Power Metallic Mines – A New Commodities Giant in the Making
Global commodities markets are on the verge of a profound transformation. Copper, in particular, is emerging as a key strategic metal for the new industrial era. The massive expansion of power grids, electric mobility, and AI data centers is driving a significant increase in demand, while supply is only slowly keeping pace. Forecasts suggest that a structural deficit could develop by 2040, as new mines often take decades to reach production. This creates significant valuation potential for exploration companies advancing high-quality discoveries, as the market is increasingly willing to price in future supply gaps early on.

Gold as a Last Resort? Risks at Blackstone, Core Investment in Barrick Mining, and Top Opportunity in Lahontan Gold
The financial markets are at a critical juncture. While the global economy has long hoped for a soft landing, warning signs from the private credit market and record global debt of around USD 350 trillion are revealing the fragility of the credit-based system. According to data from the World Gold Council (WGC), total demand for gold exceeded the 5,000-ton mark for the first time in 2025. This drove the total volume of the gold market to USD 555 billion, representing a 45% increase. While this development is also due to rising prices, it is nonetheless impressive. Even after the recent correction, the precious metal remains in demand: central banks purchased around 863 tons in 2025, while index funds absorbed 801 tons. Analysts at JPMorgan and Goldman Sachs raised their price targets, in some cases above the USD 6,000 mark. In this complex landscape, the connections between the financial industry and precious metals become particularly interesting. While giants like Blackstone grapple with mounting challenges, mining companies such as Barrick Mining are benefiting from the flight to tangible assets. However, the standout opportunity for investors lies with the explorer Lahontan Gold, which impresses with a largely crisis-resilient business model.

A Stock Picker's Paradise: DRC Gold, Verbio, and Mutares - Which Stock Is Poised to Surge Next?
Even in highly volatile markets, selective opportunities continue to emerge. Investors who added Verbio to their portfolios a year ago can now celebrate a fourfold increase in their capital.

The new updated medium-term targets point to continued growth, and recent analyst commentary suggests upside potential of 85% from current levels. For investors looking to leverage gold's pullbacks with the excellent prospects of an explorer, DRC Gold is a good choice.

Almonty Industries: The Tungsten Dominator of the West
Whether in golf clubs, X-ray machines, saw blades, or Abrams tanks, tungsten is ubiquitous—and virtually irreplaceable. As a result, this strategic metal sits at the intersection of industrial demand and geopolitics. China controls around 80% of global supply; together with Russia and North Korea, this dominance rises to around 95%. In an increasingly polarized world, tungsten has effectively become a strategic asset. Almonty Industries is positioning itself as a key supplier for the Western alliance, having recently ramped up production at its flagship mine in South Korea while pursuing an ambitious global expansion strategy. The recent pullback in the stock may offer a compelling entry point for strategic investors.

Gold as a System Anchor: Desert Gold as a Hidden Opportunity, Challenges at Blue Owl Capital and Newmont
The global financial architecture is undergoing a period of profound change. While stock markets appear resilient thanks to AI, alarming imbalances are emerging in the credit sector and government budgets. Global debt has reached the USD 340 trillion mark, which is roughly three to four times the world's economic output. In this complex landscape, gold is proving its role as a store of value: data from the World Gold Council (WGC) shows that demand exceeded the 5,000-ton mark for the first time last year. Even after temporary sell-offs, the precious metal remains in extremely high demand, with central banks from China, India, and Poland acting as buyers. Forecasts from renowned financial institutions see the gold price returning to above the USD 6,000 mark in the medium term. While warning signs from the private credit market are driving investors toward established producers like Newmont, second-tier stocks are also coming into focus. For risk-conscious investors, Desert Gold offers attractive leverage.

Iran Conflict Boosting Margins: BASF, Lahontan Gold, E.ON, and Lanxess in focus
Brent crude at USD 100 – this is a game-changer! The recent attack on Qatar's key LNG facility has taken 17% of annual production off the market, and the global LNG market faces a multi-year structural deficit. A doubling of gas prices around the globe in just 12 hours also sent oil prices soaring. Worse still: The Strait of Hormuz is currently blocked, and neither oil nor gas tankers can even begin their voyages at sea. For the winding-down winter season in Europe, the problem is not overwhelming, but filling gas storage facilities over the summer is likely to prove difficult. In this environment, gold has been benefiting again since mid-week, up 5% to USD 4,550; at the crisis low, the price had even dipped to USD 4,150. How are select gold companies and major gas consumers like BASF and Lanxess faring right now? What about E.ON? Here are a few thoughts.

DAX & Gold Correction: 100% Gains Possible with SAP, Kobo Resources, and Oracle
High volatility is shaping daily trading. With the threat of an airstrike on Iranian nuclear power plants, the major stock markets came under extreme pressure. As a result, the closely watched DAX 40 index briefly fell below 22,000 points, in tandem with the NASDAQ. As a reminder, the annual high was set in January at 25,508 points. The price of gold also suffered from the general trend toward liquidity; everything that was not firmly in place was sold off. However, since Wednesday, there have been initial signs of easing, and buybacks are beginning. We are focusing on the promising projects of Kobo Resources in Côte d'Ivoire and also believe that cloud and AI experts SAP and Oracle are poised for a turnaround in 2026. We are convinced that one of these stocks will achieve a 100% return over the next two years. Of course, you are free to choose how to structure your portfolio.

Take Advantage of Future Cash Flows at Bargain Prices Now: Desert Gold, Barrick, and Newmont!
In recent weeks, the gold price has corrected by over USD 1,000. Is this cause for concern? In a nutshell: no. Corrections following strong rallies are normal. Currently, the scenario of persistently high oil and energy prices is acting as a particular drag, and inflation and interest rates could rise significantly. However, historically high gold prices ensure strong profits for mining operators, as industry leaders Barrick and Newmont have demonstrated in recent quarters. Canadian-based Desert Gold currently appears particularly promising. Gold production is set to begin this summer. Analysts are extremely bullish and see potential for the stock price to multiply.

Antimony Alert! Hotter than gold and rarer than lithium: Re-rating Potential for Antimony Resources After Recent Pullback
The world is becoming increasingly unstable—something reflected in the daily news flow. Geopolitical tensions are rising, and commodities that were largely overlooked for years are now moving into focus. Antimony is one such example: a relatively unknown metal, yet strategically important. No modern tank can be produced without it, no precision ammunition, no night vision goggles. What makes the market particularly compelling is its structure—like many critical raw materials, supply is highly concentrated, with China dominating global production and processing. But this is precisely the emerging supply gap Antimony Resources is filling through its Canadian project, which is unparalleled.
