New EU standards aim to secure the future of e-mobility! BYD, Nio, Group Eleven Resources, and VW
With the Alternative Fuels Infrastructure Regulation (AFIR), the European Union has been creating binding minimum standards for publicly accessible charging points since the beginning of 2026. In addition, new subsidies have been introduced in many EU countries to promote e-mobility, even though the coffers are empty due to high defense spending. Meanwhile, the overall European vehicle market came under noticeable pressure in January. According to the latest data from the industry association ACEA, new vehicle registrations fell by just under 4% compared to the previous year, marking the first decline in months and reflecting the difficult overall market. However, a clear trend is emerging within this development: electrification is continuing to advance and shifting market shares in favor of battery electric vehicles. At the same time, the next Middle East conflict is unfolding, with oil prices rising sharply above USD 82 per barrel of Brent. This is providing a strong tailwind for alternative drive systems that can withstand global hysteria. Risk-conscious investors should now revise their portfolio structures.

Silver as a crisis investment: Silver Viper, Fresnillo, and Pan American Silver offer strategic potential, but which stock is the best?
Silver supply has not been able to meet demand for some time now, and now chaos in the Middle East is adding to the problem. Military escalation in the region has triggered a chain of events that is shaking the foundations of global supply security. The direct conflict between the US, Israel, and Iran has long since spread to the entire region, highlighting the geopolitical vulnerability of international supply chains. With the launch of the "Epic Fury" military operation and Iran's subsequent attacks on tankers in the Strait of Hormuz, the risk of prolonged stagflation for the global economy is growing. In this volatile environment, precious metals are benefiting as a strategic asset class. While investors are increasingly turning to crisis investments, Mexico, in particular, is benefiting in the silver sector, offering a reliable environment thanks to its centuries-old mining tradition and geographical distance from the current trouble spots. We present exciting stocks and focus on the hidden gem Silver Viper.

First Majestic Silver hits an all-time high! Could Silver Viper Minerals be next? Resistance at Bayer!
The silver rally is far from over, as the price of the precious metal has stabilized at a high level of USD 90 per ounce, enabling the industry to generate high revenues. First Majestic is an impressive example, with investors celebrating record figures that pushed the stock to a new all-time high last week. Similarly, Silver Viper Minerals is drawing attention, offering clear growth targets and fueling takeover speculation. The CEO made a convincing case at an investor conference last week, outlining the Canadians’ 2026 motto: “drill, drill, drill.” At the same time, the company aims to grow through acquisitions, likely ensuring an exciting news flow. Meanwhile, at Bayer, the focus is back on glyphosate. Recent optimism about an end to the saga had driven the stock higher, but now, resistance is emerging.

Three potential beneficiaries of the Iran war: Rheinmetall, First Majestic Silver, and Silver North Resources in focus
The defense industry could outperform - but it needs silver as a key raw material. Could a new silver rush emerge in the shadow of war? Geopolitical tensions in the Middle East have escalated sharply following recent US and Israeli strikes on Iran. Investors are now focused on a very special alliance: the symbiosis of high-tech armaments and shiny raw materials. Modern military systems, from AI-driven chips to cutting-edge sensors, rely heavily on significant silver supplies. In this volatile environment, silver stocks are gaining attention. We take a closer look at two silver players alongside Rheinmetall. With sensational new discoveries in the legendary Keno Hill District and strong momentum, Silver North Resources is positioned to shake up the silver market. But the big players are not sleeping either. While First Majestic Silver, one of the purest silver producers globally, is benefiting from surging silver prices, Rheinmetall, the technical backbone of Western defense, is forming the fundamental counterpart in this strategic triangle. For investors who want to understand why silver could become a strategic issue for the industry right now and how Silver North Resources is paving the way for a new era with new drilling, read on and take a closer look. Because every crisis also produces winners.

