Volatus Aerospace - War, AI, and Security Drive a Billion-Dollar Boom
The world is entering a new technological phase, with drones emerging as a critical component. Geopolitical tensions, such as in Ukraine and the Middle East, have underscored the strategic importance of unmanned systems in modern warfare. At the same time, demand for data, surveillance, and automation is accelerating rapidly, driven by the expansion of AI, data centers, and critical infrastructure. According to market studies, the global drone market is expected to exceed the USD 100 billion mark by 2032. The global counter-drone market is expanding even faster and could surpass USD 20 billion by 2030.
But it is not only in the military sector; an enormous growth market is also unfolding in the civilian sector. Drones are increasingly being used to inspect power grids, pipelines, offshore facilities, and agricultural land. The combination of falling costs, rising performance, and AI-powered data analysis makes them an indispensable tool. The current geopolitical environment is acting as a catalyst and could mark the start of a long-term supercycle.

Desert Gold: The Next Gold Miner in West Africa
The past 50 years in mining belonged to Latin America, as they say in the industry. That is where mining giants like Chile, Mexico, and Brazil emerged; countries that are now indispensable to the global economy. But this century belongs to Africa; all experts agree on that. Many undiscovered deposits are still waiting to be discovered by the world. The western part of the continent is becoming increasingly important in the gold sector. Desert Gold has established itself in Mali and plans to start production as early as this summer. The company's valuation is attractive, and the stock is still flying under the radar of many investors. This presents a buying opportunity for bold investors.

Drone Market Set to Exceed USD 100 Billion: Volatus Aerospace Positioned to Benefit from Dual-Use Strategy
Drones have evolved from a niche application into a rapidly expanding multi-billion-dollar market. Industry estimates point to a global market volume exceeding USD 100 billion by 2032. The military sector in particular is booming, driven by geopolitical tensions and new forms of conflict. But the civilian market is also growing at double-digit rates and opening up enormous opportunities in infrastructure, logistics, and agriculture. Against this backdrop, Volatus Aerospace is positioning itself with a dual-use strategy that targets both military and commercial applications. The company reports an order pipeline exceeding CAD 600 million, highlighting strong operational momentum. Analyst price targets currently reach up to CAD 1.25, compared to a current share price of around CAD 0.70. The stock is also actively traded on German exchanges.

Iran Conflict and Chip Boom: Almonty Industries Emerges as a Raw Materials Superpower
Amid rising geopolitical tensions and increasing dependence on critical raw materials, investors are focusing on supply security and strategic assets. The geopolitical situation is escalating, while technological dependence on critical raw materials has reached a dangerous level. Almonty Industries sits right at the intersection and offers a solution to a problem affecting the West. With the opening of one of the world's largest tungsten mines in South Korea, the company has not only achieved an operational milestone but also made a political statement. This is about far more than just mining; it is about the independence of entire industries. In this report, we examine why Almonty Industries could be particularly well-positioned amid fragile ceasefires, such as in Iran, and rising commodity prices. Those who understand the management's foresight will quickly realize that a company has emerged here that will redefine the rules of the game on the global market. This is the story of forward-thinking strategy, technical necessity, and a passion for a raw material without which the modern world would likely grind to a halt.

Almonty Industries: Poised to Benefit from Tungsten Supply Constraints and Defense Demand
With the ceasefire in the Middle East, a new phase may emerge: increased rearmament. The arsenals in the US, Israel, and the Gulf states have been severely depleted. How quickly the replenishment succeeds is likely to depend heavily on the supply of critical raw materials. And in many cases, China, as a de facto monopolist, holds significant influence. One essential metal is tungsten. It is used not only for ammunition and missiles but also, for example, in the semiconductor industry. In this sector, genuine supply bottlenecks appear to be looming. Major Japanese companies are, in any case, warning of this. Against this backdrop, it is not surprising that the price of tungsten has risen from USD 900 to around USD 3,000 per metric ton unit (MTU) this year alone. Nor is it surprising that Almonty Industries is a real analyst favorite. The tungsten producer is positioned for strong earnings growth.

A USD 631 Billion Market – Rheinmetall, NEO Battery Materials, and BYD Lead the Battery Boom
The global energy transition has a quiet but powerful driver: the battery. No longer merely a storage device, it has become the strategic core of mobility, defense, and grid stability. By 2026, geopolitical tensions surrounding raw materials are intensifying, while innovations such as solid-state and sodium-ion cells are reshaping the technological landscape. Those who act decisively now can secure a competitive edge in an industry expected to grow to over USD 630 billion by 2035. However, not all players will benefit equally—success will depend on execution strength, material innovation, and the ability to scale quickly. These are precisely the qualities embodied by Rheinmetall, NEO Battery Materials, and BYD.

Markets Rally After Ceasefire: RENK, Vonovia, and Gold Gem Kobo Resources in focus
Global capital markets reacted with great relief yesterday to the ceasefire in the Middle East. While oil prices fell sharply, equities and precious metals moved higher. The gold price above USD 4,800 per ounce could act as a catalyst for Kobo Resources. The explorer has just completed a capital increase and published positive drilling results. The expected resource estimate could lead to a revaluation of the stock. Vonovia saw a surge in its share price yesterday. However, not all analysts are convinced by the real estate group. RENK's stock has been on an upward trend for several days now. In addition to positive analyst comments, the company recently secured a multi-million-dollar contract.

Wars fuel money printing and drive inflation: Bet on gold now with Barrick Mining, Desert Gold, and B2Gold
When diplomats fail, gold triumphs. Geopolitical upheavals from the Middle East to Ukraine, along with the US-China power struggle, are shaking confidence in fiat currency. At the same time, record-high debt in Washington, Brussels, and Tokyo is suffocating national budgets. Investors are therefore fleeing to tangible assets like gold to escape inflation. Africa is taking center stage in this context. Resource-rich countries like Mali and Côte d'Ivoire attract investors with low costs and thus high returns, yet some companies still hesitate to invest there. This is precisely where a unique opportunity arises for the bold. Three gold producers stand to benefit disproportionately: Barrick Mining, Desert Gold, and B2Gold.
