Is the price nightmare at Vonovia coming to an end? The "concrete gold" stock has lost more than 25% in recent weeks. Last week, analysts also cut their price targets. But there is some positive news as well. Could now be the right time to buy? Perhaps even in Globex Mining? The stock of the resource incubator has also pulled back in March and now offers an interesting entry opportunity. The company allows for a lower-risk investment in the field of resource exploration, and the news flow remains positive. And what about Standard Lithium? The stock is weak. Are investors losing patience?

Mining without excavators: Franco-Nevada, Triple Flag, and Globex Mining compared

  • Mining

After a long dry spell, mining stocks are back in vogue. However, operating mines comes with its own risks. Geological challenges, technical failures, rising energy costs, or labor strikes can quickly disrupt operations. There is, however, a clever alternative: so-called royalty and streaming companies. These firms benefit from mining activity without having to drill holes in the ground themselves. In this article, we compare three representatives of this business model across different size classes: Franco-Nevada, an established industry giant; Triple Flag Precious Metals, a mid-tier player; and Globex Mining Enterprises, a (still) small but particularly diversified challenger.

Underestimated prospects in the precious metals sector: Lahontan Gold, Barrick Mining, and First Majestic Silver are the favorites

Market volatility has skyrocketed in the wake of new global armed conflicts. This trend is evident across all asset classes. Investors are currently focusing on the price of oil and the question of what impact high prices will have on the real economy. In contrast, precious metal prices are proving to be very robust. With gold trading above USD 5,000 and silver above USD 80, record margins are on the cards for producers such as Barrick and First Majestic, despite rising costs. An investment in exploration company Lahontan Gold, which plans to start production in 2027, appears even more lucrative.

Equinor, Lahontan Gold, Venture Global – Oil and precious metals poised for a new boom

The geopolitical escalation in the Middle East is sending shock waves through the markets. As the conflict surrounding Iran widens, concerns are growing about massive disruptions in the global energy market. The Strait of Hormuz, through which around 20% of global oil trade passes, is increasingly in the spotlight. While stock markets are reacting nervously, traditional crisis beneficiaries such as oil and the safe-haven metals gold and silver are profiting. Investors are seeking protection from geopolitical risks, inflation, and potential supply bottlenecks. Should the conflict continue to escalate, energy and precious metal stocks could be among the biggest winners in the new geopolitical reality.

It had been building for weeks, and now it has become a reality. Israel, together with its ally, the United States of America, launched an attack on Iran. The mullah regime responded with counterstrikes, further escalating the situation. The markets reacted with panic. The price of gold rose by more than 3%, while oil shot up by double digits. Should the conflict widen, and with the Strait of Hormuz already closed, severe disruptions are looming, particularly in the oil market, which is likely to lead to further price explosions.

Debt reduction, geopolitical tailwinds, and a technical breakout in the energy sector are meeting structural supply shortages in precious metals and AI-driven demand for memory chips. While oil and gas producers are benefiting from "energy dominance" and tight supply conditions, silver explorers with high-grade projects offer leverage to the next upswing in precious metals. At the same time, semiconductor stocks are igniting the next stage of the AI supercycle, driven by scarcity, rising prices, and exploding data center demand.

The Next Commodity Price Surge: How Rio Tinto, Globex Mining, and Glencore Are Positioned for the Supercycle

Commodity markets are undergoing a historic turning point. While precious metals are shining as safe havens, the energy transition continues to drive lithium demand. But the real pressure point lies in critical raw materials such as antimony or tungsten, whose supply is extremely strained due to geopolitical conflicts. This fragmentation of the supercycle is creating unique opportunities for strategically positioned companies. Three key players are ready to benefit: Rio Tinto, Globex Mining, and Glencore.

Crash as a reality check for AMD and First Majestic: Why silver and AI are correcting while Almonty stands firm on rising tungsten prices

Market sentiment has shifted sharply in recent weeks: what began as profit-taking has developed into a real stress test for investors' nerves. The sectors most celebrated in recent months – AI stocks and precious metals – have taken a beating. Yet amid this turmoil, one phenomenon is emerging that should make investors sit up and take notice: the tungsten market is completely decoupled from the crash and, seemingly immune to Wall Street panic, is hitting new highs. Tungsten, the indispensable backbone of Western defense and heavy industry, is becoming more expensive while almost everything else is falling. In this environment, Almonty Industries is emerging as a quasi-monopolist with excellent prospects to deliver long-term gains for its shareholders.

Uranium rush in the Athabasca Basin: Stallion Uranium follows in the footsteps of NexGen Energy – an opportunity for Cameco too?

The global energy industry is currently experiencing a renaissance that seemed unthinkable just a few years ago. Driven by the insatiable appetite for electricity of AI data centers and the geopolitical imperative to become independent of fossil fuel imports, nuclear power is making a comeback as an indispensable source of base load power. However, the nuclear power comeback is facing a harsh reality: the supply of nuclear fuel is lagging behind demand. While reactors are running longer and new ones are coming online, suppliers' inventories are running low. This structural supply deficit has sparked a race for the few remaining world-class deposits. The center of this search is in Saskatchewan, Canada, more specifically in the southwestern Athabasca Basin. A clear hierarchy has emerged here. Industry giant Cameco must produce, developer NexGen Energy has proven the geological potential, and explorer Stallion Uranium has secured the strategically crucial land package to cause a sensation with the next big discovery. We get to the bottom of the details.

The 2026 stock market year is only a few days old, but developments are unfolding rapidly. Two sectors, precious metals and energy, are particularly noteworthy. Geopolitical tensions, growing government debt, and ongoing inflation risks continue to favor gold and other precious metals as stable stores of value. At the same time, the explosive rise in energy demand driven by artificial intelligence, data centers, and electromobility is providing structural tailwinds in the energy sector. While supply and infrastructure are reaching their physical limits in many places, raw materials and energy sources are gaining strategic importance. For investors, this could also result in an attractive risk-reward profile in 2026.
