Empty Ammunition Stockpiles, Tight Tungsten Supply: Almonty Industries, Rheinmetall and Lockheed Martin Set to Benefit

  • Tungsten
  • CriticalMetals
  • Defense
  • armaments
  • geopolitics

As geopolitical conflicts intensify once again and NATO countries ramp up defence spending, ammunition supplies are increasingly running low. This is making tungsten ever more important. Without this critical raw material, armour-piercing ammunition, precision missiles and high-performance tools cannot be produced. Starting in 2027, US procurement rules will also require supply chains independent of China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea. This is redirecting billions of dollars and intensifying the race for secure sources. Against this backdrop, Almonty Industries, Rheinmetall, and Lockheed Martin are moving into focus. All three companies stand to benefit from the realignment of the Western defence industry.

Defence and the Price of Growth: AeroVironment, Rheinmetall, and Volatus Aerospace in the Spotlight

  • Drones
  • Defense
  • armaments
  • geopolitics
  • hightech

The war in Ukraine has exposed many of the promises made by the traditional defence industry. When expensive weapons systems are neutralized by swarms of low-cost drones, long-held notions of military strength can quickly evaporate. Satellite navigation fails due to jamming, communications links break down, and chains of command are disrupted. On battlefields in Ukraine, huge tanks often look like beetles that have fallen onto their backs. A shift in thinking is therefore necessary. What is needed today are autonomous drones that can independently target objectives while flying at low altitude or take on other tasks. The Western defence industry needs to rethink its approach.

Shake-Up Brewing at Almonty Industries! Adidas World Cup Party is Over! BYD Export Explosion!

BYD is shaking up the international automotive market with a massive wave of exports, turning up the heat on rival automakers and nearly the entire Western competition. Thanks to the football World Cup, Adidas enjoyed a breathtaking surge in sales, leaving its competitors far behind. But now the World Cup party appears to be over—the stock catalyst has vanished, replaced instead by market frustration. Elsewhere, however, a rare raw material, without which modern defence and technology simply cannot function, is triggering a profound geopolitical upheaval. Almonty Industries is positioning itself perfectly to capitalize on this exact scenario. Find out in this report why the second quarter was so critical for all three stocks, and where the biggest opportunities are lurking right now. Keep reading, as the figures and news tell a powerful and, in some cases, highly surprising story.

How Almonty Industries, Rheinmetall, and RTX Are Driving the New Defense Supercycle—and Why the Correction Could Be an Opportunity

The New York Post recently reported that, according to experts, the US does not have enough missiles to protect its troops in the Middle East in the event of a protracted war with Iran. This means that the West has largely depleted its ammunition stockpiles. A defense supercycle is on the horizon, forcing nations to become self-sufficient. This rapid depletion is revealing a critical bottleneck. The dwindling availability of tungsten, whose price has skyrocketed, threatens to jeopardize resupply efforts. We take a look at tungsten supplier Almonty Industries, then examine the European defense giant Rheinmetall, and conclude with the technological leader of the US missile industry, RTX.

Antimony Alert! Hotter than gold and rarer than lithium: Re-rating Potential for Antimony Resources After Recent Pullback

The world is becoming increasingly unstable—something reflected in the daily news flow. Geopolitical tensions are rising, and commodities that were largely overlooked for years are now moving into focus. Antimony is one such example: a relatively unknown metal, yet strategically important. No modern tank can be produced without it, no precision ammunition, no night vision goggles. What makes the market particularly compelling is its structure—like many critical raw materials, supply is highly concentrated, with China dominating global production and processing. But this is precisely the emerging supply gap Antimony Resources is filling through its Canadian project, which is unparalleled.

Is US Ammunition Capacity at Its Limit? Antimony Resources Delivers What Washington Needs for "Unlimited" Firepower

As geopolitical tensions mount in the Middle East and Washington speaks of "unlimited" ammunition capacity, a critical bottleneck in the supply chain is becoming increasingly apparent: antimony. This unassuming semimetal, essential for modern weapon systems and high-tech industries, is scarcer than ever. China has turned off the export tap. A Canadian company is stepping into this very vacuum. With one of North America's most promising projects, Antimony Resources aims to secure the West's strategic independence.

Ammunition shortages pressure the defense industry: Opportunity for Almonty, challenges for General Dynamics and Rheinmetall

  • Mining

  • geopolitics

Our global security architecture has been undergoing significant disruptions for some time. The decades-long paradigm of the peace dividend, built on global supply chains and reduced stockpiles, has largely collapsed. The defense industry now faces the challenge of establishing reliable supply chains for critical raw materials in order to meet the growing demand for artillery ammunition and heavy weapon systems. Another driver is the war in Iran. According to a report by the Financial Times, the conflict has decimated US ammunition stockpiles to such an extent that the Pentagon is already warning of shortages of certain munitions. To replenish these inventories, the US government is planning a supplemental budget of around USD 50 billion. In this environment, the US defense contractor General Dynamics is helping maintain the operational readiness of NATO partners through production of ammunition, while Rheinmetall, as a European systems provider, is also expanding its capacities. However, the crucial foundation for this production is the critical metal tungsten. The only significant Western supplier, Almonty Industries, therefore plays a key role - potentially opening up unique opportunities for investors.

It does not happen often that a commodity market that has remained stable for decades suddenly becomes fundamentally disrupted. Yet that is exactly what we are currently witnessing in the tungsten right now. China is curbing exports, the US Department of Defense is banning Chinese tungsten starting in 2027, and prices are surging to historic highs. Amid this perfect storm stands a company that has quietly and persistently been building a Western alternative for years: Almonty Industries. While the world searches for solutions, the Canadian producer has just started operations at its Sangdong mine in South Korea - at precisely the right time and in exactly the right place.

Nearly 50% upside potential: Rheinmetall, RENK, and Standard Uranium

Buying opportunities are emerging here. After the muted market reaction to the annual results, analysts see a buying opportunity in RENK. According to their estimates, the stock could offer almost 50% upside potential, although there are also more cautious voices. Rheinmetall, too, failed to fully convince the market with its 2025 results and outlook. Given the current valuations, investors appear to be expecting more. In contrast, uranium stocks may be presenting fresh entry opportunities. Driven by the AI boom, industry leaders such as Cameco have already performed strongly. Exploration companies, however, could still have significant catch-up potential. Standard Uranium is pursuing a risk-diversified strategy. The company is exploring a broad portfolio of projects near major players such as Fission Uranium, NexGen Energy, and F3 Uranium. A new drilling program scheduled to begin this month could trigger a revaluation of the stock.

900% price increase and only a P/E ratio of 10! Rheinmetall, Hensoldt, and Almonty Industries in focus

  • Mining
  • Tungsten
  • Defense
  • armaments
  • hightech

Can a stock still be cheap after a 900% increase in 12 months? Looking at the current analyst estimates for Almonty Industries, the answer is "yes." Analysts are therefore raising their price target significantly and recommending the tungsten producer as a "Buy". They expect revenue and profits to explode starting this year. In contrast, investors in Rheinmetall and Hensoldt are slowly losing faith in the supercycle. Both stocks are languishing this year. Even the war in the Middle East is unable to give defense stocks a boost. Yet Rheinmetall has exactly the products in its portfolio that are so urgently needed: relatively inexpensive drone defense systems. The US is slowly running out of expensive interceptor missiles. Hensoldt recently reported a record order backlog, but investors are disappointed with revenue and profit growth. Could a takeover provide new momentum for the stock?
