Defense out - Time to buy commodities! Hensoldt, Globex Mining, Barrick, Mutares, and Steyr

  • Mining
  • Gold
  • Defense
  • Investments

That is how quickly market darlings can fall out of favor. Just last week, Rheinmetall & Co. were hitting record highs, but as of Monday, the euphoria came to a sudden halt. Trump agreed with China on lower tariffs, and Volodymyr Zelenskyy will travel to Turkey on Thursday to sit down with Russia's aggressor, Vladimir Putin. At the moment, this is still hard to believe. For the capital markets, however, this means a shift: out of defense and into high-tech and automotive stocks, the biggest winners of recent hours. The whole thing could be seen as a healthy rotation, as the major indices are at record levels, while tech and automotive stocks have corrected significantly in recent weeks. Once again, the cards are being reshuffled. For Globex Mining, the setback is suitable for medium-term follow-up purchases.

When returns meet security: Why Almonty Industries is suddenly everyone's darling!

  • Mining
  • Tungsten
  • Defense
  • Investments

In 2025, the world looks at a map full of conflicts: tensions are escalating in Ukraine, the Middle East, and along new geopolitical fault lines in Asia and Africa. Hopes for peace are giving way to a reality of rearmament and militarization. This dynamic is fueling the defense industry. But its boom depends on an inconspicuous metal: tungsten. With its unique heat resistance and density, it is irreplaceable for armor-piercing ammunition, missiles, and high-performance alloys. While China dominates the global market, a Canadian company is stepping into the spotlight: Almonty Industries. With the revival of the legendary Sangdong mine in South Korea and strategic partnerships, Almonty could become a key player for the West.

Gold at USD 6,000 and takeover rumors: Evotec, Barrick Gold, and Desert Gold shares

  • Mining
  • Gold
  • Biotechnology

Evotec shares shot up by over 10% on Friday. Is it due to the payment from the Gates Foundation? Or is there a new attempt to buy German biotech companies soon? Desert Gold is a hot takeover candidate in the gold sector. The Canadians aim to expand their resources to 2 million ounces and start production soon. Analysts at GBC Research believe the share price could multiply. GBC's estimates are based on a gold price of USD 2,300. Currently, the precious metal is trading above USD 3,000. According to experts, USD 6,000 is even possible. In that case, even Barrick could strike it rich. However, the latest first-quarter report failed to provide new momentum for the stock. Are acquisitions needed?

Almonty Industries – The next 100% opportunity with strategic metals

  • Mining
  • Tungsten
  • Investments

Things continue to go well for Almonty Industries (TSX: AII; WKN: A1JSSD; ISIN: CA0203981034; EUR 1.59). The stock is already one of the best commodity stocks for 2025. The market is gradually realizing that this story could be worth billions. The trade dispute between the US and many nations is proving to be a death blow for Western industries, especially those in China. In response to announced trade tariffs of over 100%, the leadership in Beijing has imposed export restrictions on strategic metals. Tungsten is one of the most critical metals, essential for high-tech and defense applications. Deposits and producers are few and far between, with a good 70% of supply coming from China. Almonty Industries is set to start production in South Korea in 2025, and US producers are already securing valuable tungsten. A jump in valuation is on the cards!

High-grade discovery at Tocvan Ventures – Gold corridor within reach at Gran Pilar

  • Mining
  • Gold
  • Silver
  • Commodities

Volatility on the capital markets reached record levels in the first quarter of 2025. Geopolitical upheavals and unpredictable US policy have caused stock prices to fluctuate wildly. Precious metal investments could provide a good hedge against turbulence in the financial system and a devaluation of the US dollar. With spot prices recently reaching new record highs, investors are increasingly strengthening their exposure to the commodities sector. Gold has so far met expectations with prices of up to USD 3,500 and an annual gain of just under 20% in 2025, while silver has also reached high prices of over USD 35. In addition to producers, the spotlight is now shifting to the second tier of explorers. This is because the valuations of in-ground resources are at their lowest level in decades. Canadian gold explorer Tocvan Ventures (CSE: TOC | WKN: A2PE64 | ISIN: CA88900N1050 | CAD 0.69) has recently seen a string of positive announcements. The latest update on recent drilling at the Pilar gold-silver project in Sonora delivered impressive gold and silver grades.

While Friedrich Merz fails, BUYING OPPORTUNITIES arise for these stocks: Deutz, BYD, and Power Metallic Mines

  • Mining
  • Gold
  • Silver
  • Commodities
  • Electromobility

Friedrich Merz has failed in the first round of voting to become Chancellor. But these stocks are winners: without metals, there would be no electromobility, no defense, no infrastructure - and when it comes to gold, no store of value. Power Metallic Metals caused a stir last year with spectacular drilling results. The latest samples show that the potential is far from exhausted. The current consolidation of the stock should soon be over. Deutz has already demonstrated how quickly a stock can explode. Analysts believe there is even more upside potential! And what is BYD doing? The Chinese company is growing strongly in their home market. In Europe, a bestseller is now set to bring success. Is this a threat to Volkswagen?

Almonty: Why tungsten is the most critical of all metals

  • Mining
  • Tungsten
  • Investments

Tungsten producer Almonty Industries shares are among this year's high flyers - rising from EUR 0.61 to EUR 1.56. There are many reasons for this: the imminent opening of Almonty's Sangdong mine in South Korea comes at a time of extreme geopolitical volatility, including a tariff and raw materials war and the gradual erosion of NATO. However, there are further reasons why tungsten is currently in such high demand. What role does China play in this, and do stocks like Almonty still hold more upside potential?

Lithium Made in Europe: European Lithium, SQM, Stellantis, and the supply chains of the future

  • Electromobility

Electromobility is booming - but without lithium, there are no batteries, and without batteries, there is no mobility transition. While major corporations like SQM from Chile dominate the market, European Lithium is working to make Europe more independent. At the same time, manufacturers such as Stellantis are establishing local supply chains to decouple themselves from global supply risks. We outline the situation in the lithium market and take a European perspective.

Investors are fleeing to the safe haven of precious metals in the face of geopolitical turmoil and inflation. At the same time, AI is not only driving consumer goods but also revolutionizing security strategies and data infrastructure. We take a look at an exciting company from each of these sectors.
