Silver as a crisis investment: Silver Viper, Fresnillo, and Pan American Silver offer strategic potential, but which stock is the best?
Silver supply has not been able to meet demand for some time now, and now chaos in the Middle East is adding to the problem. Military escalation in the region has triggered a chain of events that is shaking the foundations of global supply security. The direct conflict between the US, Israel, and Iran has long since spread to the entire region, highlighting the geopolitical vulnerability of international supply chains. With the launch of the "Epic Fury" military operation and Iran's subsequent attacks on tankers in the Strait of Hormuz, the risk of prolonged stagflation for the global economy is growing. In this volatile environment, precious metals are benefiting as a strategic asset class. While investors are increasingly turning to crisis investments, Mexico, in particular, is benefiting in the silver sector, offering a reliable environment thanks to its centuries-old mining tradition and geographical distance from the current trouble spots. We present exciting stocks and focus on the hidden gem Silver Viper.

Will the Iran conflict fuel gold prices? Iamgold and Lahontan Gold stand to benefit! Novo Nordisk shares poised for a rebound?
Will tensions in Iran push gold to new highs? At the very least, the crisis currency is likely to see renewed demand, and with it, gold stocks. Iamgold demonstrates that industry does not necessarily rely on rising gold prices to generate strong profits. Expectations for the gold producer's quarterly figures were high. Can the 50% rally continue? Lahontan Gold is currently in a pivotal phase. Its historical resource of just under 2 million ounces is expected to increase following updated estimates. In addition, the construction of the first mine in the heart of the US gold region appears increasingly likely. This may be one of the last opportunities to accumulate the stock at an attractive price. By contrast, Novo Nordisk has lost considerable investor confidence. The shares appear inexpensive, but is another guidance cut looming? Some analysts believe the stock may have already found a bottom.

Repsol, Globex Mining, Hudbay Minerals – Escalation in the commodity markets
It had been building for weeks, and now it has become a reality. Israel, together with its ally, the United States of America, launched an attack on Iran. The mullah regime responded with counterstrikes, further escalating the situation. The markets reacted with panic. The price of gold rose by more than 3%, while oil shot up by double digits. Should the conflict widen, and with the Strait of Hormuz already closed, severe disruptions are looming, particularly in the oil market, which is likely to lead to further price explosions.

Commodity investments: Why Globex Mining is the hidden gem next to Barrick Mining and MP Materials
The global economy is undergoing a fundamental shift from an era of free trade to an era of scarcity. Commodities are no longer mere trade goods, but instruments of national security and expressions of geopolitical power. The US government's announcement that it will create an exclusive commodity trading bloc demonstrates this. At the same time, the International Energy Agency (IEA) has heralded the age of electrification, in which demand for copper, rare earths, lithium, and antimony is rising to historic highs due to the expansion of global data centers for artificial intelligence and the decarbonization of industry. S&P Global forecasts a copper deficit of 10 million tons by 2040. China continues to control over 50% of refined copper production and dominates the supply of 19 out of 20 critical minerals. This concentration is forcing Western countries and investors to rethink their strategies. We present options that have received little attention so far.

Beijing's silver bomb is ticking: Silver Viper Minerals, Infineon, and JinkoSolar in the big winners check
The stage is set for one of the most spectacular commodity conflicts of the decade. For the sixth consecutive year, demand is outstripping supply in silver, but this time the bottleneck has a geopolitical face. Beijing's export restrictions threaten to cut off up to half of the silver supply for Western industry. In this fractured market, three companies show how differently strategies can play out in the face of the crisis: Silver Viper Minerals is betting on new discoveries in Mexico, Infineon requires silver, but only to a small extent, and JinkoSolar is pushing forward the replacement of the precious metal in production.

Gold boom in 2026: Be on the right side with Newmont, Kobo Resources, and B2Gold
Gold is experiencing an unprecedented surge, driven by geopolitical turmoil, a sustained run on gold by central banks, and eroding confidence in fiat currencies. This perfect constellation has pushed the price to record levels and is creating an exceptional environment for select mining companies. Mining giant Newmont, exploration specialist Kobo Resources, and growth producer B2Gold are in focus.

Antimony instead of dependence – Antimony Resources stands to benefit from the China risk
Geopolitical tensions are increasing, and with them, the West's dependence on China for critical raw materials is becoming increasingly apparent. Metals such as antimony are indispensable for industry, technology, and security, yet are barely produced in Western countries. Trade conflicts and political risks are turning this concentration into a strategic vulnerability. While the US and Europe are urgently searching for alternative supply chains, specialized resource companies in stable jurisdictions are gaining in importance. Antimony Resources could be one of the beneficiaries of this shift. With its high-grade Bald Hill project in Canada, the Company is positioning itself as a potential building block for an independent Western antimony supply.
