War in focus, silver in the portfolio: Why Newmont, Silver Viper Minerals, and First Majestic Silver are now must-own stocks

The escalating war in Iran has suddenly catapulted precious metals into the center of investor attention. While gold, as a classic crisis hedge, has reached new heights, silver is undergoing an unprecedented revaluation. It combines the security of a precious metal with its irreplaceable role as a high-tech raw material for photovoltaics, e-mobility, and AI infrastructure. Geopolitical supply chain risks are exacerbating an already existing supply deficit, while industrial demand is reaching record levels. Investors are now wondering which companies are best positioned in this environment. We therefore take a look at the strategies of Newmont, Silver Viper Minerals, and First Majestic Silver.

Antimony Resources: 10,000 m of drilling, CAD 7 million in cash, USD 3 billion in raw material potential – Why this stock is hot

  • Mining
  • antimony
  • Defense
  • hightech
  • flameretardant
  • geopolitics

While the global commodities world is fixated on the price development of copper, gold, and tungsten, a revolution is taking place on a completely different front. Antimony, classified as a critical raw material by both the EU and the US, has become a geopolitical bargaining chip and thus one of the most exciting investment opportunities of the coming years. In this environment, a small Canadian company is making headway. Antimony Resources is developing one of North America's most promising antimony deposits at its Bald Hill project in New Brunswick. A new zone was recently discovered during construction work, while work on the first resource estimate is ongoing. Measured by its potential, the current market valuation appears more than moderate.

Gold price in war mode! This gold stock is exploding! Is Desert Gold's 70% rally just the beginning?

With the attack by the US and Israel on Iran, the gold price has definitively ended its breather. On Monday, the precious metal easily surpassed the USD 5,300 per troy ounce mark, bringing it within reach of its record high of USD 5,595. This has added further momentum to the rally in Desert Gold's shares. Even without a rising gold price, however, there are strong arguments for further upside in the stock. After several years of negative headlines, gold companies operating in Mali appear to have finally broken the deadlock. Desert Gold's shares show significant catch-up potential, and the recent 70% rally over the past weeks may only mark the beginning of a broader revaluation. A takeover by B2Gold, for example, also seems conceivable again.

The Iran War is driving the war economy – Almonty Industries, Rheinmetall, and the RENK Group under scrutiny

The Iran war is causing oil prices to skyrocket, supply chains to break down, and the global order to falter. While shockwaves are rippling through the energy markets, a contrary movement is emerging on the stock market. Investors are flocking to the winners of this new era. Not only is demand for state-of-the-art defense technology being reignited, but the battle for strategic raw materials such as tungsten, which is essential for armor and guided missiles, has also flared up again. In this environment, three companies at the heart of this development are coming into focus: tungsten supplier Almonty Industries, systems giant Rheinmetall, and drive specialist RENK Group.

Norilsk Nickel (Nornickel) is regarded as the benchmark for multi-metal projects in the global mining industry. Anyone aiming to approach the scale of this mining giant sets highly ambitious goals. This is precisely the case with Power Metallic Mines. The company reaffirmed this positioning at a recent investor conference. Its latest drilling results were once again spectacular, indicating that something big may be taking shape. Power Metallic Mines controls a world-class multi-metal deposit containing copper, platinum, palladium, cobalt, gold, and silver. Analysts are enthusiastic and see upside potential of more than 100%. They are also fueling speculation about a possible takeover.

Uranium as a geopolitical bargaining chip after the Hormuz shock - Standard Uranium, Kazatomprom, and F3 Uranium in focus

  • renewableenergy

The escalation in the Middle East, which culminated in a de facto blockade of the Strait of Hormuz following the death of Iranian leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has triggered a global energy shock. With around one-fifth of global oil consumption passing through this bottleneck, oil prices have skyrocketed. In their latest market forecasts, analysts at JPMorgan warn of scenarios in which the price could rise to USD 130 or, in extreme cases, up to USD 300 per barrel. This is hitting Asian industrial nations particularly hard and has ruthlessly exposed the vulnerability of international supply chains for fossil fuels. In this environment, uranium is becoming a decisive geopolitical bargaining chip, as nuclear power, at least since the recent conflagration in the Middle East, must no longer be seen merely as a measure of climate protection, but as an instrument of national security and energy sovereignty. We present three uranium companies and highlight which stocks are most interesting for investors.

