From ore to energy: How BYD, Power Metallic Mines, and Siemens Energy are benefiting from the energy transition
The global energy transition is not only sparking hope but also a race for scarce raw materials. Nickel, cobalt, copper, lithium, and rare earths are becoming the backbone of batteries and wind turbines, while geopolitical tensions over supply chains are driving up prices. Those who position themselves in time could benefit from the redistribution of global power. This is particularly exciting for companies that either secure access to these resources, develop technologies for their use, or play a decisive role in the value chain, such as BYD, Power Metallic Mines, and Siemens Energy.

Trump Lifts Tariffs on Tungsten: Implications for Almonty, historical parallels with Nucor and Cameco
There is hardly a trading day without a tariff headline: Over the weekend, US President Donald Trump announced the exemption of several key imports — including gold, uranium, and tungsten — from import tariffs. The measure highlights just how strategically important these two raw materials, in particular, have become for the country. No tariffs should hinder trade in tungsten and other critical materials. This is good news for tungsten producer Almonty Industries, which has only recently relocated its headquarters to the US and has already secured offtake agreements with US industry players. The Company is now preparing to bring its massive Sangdong mine in South Korea into production - a project that could account for more than 40% of the global tungsten supply outside China. It now appears likely that a large portion of this production can be exported to the US tariff-free. We take a closer look at what the US government's measures mean in concrete terms and what opportunities similar market interventions have created for investors in the past, with the examples of Nucor and Cameco.

Fed turnaround and Chinese restrictions: How Deutsche Bank, Globex Mining, and Barrick Mining are positioned
Two forces are currently driving global financial markets. On the one hand, there is the US Federal Reserve's monetary policy turnaround and on the other, China's restrictions on commodity exports. This dynamic is driving volatility and creating unique opportunities in the commodities and finance sectors. Against this backdrop, it is worth taking a look at three companies. We examine Deutsche Bank, which is excelling in its home market, Globex Mining with its huge commodities portfolio, and industry leader Barrick Mining, which is benefiting from historically high precious metal prices.

High-profile projects as a zinc turbo: Glencore, Mercedes-Benz, Pasinex Resources
Zinc is a highly sought-after industrial metal — but its price can fluctuate significantly at times. There is about a 25% difference between this spring's yearly low and the average annual price of USD 3,400 forecasted by analysts at Wood Mackenzie. Why is that? Just a few months ago, the market was concerned about an industrial downturn. Today, it is clear that inventories are low and demand from China is anything but weakening. Still, the zinc market remains challenging. We explain which companies are good investments in this environment and which are not!

Opendoor, Almonty Industries, BioNTech – Great opportunities outside the tech bubble
While the Nasdaq 100 continued to lose momentum last week, along with leading tech stocks, the crisis metal gold celebrated a new all-time high at USD 3,586 per ounce. The escalating geopolitical crises and the intensifying trade war between the US and China are likely to drive prices for critical raw materials in the long term. Western producers remain attractively valued.

Top news and price target raised! Plug Power, Standard Lithium, and BMW partner European Lithium
In the run-up to the IAA, BMW is stealing the spotlight from other automakers. The focus of attention is clearly on the Munich-based company's "Neue Klasse". If the new electric models are a success, European Lithium stands to benefit - they are set to supply the lithium for the batteries. But this raw materials gem has a second ace up its sleeve: rare earths. The stock is being driven by positive news flow, which is likely to continue. Standard Lithium is also seeing strong momentum. Analysts have recently raised their price targets significantly. In contrast, the alarm lights continue to flash at Plug Power. While revenue is rising and costs are falling, cash burn remains a concern. Nevertheless, analysts are recommending the hydrogen stock as a "Buy".

GOLD EXPLOSION to USD 5,000? Barrick Mining, Sranan Gold, and First Majestic Silver! Better than Rheinmetall?
While experts predict prices of over EUR 2,200 for Rheinmetall, they believe gold could reach USD 5,000 per ounce. This puts mining stocks back in the spotlight after lagging behind the precious metal's performance for a long time. Barrick Mining is showing signs of life and has begun a recovery after several challenging years. However, things could get even more exciting for explorers, such as Sranan Gold. The Company is attractively valued, and following high-grade sampling, a drilling program has just been launched. This drill program benefits from historical data from gold giant Iamgold. Meanwhile, the price of silver is also picking up again and now stands at over USD 40. First Majestic Silver is delivering exploration results that support its growth potential.

Trump under pressure, markets wobble – Technically position now with BYD, Almonty, and Palantir for the next 100% gains!
The stock markets are in yet another bubble, but unlike the tech bubble in 2000, investors are more prepared for the impending correction. The warning signs could not be more evident: inflation, wars, numerous global conflicts, surging interest rates, massive deficits, tariffs and trade wars! Anyone who sees short-term growth under these conditions is likely mistaken. And yet, the market is still holding on to the megatrends of artificial intelligence and defense. Admittedly, 1,000% or more could be earned here, which is good for those who rode out these trends. But caution is advised: The Shiller P/E ratio for the S&P 500 rose above 40 last week – well above the historical norm of 12 to 25. So, where is the celebration continuing? We offer a few clues.

Tariff shock for Trump, Concerns about US banks, Gold hype: Globex Mining, Newmont, Bank of America
In recent months, many feared the US was on a path toward dictatorship. Fortunately, this is not yet the case, as demonstrated recently by a US federal appeals court ruling, which declared 75% of Donald Trump's tariffs to be illegal. The judges involved ruled independently of their political leanings – both supporters and opponents of the tariffs included Republicans and Democrats. While this is not such a bad thing for US political culture, it does harbour enormous risks: tariffs worth billions could now be reversed, and the US Federal Reserve may once again delay its planned interest rate cuts. One clear beneficiary of this uncertainty has been gold, with the precious metal reaching a new all-time high. We highlight the opportunities.

All-Time High for Gold, Volatility Rising! thyssenkrupp, AJN Resources, Airbus, and Lufthansa in Focus
The stock market is preparing for a hot fall. While inflation figures show no sign of weakening, gold and silver are climbing to new record levels. Rising debt levels and growing geopolitical tensions are fueling this trend. So far, capital markets have largely held their ground without major losses. However, US President Donald Trump's trade policy has suffered a severe setback. With his plan to impose comprehensive tariffs on goods from almost all countries in the world, invoking an emergency law from 1977, he has clearly exceeded his powers, and the courts are now stepping in. One clear warning sign: volatility is high, and valuations have reached extreme levels. The Shiller P/E ratio for the S&P 500 now stands at 40, far above the historical range of 15 to 27 over the last 30 years - making 2025 an absolutely exceptional year in terms of overvaluation. We are on the lookout for promising stocks, and gold should not be overlooked as a strategic portfolio addition.
