"Top Pick" Siemens Energy, Drone Potential at Steyr Motors, and a Buying Opportunity at DRC Gold
US President Trump continues to keep global stock markets on edge. Gold, energy, and defense stocks were expected to benefit from the announced blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. However, gold and defense stocks, in particular, have been trending weaker, just as they have over the past few weeks. This presents interesting buying opportunities. Take DRC Gold, for example. After the focus, the stock was on an upward trend. But over the past 4 weeks, it has fallen by around 20%. Meanwhile, the update on the resource estimate is imminent and could fuel new takeover speculation. Steyr Motors shares have also lost ground. Yet management looked optimistically toward the future at the AGM. Siemens Energy was among yesterday's losers. But this is no cause for concern. Analysts still consider the stock a "Top Pick," and the partnership with Amazon subsidiary AWS fuels AI speculation.

Double The Gains: 100% Rebound in Defense Stocks and Critical Metals – Rheinmetall, Antimony Resources, CSG, and Mutares in focus
Created and published on behalf of Antimony Resources Corp.
The stock market gives and takes. While investors were able to celebrate a massive 5% gain last week, the tide has already turned in the opposite direction this week. The reason: The hoped-for peace talks in Pakistan between the US, Israel, and Iran have failed. Since this provides no positive momentum for the economy or the already strained energy and metals markets, volatility is likely to return in some sectors. We are looking at opportunities in the critical metals sector and highlighting some stocks that are showing attractive metrics again following recent corrections.

Almonty Drives the Tungsten Market: Between Shortages, Price Surges, and Revaluation
Major stock indices are currently experiencing heightened volatility. Following the strong rally of the past 24 months, both the S&P 500 and the DAX 40 have recently corrected by between 5% and 10%. Rising interest rates and little prospect of peace in one of the many global hotspots are weighing particularly heavily on the market. Commodities paint a different picture: industrial metals and critical materials remain in demand, led by tungsten, whose price has increased roughly tenfold over the past 24 months. Producer Almonty Industries is benefiting particularly from this; with the start of production in Sangdong, it is now entering a new operational phase and, with a market capitalization of more than EUR 4.2 billion, has made its way onto the buy lists of institutional investors. The recent consolidation appears to be over. What should investors be watching for now?

ITM Power, Lahontan Gold, DroneShield – Uncertainties Present Buying Opportunities
As expected, the peace talks between the US and Iran in Islamabad over the weekend have failed for now. As a result, global stock markets are likely to remain under pressure at the start of the week. Many stocks face the risk of massive corrections and oversold conditions, which could be exploited as buying opportunities in the long term. In addition to the gold sector, interesting opportunities are also emerging in the hydrogen and drone technology sectors.

Opportunities in West Africa: Barrick Mining and B2Gold Resume Investment – Desert Gold on the Verge of a Breakthrough
The gold industry in West Africa is largely characterized by consolidation along the Senegal-Mali Shear Zone (SMSZ), with securing economically viable reserves being the top priority for producers in an environment of high gold prices. According to forecasts by PwC consultants, this focus by the mining industry is making a decisive contribution to the economic stability of the entire region. While industry leaders such as Barrick Mining are ramping up production at the Loulo-Gounkoto complex following the resolution of regulatory disputes and forecasting production of up to 290,000 ounces for 2026, B2Gold is focusing on optimizing the massive Fekola complex. B2Gold plans total production of up to 970,000 ounces of gold for the current year and is investing heavily in regional exploration to extend the life of its core African assets. These investments demonstrate that the region is promising and that past country risks have receded into the background. In the immediate vicinity of well-known mines, Desert Gold is developing the SMSZ project, which, with resources of 1.3 million ounces of gold, represents one of the largest undeveloped land packages in the region. With the planned launch of a modular gravity plant this coming summer, the company is preparing for the transition to a junior producer. For this reason, Desert Gold offers a highly attractive prospect for investors: At a time when the major players are investing again, Desert could take off on its own or become a takeover target. Investors who position themselves in time are likely to benefit from this momentum.

