Drone stocks: Opportunities with Volatus Aerospace, DroneShield, and Rheinmetall
When drones appeared over several European airports in September and brought flight operations to a standstill, it came as a shock. The incidents revealed that Germany and many other Western countries are largely powerless against drones, as there are no defense mechanisms in place. Instead, representatives of the German Armed Forces and police are arguing over who is responsible for countering such threats – in Germany, there are even regulations governing who may defend against enemy threats and where. Meanwhile, the war in Ukraine continues – and with it, the drone war is evolving. It has long been clear that drones are essential as a deterrent and have become a core element of every modern army. We explain why Volatus Aerospace is well-positioned to benefit from the ongoing drone hype.

Winners in the tariff war: Almonty Industries, MP Materials, Bayer
Stock market turmoil on Friday: Donald Trump once again threatens to wield the tariff club. This came in response to China's announcement to tighten export controls on rare earths. Yet, there are also winners in the raw materials battle between the two superpowers. In recent months, the US government has invested in companies such as MP Materials, focusing so far on rare earths and lithium. Will tungsten be next? This critical metal has not been mined in the US for a long time, and Almonty would be the logical partner to change that. Notably, while US stocks lost ground, in some cases heavily, on Friday, Almonty shares recovered significantly from their intraday lows.

War increasingly likely? This supplier is improving drones: AeroVironment, NEO Battery Materials and Kratos Defense
"Is war against Putin inevitable?" This was the headline in BILD yesterday in response to statements by military historian Sönke Neitzel on the ARD talk show Maischberger. According to Neitzel, Putin has already paved the way for war with his recent escalations. The historian asks: "If Putin is determined – many in NATO say so, and I would agree – will he wait until we can say that even the German Armed Forces now have enough drones? No, probably not." Neitzel believes that, due to the current poor equipment of many NATO countries, a military conflict between NATO and Russia could occur within the next three years. Investments in drones are therefore urgently needed. We present a battery supplier that offers tailor-made technology for drones, capable of drastically reducing the dependence of Western militaries on batteries from China.

On the stock market, AI and defense remain key drivers. With surprising ease, the price of gold has broken through the USD 4,000 mark - could USD 5,000 be next? Barrick Mining is also continuing its rally, while those looking for undiscovered gems amid this hype should take a closer look at Kobo Resources. The junior explorer could soon become a potential takeover target. In the defense sector, the capital market is waiting for major orders. One such order could now come from the German government. Hensoldt stands among the likely beneficiaries.

New opportunities in GOLD and defense! Are Steyr Motors and AJN Resources better than RENK? Profit-taking at First Majestic?
The rally in defense, gold, and silver is underway! Is it time to take profits and take a closer look at latecomers like Steyr Motors and AJN Resources? Steyr is digesting its 200% rally since March and continues to deliver positive news. AJN Resources shares have catch-up potential in the gold sector. In the vicinity of a mega mine, the Company's project shows potential for several million ounces of gold. Exciting results are expected in the coming weeks. And what are the core investments RENK, Barrick Mining, and First Majestic Silver doing? Are gains of up to 380% enough?

Drone warfare and armament – Caution with Rheinmetall, Hensoldt, and thyssenkrupp, but 150% upside with Antimony Resources
Recent geopolitical events impressively highlight the critical need for strategic metals. While tungsten producer Almonty has surged by over 1,000%, risk-aware investors are now turning their attention to Antimony Resources. With properties that are indispensable for ammunition, electronics, and protection systems, antimony is emerging as a key strategic metal for modern defense and high-tech industries. The heavy reliance of Western nations on a few producing countries, such as China, is increasingly bringing security of supply into the focus of geopolitical debates. Without a stable supply chain, there is a risk of bottlenecks that threaten not only defense capabilities but also technological sovereignty. Investors and industry players are therefore increasingly seeking alternative sources and recycling solutions to meet rising demand in a sustainable manner. Meanwhile, defense stocks are currently consolidating at a high level. Is the rally now entering its final phase?

Aspermont, Palantir, RENK – AI sets the pace. Where is the next run?
International stock markets are booming. The Dow Jones recently surpassed 47,000 points, seemingly unaffected by the US government shutdown. The topic of artificial intelligence (AI) continues to be the focus of investor interest, and recent company announcements are causing a stir. Japanese electronics giant Hitachi and ChatGPT provider OpenAI are partnering to build AI infrastructure and global data centers. Meanwhile, Fujitsu and leading AI chip manufacturer Nvidia are expanding their collaboration and plan to jointly develop a platform that uses AI in a targeted manner for specific industries, such as healthcare and robotics. In view of the AI boom, it is becoming increasingly compelling to explore second- and third-tier stocks that could benefit from the surge in innovation and investor interest.

NATO shock boosts DroneShield and Volatus Aerospace! Major order and Buy recommendation for Nordex!
The drone pure plays, DroneShield and Volatus Aerospace, have ended their consolidation with price explosions. In just a few days, both stocks rose by more than 50%. Volatus also shines with a follow-up order from NATO. Before the last order was fully delivered, a repeat order was already placed. In addition, a million-dollar order was also secured in the civilian sector. Drone defense is proving challenging in Germany. Why is that? How does DroneShield score? Nordex is also one of the price winners of the year, recently securing a crucial large order. Analysts recommend buying the stock.
