Canada's Billion-Dollar Drone Race: How Volatus Aerospace and Draganfly Are Challenging US Giant AeroVironment
To reduce its dependence on defence imports, the Canadian government under Prime Minister Carney is pushing to build its own drone industry, prioritizing domestic suppliers over future US imports. This reorientation is forcing domestic manufacturers to take action: For both civilian and military contractors, the key question now is who can reliably scale up the planned mass production. We take a look at this development and its key players.

Commodities in Overdrive: BHP and Rio Tinto Cash In While Almonty Targets Critical Metals in Greenland
What investors are witnessing in the markets now amounts to an almost tectonic shift. Energy and commodity prices are surging, while interest rates have climbed to levels not seen in seven years. The East is embracing protectionism, while the US-led West is taking an increasingly assertive stance. In this capitalist imperialism of deep pockets, the US president's territorial claims over Greenland, administered by Denmark, have added another layer of geopolitical tension. These trends extend beyond the traditional mining business and are causing significant turmoil in futures markets. The geopolitical fault line runs right through the Arctic, where Greenland, thanks to gigantic deposits such as the Tanbreez project, is in the crosshairs of the Pentagon and Western security agencies. China continues to control large parts of the global supply chain, but the strategic agreement between Washington and Copenhagen is erecting a powerful barrier. At the same time, tungsten prices on the world market are soaring, outpacing almost all other critical minerals. This indispensable industrial metal, essential for the defense industry and the AI chip sector, is subject to drastic export restrictions. These supply bottlenecks are driving Western buyers to the brink of despair. A wild mix of megalomania, panic, and sabre-rattling. Where do the opportunities lie for investors with strong nerves?

Defence Boom Meets Critical Metals: Rheinmetall, Renk, Globex Mining and Hensoldt in Focus
The geopolitical turning point is bringing two sectors to the forefront: defence and critical metals. One cannot exist without the other! Consequently, this fateful alliance has triggered an unprecedented supercycle in the financial markets that extends far beyond the traditional high-tech and defence conglomerates. European defence heavyweights such as Rheinmetall, Renk, and sensor specialist Hensoldt are enjoying historic order backlogs and benefiting from government rearmament programs worth billions. This is now bringing the fundamental basis of this boom sharply into focus for investors. After all, producing defence systems of all kinds depends entirely on a secure supply of strategic and critical metals. However, massive demand for military hardware is clashing with global supply chains under extreme strain from raw material shortages and the accelerating subsidy race in the West. This is where exploration and licensing companies like Globex Mining come into their own—they possess a diversified portfolio of strategic properties in politically stable regions and secure the foundations of industrial independence. Since no modern air defence system or military microchip network can exist without copper, silver, nickel, or rare earth elements, the mining and defence technology sectors are inextricably linked on the stock market. For forward-thinking investors, this symbiosis offers rare leverage.

Between a Breach of Trust, a Defence Boom and a Recovery – innoscripta, Suedzucker and Volatus Aerospace
Three completely different trends are currently converging in the markets. Government bond yields have risen sharply, inflation continues to climb, and the major stock indices have been consolidating in recent weeks. Meanwhile, one company is struggling to regain trust following regulatory searches, another group is benefiting from growing demand for drone technology within the NATO sphere, while an established industrial stock is coming under selling pressure despite an improved outlook. These cases illustrate just how strongly share prices can react to legal uncertainty, geopolitical trends, operational progress and inflated expectations.

Portfolio Booster Wanted? Deutz, TKMS and DRC Gold – Three Stocks With Potential
The stock markets are buzzing, and many investors are already fearing early signs of a crash—but we are not there yet, because investors are always looking for new opportunities. Sometimes the best opportunities are hiding in plain sight; sometimes, you have to dig deeper. Today, we have done exactly that and identified three stocks worth a closer look. First up is Deutz, which is reinventing itself and pushing into alternative drive technologies. Next, we dive into TKMS, where defence-sector spending is fueling fresh market interest and driving sharp share price moves. Finally, DRC Gold offers exposure to a gold exploration story that could be developing into something much bigger beneath the radar of the major mining companies. Three very different companies, three distinct market stories — and potentially three ways to give a portfolio fresh momentum. The key, as always, is timing.

RTX, Almonty Industries, Elmet Group – This Is Fundamental for the West
Tungsten is increasingly becoming a strategic raw material in the new arms race. Missiles, engines, high-temperature alloys, and many other applications rely on this extremely hard, heat-resistant metal. At the same time, China dominates large parts of the global supply chain. For the US and its allies, an independent supply is therefore increasingly becoming a matter of national security. Billions are flowing into new defense production capacities, strategic stockpiles, and Western raw material projects. This opens a market for producers outside China, with significance that extends far beyond traditional commodity cycles.

RENK Under Pressure! Buy Signals for TKMS and Almonty
Alarm at Renk. The stock has slipped below EUR 40. It has now more than halved in value since its all-time high in October 2025. An analyst's comment sparked renewed unease. The comment warned of a potentially disappointing third quarter of 2026. Almonty shares are recommended as a "Buy". Analysts expect the tungsten producer to significantly increase revenue and profits in the coming years. Revenue is projected to exceed USD 1 billion in 2028. Almonty is then expected to be the largest Western supplier of this critical raw material. Analysts also recommend buying TKMS shares. A record order is taking shape. The order book is already full. The stock, however, is struggling.

BioNTech: A Setback or a Breakthrough? Micron and Volatus Aerospace Impress with Positive News Flow!
Contrarian investors, take note! An exciting opportunity may currently be emerging at Volatus Aerospace. Drone stocks continue to struggle on the stock market. However, the industry's long-term outlook remains positive in both the military and civilian sectors. While Volatus shares are consolidating, positive news continues to flow with new orders and technological advances. Micron Technology has also delivered strong news. Its record figures for 2026 exceeded estimates. The outlook is also positive. Can this dispel investors' skepticism regarding the sustainability of growth and margins? A sign of weakness or a bold move? This question arises with BioNTech in light of the permanent closure of three sites. The media response has been largely critical. However, there are also positive comments.
