Uranium Energy, Almonty Industries, Bayer – Rebound after correction

  • Mining
  • Tungsten
  • Uranium
  • Pharma
  • Defense

The peace summit between the US and Russia is already history and yielded few results in terms of ending the war in Ukraine. While the indices remained stable last week, short, sharp setbacks in selected stocks could offer interesting entry opportunities at the start of the week. Uncertainty also continues to prevail with regard to tariffs. Although the tariffs for India and China have been postponed, a final agreement is still a long way off.

War and raw material shortages = Your profit: How Rheinmetall, Almonty Industries, and RENK are now cashing in

  • Mining
  • Tungsten
  • Defense
  • Investments

The global security architecture is collapsing, and with it, the rules of the game in the defense industry are changing. While superpowers like the US are pumping billions into strategic raw materials to break critical import dependencies, resource security is becoming the new currency of military strength. Tungsten, rare earths, and high-performance metals are now decisive factors in technological sovereignty. Those who take advantage of this shift stand to benefit from unprecedented government initiatives. Three companies are positioning themselves decisively in this area: Rheinmetall, Almonty Industries, and RENK.

BOMBSHELL! RENK, Bayer, Desert Gold! Who has the potential to multiply?

  • Mining
  • Gold
  • Defense
  • Pharma

Bombshell at RENK! Order intake is exploding! Revenue and earnings are also already up significantly. After Rheinmetall and Hensoldt posted rather disappointing figures, the defense boom appears to be reaching the tank transmission specialist. The stock is reacting strongly. Meanwhile, the share price of gold explorer Desert Gold has not yet responded to the recent Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA). This is surprising, as the returns are high - even with the conservative gold price assumptions. In an interview with analysts, the CEO once again explains the opportunities. GBC Research sees potential for multiplication here. At Bayer, investors have recently been focusing more on litigation risks in the US than on upside potential. However, the latest news from the pharmaceutical division is driving the Leverkusen-based company's shares up again. Is the weak phase finally over?

Plug Power, Pure Hydrogen, RENK – The order books are filling up

The stock markets are celebrating as if there were no tomorrow. But caution is advised! The ambitious valuations of many companies are likely to result in a sharp correction in the near future. Stock picking is currently the order of the day, because we saw how quickly high prices can evaporate into thin air at the beginning of April when Donald Trump unveiled his tariff measures. But there are still some undiscovered gems out there. In the hydrogen sector in particular, a previously unknown company has made a name for itself with two future-oriented orders.

50% upside potential – And what lies beyond? Almonty, Hensoldt, and MP Materials

  • Mining
  • Tungsten
  • Defense

This is a week of truth for Ukraine. However, there are many indications that no resolution will be reached by Friday: the global power blocs continue to face off against each other, and security will continue to dominate the international agenda. More and more investors are realizing this and understand that defense is much more than just a passing trend. In line with this shift in perception, several respected research firms have recently published studies on Almonty Industries. As the only significant Western tungsten producer, Almonty plays a crucial strategic role, particularly as the US will ban the use of Chinese tungsten for military purposes starting in 2027. Here, we outline what this means for investors today and why the conditions for Almonty are unique.

Crash in the defense sector? Geopolitical conflicts drive up metal prices! Rheinmetall, Sranan Gold, Hensoldt, and RENK

  • Mining
  • Gold
  • Commodities
  • Defense

Strategic metals are a decisive factor in the economic strength and military power of entire nations. International hotspots like the Middle East, Ukraine and, most recently, Africa are exacerbating shortages, as long-established trade routes can collapse abruptly. The high concentration of production in a few countries increases the vulnerability of supply chains to political intervention. Export bans, sanctions or targeted supply restrictions by China or Russia can quickly lead to critical supply shortages. In this environment, precious metals like gold, which is currently trading at historic price levels, are becoming even more important for investors, not least against the backdrop of record-high government debt worldwide. Those who act flexibly can benefit from this commodity dynamic. The long-running favorites of recent months in the defense sector now appear to be consolidating. Where to put the money?

Rheinmetall & Hensoldt disappoint! The real WINNERS of the DEFENSE BOOM: Alzchem and Almonty!

  • Mining
  • Tungsten
  • Defense
  • Investments

Rheinmetall and Hensoldt have disappointed stock market investors with their quarterly figures. Growth, profitability, and, in particular, order intake are lagging behind high expectations. Are the second-tier companies perhaps the real winners of the defense boom? Namely, the suppliers that can deliver to virtually every defense contractor. Take Almonty, for example. The tungsten specialist is inundated with inquiries and is set to begin operations at the largest Western mine later this year. Defense contractors can only dream of such profit margins. Analysts see more than 50% upside potential. Alzchem is also doing good business with numerous defense companies. Among other things, the German company supplies specialty chemicals for explosives. A new major shareholder is causing a stir. However, not all analysts see room for further price gains.

The billion-dollar business! Arms and defense stocks in vogue – Volatus Aerospace, DroneShield, Leonardo, and Airbus

The European defense sector is set to experience significant growth over the next five years. Analysts anticipate average growth of 5 to 8% per annum. The European defense market is expected to grow from around EUR 125 billion to around EUR 170 billion by 2030. A key driver: EU funding is increasing massively, including through the Readiness 2030 program, which will provide up to EUR 800 billion in additional funding, including EUR 150 billion in low-interest loans for the joint procurement of drones, air defense systems, and artillery. In addition, NATO countries have committed to spending 5% of their GDP on defense by 2035, which will require additional investments of approximately EUR 320 billion per year. Which companies stand to benefit?

Tungsten crisis hits defense boom: Why Almonty Industries, Rheinmetall, and RENK Group stand to benefit

  • Tungsten
  • Defense
  • Investments

Geopolitical upheavals are shaking global supply chains. As the trade dispute between the US and China reaches new heights, dependence on strategic raw materials is becoming an existential threat. Tungsten, which is indispensable for defense equipment and high-tech, is in extremely short supply due to Chinese export restrictions. At the same time, global conflicts are fueling a defense boom that is causing demand and prices to skyrocket. Investors are now turning to companies that offer security of supply or technologies that are crucial in warfare. Three players are coming to the fore in this tense environment: Almonty Industries, Rheinmetall, and the RENK Group.

It is earnings season, with over 200 quarterly reports coming in from around the world every day. Investors are focusing heavily on revenue growth at defense companies. This is because they should benefit significantly from the lavish contracts awarded by NATO and other defense-oriented countries. The environment remains unstable, and geopolitically, anything is possible. However, defense stocks have often risen so far that the hoped-for earnings figures for 2027 to 2030 are already reflected in today's prices. But the rally continues! After a sharp correction at Almonty Industries, many are delighted to have a cheaper entry point into the tungsten expert, as strategic metals are high on the shopping list, especially in the defense sector. The problem is that they are scarce and difficult to obtain. Where are the opportunities for investors?
