Almonty Industries – Main beneficiary of the tungsten shock
The price of tungsten has quadrupled within a year. China dominates over 80% of production, is cutting subsidies, tightening export rules, and struggling with declining ore grades. At the same time, demand from the defense, semiconductor, and data center sectors continues to drive the market. The West is looking for alternatives, and one of the largest mines outside China is about to ramp up production. Could this give rise to a strategic raw materials player that could serve up to 40% of non-Chinese demand?

New valuation level ahead? How Volatus Aerospace is rising to become a system supplier in the shadow of DroneShield and AgEagle Aerial Systems
The threat to critical infrastructure and national borders is completely reshaping the budgets of Western governments: today's wars are no longer fought with tanks, but with unmanned aerial systems and intelligent surveillance technology. Canada has responded to this reality with a new defense industry strategy that aims to end its dependence on foreign military equipment. The Ottawa government's stated goal is to award 70% of future procurement contracts to domestic companies, thereby creating demand for local producers. In this environment, Volatus Aerospace is transforming itself from a service provider to a systemically important technology producer for national security.

The WORLD needs this RAW MATERIAL! Antimony Resources with multiplication potential! Use the Consolidation to Enter!
While the world talks about gold, silver, and rare earths, there is a real shortage and thus an opportunity for price gains in this niche. While tungsten is already getting more attention, antimony has yet to make its breakthrough on the capital market. This also applies to Antimony Resources. The company is currently developing a high-quality project in North America, where the dependence on this raw material has been recognized and is being consistently addressed. This may be the largest antimony deposit on the continent. At the same time, Antimony Resources is currently valued at only around EUR 50 million, is facing important milestones in the current year, and its shares are already being actively traded on Tradegate in Germany. The current consolidation offers a very interesting opportunity to enter or add to existing positions.

Commodity rush at Almonty Industries, sell-off at SAP and Gerresheimer – where it is worth getting in now
Three companies, two setbacks – and one strategic opportunity. While Almonty Industries is successfully ramping up its tungsten project in South Korea and positioning itself as a Western commodity pillar, SAP and Gerresheimer have recently experienced difficult stock market phases. The cloud company fell well short of its quarterly targets and lost 17%, while the pharmaceutical equipment supplier is struggling with its third consecutive decline in revenue despite booming GLP-1 therapies. Almonty, SAP, and Gerresheimer are prime examples of how different strategic importance and market volatility can be at present. We analyze the current situations.

Shock for industry: How China's export ban is bringing the West to its knees – Antimony Resources, Rheinmetall, and thyssenkrupp
The global commodities market is in turmoil. China's radical export ban on antimony triggered an unprecedented supply crisis in early 2026, causing prices for this strategic metal to skyrocket. While Western industries fear for their production chains, a reorganization of supply routes is looming. This offers enormous opportunities for those who act now. In this tense environment, three companies that could not be more different are moving into the spotlight: Antimony Resources as a beacon of hope for new production capacities, Rheinmetall as a major buyer of defense technology, and thyssenkrupp as a manufacturing giant.

Nearly 200% upside potential! RENK, Nordex, and Power Metallic Mines shares under analyst review!
Analysts at Noble Capital Markets believe that Power Metallic Mines shares could rise by almost 200%. This is based on the Nisk project, which has developed from a nickel project into a world-class multi-metal project. Recent nearby drilling results suggest even greater potential. The planned IPO in the US could be an additional driver. Nordex shares are recommended as a "Buy" by mwb research. Although analysts are optimistic and see the wind turbine manufacturer on track operationally, the price target is disappointing. At RENK, the recent analyst call by management appears to have been convincing. Expectations for Q4 and the full year 2025 are likely to be met, unlike recently at Rheinmetall.

Unpredictable conflict dynamics turn tungsten into a strategic metal – Almonty moves into focus
The capital markets currently appear paradoxical: record highs for indices, unusually high volatility, and above all, a world order that is shifting faster than any valuation metric. Wars are back and here to stay, trade routes are becoming political and fragile, and sanctions are replacing diplomacy. In this environment, raw materials are once again becoming strategic weapons. While algorithms are still extrapolating growth rates, governments are already thinking about supply scenarios after the crash. In this tense environment, the logic of investing is changing. It is no longer just about supply and demand, but about access, control, and reliability. Who will deliver when the going gets tough? Who will decide who gets what and how much, and who might even be excluded? This is precisely where the major capital movements of the coming years will arise, often away from the familiar mega-caps. A metal that hardly anyone has paid attention to for years is suddenly becoming the focus of technological and military interest. And a company that has long flown under the radar is quietly becoming a strategic factor. Almonty Industries is an example of how geopolitics and capital markets are currently intertwining in new ways and creating dream returns for visionary investors.

RENK, Power Metallic, American Electric Power – These stocks offer explosive potential
Three trend industries are currently the focus of strategic investors: critical raw materials, energy infrastructure, and storage technologies. While geopolitical tensions are reshaping supply chains, the boom in artificial intelligence and electromobility is driving up demand for metals and power capacity. At the same time, decarbonization and grid stability require huge investments in long-term storage and modern infrastructure. Those who are well-positioned here could be on the verge of a structural growth spurt.

Dual return profile: How Antimony Resources combines the security of MP Materials with the potential of Albemarle
In the world of strategic raw materials, true giants often emerge out of necessity. When global supply chains break down, geopolitical alliances crumble, and national security is suddenly at stake, the capital market often responds with a radical revaluation of those companies that hold the strategic solutions. We have observed this phenomenon exemplified by MP Materials, which rose from obscurity to become the indispensable pillar of the American defense industry and delivered dream returns to investors as the only relevant US producer of rare earths. We have also seen this with Albemarle, which transformed itself from a specialized chemical company into the undisputed lithium king of electromobility when the world realized that without lithium, a transport revolution would be impossible.

Benefiting from the security and energy transition with high-performance batteries: BYD, NEO Battery Materials, and DroneShield
Western countries are facing a major challenge. NATO is calling for record defense spending, while electromobility continues to advance unabated. Germany alone will have a defense budget of over EUR 108 billion in 2026, while global demand for high-performance batteries is set to more than double by 2030. This pincer movement of security constraints and the energy transition is overwhelming traditional industries, but it is opening a window of opportunity for specialized technology leaders who master both worlds. In this tense environment, three companies are catching the attention of investors: BYD, NEO Battery Materials, and DroneShield.
