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.

Over 100% upside potential and takeover speculation! Could raw materials gem Power Metallic Mines follow in the footsteps of Norilsk Nickel?
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
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.

Antimony Resources – Beneficiary of a bottleneck market
Antimony is one of the most underestimated bottleneck commodities in the world. China accounts for over 70% of global production, and export restrictions have temporarily driven prices up to around USD 60,000 per ton. Western nations are urgently seeking domestic sources for military, electronics, and flame-retardant applications. Antimony Resources is delivering high-grade drilling results, advancing an initial resource estimate, and is fully financed. In a market defined by extreme scarcity, this is precisely where a strategic beneficiary could emerge.

Costs are key: How Barrick Mining, Kobo Resources, and B2Gold are delivering record margins
The gold price's record-breaking run shows no signs of stopping. While the precious metals markets are being fueled by geopolitical tensions and expectations of interest rate cuts, a decisive change is taking shape beneath the surface. The era of easy profits in established mining regions is coming to an end. Rising production costs and shrinking grades are putting pressure on the margins of many producers. The real winners are those with projects in Africa. A closer look at the operational base of Barrick Mining, Kobo Resources, and B2Gold reveals why these companies in particular have the potential to turn the current gold rush into cash.

Great opportunities in Central Africa: DRC Gold, AngloGold Ashanti, and Gold Fields in Focus
We are witnessing a historic rally in the price of gold, which is fundamentally changing both the balance sheets of established corporations and the strategies of emerging explorers. As recent analyses by PwC and McKinsey show, the precious metal has evolved from a pure hedge against inflation to a strategic guarantee of security. Forecasts by leading investment banks Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan suggest that, in the wake of ongoing central bank purchases and currency devaluations, a rapid rise to as much as USD 6,300 per ounce by the end of the year is possible. Experts at State Street Global Advisors also point to the escalating global debt crisis as the primary driver of precious metal prices. In this phase, DRC Gold's realignment marks a decisive turning point in the development of African gold reserves. The company has acquired the option to acquire majority interests in the high-grade Giro and Nizi projects in the Democratic Republic of Congo through a binding agreement. This positions the explorer in the renowned Kilo-Moto greenstone belt in the immediate vicinity of the world-class Kibali mine, which is operated as a joint venture by AngloGold Ashanti, Barrick Mining, and the state-owned company SOKIMO, and allows it to leverage the pull of the industry giants for its own growth.
