Almonty Industries: The new Pillar of Western Raw Material Security
The Western world is facing a raw material crisis with explosive geopolitical implications. In recent months, China has drastically tightened its export controls on critical minerals, affecting primarily strategically important metals such as gallium, germanium, antimony, and, most recently, tungsten. These raw materials are indispensable for the defense industry, semiconductor production, and high-tech manufacturing. Amid this tense situation, one company that is positioning itself as an important part of the solution is stepping into the spotlight: Almonty Industries (TSX: AII). The tungsten specialist operates strategically located tungsten projects in South Korea, Portugal, and Spain and will soon play a key role in supplying Western industries, as global tungsten supplies are expected to run critically low in the near future.

Urgent: NATO approves largest rearmament program since the Cold War - Almonty, Hensoldt, Rheinmetall
The news is a bombshell: In light of an acute threat from Russia, NATO is opening the money floodgates. The most extensive rearmament since 1990 not only provides for a massive increase in conventional military capabilities, but also reveals the dependence of modern armed forces on critical raw materials – especially tungsten. The decision was made during a meeting of NATO defense ministers in Brussels and has far-reaching consequences. For investors, but also for all of us.

Almonty shares are unstoppable! Tungsten price hits 12-year high! Are analysts too conservative?
The commodity stock of the year is poised for its next leap: Almonty Industries. Yesterday, the tungsten gem surged above EUR 2, reaching a new all-time high. However, this is likely a stopover on the road to revaluation. Analysts continue to see 80% upside potential. There are both short- and long-term price drivers: Tungsten appears to be overtaking rare earths in terms of desirability and scarcity. China is limiting exports and driving the price to a 12-year high. The US is alarmed and buying tungsten on a large scale. Almonty is the direct beneficiary. Experts are calling the latest deal with a US defense contractor "unprecedented." Almonty is about to bring the largest tungsten mine outside of China into operation, plans a NASDAQ listing, and aims to add molybdenum to its portfolio. Are the analysts' estimates too conservative? Will a complete takeover follow?

Defense explodes, commodities boom, gold shines: Rheinmetall, Globex Mining, and Barrick Mining benefit
Three explosive markets dominate investor interest: defense, critical raw materials, and gold. Geopolitical rifts and economic upheavals are fueling these sectors like never before in decades. Defense giants are benefiting from an unprecedented wave of rearmament. Commodity markets are experiencing a new supercycle driven by structural demand pressure and tight supply. At the same time, capital investors are fleeing en masse to the safe haven of gold, whose price is inexorably breaking new records. These trends define the investment opportunities for 2025. We, therefore, take a closer look at Rheinmetall, Globex Mining, and Barrick Mining.

Rethinking country risk! BHP Group, Commerzbank, AJN Resources
Commodities are in demand like never before! Gold is trading above the USD 3,000 mark, and the World Bank forecasts that cobalt consumption will rise to 344,000 tons by 2030 - equivalent to annual growth of around 9.6%. Over 70% of cobalt comes from the Democratic Republic of Congo – a country that is repeatedly viewed critically in Western media. But what are the real disadvantages of this location? Which mining jurisdictions are safe? Where are the returns?

With gold over USD 3,400 - 100% gains in no time: Gerresheimer, Desert Gold, Hensoldt, and RENK
Rumors about Jerome Powell's resignation were circulating at the beginning of the week. Described as very "hawkish," meaning he strictly aligns interest rates with inflation, he is an uncomfortable contemporary for President Donald Trump. The US administration needs a lot of money to get the outdated infrastructure and the entire economy back on track. Numerous campaign promises for a flourishing America can only be fulfilled by the flamboyant frontman if sufficient funds are available. This is a difficult undertaking due to the very high level of government debt. The credit rating agency Moody's is not intimidated by the president's threats and recently downgraded the US credit rating by one notch to AA1. Triple-A status is now history. This is a perfect setup for gold, with the precious metal rising again to over USD 3,400. Where are the opportunities for investors?

Alarm bells ringing for rare earths and record highs for hydrogen! Hensoldt, Plug Power, Mercedes, and BMW partner European Lithium
Rare earths are increasingly being used as a weapon in geopolitics. "The last remaining stocks will likely be used up within four to six weeks. Then parts of production will have to be shut down," warns Christian Grimmelt of the consulting firm Berylls by AlixPartners in Wirtschaftswoche. This could benefit European Lithium's stock. The Company not only aims to supply lithium to BMW but is also developing a rare earths project in Greenland. Is the defense industry also affected by the shortage of raw materials? Perhaps. For now, the FOMO rally is driving defense stocks to new all-time highs. But caution is advised: according to analysts, Hensoldt shares, for example, have a 30% downside risk. Plug Power, on the other hand, has had to cope with many setbacks in recent months. Its shares are at rock bottom. Could a milestone in its home market bring about a turnaround?

Madness: New tariffs - no, yes, or maybe not? Trump moves thyssenkrupp, Power Metallic, RENK, and Plug Power
The stock markets have rarely seen such volatility. At this point, there are multiple shifts in direction on every trading day, triggered by the latest headlines from the White House. Last week was almost entirely about tariffs, with Putin's war and Trump's peace promises already forgotten. The world continues to live in uncertainty due to the prevailing war scenario, with no stone left unturned. This environment makes it clear: secure supply routes for raw materials will be essential in the coming period. In the defense industry in particular, metal shortages could become a showstopper. Investors can benefit from the current trends through careful selection as Western industrialized nations are stepping on the gas. Where are the big return generators hiding?