New EU standards aim to secure the future of e-mobility! BYD, Nio, Group Eleven Resources, and VW

With the Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Regulation (AFIR), the European Union has been creating binding minimum standards for publicly accessible charging points since the beginning of 2026. In addition, new subsidies have been introduced in many EU countries to promote e-mobility, even though the coffers are empty due to high defense spending. Meanwhile, the overall European vehicle market came under noticeable pressure in January. According to the latest data from the industry association ACEA, new vehicle registrations fell by just under 4% compared to the previous year, marking the first decline in months and reflecting the difficult overall market. However, a clear trend is emerging within this development: electrification is continuing to advance and shifting market shares in favor of battery electric vehicles. At the same time, the next Middle East conflict is unfolding, with oil prices rising sharply above USD 82 per barrel of Brent. This is providing a strong tailwind for alternative drive systems that can withstand global hysteria. Risk-conscious investors should now revise their portfolio structures.

Desert Gold Ventures – Hidden Gem in the Gold Supercycle

Gold has made an impressive comeback in recent quarters. Escalating geopolitical conflicts, fragile supply chains, continued high global government debt, and expansive fiscal programs in the US and Europe are fueling doubts about the long-term stability of paper currencies. Central banks are expanding their gold reserves, and institutional investors are increasing their strategic allocations. The price is trading close to historic highs, and this is precisely where a decisive lever comes into play. The higher the price level, the greater the profitability of new projects. Margins are expanding disproportionately, payback periods are shortening, and internal rates of return are skyrocketing. Developers with advanced projects, such as Desert Gold Ventures, are thus increasingly becoming the focus of the capital market.

The arms build-up accelerates – Iran, Israel, and the US escalate! Critical metals remain in focus with Almonty, Thales, and Hensoldt

US President Donald Trump has made the nuclear debate with Iran a top priority. After years of living with what it views as a significant threat from the Iranian regime, Israel is now aligning its strategic interests more closely with Western partners. Discussions increasingly revolve around containing Iran's influence and limiting its military capabilities. Whether this will be so easy is doubtful, as the Revolutionary Guards have developed into a powerful force over the last 10 years, and Russia is also likely to appear on the horizon as a friend of the Iranians. For financial markets, this constellation implies renewed uncertainty and elevated volatility. Historically, such phases have tended to benefit defense and armaments companies. For marathon runner Almonty Industries, the environment appears particularly favorable: geopolitical tensions, rising tungsten prices, and governments under pressure to secure strategic raw materials are reinforcing the investment case. The momentum in defense and critical metals markets continues.

Silver as a crisis investment: Silver Viper, Fresnillo, and Pan American Silver offer strategic potential, but which stock is the best?

Silver supply has not been able to meet demand for some time now, and now chaos in the Middle East is adding to the problem. Military escalation in the region has triggered a chain of events that is shaking the foundations of global supply security. The direct conflict between the US, Israel, and Iran has long since spread to the entire region, highlighting the geopolitical vulnerability of international supply chains. With the launch of the "Epic Fury" military operation and Iran's subsequent attacks on tankers in the Strait of Hormuz, the risk of prolonged stagflation for the global economy is growing. In this volatile environment, precious metals are benefiting as a strategic asset class. While investors are increasingly turning to crisis investments, Mexico, in particular, is benefiting in the silver sector, offering a reliable environment thanks to its centuries-old mining tradition and geographical distance from the current trouble spots. We present exciting stocks and focus on the hidden gem Silver Viper.
