Gold Boom Thanks to the Peace Dividend: A Look at Barrick Mining, DRC Gold, and Agnico Eagle
The recent geopolitical easing in the Middle East is sending shockwaves through the energy markets, with welcome spillover effects for the gold mining industry. Falling oil prices are lowering mining companies' production costs and boosting profit margins even before the price of gold itself reacts. While the markets are still digesting the relief brought by the peace, the fundamental conditions for the industry are noticeably improving. We take a closer look at industry leader Barrick Mining, DRC Gold as a growth story in the African Gold Belt, and Agnico Eagle with its robust asset portfolio.

Is Tech Heading for a Correction? Intel and Marvell Technology Are Expensive – Could Lahontan Gold Be a Rotation Winner?
With tech stocks trading at historically high valuations, earnings power dwindling, and a noticeable slowdown in the AI boom, the US stock market appears to be signalling the end of the AI hype. While leading tech stocks are losing significant momentum, other sectors are becoming attractive again. Take gold, for example. Supported by persistently high central bank demand—global central banks purchased around 863 metric tons of gold in 2025, according to the World Gold Council—the precious metal is once again coming into focus as a safe haven. Renowned banks such as Deutsche Bank and JPMorgan are already forecasting a cyclical upswing for the precious metal to as high as USD 6,000 per ounce. This sector rotation particularly benefits undervalued exploration companies in politically stable regions. We present an exciting stock with a promising project in the US.

Rio Tinto, KSB, Desert Gold Ventures: Three Winners of the Commodity Supercycle
Commodity markets have performed strongly over the past two years. Despite recent corrections in gold and silver, precious metals remain in high demand. Copper, tungsten, and rare earths are also benefiting from a boom in demand that extends far beyond a typical economic cycle. The drivers include the energy transition, the global expansion of data centers, the electrification of industry, and rising defence spending. At the same time, the supply of strategic commodities is increasingly becoming a matter of national security. Three winners of the commodities supercycle are Rio Tinto, KSB, and Desert Gold Ventures. With stocks from the speculative, value, and infrastructure sectors, investors have three different ways to bet on one of the most exciting trends of the coming years.

Fact Check on Emerging Gold Producer Lahontan Gold – Is a Share Price Increase Inevitable?
Lahontan Gold is in the midst of a transformative journey. As this unfolds, significantly higher share prices are on the horizon. The Canadian company is following a tight schedule to bring its planned gold mine at the prime Nevada site into production by the end of 2027. Along the way, a rich and positive news flow is expected. Very soon, the updated mineral resource estimate and the updated preliminary economic assessment (PEA) should once again underscore the company's significant undervaluation. The latest drilling data confirms the potential to further increase the resource. This is due, on one hand, to the proven thickness of high-grade gold mineralization and, on the other, to the discovery of a previously unknown zone. The discrepancy between the company's fair value and its market potential presents opportunities for share price appreciation.

Lahontan Gold: Poised for a Revaluation This Year?
The gold market is currently overshadowed by the war in the Persian Gulf and SpaceX's IPO. Investors' focus has shifted. However, this presents opportunities for counter-cyclical investments. In the gold sector, valuations have fallen significantly in some cases. Yet the structural trends remain intact, as Citigroup recently noted in a detailed study. Accordingly, their commodities analysts confirmed their 6- to 12-month price target for gold at USD 5,000. The long-term upward trend is supported by structural changes such as ongoing de-dollarization, the shift in global supply chains and trade routes, and gold purchases by central banks worldwide. JPMorgan and Bank of America are even more bullish and see the price per ounce at USD 6,000 to USD 6,300 by year-end. Lahontan Gold is likely to benefit massively from these developments. The Canadians plan to begin construction of the historic Santa Fe Mine in Nevada as early as next year. On the way there, the stock should see a revaluation.

Pan American Silver, Strategic Resources, and AngloGold Ashanti: Three Strong Commodity Stocks for Your Portfolio
In the current market environment, with commodity prices correcting, it is worth taking a look at stable, high-growth companies in the sector. Many valuations have also come down due to the war in the Persian Gulf and the debate over interest rate hikes. Nevertheless, most companies are earning handsomely. The first quarter saw record cash flows and profits. In addition, many companies have streamlined their balance sheets in recent years and now have a net cash position. These are the perfect conditions for these stocks to take off again in the next upturn. That is why we are taking a look today at the stocks of Pan American Silver, Strategic Resources, and AngloGold Ashanti.

The Countdown to Mars is on: SpaceX, OHB, Rheinmetall, and Kobo Resources are Taking Off
Long-awaited, and now it has finally happened! We are talking about the IPO of the century from Elon Musk's empire: SpaceX. With a market capitalization of USD 2.2 trillion, the stock has joined the illustrious "MAG7" club after its first day of trading—it is now, so to speak, the "MAG8". Of the 22,000 employees, one in four has become a millionaire. There are 20 new billionaires from the founder's inner circle; even the operator of the SpaceX Campus Café is now worth USD 5 million. Elon has become the new messiah of the dollar, and the markets follow him with reverence. This once again highlights the fascination of "stocks" for the average person: anyone can obviously make it; you just have to be in the right place at the right time. Whether SpaceX's high valuation will still hold true in a few weeks now depends on the ETFs. They account for 30% of US stock market trading and will have to reflect the IPO valuation champion in their future weightings within the NASDAQ and Russell indices. Inclusion in the S&P is not expected until December. The catch: only 7% of the shares are freely tradable. What should investors pay attention to now?

Gold Sector in M&A Frenzy: Dwindling Reserves Drive B2Gold and Orezone – Hidden Gem: Desert Gold
Dwindling mineral reserves in low-risk regions, stagnating discovery rates, and increasingly complex permitting processes—the situation in the gold mining sector is forcing leading producers to act. Since developing new large-scale greenfield projects is associated with sharply rising costs, industry giants are increasingly shifting their focus to acquiring projects already at an advanced stage. According to surveys by the industry portal MiningBeacon, the gold sector accounted for over 40% of the total mining transaction volume in the first five months of 2026 alone, amounting to deals worth USD 41 billion. West African shear trends and established mining regions are therefore becoming target areas for resource-hungry corporations that need to utilize their processing capacities to full capacity.

Gold, Silver, Defence, AI, or the Nasdaq? SpaceX Heads for the US Indices – Defying Weakness with Lahontan Gold
A remarkable phenomenon is currently unfolding in the markets: virtually everything is weakening. From gold to silver, from high-tech to low-tech, whether AI or hydrogen—every sector is undergoing a correction. So far, however, the pullback remains modest when measured against the extraordinary gains achieved over the past 14 months following the tariff-driven sell-off triggered by Donald Trump. During that period, the Nasdaq effectively doubled. Traders know that a volatile interim low will now be reached, particularly over the summer, before the markets look forward to 2027 with renewed hope. This period needs to be bridged, and there may also be a need for hedging. Historically, gold has served this role well, often gaining value when other asset classes came under pressure. Yet gold itself has been one of the best-performing asset classes over the past two years, leading to some profit-taking here as well. Whether the S&P 500 can absorb additional heavyweights such as SpaceX, OpenAI, and Databricks following its historic rally remains to be seen. A fast-track inclusion of SpaceX into the S&P indices was reportedly rejected by S&P Dow Jones, while NASDAQ, Russell, and MSCI are set to list it within a few trading days. This should be exciting! Where are the tangible opportunities for investors?
