Sell-off or healthy correction? Quality stocks in focus: SAP, D-Wave, and Aspermont
Market activity has picked up noticeably in recent days. Upswing here, sharp pullback there! Volatility is back, driven by political statements and economic uncertainties. While the sudden 30% crash in silver is unsettling commodity investors, and SAP shares are undergoing a significant correction, many investors are fleeing to defensive sectors and tangible assets. Crypto markets remain in a downward spiral, and the perennial topic of AI is being viewed with increasing selectivity. Against this backdrop, Australian media and commodities specialist Aspermont is leveraging its long-established network and data assets to accelerate growth using AI. At the same time, it remains to be seen whether there is still hope for higher valuations after the sell-off at SAP and D-Wave. Time to get out the magnifying glass, Sherlock Holmes style.

In the eye of the commodities storm: How Aspermont, with its 190-year history, is becoming the data center of the mining industry
Gold is breaking records, copper is driving the energy transition, and critical raw materials such as rare earths are becoming a geopolitical currency. While investors are considering direct commodity investments, a company that has transformed itself into an indispensable architect of this new era is operating in the background: Aspermont. Once a traditional specialist publisher, the Company has quietly evolved into a data-driven control center for global mining. In a market characterized by resource nationalism and supply chain stress, reliable information is the most valuable commodity. Aspermont delivers just that, not as a cyclical player, but as a provider of critical infrastructure for decision-making. This transformation is complete, financially sound, and meets with a perfect environment.

PRICE EUPHORIA at OHB! Rheinmetall takes on Airbus and Elon Musk? D-Wave completes acquisition! Finexity shares take off!
Could Rheinmetall, together with OHB, soon challenge Elon Musk's Starlink and Airbus? At any rate, OHB's share price reacted with a jump of more than 50%. Finexity shares have also surged. Following its pilot project with a savings bank, the Company has brought another exciting partner on board for its marketplace for tokenized assets. The price jump is likely to be just the beginning, as the market capitalization remains low. By contrast, D-Wave shares are showing no signs of slowing down. The Company has successfully completed an important acquisition, which is expected to be a milestone in strengthening its leading position in the quantum computing space.

The battle for resources is being fought in the data room: How Aspermont Uses AI to Boost the Returns of Rio Tinto, Alamos Gold & Co.
It is the greatest paradox of the modern economy: while demand for copper, lithium, and rare earths is exploding due to trade wars and the insatiable appetite of the AI industry, building a new mine has never been more difficult. Large mining corporations are increasingly failing not because of geology, but because of bureaucracy, environmental regulations, and, in remote regions of the world, geopolitical pitfalls. In this new era, where a legally binding permit is often more valuable than spectacular drilling results, validated information is becoming the most critical resource in the commodities sector. Analyst firms such as McKinsey and the International Energy Agency (IEA) warn of a massive structural supply deficit, as the development of new mines in the West often requires more than a decade of legal wrangling. It is precisely in this area of tension that the Australian media and tech company Aspermont is positioning itself as the decisive problem solver. With a treasure trove of data spanning centuries of industrial history and a new alliance with industry giant Rio Tinto, the Company is transforming itself from a media company into a kind of "Google of mining" – offering investors an opportunity based on intelligence rather than luck.

AI and the uranium comeback: How American Atomics is becoming the winner of the energy transition and what that has to do with Meta Platforms and Infineon
The era of artificial intelligence (AI) is not only an era of enormous productivity gains, but above all an era of infrastructure and gigantic energy consumption. While the last decade was dominated by software, the future will be all about hardware. Generative AI and the path toward artificial general intelligence (AGI) are transforming data from an intangible asset into a massive consumer of power. Analysts at Goldman Sachs estimate that investments by major US tech companies in energy infrastructure could reach the astronomical sum of over USD 500 billion by 2027. This new reality is forcing a two-pronged energy strategy: on the one hand, the massive expansion of storage and efficiency technologies, and on the other, the inevitable return to the only CO2-free energy source that reliably provides base load – nuclear power. We explain what tech titan Meta Platforms and chip manufacturer Infineon have to do with this development and why American Atomics is considered a highly speculative but strategically brilliant bet on the uranium comeback.

The Netflix of car washing: How Mister Car Wash is reinventing the market, and WashTec is sounding the charge against Dover
The North American vehicle care market is currently undergoing a development that, in its radical consequences, is reminiscent of the transformation of the software industry ten years ago. The old model of weather-dependent individual car washes, where revenue falls when it rains, is being replaced by the predictable profitability of the "subscription economy." This trend is being driven by the phenomenal success of the US chain Mister Car Wash, which has proven that Americans are willing to sign up for a monthly subscription for clean cars, similar to streaming services. But this gold rush is putting massive technological pressure on gas station operators and independent car washes. They have to upgrade to stay competitive. In this battle for infrastructure supremacy, German hidden champion WashTec is now challenging US market leader Dover Corporation on its home turf. The Augsburg-based company supplies precisely the digital technology that enables the broader market to copy Mister Car Wash's successful model – and could thus shift the balance of power in the industry in the long term.
