Newmont, DRC Gold and Agnico Eagle – China's Gold Imports Already Exceed Last Year's Total
China imported more than 1,000 metric tons of gold from January through August. That is more than in all of 2025, according to the latest Chinese customs data. The central bank in Beijing has also been increasing its gold reserves for 22 consecutive months. Demand from the Far East is particularly beneficial for the major producers. Explorers are looking for tomorrow's supplies in the northeast of the DRC, for example, where Kibali, one of Africa's largest gold mines, operates. Companies that want to grow need their own projects in the pipeline. Today, we are looking at three gold companies: Newmont, DRC Gold and Agnico Eagle.

A Sensational Development in the M&A Carousel: Rheinmetall, BASF and Lahontan Gold
A sensational development is looming in the German chemical industry. BASF is considering acquiring speciality chemicals company Evonik. The Ludwigshafen-based company would thereby significantly expand its speciality chemicals business. Evonik has reacted cautiously. Analysts have responded positively. But some question marks remain. A small but strategically interesting acquisition is in the works in the gold sector. Lahontan Gold plans to acquire Emergent Metals outright, expanding its position in Nevada's Walker Lane gold district. Is this a move to prepare for a US IPO? Most recently, Lahontan increased its resource estimate and reaffirmed its goal of building a mine next year. And what about Rheinmetall? Its stock has fallen below EUR 1,000 again. The company is working to address its "dependence on the Bundeswehr" and its "old and heavy military equipment."

Nevada Reshuffles: Barrick, Newmont and SSR Mining Pursue New Projects – Phenom Resources in the Middle of It
Gold is more relevant than ever. Persistent geopolitical risks and inflation concerns are driving investors increasingly toward the traditional safe haven. After a record high above USD 5,500 in January, the price of an ounce of gold traded around USD 4,150 at the end of September despite the recent correction, still firmly at historically elevated levels. For established producers in the US state of Nevada, this price environment is generating substantial cash flows, while operating costs for ongoing mining operations are also rising. This is forcing major mining companies to rethink their strategies and is creating new opportunities for agile exploration companies operating in the same region.

Vonovia Under Pressure from Expropriation? Lahontan Gold and Coinbase as Inflation Opportunities for Investors
Rising inflation typically drives up demand for real estate, but this sector is currently facing political pressure. In Berlin, the Left Party wants to expropriate large private housing portfolios. Approximately 240,000 apartments would be affected. Nothing has been decided yet, but the debate is weighing on the market. For Vonovia, it is becoming clear what makes "concrete gold" vulnerable: regulation, compensation disputes, interest burdens and rent debates. Those who want to protect their wealth are looking for alternatives. Gold is often seen as a hedge against crisis. As an up-and-coming gold producer, Lahontan Gold could benefit from the high price of gold. Coinbase, meanwhile, offers access to the growing crypto trading market without actually owning Bitcoin. Three bets, three opportunities—we take a closer look.

Exciting Stock Stories and Plenty of Upside Potential: Lahontan Gold, United Internet and Generac in Focus
Exciting stock stories sometimes begin where investors least expect them—in an old gold mine, the expansion of a telecom network or the market for backup generators.

Meanwhile, German MDAX-listed United Internet aims to finally turn a profit again after years of heavy spending. And US generator specialist Generac has gained a customer in Amazon that could significantly accelerate its power business. We take a closer look at these three promising stocks and the latest news driving their investment stories.

Get Set for the Next Gold Rally: DRC Gold, Barrick Mining and Newmont in Focus
Amid persistent inflation concerns and monetary policy turmoil, gold continues to serve as a safe haven and has hit an all-time high this year. Central banks are using weaker prices to make substantial purchases. With gold trading above USD 4,000 per ounce, producers such as Newmont and Barrick Mining are posting record profits. But exploration companies are also worth watching, as these second- and third-tier stocks could offer significant leverage on gold price movements during prolonged bull markets. DRC Gold fits into this category with an exciting gold project in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Where are the biggest opportunities?

Artemis Gold, Desert Gold and i-80 Gold – Gold Rush 2.0 Begins
Gold has long since evolved from a mere crisis hedge into a strategic asset. Central banks are expanding their holdings, geopolitical tensions are driving the demand for independent reserves, and investors are seeking protection against inflation and currency risks. According to the World Gold Council, 89% of the reserve managers surveyed expect central bank gold holdings to rise over the next twelve months. At the same time, mining supply is responding only slowly despite high prices. This could further intensify the competition for large deposits.

Gold Under the Spell of Interest Rates: Opportunities in Lundin Gold, Kobo Resources and Barrick Mining
Higher or lower interest rates? The Federal Reserve has responded to pressure from the bond markets and raised interest rates for the first time in many years. This is putting enormous strain on the US budget and could also further weigh on an already struggling real estate market. Gold investors initially reacted negatively, with the price correcting. However, this is likely to be only a temporary setback. Savvy central bankers, such as those at the People's Bank of China, are taking advantage of current prices to make substantial purchases. Buying activity in gold ETFs is also picking up. The current correction in the gold price should therefore be viewed primarily as an opportunity for stock investors looking at promising stocks. Today, we take a closer look at Lundin Gold, Kobo Resources and Barrick Mining.

Will Gold Save Us From the AI Craze? NASDAQ Stocks Reeling: D-Wave, SpaceX, Nvidia and Lahontan Gold in Focus
The current AI hype is propelling tech giants to dizzying heights, but behind the glittering facade of algorithms, doubts are growing about their fundamental valuations. When industry leader Nvidia starts to falter, it reflects the nervous turmoil of a market that vacillates between astronomical visions of the future and real-world profits. Even quantum computing pioneers like D-Wave Systems are grappling with the harsh reality that visionary technology does not automatically guarantee immediate profits in the billions. Meanwhile, the space company SpaceX demonstrates just how heavily private capital is tied up in high-risk, promising large-scale projects that are extremely vulnerable to macroeconomic shocks. Amid this digital gold rush, driven by immense energy consumption and impatient shareholders, the NASDAQ tech bubble is in danger of bursting. Interest rates, which have been surging for weeks, could trigger a significant correction. No wonder, then, that more and more investors are turning away from intangible code and turning to humanity's oldest safety net: GOLD. Those who do not want to be swept away by the AI frenzy are fleeing to where substance is still tangible.

Printing, Sports and Gold: Heidelberger Druck, Adidas and Desert Gold Deserve Your Attention Now
Today, we are looking at three companies that deserve your full attention. Adidas is demonstrating operational strength, yet the market may be viewing the company with undue skepticism. Heidelberger Druck is moving partly away from its traditional printing business and is also eyeing the defence and security sector, where the business outlook appears more promising. Canadian mining company Desert Gold, meanwhile, is approaching a decisive step toward its first gold production. Together, these developments create an interesting mix of industries and warrant a closer look at these three stocks. Because between printing presses, sports shoes and gold bars lie opportunities that investors should know about.
