Almonty Industries – Main beneficiary of the tungsten shock
The price of tungsten has quadrupled within a year. China dominates over 80% of production, is cutting subsidies, tightening export rules, and struggling with declining ore grades. At the same time, demand from the defense, semiconductor, and data center sectors continues to drive the market. The West is looking for alternatives, and one of the largest mines outside China is about to ramp up production. Could this give rise to a strategic raw materials player that could serve up to 40% of non-Chinese demand?

Reserves at their limit: Why Newmont and Barrick Mining depend on developers such as Lahontan Gold
The price of gold is hitting new highs, driven by global debt of over USD 340 trillion and the devaluation of fiat currencies. Analysts at JPMorgan forecast an average gold price of USD 5,055 per ounce by the end of 2026. In this market environment, gold mine operators are seeing revenue and EBITDA growth. Nevertheless, producers face a massive problem: they are extracting the precious metal faster than they can discover new deposits. The procurement of new resources in reliable jurisdictions has become a matter of operational survival for players in industry. We present a promising stock that aims to make great strides in 2026.

WATCH OUT for Nel ASA! INSIDER PURCHASES at thyssenkrupp nucera! Secure a 10% DIVIDEND now with RE Royalties shares!
Investors can currently still secure a dividend yield of 10% with RE Royalties shares. The share price has finally taken off and still appears inexpensive. It offers an opportunity to profit from the AI energy boom in the US at a low cost. Hydrogen companies are still far from paying dividends. Most recently, thyssenkrupp nucera also slipped into the red. However, analysts see potential for the share price to rise and recommend buying. Insiders are also buying the stock. In contrast, Nel appears to have lost all share price momentum. The company has not published any news for what feels like an eternity, and no analyst recommends buying the stock. But next week is likely to be exciting.

Agricultural revolution breaks the billion-dollar barrier: Why MustGrow Biologics, Bayer, and Bioceres Crop Solutions are ending the era of chemicals
The agricultural industry is currently transitioning from toxic chemicals to high-performance biologics. In this market environment, various players are positioning themselves with complementary strategies to capture the gigantic market for sustainable crop protection, which is expected to generate billions of dollars in revenue in the future.

From raw material to reactor: How Cameco, Stallion Uranium, and Constellation Energy are capitalizing on the AI-driven energy crisis
Artificial intelligence and its thirsty data centers are driving electricity demand to new heights, while geopolitical tensions and years of underinvestment are strangling the supply of uranium. Analysts predict a multiplication of the price of uranium, as mines are currently producing only three-quarters of the material needed. At the same time, US policy is pushing for the construction of dozens of new reactors and classifying nuclear power as critical infrastructure. That is why it is worth taking a look at three companies today: primary producer Cameco, exploration specialist Stallion Uranium, and reactor operator Constellation Energy.

"Property Bank" for the raw materials era: Globex Mining combines the best of Franco-Nevada and Altius
The current market phase is a turning point for the global mining industry. While gold prices above USD 5,000 per ounce and a structural copper deficit dominate the headlines in the financial press, traditional explorers are struggling with the harsh reality in the background: drilling costs are skyrocketing, approval processes are taking forever, and the risk of drilling a "dry hole" has never been more expensive than it is today. In an environment of growing operational risks, a business model that creates security through scale and diversification is gaining in importance: the so-called "property bank." While industry giants such as Franco-Nevada shine with substantial revenues from royalties and Altius Minerals creates value as a project generator, a smaller but highly agile player combines both worlds in a single stock. With a portfolio of over 250 projects, Globex Mining effectively offers investors a commodity ETF in a single holding, without any of the debt or dilution risks of a conventional mining operator.

Gold stock set to MULTIPLY? Could Desert Gold outshine Barrick Mining, B2Gold, and others?
While the price of gold remains above USD 5,000 per troy ounce, one country is staging a spectacular comeback. After two years of negative headlines, the government appears to be reassessing its approach and is seeking renewed cooperation with gold companies. The West African country will remain strategically important in the future, not just for Barrick Mining and B2Gold. As a result, gold companies operating there are likely to see a stock market resurgence. Desert Gold clearly stands out as a potential outperformer, with its Mali activities currently barely reflected in the stock price. Analysts see potential for substantial gains.

People Make Markets: Why NEO Battery Materials Could Now Repeat the Successes of Patriot Battery and Enovix
In the global battery market, the harsh reality has set in that a patent alone is worthless if it cannot be scaled. History is full of start-ups that delivered brilliant lab results but failed in the transition to mass production. Today, professional investors are looking less at theoretical energy densities and more at the minds behind the business. If you want to build billion-dollar factories and manage complex supply chains, you need doers, not theorists. Recent history provides impressive evidence of this: Patriot Battery Metals exploded on the stock market when lithium legend Ken Brinsden took the helm. Enovix is winning the confidence of the markets thanks to the iron fist of chip veteran T.J. Rodgers. Now, NEO Battery Materials is preparing to play the same card. The company is not only banking on a disruptive silicon anode, but also on a management team that comes from the heart of South Korea's battery superpower – reinforced by strategic new additions from the military.

The Transaction Era: Why Desert Gold Ventures Emerges as the Clear Winner in West Africa – B2Gold Watches, Robex Resources as a Blueprint
The spotlight at Mining Indaba 2026 in Cape Town in early February illuminated a new reality that goes far beyond production quotas and drilling results. A term emerged from the panel discussions that defines future commodity policy: "transactional." The era of purely ideological alliances is giving way to a pragmatic age in which security of supply and access to resources are the currency of geopolitics. In this new global structure, in which the West, China, and the Global South are vying for influence, Africa is no longer positioning itself as a supplicant but as a strategic partner on an equal footing. Capital follows this logic. However, it does not flow indiscriminately, but rather targets the most geologically productive regions. In the gold sector, this means that all eyes are on the Senegal-Mali Shear Zone (SMSZ). In this world-class district, a small explorer controls the key to the longevity of the giants there: Desert Gold Ventures. While B2Gold and Robex Resources manage their billion-dollar assets, Desert Gold sits on strategic reserves that are likely to become very expensive in a transactional world.

Forget the automakers: Deutsche Telekom, RE Royalties, and BASF are the new anchors for your income in 2026
The message sounds promising: EUR 52.9 billion for shareholders. But those who rely on the familiar dividend stars could be in for a nasty surprise in 2026. While global distributions are crawling along and growth has halved to 2.7%, a quiet power shift is taking place in portfolios. Former dividend kings, like the automakers, are hitting the brakes, while banks and financiers are setting the pace. For investors, this means paying closer attention. A closer look at Deutsche Telekom, RE Royalties, and BASF shows where the real opportunities for 2026 might lie.
