Gold Mining Stocks: Time to Buy? Barrick Mining, B2Gold and Desert Gold in Focus
Should you buy gold mining stocks now? Gold expert Markus Bußler sees the recent pullback as an attractive entry opportunity. After a rally of about 50%, the GDX mining ETF had fallen about 18% from its high. This has brought it back into the technical buy zone between approximately USD 84 and USD 88. At these levels, the expert believes the risk-reward ratio once again favours buying. A similar technical setup had already led him to a positive assessment in July. The market subsequently posted strong gains. The current negative sentiment therefore does not deter him. Stocks such as Barrick Mining, B2Gold and Desert Gold could benefit from this development.

Equinox Gold, Lahontan Gold, B2Gold – The Hunt for the Next Million Ounces
Gold remains one of the big winners in the commodities markets. High prices not only boost producers' profits but also increase the value of undeveloped deposits. Deposits that previously received little attention can suddenly become economically attractive. Consequently, mining companies are once again investing heavily in exploration. In this context, it is increasingly important to identify companies that can expand their resources, discover new deposits, and bring additional ounces into production as cost-effectively as possible.

thyssenkrupp, Strategic Resources, Salzgitter – Steel Stocks That Could Benefit from the Industry's Transformation
Europe's steel industry is currently transforming. Since July 1, the EU has been protecting its steel market with a duty-free quota of 18.345 million metric tonnes and a 50% tariff on all imports exceeding that amount. Starting October 1, importers must also provide proof of where they smelted and cast their steel. This gives manufacturers breathing room to replace blast furnaces with direct reduction plants. However, these plants require high-grade iron ore of the appropriate quality. For those who view steel, raw materials, and restructuring as a unified whole, the new situation could work in their favour. We are therefore taking a closer look at thyssenkrupp, Strategic Resources and Salzgitter.

Micron, Kobo Resources, MP Materials: Stocks with Upcoming Catalysts in AI, Gold and Rare Earths
The stock market trades on expectations. Between now and the end of the year, three companies across different market segments have upcoming milestones that could reset expectations. Artificial intelligence has significantly fueled demand for memory chips. The quarterly results on September 30 will show how much of that demand is here to stay. A gold explorer is set to release its first mineral resource estimate, revealing how much of the precious metal lies underground. As of January 1, the Pentagon's procurement rules for magnets will become stricter, which could benefit manufacturers with supply chains outside China. We are therefore taking a closer look at Micron Technology, Kobo Resources and MP Materials.

Smartbroker Holding, Aspermont, Goldgroup – Data Is the New Gold
Information is becoming increasingly valuable in the capital markets. Investors must filter out the key signals from a flood of share prices, corporate announcements and geopolitical developments. At the same time, artificial intelligence is transforming the way information is processed and monetized. This is particularly evident in the commodities sector. Billions are flowing into gold, critical metals and new mining projects. Anyone who can reach investors, access exclusive data, or mobilize capital for attractive projects sits at a crucial intersection of this boom.

West Africa's Gold Rush: How Desert Gold Is Forging Its Own Path Alongside Barrick Mining and B2Gold in Mali
The price of gold keeps hitting new record highs, yet a state of emergency continues to prevail in key mining regions such as West Africa. While the precious metal promises high margins on the global market, established mining companies in Mali increasingly face government crackdowns. Although these developments are not halting day-to-day operations, they do require strong negotiating skills from the major producers. It is precisely in this operational environment that agile Africa experts are positioning themselves with smart strategies. We shine a spotlight on Barrick, B2Gold and Desert Gold.

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.

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.

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.
