GOLD or SILVER? Both? Barrick Mining, First Majestic Silver, and Silver North Resources in focus!
Gold and silver are not taking a break just before Christmas. The prices of precious metals are rising and rising. For silver, some experts' price target of USD 100 no longer seems unrealistic. First Majestic Silver's stock has performed even better. There is little choice among silver producers, and prices seem to be running hot. A shift to explorers in the coming year would come as no surprise. Silver North Resources is entering the new year with full coffers and positive results and aims to resume drilling as soon as possible. The Company is active in legally secure Canada, and its shares are attractive for investors. Those who missed the opportunity to invest in Barrick Mining in 2025 missed out on a threefold increase in value. The Company is also likely to have a few surprises in store in 2026. Perhaps even a hostile takeover?

Spectacular gains in 2025: Almonty up 8x, Rheinmetall up 2x - is TKMS next? Let profits run?
Commodity stocks and defense shares were among investors' favorites in 2025. Rheinmetall shares have more than doubled this year and have even increased tenfold since the outbreak of the war between Russia and Ukraine. An especially impressive rally was delivered by Almonty Industries, whose share price rose eightfold. The signs continue to point to growth, as the Company has key unique selling points and significant geopolitical relevance in the supply of strategic metals that are urgently needed in the West and are essential for the defense industry and high-tech sector. The necessary security of supply is also attracting governments as buyers. The development of stock market newcomer TKMS is also exciting. The order books of the manufacturer of submarines and naval vessels are filling up. The motto for these stocks in 2026 is: stay on board.

The Next Big Thing! US banks have their sights set on the trillion-dollar tokenization market – pioneer Finexity in pole position! Commerzbank and Deutsche Bank left behind?
Larry Fink, CEO of BlackRock, the world's largest asset manager, made a powerful and significant statement in which he declared tokenization to be the "next generation of markets." Furthermore, the entry of the largest US bank, JPMorgan, into this area highlights its great potential. With the help of tokenization, real-world assets (RWA) are divided into digital tokens and mapped on a blockchain in a legally secure manner. According to the consulting firm Boston Consulting Group, the RWA market will grow to an incredible USD 19 trillion by 2033. Private markets such as real estate, private equity, and renewable energy are an exciting and rapidly growing sub-sector. Tokenization now makes it possible to trade previously non-fungible assets. This is where German pioneer Finexity comes in, addressing a market worth billions.

Halo effect in Côte d'Ivoire: How Kobo Resources is maturing into the next big gold story in the shadow of Perseus and the Lundin Group
In the world of geologists and commodity prospectors, there is an unwritten law: the best finds are made in the shadow of existing world-class mines. Geology knows no license boundaries, and where millions of ounces of gold are already being mined, the probability of further discoveries is highest. This phenomenon, known as the "halo effect," is currently playing out in textbook fashion in Côte d'Ivoire. The West African country has become the new darling of international mining capital. While Australian producer Perseus Mining is demonstrating the enormous potential of the soil just a few kilometers away with the Yaouré mine, and Montage Gold is showing how attractive the region is to investors with the entry of the legendary Lundin Group, Kobo Resources is positioning itself right in between. For investors, the small explorer offers a rare opportunity to bet on the same geology and jurisdiction as the billion-dollar corporations, but with significantly more attractive leverage.

Silver boom shows no end! Exploration stocks like Silver Viper are significantly outperforming the precious metal! High reserves at Pan American Silver, record highs at Barrick
2025 was a historic year for silver. With a spectacular rally to a current all-time high of USD 67 per ounce, the price of silver has significantly outperformed gold and the broad mass of other commodities. Industrial demand, geopolitical uncertainties, and supply deficits are driving prices. Reaching new highs has also generated a strong buy signal. Market participants expect the bull market to continue. With shares in producers such as Pan American Silver, investors were able to significantly outperform silver. Exploration stocks such as Silver Viper, in particular, offer leveraged investment in the yellow precious metal's little brother in the current bull market cycle. Where is it still worth getting in?

The silver bet: Why Fresnillo is investing in Silver Viper – Hecla Mining already expensive
Silver is the metal of the moment. Driven by demand from the photovoltaic industry and its role as a safe haven, gold's little brother is once again becoming the focus of investors. But while established silver producers such as Hecla Mining and Fresnillo are struggling with the challenges of declining ore grades and rising costs, a new dynamic is forming in the second tier. Strategic alliances are being forged to secure the reserves of the future. Particularly exciting is a current constellation in Mexico, where global market leader Fresnillo is entering into an unusually close relationship with explorer Silver Viper Minerals. This move could be interpreted as a covert takeover preparation.

Milestone for Almonty Industries! Full order books at RENK and TKMS! Here is what analysts say
A milestone for Almonty Industries: the tungsten mine in South Korea goes into operation. This positions the raw material gem for strong revenue and earnings growth in the coming years. Analyst estimates are based on significantly lower prices and could therefore be too conservative. The stock is rebounding. Defense stocks are currently being weighed down by the possibility of peace in Ukraine, but order books remain well filled. Shortly before Christmas, RENK is celebrating a million-euro order from the German Armed Forces for various tanks. TKMS has no worries about revenue for the coming years, with an order backlog of EUR 18.5 billion, nearly nine times its annual sales. Analysts recommend buying.