New Momentum for Gold & Silver, SAP, Nvidia and PayPal – Is Lahontan Gold on the Path to Becoming a Cash Generator?
The volatility in the precious metals sector is due to a number of factors, all of which are contributing to higher prices. Over the past three weeks, banks were briefly able to catch their breath with silver prices hovering around USD 75. However, since the unrest in Mexico began, the market has been sensing a new shortage, this time politically induced. Gold can benefit from this scenario, having just reached a new all-time high of USD 5,600 in January. Following this strong rally, a textbook consolidation down to USD 4,850 took place. Yesterday, the USD 5,200 level was seen again, and technical analysts consider temporary spikes toward USD 7,500 a possible overshooting target. Investment banks have also significantly raised their estimates, with Goldman Sachs at USD 5,400, Deutsche Bank and Société Générale at USD 6,000, and JPMorgan at USD 6,500. Although they have been able to predict the gold market well in recent years, they still see room for improvement with the current "de-dollarization." At the same time, overheated tech stocks appear to be in need of further correction. For investors, this is a time for profitable reallocations.

SILVER - Is the USD 150 mark now within reach? Silver Viper on the move!
Up and down – always lively! The silver price currently resembles a yo-yo; children might find it entertaining. However, it is far less amusing for the banks, traders, and especially the futures exchanges involved. For some time now, silver has proven to be an extremely important metal for the trending sectors of defense, medicine, and high-tech. Just as physical supply markets began to falter and China imposed new export restrictions, investors rushed to secure inventories on COMEX and the LME - trading venues originally established for forward sales by producers. With spot prices reaching as high as USD 122, a battle for physical stocks has now erupted. Not only is industry stockpiling significant quantities, but speculators also see the excessive scarcity as a once-in-a-century opportunity for price appreciation. Compared to gold, silver has delivered triple the performance within just 12 months, with the gold-silver ratio falling back to 55 after briefly approaching 100. Market observers expect a new surge toward USD 150 by the March settlement. It may therefore be worthwhile to consider exposure to future producers such as Silver Viper. Time is of the essence.

Commodity investments: Why Globex Mining is the hidden gem next to Barrick Mining and MP Materials
The global economy is undergoing a fundamental shift from an era of free trade to an era of scarcity. Commodities are no longer mere trade goods, but instruments of national security and expressions of geopolitical power. The US government's announcement that it will create an exclusive commodity trading bloc demonstrates this. At the same time, the International Energy Agency (IEA) has heralded the age of electrification, in which demand for copper, rare earths, lithium, and antimony is rising to historic highs due to the expansion of global data centers for artificial intelligence and the decarbonization of industry. S&P Global forecasts a copper deficit of 10 million tons by 2040. China continues to control over 50% of refined copper production and dominates the supply of 19 out of 20 critical minerals. This concentration is forcing Western countries and investors to rethink their strategies. We present options that have received little attention so far.

Silver North Resources: The high-grade bet in the slipstream of giants Hecla Mining and Silvercorp Metals
The silver market is currently undergoing a fundamental transformation that goes far beyond the precious metal's traditional role as a substitute currency. This turning point is characterized by the divergence between robust industrial demand and a geological shortage of high-grade resources. New discoveries in world-class districts are thus becoming rare and sought-after events for investors. These market dynamics are accompanied by technological developments: modern architecture for artificial intelligence, such as Nvidia's Rubin and Blackwell chipsets, have a power consumption of over 1,000 watts and generate enormous demand for silver-based thermal materials. As this silver is permanently withdrawn from the market and the transition in the photovoltaic industry to new N-type cells further fuels consumption, the industry is experiencing its sixth consecutive year of significant supply shortages. After a period of exaggeration with peaks of over USD 120 per ounce, the market has currently consolidated at USD 70 to USD 80. Based on this level, profitable producers and promising exploration bets in North America are becoming interesting again for investors.

Beijing's silver bomb is ticking: Silver Viper Minerals, Infineon, and JinkoSolar in the big winners check
The stage is set for one of the most spectacular commodity conflicts of the decade. For the sixth consecutive year, demand is outstripping supply in silver, but this time the bottleneck has a geopolitical face. Beijing's export restrictions threaten to cut off up to half of the silver supply for Western industry. In this fractured market, three companies show how differently strategies can play out in the face of the crisis: Silver Viper Minerals is betting on new discoveries in Mexico, Infineon requires silver, but only to a small extent, and JinkoSolar is pushing forward the replacement of the precious metal in production.
