China Is Buying Gold—Even More Than Expected? Barrick Mining, Newmont, and Lahontan Gold Stand to Benefit
While the price of gold holds steady above the USD 4,000 mark, China is buying heavily. According to the Chinese central bank, China purchased 15 metric tons of gold in June alone. This is the highest volume since October 2023. Furthermore, the market has long suspected that China's actual gold purchases are significantly higher than the officially reported amounts. This could mean gold is on the verge of a new rally. For investors looking to profit from a long-term rise in the price of gold, Barrick Mining and Newmont are considered core investments in the gold sector. They offer relatively direct exposure to the price of gold. Rising selling prices can have a disproportionately large impact on cash flow and profits when production costs remain stable. At the same time, operational risks, cost increases, and political uncertainties persist in individual mining countries. Exploration companies are a good option for adding to a portfolio to gain additional exposure to the price of gold.

Analysts Sound the Alarm: Desert Gold and Steyr Offer Significant Upside Potential—Is Stabilus Poised for a Robotics-Driven Turnaround?
Selected small caps can offer compelling opportunities beyond the market's biggest names. Analysts see significant upside potential in several companies, citing attractive catalysts and long-term growth prospects. Desert Gold is approaching the start of gold production, a milestone that GBC analysts believe could drive a substantial re-rating of the stock. At Steyr, the first potential acquirer has emerged. Although the talks were not successful, this is nonetheless an encouraging strategic signal. Here, too, analysts recommend buying. Meanwhile, could Stabilus' latest strategic robotics partnership mark the beginning of a turnaround? Which of these stocks could be the next to break out?

A Chip Crash Was Inevitable, a Gold Revival Is on the Horizon! AMD, Infineon, and SanDisk Are in a Sell-Off; Lahontan Gold Is on the Rise
What a bombshell in the tech sector! The abrupt plunge in semiconductor stocks has unexpectedly shaken up the industry and forced the NASDAQ into a correction. After a rally lasting several months, valuations were starting to look ambitious, while signs of an economic slowdown were emerging. A reassessment of fundamentals appears to be underway, as in an environment of persistent inflation and high volatility, investors' desire for stability and preservation of value is once again coming to the forefront. Gold has historically served this role many times as a classic "safe haven", safeguarding real purchasing power through crises. The tactical strategy is to realize some or all of the gains from overheated, cyclical technology and semiconductor stocks and reallocate them to precious metals and related instruments. While chip and memory stocks react strongly to market sentiment, an exposure to the gold sector provides a stable anchor with long-term opportunities. Now is a good time to act!

Do Not Miss Gold's Next Rally: Why Newmont, Desert Gold and Agnico Eagle Deserve a Closer Look
Investors are watching the yellow precious metal closely; its price has recently come under pressure but has stabilized above USD 4,000. The fundamental conditions for further price increases remain intact. Central banks continue to prefer buying gold over the US dollar; geopolitical turmoil is driving demand for safe-haven assets; and the prospect of falling key interest rates is traditionally good for gold prices. At the same time, robust physical demand coupled with stagnant production is leading to a supply shortage. This environment is fostering positive sentiment, particularly among producers. A look at the current situation at Newmont, Desert Gold, and Agnico Eagle reveals which companies could benefit most from this tailwind.

Oversold? Kostolany Buy Signals Emerge for Rheinmetall, Lahontan Gold and Coinbase
Hopes for a lasting ceasefire between the US and Iran are driving stock prices higher. Oil prices are falling, and inflation concerns are easing. Even in such a supportive environment, however, investors should avoid buying indiscriminately. Legendary investor André Kostolany coined the rule: when prices ignore bad news, panic selling has ended. In other words, those who wanted to sell have already done so. This pattern now appears to be emerging in three very different stocks. The German defence contractor Rheinmetall, the Canadian exploration company Lahontan Gold, and the US crypto platform Coinbase have all retreated significantly from their respective highs. Yet, each has recently absorbed negative news without suffering further meaningful declines—potentially signalling that sentiment has begun to stabilize.

Adidas, Tonies, and Lahontan Gold: Three Promising Stocks with Strong Momentum
Stocks with momentum that have already risen sharply often continue to rise. One possible explanation lies in investor behaviour. New developments are rarely recognized immediately in their full scope. When a company's financial results, growth prospects, or strategic position improve, the market often adjusts its expectations only gradually. Rising share prices also attract attention. New investors jump in, analysts raise their forecasts, and institutional investors build positions. The stocks of Lahontan Gold, Adidas, and Tonies are in uptrends, have a track record of solid operations, and are poised for important news that could trigger the next price surge.

TUI, Xiaomi and Desert Gold: Goodbye Summer Slump, Chip Headwinds and a Golden Opportunity—Where Investors Could Find Value
Below, we look at three companies across different industries: the travel operator TUI, the Chinese technology provider Xiaomi, and the mining company Desert Gold Ventures. While TUI is expected to benefit from the continued recovery in global travel demand, Xiaomi is facing margin pressure in its core business due to rising component costs. At the same time, the company is seeking to unlock new sources of earnings growth through its electric vehicle division. Desert Gold Ventures, meanwhile, is on the verge of transitioning from exploration to active gold production. We examine the current key metrics, analyst price targets and fundamental developments for all three companies to assess their investment potential.

Gold and Silver Poised for a Comeback? Lahontan Gold, Newmont and First Majestic Emerge as Top Picks
Gold has served as one of humanity's oldest stores of value for centuries. Today, rising government debt, geopolitical tensions and sustained central bank buying continue to shape the precious metals market. Thanks to high precious metal prices, profits are soaring for producers like Newmont and First Majestic. Investors looking to identify the winners of the coming years should keep an eye not only on the major players but also on companies that are on the verge of production. After all, it is precisely during this transition phase that significant opportunities often arise. Lahontan Gold currently finds itself precisely at this juncture. The Canadian company is on the verge of reaching several key milestones on its path to first gold production next year. The key question is whether the gap between the value of its flagship project and the company's market valuation will begin to close as early as this summer.

Gold Holds Above USD 4,000: Barrick Mining, Kobo Resources and Kinross Gold Offer Upside Potential
Gold has held above the key USD 4,000 per ounce level following its recent pullback. The correction shook the market, but the precious metal has rebounded faster than even the most optimistic analysts had expected.

For investors willing to look beyond the obvious, attractive opportunities are now emerging. Three companies deserve special attention in this environment: the established industry leader Barrick Mining, the promising explorer Kobo Resources, and the gold producer Kinross Gold.

Promising Explorer Kobo Resources Heading for a Busy Fall? Endeavour Mining and Perseus Mining Under Pressure
West Africa stands out for its vibrant mining scene. A lot is happening in the region right now. While the major mining giants are investing billions in their existing operations to extend mine lifetimes, an increasing number of smaller players are also coming into focus with high-grade discoveries. In Côte d'Ivoire in particular, there is already existing processing infrastructure that needs to be utilized to full capacity. This is driving activity along the Birimian greenstone belt. The race for promising gold properties near existing milling capacity has begun. In this way, corporations are avoiding extensive new investments and permitting processes while breathing new life into existing facilities. We explain the trend and highlight a potential beneficiary.
