US industrial policy at a turning point – how shareholders stand to benefit: MP Materials, Intel, Almonty
The administration of US President Donald Trump has shaken things up considerably in its first few months in office. Some changes unsettle observers, while others could serve as a blueprint for other economic regions such as the EU. A good example of the latter scenario is the US's direct investments in companies that are essential to critical supply chains. Examples include rare earths producer MP Materials, chip developer Intel, and lithium company Lithium Americas – the US now holds shares in all three companies. We analyze the strategy behind this policy and what it could mean for other suppliers of critical metals, such as tungsten producer Almonty Industries.

SHARE PRICE EXPLOSION at Standard Lithium, European Lithium, MP Materials! These commodity stocks are outshining Barrick Mining!
It does not always have to be gold! Barrick has gained around 80% so far this year. The following commodity stocks are outperforming it significantly. European Lithium's share price has exploded by over 100% since Friday. Initially, a share buyback sparked the euphoria, then came the bombshell: Reuters reported a possible US government investment in Critical Metals. European Lithium holds the majority of the Company, which is focused on the exploration of a massive rare earths project in Greenland. The impact of a US entry was already demonstrated by MP Materials this summer, where Apple is also involved. Standard Lithium has gained an impressive 200% in six months. How far will the boom in critical raw materials drive these stocks?

Gold boom boosts critical metals! Another 100% with Power Metallic, BYD, Hensoldt and RENK
The geopolitical situation continues to escalate, but the stock markets continue to boom! Trade conflicts, sanctions, and military tensions dominate the headlines, but behind the front lines of a new Cold War, another competition has long been raging: the battle for access to critical metals. Without copper, lithium, nickel, cobalt, or rare earths, not only would the e-mobility revolution come to a standstill, but defense technologies, digitalization, and the energy transition would also grind to a halt. Supply chains are coming under increasing pressure from geopolitical power games, and the battle for resources is becoming a key strategic factor in a multipolar world order. For Western industrialized nations, security of supply is becoming a matter of survival, and for investors, this is creating new opportunities. Anyone looking for tomorrow's winners today should keep a close eye on the global raw materials poker game.

From ore to energy: How BYD, Power Metallic Mines, and Siemens Energy are benefiting from the energy transition
The global energy transition is not only sparking hope but also a race for scarce raw materials. Nickel, cobalt, copper, lithium, and rare earths are becoming the backbone of batteries and wind turbines, while geopolitical tensions over supply chains are driving up prices. Those who position themselves in time could benefit from the redistribution of global power. This is particularly exciting for companies that either secure access to these resources, develop technologies for their use, or play a decisive role in the value chain, such as BYD, Power Metallic Mines, and Siemens Energy.

China's leverage: Why Rheinmetall is struggling, European Lithium is benefiting, and BYD remains confident
The next wave of global conflicts will not be fought with weapons, but with export licenses. At the heart of this geopolitical struggle are critical metals without which no high-tech weapon, electric vehicle, or wind turbine can function. China's recent tightening of export restrictions has exposed the West's brutal dependency, forcing governments and corporations alike to rapidly rethink and realign their supply chains. While some companies are fighting to secure their supply chains, others are consolidating their sources or celebrating their monopolistic position. Three companies exemplify this dichotomy: the recently pressured defense giant Rheinmetall, the rare earth and lithium beneficiary European Lithium, and the Chinese giant BYD.

Raw materials as the key to greater value creation: SQM, Lynas Rare Earths, Almonty Industries
Equality is a social construct. Reality, however, is diverse. This also means that some companies are in a much better starting position than others. In free markets, companies compete for market leadership and thus spur each other on to become better. However, some companies are in pole position for a variety of reasons and also have a few extra horsepower than their competitors. We use the examples of lithium specialist SQM, rare earths company Lynas Rare Earths, and innovative tungsten specialist Almonty Industries to explain which characteristics promise long-term advantages for companies and how investors can benefit.

How Volkswagen, Power Metallic Mines, and Nordex aim to conquer the trillion-dollar energy transition market
Electrification is driving an unprecedented demand for raw materials. Lithium, cobalt, and rare earths are the new oil - essential for electric vehicles, wind turbines, and our climate-neutral future. But global dependencies and trade conflicts threaten to disrupt supply chains. Those who secure strategic supplies will dominate the transition. Today, we look at three companies that are benefiting from the energy transition – Volkswagen, Power Metallic Mines and Nordex – and analyze their current situation.

Momentum stocks: D-Wave! Standard Lithium! European Lithium following in the footsteps of MP Materials!
Rare earth projects outside China are in high demand, as MP Materials has demonstrated with the entry of the US government, its cooperation with Apple, and its rise to a multi-billion-dollar corporation. Is a similarly rapid share price development possible for European Lithium? In any case, the stock is currently inexpensive, and the rare earth project in Greenland is delivering strong results. Standard Lithium shares have also performed strongly again recently. And analysts believe the stock has even more upside potential. And what is D-Wave doing? After breaking through the USD 20 mark, the stock is currently consolidating. Operationally, the quantum high-flyer continues to go full throttle, and analysts remain bullish.

Who benefits from the customs agreement? Volkswagen, BASF, and Globex Mining
Is the customs agreement between the US and the EU a warning shot, as German Economics Minister Katherina Reiche says, or will the tariffs strike German industry at its core? The public debate about the customs deal, which includes 15% tariffs on EU goods, is in full swing. We examine the risks using the example of industrial giants Volkswagen and BASF and show that the agreement also has clear winners – Globex Mining's business model is ideally suited to the uncertain situation and could soon bring investors substantial returns.

Western countries seek rare earth escape route: BYD, European Lithium, and Siemens Energy decoded
Our green future depends on tiny elements: neodymium, dysprosium, and others, which are irreplaceable for e-mobility and wind power. However, since China's export restrictions on rare earths in April 2025, prices have skyrocketed by up to 500%, and looming supply bottlenecks are shaking entire industries. Chinese automaker BYD should have no problems with supplies. European Lithium is a possible alternative for Western countries with its lithium and rare earth projects. At Siemens Energy, the wind power subsidiary Gamesa is particularly dependent on rare earths. We take a closer look at the three companies.
