Gold in focus, Defense accelerates again – Agnico Eagle, Golden Cariboo, Hensoldt, and RENK in focus
The daily theatrics are hard to beat. US President Donald Trump is engaging in slapstick and snubbing long-standing trading partners. In his own country, he leaves no stone unturned in his efforts to counterbalance the nearly USD 36 trillion national debt through savings and additional revenues. This creates great uncertainty in the stock markets and causes economic institutes to calculate more precisely whether, instead of growth, a recession may be looming. But perhaps it is all just a test to force political partners to the table. However, the threat of inflation means that precious metals remain in focus. Unresolved geopolitical conflicts also continue to drive defense machinery forward. Here, a volume in the triple-digit billion range is expected, which will result in revenue in the coming years. The train is running at full steam!

Tariff madness drives gold! Caution advised with Barrick, Globex Mining, Mutares, and Steyr
Every day brings a new spectacle from the White House. What resembles a farce is, unfortunately, a harsh reality. The new president, Donald Trump, leaves no doubt about who dictates the conditions in global trade. But even Mr. Universe has to row back now and then because experts have a clever piece of advice or two on how to avoid completely running the US into the ground. After all, the proclaimed tariffs threaten a severe cooling of the global economy and a surge in inflation - a perfect opportunity for precious metal investments. Due to the general uncertainty, defense stocks also remain in focus. We do the math.

Tungsten supply remains challenging: Almonty Industries strategically well-positioned
For years, observers have been calling for Europe to develop its own dedicated raw materials strategy. It has been clear for more than a decade that Germany's industry, in particular, needs security of supply. However, instead of securing tangible ownership or at least reliable partnerships, the focus has long been on fair-weather diplomacy and the "principle of hope". With the Critical Raw Materials Act (CRMA), the EU aims to mine at least 10% of its required strategic raw materials domestically by 2030. Furthermore, 40% of this is to be processed within the community. For Lewis Black, CEO of tungsten and molybdenum producer Almonty Industries, these are steps in the right direction. But are they coming too late?

Volkswagen, European Lithium, Xiaomi – Who benefits from the tariff hammer
With the surprising tariff exemptions for certain product groups like smartphones and computers, the US government provided some relief for the global financial markets over the weekend, which even pushed the German leading index DAX back towards the 21,000-point mark. However, the next shock could be on its way. As early as this week, Trump is expected to address the tariffs on semiconductors.

Gold and defense at RECORD LEVELS: Deutz, Barrick Gold, and Desert Gold – Who will multiply?
Gold is breaking record after record. Goldman Sachs has now raised its forecast for the price per troy ounce. Barrick and Newmont woke up last week and showed that large investors are also investing in gold mining stocks again. The takeover candidate Desert Gold offers an opportunity for multiplication. The rally has largely passed the stock by, which has been in a sideways trend for over a year. Analysts see an attractive risk-reward ratio and recommend buying the stock. Deutz is also receiving buy recommendations. Analysts view the announced acquisition as a strategic move with the potential for electrifying military vehicles in the future. And what is the gold heavyweight Barrick doing?

PRICE SURGE! Gold, Copper, Nordex, TUI, Benton Resources
Nordex reported a positive order intake amid the general recovery rally. The stock reacted yesterday with an intraday gain of over 5%. Analysts see further upside potential, and the stock has momentum. This also applies again to the gold price, which quickly regained the USD 3,100 mark. In times like these, gold is likely to remain in demand. Benton Resources should benefit from this. Investors betting on this "small Barrick Gold" are betting on both gold and copper. There are good reasons for rising prices for both commodities. This also applies to the Benton share. The historical resource estimate of the project in Canada may be far too low. At TUI, management appears confident in the Company's outlook, as board members have again bought shares. Analysts also see upside potential but warn of the potential impact of an economic slowdown.

Tariffs, rare earths, Greenland, and Trump! BYD, European Lithium, VW, and thyssenkrupp in focus
The cat is out of the bag! Donald Trump is imposing tariffs of 20 to 34%, thus snubbing his transatlantic trade partners. What has worked well for years is now being put to the test. It did not take long for reactions to the extensive tariff plans to materialize. The state and party leadership in Beijing responded to Trump's ultimatum by announcing counter-tariffs of 34 to 84%. This means that the escalation spiral in the trade dispute between the USA and China continues. The EU had already imposed some additional tariffs in March and is now waiting to see whether the US administration will change its mind. Meanwhile, the focus is once again on rare earths, as China is now imposing export restrictions on this precious commodity. Trump's imperialism is also targeting Greenland again. This is an interesting situation for investors.

Gold price to USD 3,500 and a million-dollar order! Steyr Motors, Barrick Gold, and Golden Cariboo Resources
Analysts at Goldman Sachs currently see an opportunity to enter the gold market. The experts believe that a price increase to USD 3,500 is possible. Hidden gem Golden Cariboo Resources should also benefit from this. The Company is active in legally secure Canada, and the stock appears undervalued. Important drilling results are expected later this year. Caution is advised with Barrick Gold, however. The stock was recently recommended by TV presenter Jim Cramer. However, the US stock market expert is considered a contrarian indicator, especially on social media. Meanwhile, there is positive news from abroad for Steyr Motors. A multi-million-dollar order is pushing the rumors of BaFin investigations into the background.

Gold defies the crash – Tocvan Ventures with historic results
The US government's imposition of punitive tariffs on a total of 185 countries caused global stock markets to falter. The German leading index, DAX, alone lost around 17% of its value since the announcement, leaving the psychological mark of 20,000 points far behind. Once again, gold has proven to be a safe haven, regaining the USD 3,000 per ounce mark after a brief pullback. Due to the escalating trade wars, rising inflation, and unrelenting geopolitical tensions, the precious metal is likely to continue its upward cycle. As the underlying commodity gains strength, gold stocks present massive upside potential. Tocvan Ventures, in particular, has recently made a name for itself with impressive gold discoveries.
