Tungsten boom: Why Almonty Industries could become the key stock of the West
Tungsten has become a commodity of geopolitical importance. Its price has more than doubled since the beginning of the year. Small and medium-sized companies are groaning under high purchasing costs, and the industry is facing the threat of production lines coming to a standstill. The tug-of-war between West and East for the coveted heavy metal is in full swing. China controls around 80% of global production and is increasingly tightening the export screw. This presents a rare opportunity for investors, because there is no way around one stock: Almonty Industries. The company is on its way to becoming the most important tungsten supplier in the Western world.

Tungsten Prices Surge as Media Attention Grows: Handelsblatt and Fox Business Report - Almonty Industries in focus
A revaluation is currently underway in parts of the commodities sector. Tungsten has outperformed rare earths, silver, and gold in recent months, with prices nearly doubling since the beginning of 2026. This critical commodity is being discovered not only by a growing number of investors, but also by the media. Most recently, Handelsblatt and Fox Business have reported on it. Lewis Black is always part of the conversation. The CEO of Almonty Industries is currently a man in demand – by governments, companies, investors, and the media. On the one hand, Almonty is the only serious Western producer of this strategically important material used in defense, electronics, aerospace, and many other industries. On the other hand, Black presents market developments in a highly convincing manner. According to him, prices are unlikely to decline significantly.

The 'Apple moment' of strategic metals! How Almonty Industries is securing Western sovereignty and emulating Glencore and Rio Tinto
The mining industry is going through a phase that could be described as the 'Apple moment' of strategic metals. Similar to how Apple ushered in a new technological era two decades ago by combining proprietary hardware and closed software architecture, Almonty Industries now occupies a key position for NATO's industrial and military sovereignty. While the public focus has long been on digitalization, critical raw materials are now moving to the center of the geopolitical power architecture. In this context, tungsten has become as indispensable to the modern defense and semiconductor industries as the operating system is to smartphones.

Almonty Industries – Main beneficiary of the tungsten shock
The price of tungsten has quadrupled within a year. China dominates over 80% of production, is cutting subsidies, tightening export rules, and struggling with declining ore grades. At the same time, demand from the defense, semiconductor, and data center sectors continues to drive the market. The West is looking for alternatives, and one of the largest mines outside China is about to ramp up production. Could this give rise to a strategic raw materials player that could serve up to 40% of non-Chinese demand?

Commodity rush at Almonty Industries, sell-off at SAP and Gerresheimer – where it is worth getting in now
Three companies, two setbacks – and one strategic opportunity. While Almonty Industries is successfully ramping up its tungsten project in South Korea and positioning itself as a Western commodity pillar, SAP and Gerresheimer have recently experienced difficult stock market phases. The cloud company fell well short of its quarterly targets and lost 17%, while the pharmaceutical equipment supplier is struggling with its third consecutive decline in revenue despite booming GLP-1 therapies. Almonty, SAP, and Gerresheimer are prime examples of how different strategic importance and market volatility can be at present. We analyze the current situations.

Unpredictable conflict dynamics turn tungsten into a strategic metal – Almonty moves into focus
The capital markets currently appear paradoxical: record highs for indices, unusually high volatility, and above all, a world order that is shifting faster than any valuation metric. Wars are back and here to stay, trade routes are becoming political and fragile, and sanctions are replacing diplomacy. In this environment, raw materials are once again becoming strategic weapons. While algorithms are still extrapolating growth rates, governments are already thinking about supply scenarios after the crash. In this tense environment, the logic of investing is changing. It is no longer just about supply and demand, but about access, control, and reliability. Who will deliver when the going gets tough? Who will decide who gets what and how much, and who might even be excluded? This is precisely where the major capital movements of the coming years will arise, often away from the familiar mega-caps. A metal that hardly anyone has paid attention to for years is suddenly becoming the focus of technological and military interest. And a company that has long flown under the radar is quietly becoming a strategic factor. Almonty Industries is an example of how geopolitics and capital markets are currently intertwining in new ways and creating dream returns for visionary investors.

Tungsten price explodes to USD 1,737: Why Almonty is now becoming the West's money printing machine – bottleneck for Sandvik and Rheinmetall
A scenario is currently unfolding on the commodity markets that even experienced traders and analysts describe as "extraordinary," if not a "tectonic shift." While investors often look to gold or copper, an exponential price development is taking place in a strategic niche that is turning the calculations of the entire Western industry upside down and creating new hierarchies. The tungsten market, the metal that forms the backbone of the modern defense and high-tech industry due to its extreme hardness and heat resistance, has spiraled out of control. Almonty is the only Western producer to create significant new capacity in 2026.
The price of ammonium paratungstate (APT), the global benchmark product for tungsten trading, is skyrocketing. Within a single week, the price in Rotterdam shot up by more than 26% to reach an average price of USD 1,737 per mtu (metric ton unit). To really understand the drama of this development, one needs to look at the timeline. **At the beginning of 2025, the price was still hovering around USD 340. By the end of 2025, it had more than doubled to USD 862, which was already considered sensational. But what we are now experiencing in the first quarter of 2026 is no longer a normal market fluctuation. It is a wave of panic buying that has caused the price to increase fivefold in just over a year. In this extremely dynamic environment, there are many losers on the buyer side – but on the producer side, there is one clear winner that is positioned like no other: Almonty Industries.

These stocks continue to rise: Almonty Industries, RENK, and Steyr Motors. Do not miss out!
The pause near Almonty Industries' all-time high is likely to prove very short-lived. The arguments in favor of buying the stock are too strong. Several analysts have recently raised their price targets. As one of the world's largest producers of the critical raw material tungsten, the company has geopolitical weight, which is increasing in light of initiatives such as those by the US government to build up strategic reserves of rare earths and other critical raw materials. Several analysts have recently been promoting the two defense stocks RENK and Steyr Motors. Who has the edge?

Siemens Energy, TKMS, and Almonty Industries! Profits surge, forecasts raised, target prices raised!
Almonty shares remain high flyers. Even though the overall market is weakening, every dip is being used as an opportunity to buy Almonty shares. And for good reason. The price of tungsten is exploding, and analysts are only slowly taking this into account. Further price target increases are likely to follow. Siemens Energy's share price and target price are also rising. The German energy technology group is profiting handsomely from the AI boom. The current quarterly figures are convincing, but there is no room for error in the valuation. Recently listed TKMS has raised its forecast. However, investors are reacting cautiously. Analysts' opinions remain divided. Is there a margin problem looming?

New analyst comments: Almonty Industries at all-time high, volatility at Rheinmetall and RENK – What is next?
The latest analyst ratings assess the growth prospects of Almonty Industries and several defense companies. The tungsten producer's stock stands out as particularly positive. The high price level of this critical raw material, combined with rising production volumes, is acting as an enormous profit lever with net margins of around 60% from 2028 onwards. The bottom line is that the experts' verdict on defense stocks is positive. The big picture underpinning this outlook is the tense geopolitical situation and massive increases in defense budgets.
