The gold and silver frenzy continues! Barrick, RZOLV Technologies, First Majestic, and Endeavour Silver
Who would have thought? While much of the Christian world is celebrating a quiet Christmas, the precious metals market is booming. Gold has surged to USD 4,530, and silver, completely wild, has even broken through the USD 75 mark. Both metals are setting new all-time highs and displaying chart patterns not seen in years. Market participants are surprised by this sudden "knot bursting". Yet the reason seems obvious to many: for years, gold and silver prices were kept low in order to conceal the astronomical expansion of money supply and to cover up the underlying inflation. With returns now ranging from 70 to 140%, price increases are becoming evident that can only be explained by a long-overdue revaluation and an acute shortage of physical supply. Now it remains to be seen who can stay afloat in the flood. For mining companies and service providers, the time has come to close long-standing valuation gaps. We take a closer look.

Top tips for 2026 – Critical metals and armaments! DroneShield, Pasinex, RENK, and Heidelberger Druck in focus
In 2025, there was a pronounced rally in critical metals starting in the summer. This was largely triggered by China, which imposed export restrictions on rare metals and strategic raw materials in response to arbitrary tariff demands from the White House. The metal markets reacted with strong upward movements, and the procurement centers of Western industry reacted even more severely. In view of the needs of the near future, a large number of properties would have to be brought into production in the areas of copper, graphite, lithium, uranium, zinc, and rare earths. However, it takes around 10 years to set up a mine, including all permits and preliminary investigations. Because this is far too long for the current needs, the market is looking at projects that are about to start production or are already producing. We offer a few ideas from the supply chain and potential customers.

Big news at the turn of the year! Nordex, Novo Nordisk, AJN Resources!
Is now the time for gold explorers? The price of gold remains firmly above USD 4,300 per ounce, and shares of gold producers are performing well, perhaps even a little too well. Investors looking to continue participating in the gold bull market may therefore turn their attention to exploration companies. One such candidate is AJN Resources. The stock has already moved higher, yet still offers upside potential, supported by takeover speculation. Novo Nordisk has submitted an application for US approval following convincing Phase 3 results, a step that would be strategically significant for the Company. Meanwhile, Nordex remains one of the positive surprises of 2025, having reported another major order. The key question now is how far can the rally go?

GOLD or SILVER? Both? Barrick Mining, First Majestic Silver, and Silver North Resources in focus!
Gold and silver are not taking a break just before Christmas. The prices of precious metals are rising and rising. For silver, some experts' price target of USD 100 no longer seems unrealistic. First Majestic Silver's stock has performed even better. There is little choice among silver producers, and prices seem to be running hot. A shift to explorers in the coming year would come as no surprise. Silver North Resources is entering the new year with full coffers and positive results and aims to resume drilling as soon as possible. The Company is active in legally secure Canada, and its shares are attractive for investors. Those who missed the opportunity to invest in Barrick Mining in 2025 missed out on a threefold increase in value. The Company is also likely to have a few surprises in store in 2026. Perhaps even a hostile takeover?

Spectacular gains in 2025: Almonty up 8x, Rheinmetall up 2x - is TKMS next? Let profits run?
Commodity stocks and defense shares were among investors' favorites in 2025. Rheinmetall shares have more than doubled this year and have even increased tenfold since the outbreak of the war between Russia and Ukraine. An especially impressive rally was delivered by Almonty Industries, whose share price rose eightfold. The signs continue to point to growth, as the Company has key unique selling points and significant geopolitical relevance in the supply of strategic metals that are urgently needed in the West and are essential for the defense industry and high-tech sector. The necessary security of supply is also attracting governments as buyers. The development of stock market newcomer TKMS is also exciting. The order books of the manufacturer of submarines and naval vessels are filling up. The motto for these stocks in 2026 is: stay on board.

Nickel sulfides: The formula for profitability – why Power Metallic Mines is hot on the heels of Talon Metals and Magna
The nickel market is currently undergoing a split that offers investors clear guidance: while countless projects are failing due to low ore grades, skyrocketing energy costs, or politically unstable locations, a small group of winners is emerging. The formula for success is high-grade sulfide deposits in North America. Companies such as Talon Metals, which became known through a supply deal with Tesla, and Magna Mining in Canada's historic Sudbury Basin have proven that this geological constellation is the key to profitability. Power Metallic Mines is following in their footsteps. With its NISK project in Quebec, the Company has the geological ingredients of the two companies mentioned above, but is trading at a significant discount on the stock market, reflecting the past rather than the potential confirmed by drilling and the entry of several mining billionaires.

Halo effect in Côte d'Ivoire: How Kobo Resources is maturing into the next big gold story in the shadow of Perseus and the Lundin Group
In the world of geologists and commodity prospectors, there is an unwritten law: the best finds are made in the shadow of existing world-class mines. Geology knows no license boundaries, and where millions of ounces of gold are already being mined, the probability of further discoveries is highest. This phenomenon, known as the "halo effect," is currently playing out in textbook fashion in Côte d'Ivoire. The West African country has become the new darling of international mining capital. While Australian producer Perseus Mining is demonstrating the enormous potential of the soil just a few kilometers away with the Yaouré mine, and Montage Gold is showing how attractive the region is to investors with the entry of the legendary Lundin Group, Kobo Resources is positioning itself right in between. For investors, the small explorer offers a rare opportunity to bet on the same geology and jurisdiction as the billion-dollar corporations, but with significantly more attractive leverage.

Mega rally in 2026 with artificial intelligence, chips, and storage solutions: Oracle, Graphano Energy, Broadcom, and Infineon
The year 2025 is drawing to an end. This year, the focus was clearly on the shares of AI providers in the areas of storage solutions, infrastructure, and databases. Investment banks see this sector as a potential driver of rising stock markets in 2026 as well. Will there be a correction in the first quarter? No one knows, because apart from the minor customs uncertainty in April 2025, there has been no serious decline in the international capital markets so far. This is surprising, because inflation remains high, interest rates are rising, and commodity prices are galloping away. These are all indications of higher input prices and falling margins. Which stocks are still making good money?
