Is a company valued on the stock market for what it produces—or for what investors want to see in it? At Apple, the high-margin services business is fueling heated debates over whether the core of its success story actually lies more in software or hardware. Volatus Aerospace, originally a Canadian drone service provider, is on the verge of exactly this leap: moving away from low-margin flight operations toward a software and AI platform for drone countermeasures and defence technology. And innoscripta demonstrates the growth rates possible in the software industry. A look at three very different companies and the question of where the biggest valuation gap between business model and share price lies.

Drones, Energy Crisis and NASDAQ! DroneShield, HPQ Silicon, Siemens Energy and Nordex in Focus

  • geopolitics
  • cleantech
  • decarbonization

All quiet on the western front! Whether it is war, bankruptcies, or new tariffs, the party goes on! The drone sector, booming thanks to increased defence spending, stands in stark contrast to the simmering EU energy crisis, which continues to pose major challenges for Brussels. Counter-drone specialist DroneShield is experiencing a massive surge in demand and orders in the field of electronic warfare, yet its share price is falling significantly. Canadian company HPQ Silicon is also benefiting from the West's need to independently establish critical supply chains for high-purity silicon and innovative battery materials. Siemens Energy also sits at the epicentre of the infrastructure transition, with its historically full order books serving as an unshakable engine of growth amid the energy crunch. This sustained rebound is flanked by Hamburg-based wind power pioneer Nordex, which is reporting double-digit margin improvements. This compelling combination of high-tech defence, clean energy generation, and raw material sovereignty is attracting substantial capital directly into investors' coffers. We take a closer look at four future-oriented sector favourites.

Plug Power Shows Light and Shadow! Siemens Energy Back Above EUR 200? Drone Potential at HPQ Silicon!

The US is under increasing pressure when it comes to military drones. China and Iran are ruthlessly exposing the US's need to catch up. Washington is pushing to build its own supply chains. HPQ Silicon could benefit from this. Several potential customers in the drone and defence sectors are already testing the company's advanced battery technology. The stock hasn't yet drawn much attention. Siemens Energy is a long-term performer in the AI boom. The company once again delivered strong results last quarter. Analysts believe the stock could break through the EUR 200 mark. There are also positive signs in Plug Power's quarterly report. But the big question remains: how will liquidity be secured until the company turns a profit?

High jet fuel prices, airspace closures due to war or wildfires, and geopolitical factors are making life difficult for companies across the entire aviation sector. Despite these circumstances, however, the markets for drones and civil aviation continue to grow. On the one hand, people want to continue traveling and flying. On the other hand, markets are opening up for both new and established companies with the emergence of redefined flying objects. That is why we are taking a look today at the stocks of Airbus, Volatus Aerospace, and Lufthansa.

Dividend Yield or Growth Potential? The Opportunities Offered by Bayer, BASF, and Volatus Aerospace

  • geopolitics

The war in Ukraine remains a source of uncertainty that continues to weigh on global markets. Russia and Ukraine are continuing their attacks on infrastructure and industrial facilities, while diplomatic solutions are still nowhere in sight. For investors, this means that energy prices, commodity markets, and security-related sectors remain vulnerable to sudden news developments. In particular, defence and aerospace stocks, as well as companies focused on autonomous and security-related technologies, including drones, stand to benefit from rising defence budgets and the growing need for technological independence. Investors entering the market at this time should therefore consider this underlying geopolitical tension as a permanent factor in their risk assessment. Against this backdrop, we take a closer look at Bayer, BASF, and Volatus today.

Germany in the Crosshairs: Regulations Slow Down Hensoldt and DroneShield – Is Volatus Aerospace Heading for a Boom in Orders?

  • Drones

  • hightech

A threat is increasingly looming over industrial facilities in Germany, keeping European security authorities on edge: drones. While unmanned aerial vehicles could still be dismissed as harmless toys just a few years ago, the targeted surveillance of critical infrastructure using professional drones paints a completely different picture today. In 2023 alone, authorities recorded at least 446 drone sightings over German military sites, while the number of incidents involving critical infrastructure rose to well over 1,000 by the end of 2025, according to the Federal Criminal Police Office. When unmanned systems spy on Bundeswehr facilities unnoticed or collect precise data on gas pipelines, caution is warranted—and this was true even before the incident involving a drone loaded with explosives at Leipzig Airport. We explore potential solutions and highlight exciting companies.

Rheinmetall Challenges TKMS! Renk Shares Jump 20%, While Volatus Aerospace Unveils New Drone Application

  • Drones
  • Defense
  • geopolitics

Renk shares have gained about 20% in value in just a few days. Yesterday, the company released its half-year results, which delivered a mixed picture. The key question now is whether the recent rally still has room to run. Meanwhile, DroneShield shares have surged by nearly 30% in recent trading. Even so, Volatus Aerospace has outperformed so far in 2026, and the drone specialist's shares may still offer additional upside potential. The latest announcement shows that the Canadian company's growth opportunities are strong not only in the military sector but also in the civilian sector. In the future, Volatus plans to deploy autonomous heavy-lift aircraft for wildfire suppression, disaster response, and a range of other government applications across Canada, further strengthening its position in the rapidly expanding market for commercial and public-sector drone services.
