Two new mines in 12 months – Analysts give the thumbs up: Almonty, MP Materials, Rheinmetall
The rush for shares in defense and strategic metals drove prices in 2025. However, the market also gave premature praise. In the case of companies such as MP Materials and Rheinmetall in particular, the market has already anticipated many future revenues. Tungsten producer Almonty Industries is also one of the stock market winners of the year. However, the difference between Almonty and other stocks in the critical metals sector that have risen sharply is that Almonty will also be making a significant operational impact in 2025. The Sangdong mine in South Korea is considered a groundbreaking project for the supply of critical raw materials. The last time a mine of this size went into production was in the 1970s. What opportunities does this mega-project offer investors?

Exploding commodity prices meet NASDAQ hysteria! Nordex, European Lithium, Siemens Energy, and Standard Lithium in focus
Metals, hi-tech, and defense - an explosive mix! All three of these industrial sectors are facing serious challenges. The scarcity of critical raw materials from a limited number of sources is leading to sharp price increases and jeopardizing important supply chains. Europe is responding with a collective rethink, as dependence on rare metals such as lithium and rare earths is increasingly becoming a strategic and political risk. A disruption in supply could abruptly halt the market penetration of electric vehicles. The recent extreme rise in raw material prices is driving companies such as European Lithium and Standard Lithium through the roof, while buyers of critical metals such as Nordex and Siemens Energy are finding themselves in difficulty. We shed some light on the situation!

AI mania, critical metals, and gold! Keep an eye on blockbuster stocks such as BASF, RZOLV Technologies, and Barrick Mining
The breathtaking advances in high-tech and artificial intelligence require a strong focus on raw materials companies in order to provide the necessary strategic metals in a timely manner. Securing supply chains is all the more important for Western industries because the availability of raw materials is subject to geopolitical skirmishes between some countries that still control the decisive masses in critical areas. This is particularly true for China and Russia. If nothing arrives in the West, production lines come to a standstill or company managers have to accept expensive detours. For equity investors, it is always worthwhile to take a clear look at the key levers. However, the focus is also on the manufacturing processes.

Buy recommendation and major order: Evotec, Nordex, Desert Gold
Are more than 100% share price gains in Nordex still not enough? Apparently not, according to analysts. In addition, the wind turbine manufacturer has secured a major order. Will the rally continue? Analysts believe that Desert Gold shares have the potential to rise by well over 100%. In their view, Desert Gold may be on the verge of one of the most significant gold discoveries in West Africa in recent years, none of which is reflected in the current share price. And what is Evotec doing? The share is trading at its lowest level since 2016. The milestone payments in the current year do not appear to be enough for investors. What do analysts say?

Trump makes peace – Maybe? Strong profit prospects for BYD, Pasinex Resources, and DroneShield
In the daily battle for returns, selecting the right assets is becoming increasingly complex. Markets have risen sharply despite the generally sluggish sentiment in global economies. First, there was the celebration of Donald Trump, then the bull market due to lower-than-expected tariffs, and most recently, a super rally in AI and high-tech stocks. Defense and armaments stocks have also been consistently on the shopping list for two years now. After 25 years of disarmament and a 180-degree political shift among left-green parties, defense has suddenly become the cure-all for Western societies. For years, frowned upon and subject to lawsuits in Germany's Constitutional Court, arms exports now appear to represent the highest ethical stage a company can reach. But now a taboo word is making the rounds: "peace." And with that, defense stocks are once again treated like clearance items, and prices are falling. A politically fueled boom and bust cycle at its finest. Rheinmetall is now even included in ESG-oriented funds - what a farce. Very few can still see clearly through this nine-lane highway of contradictions, but we are here to help.

Is the next super mine emerging here? Power Metallic Mines, Vale, Rio Tinto
History has shown what happens when resource properties turn into super mines. Many projects developed or acquired by companies such as Vale or Rio Tinto, for example, have been in production for many years and generate enormous returns. The Canadian company Power Metallic Mines, active in the province of Québec, has also been able to continuously expand its NISK project in recent years. Now, the team led by CEO Terry Lynch sees even more potential there. Here, we discuss what gigantic raw material discoveries can mean and why Power Metallic Mines' polymetallic deposit is considered particularly interesting.

Crisis investments – Why anything can happen today: AJN Resources, Newmont, B2Gold
Volatility is increasing – and not just on the capital markets. Geopolitically, and even in German domestic politics, which is actually relatively calm by international standards, completely new developments are suddenly conceivable. When the range of possibilities expands so dramatically on many levels, uncertainty grows. Ten years ago, the US withdrawal from NATO would have been a gradual process, but today, Trump and his ministers are making their intentions abundantly clear. Investors should protect themselves against these new eventualities and consider gold as an investment.

Long-term megatrends instead of short-lived hopes for peace: The stable foundation of Almonty Industries, Rheinmetall, and RENK Group
The recent nervousness on the markets is far removed from strategic reality. While short-term hopes for peace are temporarily weighing on defense stocks, long-term geopolitical risks and the pent-up demand of European armed forces are driving up the order books of key suppliers and system providers. At the same time, demand for critical raw materials, advanced technologies, and modern military drivetrain solutions remains robust, independent of the political headlines. This fundamental strength is particularly evident across the value chain, from the strategic metal tungsten to ammunition production and high-performance drive systems for military vehicles. Three companies that embody this continuity are Almonty Industries, Rheinmetall, and the RENK Group.

Silver better than gold – things can move quickly here: Silver North Resources, First Majestic Silver, Hecla Mining
Investors like it when companies benefit from multiple growth drivers. In the case of stocks from the silver sector, these include growing industrial demand in the wake of electrification and high-tech applications, and the increasing importance of precious metals as an asset class. While gold is considered a classic crisis insurance, investors do not automatically think of silver in this context. Yet silver has also benefited from crises in the past. We show why silver is an interesting investment right now and present three companies from this promising sector.

Peace plan for Ukraine! Losses at Rheinmetall, RENK, and Hensoldt - Are Oklo and Kobo Resources already a buy?
The capital markets are caught in a political squeeze. The billion-dollar announcements for rearmament among NATO states had driven dream-like share price gains at Rheinmetall & Co., in some cases delivering annual returns of over 600%. With the latest publications hinting at potential peace options, however, those days now appear to be over. Investors are suddenly reassessing the overvaluation that has been evident for months and are taking profits. Rheinmetall, in particular, has been unable to reach its high of EUR 2,005 for quite some time. Further turbulence appears to be looming here. At Oklo and Kobo Resources, on the other hand, the correction phases seem to be nearing an end. We go into more detail below.
