DRONESHIELD IN TURBULENCE – CLEAR RUNWAY FOR VOLATUS AEROSPACE AND RED CAT HOLDINGS

  • hightech
  • aerospace
  • geopolitics

A crash landing is dragging down the entire drone industry. When DroneShield's stock slipped on Tuesday despite what were actually strong numbers, other stocks in this young, forward-looking sector also came under pressure—even though their businesses have little to do with the Australian company's problems. This is precisely where a massive opportunity could lie for investors—at least if analysts are to be believed. The experts' price targets signal more than 100% upside potential for Volatus Aerospace and Red Cat Holdings.

Deutz, Jungheinrich, and Almonty: Where Investors Can Find Real Opportunities in the Market Right Now

  • Tungsten
  • Defense
  • CriticalMetals
  • geopolitics

The European industrial landscape is currently noticeably fragmented, which presents investors with difficult decisions about which stocks will perform well and which will perform poorly. While it has never been easy to make the right choice, as established, long-standing German corporations grapple with rising material costs, intense price pressure, and, in some cases, the aftermath of internal conflicts, interest is increasingly shifting toward companies in strategic niche markets, including the commodities and defense sectors. The stocks of Deutz and Jungheinrich reflect the current challenges facing the broader mechanical engineering sector, which is suffering from noticeable margin pressure despite solid order intake. Defense, however, is a buzzword that could boost the performance of one or two stocks in that sector—if handled skillfully. At the same time, the spotlight is on commodity stocks that are benefiting from global geopolitical upheavals. Almonty Industries, in particular, is drawing attention due to an exciting consolidation pattern on the charts. Can this tungsten heavyweight soon regain its former strength? This report examines the current situation of the three stocks and highlights where real opportunities might now be emerging!

Helsing IPO in 2027? Hensoldt Expands Drone Partnership as First Hydrogen Eyes Robotics Re-Rating

Could Helsing go public as early as next year? The defence technology company is currently valued at a whopping USD 18 billion. To justify that valuation, Helsing is developing, among other things, the CA-1 Europa autonomous combat aircraft. Hensoldt is supporting this effort, and the partnership was recently expanded. Meanwhile, First Hydrogen is broadening its business model. CEO Balraj Mann increasingly views autonomous systems as a key technology in light of changes in the defence, security, and disaster response sectors. By building in-house AI expertise, the company aims to further develop its UGV program for autonomous navigation, situational awareness, and counter-drone capabilities, while simultaneously expanding its strategy at the intersection of clean energy, mobility, and robotics. If successful, these initiatives could provide the catalyst for a re-rating of the company's shares.

Oversold? Kostolany Buy Signals Emerge for Rheinmetall, Lahontan Gold and Coinbase

  • Mining

  • Defense
  • crypto
  • Bitcoin

Hopes for a lasting ceasefire between the US and Iran are driving stock prices higher. Oil prices are falling, and inflation concerns are easing. Even in such a supportive environment, however, investors should avoid buying indiscriminately. Legendary investor André Kostolany coined the rule: when prices ignore bad news, panic selling has ended. In other words, those who wanted to sell have already done so. This pattern now appears to be emerging in three very different stocks. The German defence contractor Rheinmetall, the Canadian exploration company Lahontan Gold, and the US crypto platform Coinbase have all retreated significantly from their respective highs. Yet, each has recently absorbed negative news without suffering further meaningful declines—potentially signalling that sentiment has begun to stabilize.

  • Commodities
  • rally

Commodity stocks have lost significant ground following the recent market correction—even though the fundamental outlook for many companies has continued to improve. Rising demand for tungsten, copper, and other strategic metals, driven by AI, defense, the energy transition, and digitalization, is meeting with tight supply. For long-term investors, this pullback could therefore present an attractive entry opportunity. Companies with advanced projects, strong balance sheets, and rising production are now back in the spotlight.

Turnaround Stocks with Up to 200% Upside? Renk, Eckert & Ziegler and Power Metallic Mines in Focus

  • PGMs
  • Copper
  • Electrification
  • Defense
  • Healthcare

Renk's shares have fallen by around 50% since October 2025. Has this created an attractive entry opportunity? Jefferies certainly believes so, assigning the stock a fair value of EUR 60. The company's upcoming half-year results are expected to be strong, with analysts anticipating an improvement in second-quarter margins. The company has reported operational success in the US. Power Metallic Mines could be on the verge of a strong rally. Copper, one of the world's most sought-after metals, is a key component of the company's world-class polymetallic deposit in Canada. Analysts see nearly 200% upside potential, while several important catalysts are expected in the near future. Meanwhile, Eckert & Ziegler has been in a downtrend for the past year. The market entry of a new competitor has weighed on the shares, but analysts believe investors' concerns are overdone.

Buy Recommendations for Almonty, Micron, and TKMS! Defense, Commodities, and Semiconductors with Upside Potential!

  • Defense

  • Commodities
  • Tungsten
  • hightech

Compelling buying opportunities are emerging across several sectors. In commodities, Almonty Industries stands out as it ramps up production at its tungsten mine in South Korea, with revenue and earnings expected to accelerate sharply in the second half of the year. Analysts forecast a net profit of CAD 854.6 million next year, implying a forward P/E ratio of just 4.34—a valuation many consider too low for the only significant Western tungsten supplier. Analysts recommend buying. TKMS appears well positioned among the struggling defense companies. Analysts highlight its substantial order backlog, which is expected to provide strong earnings visibility well into the 2040s. Micron remains a higher-risk opportunity. Following its historic share price rally, investors are concerned about potential overcapacity. Micron is also investing billions, but analysts remain reassuring.

China's Export Restrictions: German Industry Must Invest in Raw Materials. How VW and Rheinmetall Respond & Why Aspermont Could Benefit

  • Electromobility

For decades, raw materials were commodities in the truest sense of the word—interchangeable goods purchased at the lowest possible price. But in recent years, security of supply has evolved from a procurement issue into a decisive factor for the survival of Western industry. Depending on the sector, shortages can threaten entire business models. To reduce the risks posed by geopolitical tensions, volatile commodity prices and increasingly stringent sustainability requirements, industrial companies are taking a much closer look at their raw material supply chains. Some are investing directly in mining projects, while others are forming strategic partnerships. In either case, access to reliable information on mining projects and the conditions across the value chain is essential for assessing supply risks. Aspermont, a specialist provider of mining and commodities intelligence, could be well positioned to benefit from this shift.
