AeroVironment, HPQ Silicon, BAE Systems: It Is All About the Battery

  • Silicon
  • Batteries
  • Drones
  • Technology
  • Defense

Drones are fundamentally changing modern warfare. What used to cost millions can now be reconnoitered or countered using comparatively inexpensive unmanned systems. Western nations are ramping up their procurement efforts accordingly. But as demand grows, so do the technical challenges. Range, payload, and endurance depend crucially on the power supply. More powerful batteries are thus becoming a key technology in the drone boom. Not only could the major defense contractors benefit from this, but also suppliers that have received little attention until now.

Arms Boom Meets Steel Revolution: A New Era for Salzgitter, Strategic Resources and SSAB

  • decarbonization
  • Defense

Europe is rearming. Above all, the continent needs steel to do so. Tanks, frigates and submarines consume quantities of material that are pushing existing production facilities to their limits. At the same time, a quieter but equally consequential transformation is underway: the shift toward more climate-friendly steelmaking processes. Whoever controls the raw material supply chains behind this transition holds the key to a story that the market has yet to price in. This is where Strategic Resources, a still largely undiscovered small-cap, has all the pieces in place. The Canadian company delivers exactly what German industry heavyweights such as Salzgitter are desperately seeking. Swedish steel and armored steel monopolist SSAB has already begun exploring the opportunity.

Above the Clouds: Ryanair, Volatus Aerospace and Air France-KLM in Focus

  • Aviation

Freedom is not always limitless above the clouds. High jet fuel prices are putting pressure on airlines' businesses, while rising ticket prices have made summer vacations in 2026 significantly more expensive. This is especially true in Europe, where jet fuel capacity remains limited. Nevertheless, the market is currently showing signs of easing. Since the outbreak of the war, many airline stocks have recovered. It is therefore worth taking a closer look at the shares of low-cost carrier Ryanair and the premium carrier Air France-KLM. For investors who would rather avoid the poor predictability of airline stocks, there is still an opportunity to look to the skies by considering shares of Volatus Aerospace.

Tanks, missiles, radar systems, and AI chips require high-performance materials. One of the most strategically important is tungsten. China accounts for more than 80% of global production and has already tightened its export controls. At the same time, Europe and the US are ramping up their defense production. This is driving not only demand but also political pressure to establish independent supply chains. As a result, Western tungsten projects are gaining strategic importance.

For months, Deutsche Telekom, Almonty Industries, and Abbott Laboratories were headed in only one direction: down. Then the quarterly results came in—and with them, a breakthrough. For Deutsche Telekom and Almonty, a combination of growth and share buybacks sparked the initial rally; for Abbott, it was the confirmation that two negative one-time effects were only temporary. A sustained breakout from the downtrend is now a reality for all three stocks. How far is the road back to previous highs, and where do analysts even see potential for new all-time highs?
