Rising Rates, ESG & Private Equity: Financing in Extreme Times – Vonovia, RE Royalties, and Mutares
War, destruction, reconstruction. These are all issues closely tied to financing. Clearly, no one is currently thinking about how to rebuild the destroyed buildings, bridges, and power plants in Ukraine, the Gaza Strip, or Iran. First, peace must return before new investments in conflict zones can even be considered. The US likely already has dedicated plans for Ukraine, as well as for the Gaza Strip. For the companies RE Royalties, Vonovia, and Mutares, financing questions arise on a different level. Here, return requirements are linked to each individual investment. Often, however, it is not the interest rate of the financing instrument that matters, but rather the attractiveness of the specific project. This is highly interesting for investors who view a sufficient return as the primary criterion for their investment. The charts of these key players are swinging wildly back and forth, creating opportunities for agile investors!

From pipeline inspections to defense contracts to drone defense: Why Volatus Aerospace Is Undervalued
Some stocks have two sides. Volatus Aerospace operates a dual-engine business model: a commercial services division generating stable, recurring revenue from energy and infrastructure inspections, and a rapidly expanding defense segment benefiting from NATO contracts and Canada's evolving defense strategy. While many drone companies either sell only hardware or offer only services, Volatus has combined both under one roof. And with a decisive advantage: NATO is right there in the cockpit.

ENTRY OPPORTUNITY in the Drone Sector? NEO Battery Materials Tests in a Military Border Zone
An intriguing entry opportunity is currently emerging in the drone sector with NEO Battery Materials. Amid recent market volatility, shares of this specialist in batteries for drones, robotics, and electric mobility have declined by more than 20%. At the same time, geopolitical conflicts, most recently in the Middle East, continue to highlight the growing strategic importance of drones. NEO's batteries, manufactured in South Korea, have demonstrated in practical tests the potential to significantly extend flight time by up to 100%, while also offering faster charging capabilities. In a recent interview, the company outlined the technological advantages behind these improvements. There is also notable operational progress: NEO is collaborating with the South Korean military to further develop its products, and this is happening at what is arguably one of the world's most critical borders. It can really only be a matter of time before the stock takes off again.

Over 100% Upside Potential? Antimony Resources Positioned to Benefit from Rising Defense Demand
Created and published on behalf of Antimony Resources Corp.
According to analyst estimates, Antimony Resources could offer significant upside potential, with price targets implying gains of over 100%. The stock has recently shown notable relative strength, trading near all-time highs while broader markets have come under pressure. There are good reasons for this. Antimony is not only urgently needed for ammunition but is also essential for other key industries. Antimony Resources is currently advancing a promising project in Canada, with an initial resource estimate expected in a few weeks. This could lead to a revaluation of the stock. Analysts recommend buying with a price target of EUR 1.90.

Tanks, Chips, Missiles: China Tightens the Tap—Almonty Steps Into the Gap
The commodities world has a new overlooked topic. While everyone is discussing helium, a perfect storm is brewing around a far more critical metal: tungsten. It is found in armor-piercing ammunition, rocket nozzles, and every modern memory chip. The defense industry, in particular, urgently needs supplies due to ongoing wars. China is turning off the export tap, prices are skyrocketing, and the West's strategic reserves are dwindling. Almonty Industries, which has been operating unnoticed underground for years, is stepping into this very vacuum. Now its largest mine is coming online, right in the middle of a market desperately searching for alternatives.

Almonty Industries – Strategic Tungsten Opportunity After Market Correction
In many industries, tungsten is emerging as one of the most strategically important raw materials of our time. Due to its high melting point, demand for this critical metal is high across a wide range of sectors, from the defense industry and the aerospace sector to the sport of darts. However, its global availability is currently under serious threat. An unprecedented imbalance between supply and demand, as well as geopolitical tensions, most notably the strict export controls by China, have recently led to a massive shortage and a price surge to as high as USD 2,995 per metric ton unit. Without tungsten, essential technological developments risk coming to a standstill.

GBC Targets CAD 3.00 for Antimony Resources, Poised to Secure Western Supply
Created and published on behalf of Antimony Resources Corp.
Imagine a raw material that hardly anyone is aware of, yet is found in every piece of ammunition, every night-vision device, and every solar panel. This gray semimetal is called antimony, and the Western world sources it almost exclusively from China and Russia. After Beijing curtailed exports in late 2024, the price of antimony skyrocketed to over USD 60,000 per ton. So the crucial question is: who will supply the West if it wants to become less dependent on China? Antimony Resources could provide the answer with its Bald Hill project in New Brunswick.

Iran Crisis: Billions in Weapons and Technology – Are Rheinmetall, RENK, and Group Eleven Set to Soar?
Later today, the next—already postponed—ultimatum regarding the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz could begin to unfold with significant consequences. US President Donald Trump has made it unmistakably clear on his own social media platform that the West will no longer tolerate the restriction or threat to international trade routes. For investors, this underscores a critical reality: the supply of industrial goods is increasingly fragile and may require fundamental restructuring over the long term. Ongoing conflicts, particularly in the Middle East, are forcing a rethink of global sourcing strategies for raw materials and industrial inputs. It is widely understood that building alternative supply chains will take years—if not decades. Europe, in particular, which is already under pressure, must address structural deficits across multiple sectors. For policymakers, the message is clear: decisive action is required. Meanwhile, Group Eleven Resources holds land rights covering more than 500 sq km with mineralization in critical metals—positioning it within this broader strategic shift.

Is a stock surge on the horizon? Volatus Aerospace: A Compelling Entry Point After the Correction?
The world has changed radically in recent years, and we find ourselves in the midst of a new era in which unmanned aerial systems and advanced defense technologies are playing an increasingly central role in modern conflict dynamics. Companies like Volatus Aerospace are positioning themselves within this evolving landscape and providing the answers and solutions to the pressing questions of our time. Anyone who follows the news sees almost daily just how important protection against airborne threats has become. Drones are now indispensable in modern armed conflicts and, at the same time, pose an enormous danger if one does not have the right defenses. Volatus recognized these signs of the times early on and has positioned itself as a partner for NATO countries and industrial heavyweights. A look at the current balance sheet and stock price suggests that we may be facing an investment opportunity here that should not be dismissed so easily.

Snap, NEO Battery, Saab – Something Big Is Brewing Here
The recent correction in one of the most exciting markets of the future is opening up new opportunities for forward-thinking investors. While many stocks have come under pressure, the structural growth drivers remain intact: rising demand for high-performance batteries, rapidly growing drone and robotics markets, and geopolitically driven investments in secure supply chains. Technologies centered on silicon anodes, in particular, could deliver the next leap in efficiency. Those who think countercyclically now could benefit disproportionately from the next upward move.
