Price Catastrophe and Despair at SAP and BYD - Almonty Industries On the Verge of a Technical Breakout
The stock market is currently facing challenging times, with SAP and BYD among the companies struggling with significant internal and external headwinds. Investors are struggling to maintain their composure regarding software giant SAP after negative industry news pushed the share price to a multi-year low. A sense of crisis also prevails at Chinese automaker BYD, as declining sales and looming EU punitive tariffs weigh heavily on its operations. However, the picture is quite different beyond these two stocks in the critical raw materials sector. Here, Almonty Industries positions itself as a reliable and emerging player in an increasingly geopolitically uncertain world. With foresight, fresh capital, and substantial resource potential, the company presents a highly compelling alternative investment opportunity. Read on to find out in detail why these three stocks may be worth a closer look right now.

Siemens Energy, dynaCERT, BYD: The Next Wave of Growth Is Already Underway
The global energy and technology transition is rapidly gaining momentum. AI data centers, electric mobility, and stricter climate regulations are driving demand for electricity, critical raw materials, and efficient energy solutions to new record levels. At the same time, modern technologies for reducing emissions, smart energy grids, and high-performance battery systems are opening up growth markets worth billions. Companies that position themselves early in these future-oriented industries could benefit disproportionately from a long-term investment boom.

Copper Is Hot! Analysts See Nearly 200% Upside for Power Metallic Mines – How Severe Is the Impact on BMW and BYD?
More and more studies are warning of a massive future copper shortage. Forecasts are becoming increasingly alarming, to the point where the International Energy Agency's estimate of a 5.9-million-ton supply gap by 2030 already appears conservative. Building a mine takes 15 to 20 years, and supply is struggling to keep pace with rapidly growing demand. The expansion of modern power grids, the rapid growth of data centers, AI, and the ongoing shift toward electric mobility are exacerbating the situation. This is already evident in the record-high prices of this industrial metal. While automakers such as BMW and BYD face increasing cost pressures, Power Metallic Mines appears to be on the winning side. The Canadian company controls one of the largest polymetallic deposits in North America, characterized by high-grade copper mineralization and first-class metallurgy. According to analysts, the shares could nearly triple in value in the future.

Gold and Critical Metals in Buy Mode: In the Fast Lane with Barrick, BYD, VW, and North Arrow Minerals!
When it comes to critical metals and gold, Africa is a sought-after continent among investors. West Africa, in particular, has developed into one of the world's most significant gold-producing regions over the past two decades, with Barrick Mining—through its mines in Mali—playing a key role in unlocking the region's enormous geological potential. Deposits such as Loulo-Gounkoto are now among the company's most productive gold mines and impressively demonstrate the value that can be created when promising greenstone belts are systematically explored and developed. Barrick's success story also illustrates that many of today's major gold discoveries are no longer being made in traditional mining regions, but rather in areas that have seen little exploration. This realization is bringing the South African country of Botswana into the spotlight of global metals strategists. The politically stable country not only possesses significant deposits of critical metals such as copper, nickel, and rare battery metals, but also harbours geological structures comparable to the productive gold belts of West Africa. Investors are taking notice.

BYD in Formula 1? Defence and drone ambitions at Daimler Truck, Mercedes, and HPQ Silicon
Watch out for BYD! Is the Chinese electric vehicle manufacturer spreading itself too thin? In its home market, the price war is causing profits to plummet. At the same time, the company is lagging behind its own goals in its European expansion. There are problems in Turkey, the fast-charging network will cost billions, and whether the rumoured entry into Formula 1 makes sense is open to debate. In that light, HPQ Silicon's expansion seems more logical. After the company's new battery generation already impressed in drone tests, it has now unveiled an entire drone propulsion system with partner Novacium at Eurosatory 2026 in Paris. Daimler Truck and Mercedes are now also eyeing the defence sector. Will drones soon be taking off from the roof of the G-Class?

Electric Vehicle Sales Are Booming: Taking a Closer Look at Albemarle, Rock Tech Lithium and BYD
The electric vehicle market is booming and may have received an additional boost from the conflict in the Persian Gulf. However, the global picture remains mixed. The strongest growth is taking place in the world's largest automotive market: China. There, the electrification rate has now surpassed the 50% threshold. More than one in two newly registered vehicles in the country is a plug-in. EV growth of 10-15% is forecast for this year. Germany, the world's third-largest automotive market, has also returned to a dynamic growth path following a weak 2024. Sales figures for 2025 stood at more than half a million electric vehicles. If plug-in hybrids are included, total sales exceed 800,000 units, representing an increase of over 40%. The United States, the world's second-largest automotive market, remains the exception, showing weaker development, largely due to political headwinds from Washington. The share of newly sold electric vehicles in the overall market there is estimated at just 7%-8%. Globally, however, battery-powered vehicles remain on the fast track to success, accounting for roughly 25% of the market. In addition, a new sales record was reached in 2025, with more than 20 million electric vehicles sold worldwide, up 20% year over year. This momentum is reason enough to take another look at attractive stocks in the sector. Today, we examine the shares of Albemarle, Rock Tech Lithium, and BYD.

How to Capitalize on the Billion-Dollar Market for Zero-Emission Commercial Vehicles with BYD, Pure One, and Plug Power
In late December 2026, DACHSER will become the first customer worldwide to put the Mercedes-Benz NextGenH2 truck, powered by liquid hydrogen, on the road. At the same time, WattEV in California ordered 370 Tesla Semis—the largest single purchase of electric trucks in the state. And in April 2026, Pure One delivered two 32-ton hydrogen-powered concrete mixers to Heidelberg Materials for acceptance. These three announcements from recent weeks prove that the zero-emission commercial vehicle market is taking off. This is precisely where BYD, Pure One, and Plug Power are positioning themselves with different but highly profitable strategies.

Lithium Makes a Comeback: Processing Is a Bottleneck for Mercedes-Benz and Siemens Energy – Rock Tech Lithium Breaks the Monopoly
With scarce raw material reserves in the West, a more restrictive trade policy, and China still holding a monopoly on raw material processing, the situation surrounding battery-grade raw materials calls for action. After the price of lithium hit a preliminary low in June 2025, "white gold" saw a robust recovery of around 180% by February 2026, reaching a high of USD 10.48 per pound. The real bottleneck, however, is not extraction, but the chemical refinement into high-purity lithium hydroxide monohydrate for battery applications. Since a comprehensive investigation by the US Department of Commerce now classifies lithium supply security as a matter of national security, the development of resilient domestic processing infrastructure has moved to the forefront of industry priorities. The German-Canadian company Rock Tech Lithium plays a crucial role.

SUPERINVESTOR ERIC SPROTT TAKES A STAKE IN POWER METALLIC MINES! BAE SYSTEMS AND BMW CAN BREATHE EASIER
Mining legend Eric Sprott is investing CAD 2.0 million in the Canadian exploration company Power Metallic Mines, sending a signal that resonates far beyond the mining sector. Copper, nickel, cobalt, and platinum group metals, which lie dormant in the ground in Québec, are in high demand by both the defence industry and automotive manufacturers. For companies such as BAE Systems and BMW, these critical raw materials are indispensable. Three companies, one supply chain—and a race the West cannot afford to lose.
