Critical raw materials are becoming scarce! Silver makes a new attempt to reach USD 100 - Silver North, Nordex, and Siemens Energy in focus
January brought the situation surrounding critical metals to a head. Copper, tungsten, and palladium reached new highs, and precious metals were also in high demand. Experts suspect significant distortions in derivatives, which led to astonishing increases in the value of silver and gold. Although silver is systematically classified as a precious metal, it has blossomed into a sought-after industrial metal over the past 10 years. Its extremely good electrical properties, thermal conductivity, and corrosion resistance make it irreplaceable in high-tech and defense applications. Silver has long been used in the field of alternative energies, with demand exceeding supply by a factor of 1.5. And then there are the speculators, who also want a piece of the pie. This means that all eyes are clearly focused on the sky. What portfolio changes make sense?

These companies have the perfect growth formula: Silver North Resources, Barrick Mining, and ASTA Energy Solutions!
Favorable conditions and strong balance sheets provide the foundation for share price gains. This formula applies to all three companies mentioned. With its recent IPO and fresh funds, ASTA Energy Solutions can benefit significantly from the megatrend of the energy transition. High gold prices are filling Barrick's coffers, and the spin-off of its North American gold assets will provide an additional return lever. Well-financed Canadian explorer Silver North Resources is making strong progress. High-grade silver properties in Canada are being developed at a rapid pace, creating added value for shareholders. The high silver price provides additional support – a simple equation.

The bomb has dropped! Gold from 5,600 to 4,600 and now back again? Crazy times with Barrick Mining, DRC Gold, and Strategy
BANG! Investors could not react fast enough as gold and silver prices plunged last Friday. There were many explanations for this sell-off: derivative positions of major banks, which had really hurt during the steep upward trend of recent weeks. Then a few speculators jumped in, hoping to grab a slice of the pie. And finally, a dash of panic. Silver collapsed by a full 40% from USD 122 to USD 72, while gold corrected by around USD 1,000, or 20%, down to USD 4,600. At the start of the week, a slight stabilization is now visible, but volatility remains. The environment is still fragile. Gold stocks like Barrick Mining and DRC Gold are feeling the impact. Looking beyond the metals to Bitcoin, one loser comes into focus: Strategy, Michael Saylor's BTC asset management company. How will the mess continue?

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.

Silver soon at USD 200? Buying at elevated levels or seizing opportunities with CSG, American Atomics, and Carl Zeiss Jena
After a nervous start to the year, commodities and energy issues are once again firmly in focus on global capital markets. Recent discussions around trade tariffs and geopolitical dependencies, topics that also dominated the World Economic Forum in Davos, have triggered pronounced volatility. At the same time, heightened volatility is opening up attractive opportunities for investors. Whether silver, copper, nickel, lithium, or uranium, these metals are essential for industry, the energy transition, and electromobility. Their growing strategic importance is driving up prices and increasingly acting as an inflationary force in Western economies. The underlying factors include disrupted supply chains, export-policy uncertainties, and a tight structural supply deficit. In China, for example, solar module manufacturers are reportedly beginning to stockpile silver, as physical material is becoming increasingly difficult to source. As a result, the price of silver has multiplied within just one year, and physical demand now significantly exceeds global annual production. Investors should take note.

Let profits run: Power Metallic Mines, Barrick Mining, and TKMS – There is still a lot of potential here!
The bull market for precious metals is gaining momentum. Gold and silver reached new historic highs with prices above USD 5,000 and USD 100 per troy ounce. Prices for critical raw materials and industrial metals are also rising. This is fueling further price increases for precious metal and commodity producers such as Barrick Mining. Up-and-coming producers such as Power Metallic Mines, whose assets have strategic value due to their jurisdiction, size, and quality, also offer promising opportunities. In addition, defense stocks continue to be popular with investors.

Silver is unstoppable! Defense stocks in demand! Steyr Motors, Deutz, and Silver North Resources in focus
Silver is currently breaking all records and even eclipsing its big brother, gold. Yesterday, the price of silver climbed to over USD 108. And for good reason: the precious metal is not only a crisis currency, but is increasingly becoming a "critical commodity." Investors who want to profit should not only look at the basic investments, but also at the second-tier winners. In the case of silver, this is Silver North Resources. The explorer's two projects in Canada are so convincing to investors that the current capital increase has been topped up, and the Company is fully financed for two years. The stock now offers an entry opportunity. Steyr Motors shares are also back in the fast lane. A framework agreement with minimum purchase quantities from Asia is providing new momentum. Deutz shares are close to their all-time high. Both engine manufacturers are benefiting from the defense boom.

Alamos Gold, DRC Gold, Rio Tinto – Gold, silver, and metals poised for another surge
Gold and silver are racing from one high to the next, sending a clear signal to the markets. What was long considered a short-term flight to safety is increasingly becoming a structural trend. Exploding government debt, persistent inflation risks, and a fragile geopolitical situation are increasing the need for investors worldwide to hedge their bets. In this environment, industrial metals and strategic commodities are coming into focus alongside traditional precious metals. Supply bottlenecks, geopolitical dependencies, and rising demand due to the energy transition and digitalization suggest that 2026 could be another profitable year not only for gold and silver but for the entire commodities sector.

Record highs for gold, silver, and copper! But tungsten is really taking off! Almonty shares are eclipsing Barrick Mining and MP Materials!
Commodity prices are running wild. But anyone who thinks that developments in gold and silver are record-breaking should take a look at tungsten. It is increasingly becoming the number one critical metal. Within a year, the price has surged from just over USD 300 to more than USD 1,200. Almonty Industries is benefiting from this. Almonty Industries is benefiting from this. From the perspective of CEO Lewis Black, however, the price itself is not the decisive factor, but something else entirely. Although tungsten is increasingly emerging from the shadow of rare earths, it is still the rare earths that dominate the headlines. MP Materials has both the US government and Apple on board, and analysts continue to see outperformance. Barrick Mining should also be making a fortune at the moment. Not only is gold at record levels, but copper is too.

NATO under pressure – Is silver the new gold? Dream returns with Silver North, fresh momentum for Rheinmetall and TKMS
Geopolitical upheavals are exposing deep rifts of trust between the superpowers. The US approach toward Greenland is reminiscent of long-outdated colonial practices and has alienated the political actors involved. As a result of this blunt conduct on the international stage, trust in political institutions is eroding, and long-standing alliance structures are beginning to fall apart. The wobbling of the transatlantic alliance, NATO, marks a new level of tension and escalation. What this means for the capital markets in the short term remains unclear. However, what is already evident is the almost daily appreciation of gold and silver, along with another surge in valuations of defense stocks. A scenario of rising interest rates is also looming on the horizon. None of this is good news, and investors would be well advised to examine their portfolio structures for weaknesses. Here are a few ideas.
