Financial revolution: How BlackRock, Bank of America, and Finexity are leveraging the USD 16 trillion potential of tokenization
When one of the key figures at the world's most powerful financial regulatory authority talks about a historic turning point, Wall Street sits up and takes notice. SEC Chairman Paul Atkins recently described the tokenization of assets as the key market driver for the coming years. This is no longer about speculative cryptocurrencies, but about the digital, legally secure representation of real assets – from real estate and art to government bonds. While US giants such as BlackRock and Bank of America are already pumping billions into this new infrastructure and seeking to divide the market among themselves, a specialized player is positioning itself in Germany that has long since mastered this technology and is making it available to investors: Finexity.

Drone defense and nearly 10% fixed interest! DroneShield, Hensoldt, Bitcoin Group, Nakiki
Is Germany now getting serious about drone defense? A new drone defense center was opened in Berlin yesterday, aiming to provide a nationwide overview of the situation and a coordinated response to drone incidents. DroneShield and Hensoldt are among the beneficiaries on the stock market when it comes to drones and their defense. Will the shares now receive new momentum? Bitcoin is not currently experiencing any momentum. However, this is actually a desirable scenario for Nakiki SE. The Company plans to buy Bitcoin in the coming months and become Germany's first pure play Bitcoin Treasury company. To this end, Nakiki is currently issuing a corporate bond. Investors can secure a fixed interest rate of almost 10% p.a. and diversify their portfolio. The CEO explains why the Bitcoin bond is interesting. In contrast, Bitcoin Group has missed the boat, and now short sellers are also getting involved.

Are Palantir and Meta facing an AI crash? Tailwind from billionaires for Power Metallic Mines
Will the AI bubble burst, or not? NVIDIA's latest figures initially reassured investors last week, but ultimately prompted profit-taking. Palantir and Meta shares are also strongly driven by AI fantasies. At the same time, the costs of AI development and the associated infrastructure are exploding. Some observers already see the early signs of a bubble, as major tech companies continue pouring billions into next-generation AI solutions at a relentless pace. The key question is: How long can this continue? And is there perhaps a sector that could quietly benefit from this dynamic?

Winners for 2026: RZOLV Technologies, Evotec, Mutares have what it takes – which developments are crucial?
The 2025 stock market year was full of exciting developments. Bull markets in commodities, interest rate cuts, and geopolitical tensions. However, some companies, such as Evotec, had to deal with many home-grown problems and lagged behind the positive performance of the overall market. Mutares saw its coffers fill up, but its share price could have done better this year. Next year could be very successful for RZOLV Technologies. The Canadians are solving a major problem in gold mining.

The Pentagon gets serious for Boeing and Co.: US government backs Korea Zinc and ignites the turbo for Antimony Resources
Antimony was long a metal that attracted little attention. But that has changed abruptly with China's recent export restrictions and geopolitical escalation. The semi-metal is indispensable for the defense industry, from ammunition to high-tech alloys used by Boeing. To break its dependence on Beijing, Washington is now digging deep into the state coffers and supporting the development of domestic capacities through the industrial giant Korea Zinc. This government intervention is fundamentally changing the rules of the market and bringing North American explorers, such as Antimony Resources, which could supply the urgently needed raw material in a few years, into the spotlight of strategic investors.

Can AI extend its marathon into 2026? Broadcom, Oracle, Aspermont, and Alibaba now in the portfolio?
Despite all the doom and gloom, the AI sector could once again perform strongly on the stock market in 2026, as the ongoing investment cycle in AI infrastructure is expected to lead to transformative monetization, according to Wedbush analysts. They anticipate high-tech stocks to gain a further 20%. Fidelity analysts calculate positive earnings growth in the IT sector of around 25%, supported by rising profitability driven by AI. Vanguard expects AI to offset negative shocks and drive US growth above widespread consensus forecasts with an 80% probability, thanks to enormous productivity gains. Only Barclays has recently expressed "bubble fears," deeming the hype overblown. How will it really play out? Here are a few indicators.

Great potential in the defense sector! RENK, Hensoldt, NEO Battery Materials
Milestone at NEO Battery Materials! With the lease of its new operational battery facility, NEO Battery is now ready to start commercializing its high-performance battery technology for defense, automotive and energy sectors. The new factory eliminates the need for time-consuming and costly construction. Orders and partnerships are also already in place. It is likely only a matter of time before batteries are also used in tanks. In Germany, RENK, for example, is developing drives for vehicles weighing up to 70 tons. Analysts consider the recent sell-off in defense stocks to be exaggerated. Their current favorite is Hensoldt. However, the sensor specialist is not recommended as a buy by all experts.
