all three cases, there is a strong fundamental story behind it. The Canadian drone specialist is securing major new contracts from the defence sector, the Japanese investment holding company is benefiting from the upcoming Anthropic IPO, and the German software giant is proving with strong cloud figures that it should be counted among the AI winners rather than its victims. Three completely different business models, three trend reversals—and the question of how much potential these stocks still hold.
