Antimony Resources: Geopolitics Is Driving Antimony Prices
Antimony is increasingly becoming a geopolitically important commodity. China dominates production, and export restrictions have already caused prices to rise sharply. At the same time, demand is growing from the defense, technology, and energy sectors. With the Bald Hill project, Antimony Resources is developing a potentially significant source of antimony for North America. New discoveries and high-grade drill results suggest that the project could have significantly greater potential than previously assumed.

Over 100% in an epic tungsten rally! Revenue and profits are exploding at Almonty Industries!
Is tungsten the new precious metal? In terms of price performance, this critical raw material is easily outshining gold and silver. The price of the metal - coveted by governments, defense contractors, tech companies, and many others - has surged by more than 100% this year alone. Prices have now climbed to over USD 2,200 per MTU, compared to below USD 400 a year ago. The biggest beneficiary of this epic rally is Almonty Industries. The tungsten producer invested early in new mines and is now ramping up production. With the new mine in South Korea, the company will soon be able to cover around 40% of global demand outside of China. The company released an update yesterday, and analysts expect a surge in both revenue and profits.

Security, Defense, and Power: How Rheinmetall, DroneShield, and NEO Battery Materials Are Revolutionizing Defense Logistics
The geopolitical tensions of recent years have brought a fundamental truth to light. Security is not just a matter of tanks and soldiers, but increasingly a race for technological superiority. While established, large companies like Rheinmetall are securing record orders and DroneShield is trying to secure the skies above our heads, a third player is quietly moving into the center of power: NEO Battery Materials. Today, it is no longer just about who builds the best drone, but also about who keeps it in the air the longest and most efficiently. In a world where conflicts like those in Iran or Ukraine are decided by autonomous systems, traditional armaments and state-of-the-art battery technology are merging into a single entity. We take a look behind the scenes of an industry that offers completely new opportunities for investors right now.

Oil Crisis 5.0 is Pure Fiction: Shell, American Atomics, and E.ON Call the Shots
The same old refrain every day: We are running out of oil! The Strait of Hormuz is about to be closed! This is scaremongering by the oil lobby, which has been suffering from relatively low oil prices of USD 60 to USD 80 for the past two years. So a bit of stress is injected into the system, a few images of burning oil facilities appear in the news, and prices quickly start soaring again. Oil prices have already surged well above USD 100 twice on strong momentum - but that is not what scarcity looks like! The "Peak Oil" myth has already been debunked several times. In reality, with all the renewable alternatives to fossil fuels, oil demand has reached a peak, which, according to experts, is almost exactly 100 million barrels per day. And as recent studies show, there is still enough oil on Earth to last well over 200 years. So: take advantage of short-selling opportunities in the oil market as the conflict draws to a close, ride Shell's current oil wave as long as possible, and keep an eye on upcoming energy favorites such as American Atomics, RWE, or E.ON. Then your portfolio will be smiling - without falling into sheer panic.

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

Energy Crisis Drives Agricultural Transformation: Opportunities in MustGrow Biologics, K+S, and Corteva Agriscience
Agriculture is at a turning point. The reason is the renewed escalation in the Middle East. The Strait of Hormuz, through which roughly one-fifth of global liquefied natural gas shipments and significant volumes of fertilizer-related trade pass, represents one of the world's most critical energy chokepoints. The resulting instability has pushed energy prices higher and stalled the production of synthetic nitrogen fertilizers. Since natural gas is the base raw material for fertilizer production, agricultural companies and farmers must rethink their strategies. In this environment, agricultural innovation will play a crucial role in securing future food supply. Companies such as K+S and Corteva Agriscience are responding to cost pressures in energy raw materials, while MustGrow Biologics is attracting attention with biological solutions that could reduce reliance on synthetic fertilizers.

Almonty Industries: Analyst price targets continue to rise - Now as high as USD 25.80. What is behind the new targets
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.

AI fuels demand, investors reap rewards: ExxonMobil, Standard Uranium, and Nordex in focus
Electricity demand is exploding, driven by electrification and the race for supremacy in artificial intelligence. Governments and corporations are desperately searching for solutions to power data centers around the clock. The old dogma of climate neutrality is giving way to a pragmatic realignment. Every available kilowatt-hour counts, whether fossil, nuclear, or renewable. This tension between security of supply and technological competition is currently giving rise to three promising investment opportunities that could not be more different. While US oil giant ExxonMobil is benefiting from the return to fossil fuels, Standard Uranium is betting on the nuclear renaissance, and Nordex relies on wind power as an indispensable pillar of the future energy mix.

Antimony Resources: Why a war in Iran could unleash the silent antimony crisis
The first 48 hours of a modern conflict consume billions and reveal a dangerous dependency. When fighting in Iran escalated at the end of February 2026, the Pentagon estimated ammunition costs of USD 5.6 billion for the first two days alone. More than 2,000 precision weapons struck over 5,000 targets. What is missing from this tally, however, is the question of what material the projectiles are made of. Behind every missile fired lies a silent but critical raw material: antimony. The semi-metal hardens lead bullets, ensures precision in primers, and enables thermal imaging technology in guidance systems. And this is exactly where the real problem begins.

Iran, Israel, USA – Investors turn to gold! Buying opportunities for Desert Gold, Barrick Mining, TUI, and Lufthansa
The daily news is not easy to stomach. Wars, conflicts, and human tragedies – who still thinks about traveling at times like these? Or is now precisely the time when people want to switch off and escape for a while? For years, investors have had to live with geopolitical uncertainty. So far, however, this has had little impact on equities, as there are always sectors that receive particular attention in such environments. Gold and silver have weathered the inflation surges since the COVID-19 pandemic remarkably well, while the tourism sector has been more of a roller coaster ride with several loops along the way. But what has worked in recent years is now back on the agenda: buy when the cannons thunder! It may sound lacking in empathy, yet it has consistently increased the wealth of those who accept the world as it is. We once again take a look at gold and the travel sector and prepare for another turbulent ride.
