Almonty Industries: Taking on China's Monopoly with the Sangdong Mine – Is Now the Right Time to Invest?
The US has been firing Tomahawk cruise missiles in the Middle East at a rate that has likely made even Pentagon planners nervous. Each of these missiles contains tungsten. This is a critical raw material, over 80% of which is controlled by China. Washington is desperately searching for alternatives. One such alternative is currently getting underway in the mountains of South Korea. The Sangdong Mine, which had been idle for 30 years, is now set to secure Western supplies. The company behind it is on the verge of the biggest chapter in its history. We are therefore taking a closer look at Almonty Industries.

Critical Metals Riding the Wave of Industrial Demand! NASDAQ Hits 30,000, and Almonty Gears Up for the Russell 1,000
Another milestone for Almonty Industries CEO Lewis Black. While the tech rally is pushing the NASDAQ 100 index above 30,000, the tungsten manufacturer is being added to the Russell 1000 Index following the June expiration, based on revenue and valuation criteria. This also entails membership in the somewhat broader Russell 3000 Index, as shown in the FTSE Russell list. This has far-reaching implications! Index-based ETFs must adjust their asset weightings in line with the indices they track within a specified timeframe. For Almonty stock, which has not been represented there until now, this means additional demand from institutional investors - as if the buzz surrounding the only relevant publicly traded tungsten stock were not already big enough. So the party is likely to keep going strong!

Almonty Industries: The Cash Flows Are Coming
As recently as 2024, Almonty Industries shares were trading for less than USD 1 apiece. The stock is now trading around USD 19, having briefly surpassed USD 20. Following this spectacular growth phase, the company is now poised for its next step. On one hand, the Sangdong mine in South Korea officially opened in mid-March and will now supply the Western world with the critical raw material tungsten. On the other hand, SpaceX's IPO is set to take place in a few days with a valuation of USD 1.75 trillion—a figure that seems out of this world. Then, many investors might realize that tungsten, whose global market is clearly dominated by China, is also indispensable for space travel. And it is precisely this product that is actually only available in large quantities from Almonty Industries.

Russell Index Inclusion: Is Almonty on the Verge of a Major Price Breakout?
In the commodities space, companies exposed to critical defence-related metals remain in focus. Almonty Industries is one such name, operating in the tungsten supply chain. The stock is currently consolidating at around CAD 27.30 after reaching an April high of CAD 33.35. But the clock is ticking in the background—though in Almonty's favour, as the Iran conflict continues to escalate despite peace efforts. US missile strikes in the Gulf of Oman and a naval blockade demonstrate that global supply chains are fragile and vulnerable. Added to this is a planned Pentagon ban that would cut off access to tungsten from authoritarian states. This is driving, and has already driven, the price of this critical metal sharply higher. Against this backdrop, Almonty stands out as one of the few established Western tungsten producers. A sustained break above previous highs could open the door to additional upside. Read here to find out why a rare buying opportunity may be available right now.

SpaceX IPO: Buy or Stay Away? Almonty Heading into Space—and Undervalued?
It is the stock market event of the year and the biggest IPO of all time. Elon Musk is taking SpaceX public. Despite an absurd valuation, it might be worth buying at least in the short term. An AI expert and tech analyst breaks down the facts and the hype, and his conclusion is interesting. The IPO is also having spillover effects on other space-related equities, with several stocks showing sharp short-term gains. And raw materials crucial to space travel are also coming into focus for investors. Tungsten, for example, plays a key role in aerospace applications such as rockets and satellites. The price of this critical metal is skyrocketing, and anyone looking to profit from it can hardly ignore Almonty Industries. The company recently made a milestone with the commissioning of its large-scale mine in South Korea. Analysts are projecting strong revenue and earnings growth in the coming years, with recent updates leading to higher price targets.

RARE METAL, RARE OPPORTUNITY: ALMONTY INDUSTRIES BETWEEN THE DEFENSE BOOM AND AI HYPE
Almonty Industries is on track for profitability. The Sangdong tungsten mine in South Korea has been in production since March 17, so a sustained return to profitability should now be just a formality. The transition from a promising stock to an indispensable raw materials supplier for the defence and semiconductor industries is being guided by a former Wall Street analyst who is well-connected in both the mining and financial sectors: in a few days, Jorge Beristain will assume the role of Chief Financial Officer (CFO). The Canadian with Mexican roots is the right man to explain to the financial world why Almonty shares, despite a spectacular multi-year rally, are by no means overvalued.

Strategy, Almonty Industries, Take-Two Interactive – Gaming, Bitcoin, and Commodities on the Verge of the Next Wave
Gaming, commodities, and cryptocurrencies are currently emerging as three of the most exciting growth sectors in the financial markets. While the gaming industry is heading toward its next billion-dollar blockbuster, geopolitical tensions and AI infrastructure are driving a boom in demand for strategic metals. At the same time, large-scale institutional purchases are massively exacerbating supply shortages in the crypto market. The combination of digital entertainment, commodity security, and the Bitcoin surge could open up extraordinary opportunities for investors in the coming years.

Tungsten Crisis and Only One Solution: Supply Chains of SpaceX and Sandvik Under Pressure – Almonty Industries Perfectly Positioned
An unprecedented price shock, no meaningful new supply in sight, and continued Chinese export restrictions are forcing Western industry to act in the tungsten market. This year, the price of ammonium paratungstate exploded from USD 920 per metric ton unit (MTU) at the Rotterdam trading hub to well over USD 3,000. With China controlling nearly 80% of global production and the United States set to implement a strict procurement ban on Chinese tungsten for the defence sector starting in 2027, the risk of a serious supply bottleneck is growing. From traditional metal-processing industries and semiconductor manufacturing to aerospace applications, corporations depend on stable supply chains for this essential and virtually irreplaceable metal. In this unique market environment, the US-focused mining company Almonty Industries is building a new, geopolitically independent raw materials empire. The odds are in its favour: Almonty is currently the only producer meaningfully expanding tungsten production capacity.

Tungsten Market: High Tech and Weapons Drive Prices, Bank of America Boosts Almonty Industries!
China's dominance in raw materials, the geopolitical rivalry with the United States, and the conflict in the Persian Gulf are currently reshaping the geopolitical landscape. The West urgently needs to reduce its dependence on China for critical raw materials, although a complete decoupling is unlikely in the foreseeable future. Metals such as tungsten are at the center of this shift, as they are indispensable in the defence industry. This is driven not only by China's market control but also by Europe's ongoing rearmament efforts. Almonty Industries is in pole position in this context. The Canadian company operates one of the world's few large-scale tungsten mines in South Korea and could be among the first to provide relief through more secure supply chains. Analysts at Bank of America have recently reiterated their "Buy" recommendation, as the major growth surge in revenues and earnings is expected to begin only now.
