Frequentis, Parrot, and Volatus Aerospace under the microscope: A hidden gem from Canada is reshuffling the deck
Drones have long been more than just a technological trend - they have become a geopolitical factor, and the stock market is reacting accordingly. While Austrian security specialist Frequentis, valued at billions, is already firmly in the sights of institutional investors, French micro-drone pioneer Parrot and Canadian full-service provider Volatus Aerospace are engaged in an exciting race for investor favor. Volatus, previously little known in Germany, has transformed itself from a restructuring case to a growth star in a remarkably short time with government backing, a promising NATO contract, and inclusion in the prestigious "TSX Venture 50" list. Parrot has apparently reached the break-even point, but is leaving investors in the dark until the end of March. Those who make the right choice now could benefit from one of the most exciting investment themes of the decade – but the differences between the three candidates are greater than they appear at first glance.

New valuation level ahead? How Volatus Aerospace is rising to become a system supplier in the shadow of DroneShield and AgEagle Aerial Systems
The threat to critical infrastructure and national borders is completely reshaping the budgets of Western governments: today's wars are no longer fought with tanks, but with unmanned aerial systems and intelligent surveillance technology. Canada has responded to this reality with a new defense industry strategy that aims to end its dependence on foreign military equipment. The Ottawa government's stated goal is to award 70% of future procurement contracts to domestic companies, thereby creating demand for local producers. In this environment, Volatus Aerospace is transforming itself from a service provider to a systemically important technology producer for national security.

Benefiting from the security and energy transition with high-performance batteries: BYD, NEO Battery Materials, and DroneShield
Western countries are facing a major challenge. NATO is calling for record defense spending, while electromobility continues to advance unabated. Germany alone will have a defense budget of over EUR 108 billion in 2026, while global demand for high-performance batteries is set to more than double by 2030. This pincer movement of security constraints and the energy transition is overwhelming traditional industries, but it is opening a window of opportunity for specialized technology leaders who master both worlds. In this tense environment, three companies are catching the attention of investors: BYD, NEO Battery Materials, and DroneShield.

DroneShield responds! Globex Mining steals the show from Barrick Mining and MP Materials!
DroneShield has finally responded. A new COO is expected to boost investor confidence and sales. Will that be enough? Globex Mining is currently being discovered by investors. The mining incubator enables risk-reduced investment in the field of resource exploration. In addition to numerous exciting gold projects, successes have also recently been reported in critical raw materials such as antimony and rare earths. The stock has started the new year strongly, outperforming companies like Barrick Mining and MP Materials. The latter stock is currently showing noticeable weakness, while Barrick was unable to trigger a rally with its actually strong figures for 2025. The next ace up its sleeve is an IPO. But its eternal rival, Newmont, is causing problems.

Setback, consolidation, and a new contender: Rheinmetall, DroneShield, and NEO Battery Materials
Drones are the future in both the military and civilian sectors. Rheinmetall also wants to be part of this. But Germany's largest defense contractor, known for its heavy military equipment, has recently had to swallow a disappointment. In contrast, NEO Battery Materials could finally take off. In recent months, the company has caused a stir with orders for its revolutionary batteries for applications in drones, robotics, and electromobility. Now it has brought two well-known corporations on board. And what about DroneShield? Things have quietened down somewhat for the high flyer from 2025. But there are opportunities for orders in its home country.

Breaking news! This innovation is transforming the battery industry – What it means for NEO Battery Materials, DroneShield, and BYD
Artificial intelligence, electromobility, and drones are some of the topics that are highly favoured by investors. However, one crucial link in the chain is too often neglected: powerful, flexible battery solutions from Western industrialized countries. China's dominance must be broken as quickly as possible. With a new generation of cells, NEO Battery Materials could now shake up the market. The potential is huge, but this is not yet reflected in the market capitalization of around CAD 100 million.

DroneShield disappoints! Plug Power fights for survival! American Atomics stock poised for an overdue rally?!
Tech analyst Pip Klöckner paints a clear picture for 2026: he expects NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang to become the world's most influential energy lobbyist. Without additional, reliable energy, data centers cannot operate - and without data centers, no one will buy NVIDIA chips. Meta is already fully committed to nuclear energy, underlining how critical stable baseload power has become in the AI race. American Atomics stands to benefit from this development. After all, uranium is needed regardless of who builds the nuclear power plants or ultimately wins the AI arms race. Importantly, American Atomics is developing several promising projects directly in the United States. The AI-driven energy boom has also lifted hydrogen stocks in the past, including Plug Power, but the euphoria has faded, and the Copmany is now fighting for survival. And what about DroneShield? The drone defense specialist's shares have taken a sharp hit in recent days. Was the sell-off triggered by the latest quarterly figures, or is something else at play?

The witch dance continues! Another 100% with TKMS, DroneShield, Pasinex, or the new CSG?
The stock markets are extremely volatile, so it is time to take a closer look at some of the key players. Many investors are now focusing on a scenario of ongoing war. Hardly anyone expects real peace to be achieved, as a recent survey shows: 72% of those surveyed do not expect any of the existing trouble spots to enter a state of peace in 2026. This means that public skepticism is higher than the current "super summit talks" between the superpowers around the globe would suggest. In addition to defense stocks, commodity stocks also remain in a state of constant battle. Scarce metals appear to be becoming even scarcer, judging by the spot price. Anyone looking at the precarious situation in Europe should take a closer look at Pasinex Resources' zinc project. Here are a few tips on how to generate a 100% return.

The next major battery story is not being written in China – it is being led by the TSMC clone, NEO Battery Materials
The tech revolution has a blind spot. While billions are being poured into the development of AI, advanced robotics, and autonomous systems, one fundamental problem often remains unresolved: energy storage. The performance of these high-tech devices is determined by their weakest component - and increasingly that component is the battery. China dominates the mass market, but a critical gap is emerging: namely, demand for flexible, high-performance, non-Chinese battery solutions. This is precisely the vacuum NEO Battery Materials is stepping into with an approach that mirrors the semiconductor industry.

Trump 3.0 and gold at USD 5,000! Critical metals continue to skyrocket with Almonty, Rheinmetall, DroneShield, and CSG
US President Donald Trump appeared on the international stage in Davos and triggered mixed reactions. With his well-known "America First" slogan, the most powerful man in the world once again made clear which priorities dominate from a US perspective. For the international community, this reinforces concerns about transatlantic reliability and the growing realization that, in a crisis, countries may increasingly have to rely on their own capabilities when dealing with dictatorships and autocratic systems. This development exemplifies the geopolitical turning point already described by Klaus Schwab in Davos in 2020 as "The Great Reset." Geopolitical uncertainty is giving rise to constraints and unsettled investors. They are increasingly turning to true values, which are believed to lie in the commodities sector. Against this backdrop, critical metals, gold, and silver remain firmly in focus – a trend that has been gaining momentum for weeks. Here are a few tips for risk-conscious investors.