Desert Gold: The Next Gold Miner in West Africa
The past 50 years in mining belonged to Latin America, as they say in the industry. That is where mining giants like Chile, Mexico, and Brazil emerged; countries that are now indispensable to the global economy. But this century belongs to Africa; all experts agree on that. Many undiscovered deposits are still waiting to be discovered by the world. The western part of the continent is becoming increasingly important in the gold sector. Desert Gold has established itself in Mali and plans to start production as early as this summer. The company's valuation is attractive, and the stock is still flying under the radar of many investors. This presents a buying opportunity for bold investors.

Gold Renaissance in Nevada: Nevada Gold Mines, Kinross Gold, and Takeover Candidate Lahontan Gold
Gold has shown increased volatility in recent weeks, while geopolitical developments continue to shape capital allocation across the sector. In response, producers are increasingly focusing on politically stable regions where existing infrastructure offers cost advantages. According to the Fraser Institute, Nevada remains one of the most attractive regions globally for mining investment. While industry leaders such as Nevada Gold Mines are setting standards through optimizations at their large-scale mines and corporations like Kinross Gold are actively searching for new resources in the Walker-Lane trend to replace their dwindling reserves, junior explorers offer a unique opportunity. The up-and-coming company Lahontan Gold operates the Santa Fe project, a former producing mine that recently made headlines with strong drill results. Thanks to a combination of existing permits and its location in one of the world's most productive gold regions, the company's flagship project aligns closely with the acquisition criteria of larger producers.

Iran Conflict and Chip Boom: Almonty Industries Emerges as a Raw Materials Superpower
Amid rising geopolitical tensions and increasing dependence on critical raw materials, investors are focusing on supply security and strategic assets. The geopolitical situation is escalating, while technological dependence on critical raw materials has reached a dangerous level. Almonty Industries sits right at the intersection and offers a solution to a problem affecting the West. With the opening of one of the world's largest tungsten mines in South Korea, the company has not only achieved an operational milestone but also made a political statement. This is about far more than just mining; it is about the independence of entire industries. In this report, we examine why Almonty Industries could be particularly well-positioned amid fragile ceasefires, such as in Iran, and rising commodity prices. Those who understand the management's foresight will quickly realize that a company has emerged here that will redefine the rules of the game on the global market. This is the story of forward-thinking strategy, technical necessity, and a passion for a raw material without which the modern world would likely grind to a halt.

The Geological "Unicorn" the Market Refuses to See: Yet Power Metallic Mines Already Has the Big Players on Board
There are moments in the commodities industry when the data speaks so clearly that one has to wonder why the market hasn't caught on. Power Metallic Mines appears to be in exactly such a phase. On one side, spectacular drill results, world-class metallurgy, and high-profile investors point to generational potential. On the other, the market remains cautious, skeptical, and stuck in a wait-and-see mode for "the next study." Those who recognize this disconnect may be looking at one of the rare asymmetric opportunities in today's commodities market.

Almonty Industries: Poised to Benefit from Tungsten Supply Constraints and Defense Demand
With the ceasefire in the Middle East, a new phase may emerge: increased rearmament. The arsenals in the US, Israel, and the Gulf states have been severely depleted. How quickly the replenishment succeeds is likely to depend heavily on the supply of critical raw materials. And in many cases, China, as a de facto monopolist, holds significant influence. One essential metal is tungsten. It is used not only for ammunition and missiles but also, for example, in the semiconductor industry. In this sector, genuine supply bottlenecks appear to be looming. Major Japanese companies are, in any case, warning of this. Against this backdrop, it is not surprising that the price of tungsten has risen from USD 900 to around USD 3,000 per metric ton unit (MTU) this year alone. Nor is it surprising that Almonty Industries is a real analyst favorite. The tungsten producer is positioned for strong earnings growth.
